Five Question Friday

I love Five Question Friday.  It's like an instant post, which is a good thing on Friday.  I'm busy today.  I have about three hours from the time I leave school until hubby gets here.  In this time, I have to pick up something from the bakery, make a quick stop at the mall, make dinner, get my walk/jog in, and grab a shower.  Enough rambling from me let's get to the questions.



1. Where do you hide the reeeally good snacks?
Well, seeing as we don't have kids, I don't have to hide the snacks.  I might need to start hiding them from myself, though.  Seriously I have been reducing the snacks I buy so that I won't eat them.  Since I am trying to get my exercise routine going, I have been trying to eat a healthier snack.  Right now I am eating a lot of bananas to reduce the leg cramps I've been getting.  I also really like the thin little granola bars that have dark chocolate on the bottom.  They are so yummy!

2. Do u keep your vehicle clean or am I the only one who has things falling out of their van?
Two out of our three cars are kept pretty clean, the two I actually drive.  Now of course they get the occasional receipt or other miscellaneous trash left in there, but are cleaned out regularly.  Hubby's old mustang on the other hand, is full of trash most of the time.  He drives it to work, to school, and on the drive to NWA so it gets trash, food wrappers, empty coke cans, and napkins left in it.  It gets cleaned out when I tell him it really needs to be done.  The good news for me is that I don't have to ever ride in it.

3. Have you ever been to Vegas?
Yes, I went with one of my friends about 10 years ago on Spring Break.  We had a nice time and stayed at a couple of different hotels on the strip.  We didn't gamble hardly at all, instead spent our time watching the free entertainment at the casinos and looking around.  I would love to go back, but not to gamble.  The casinos are amazing to look at; some even have really nice art to look at.  I would also love to see Celine Dion live and take in a Cirque du Soleil show (I love the one at Disney World).  I also wouldn't mind going to the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop (from Pawn Stars).
 
4. Warm room light blankets or cold room warm snuggly blanket?
 I would rather have a cooler room so I can get under all the warm covers.  We tend to keep the house kinda chilly, especially when I'm with hubby.  He is like a human heater.  If we kept the house too warm we would be sweating.  Yuck!
 
5. What is the worst airplane/flying experience you've ever had?
Umm, let's see...I've never really had a bad experience on the airplane.  No major turbulence or scary landing.  But, I did have a bad experience in an airport once.  It was on my trip to Vegas.  We went to Vegas in March of 2002, which was pretty soon after 9/11 so they had a lot of security in the airports.  We flew from Memphis, which is an international airport so they had the scary military guys standing around with the big, scary guns.  We were 21 and 22 year girls, so I'm sure they seemed worse than they really were.  We waited in line to go through security.  Apparently we looked threatening or some because they pulled us and our carry-ons aside and took us behind a curtain thing.  The searched our bags, made us take our shoes off, and swabbed our feet for explosive residue.  That totally freaked me out.  We checked out fine and were allowed to go on our way.  Thank goodness the return flight was uneventful or I might have sworn off flying forever.
 
Have a great weekend!

  1. haha I'm with you on the hiding snacks from myself!! I wish I had a good hiding place from me! :) Our van is pretty messy...right now it's not too bad, but it almost always has food/trash in it because I guess I'm actually a pig instead of a person. My mom once told me she found it hard to believe I was OCD about germs whenever she got in my car...and my brother cleaned it once for me (I mean, took it apart and got in every crevice!!) and said it was like a homeschooling science project what I was growing in there. Yuck. :)
    I hope you had a good weekend, celebrating with your family!!
