Friday Feast

Happy First Birthday Friday Feast! May you have many, many more...


Appetizer: Approximately how many hours per day do you spend watching television?
That depends entirely on your definition of approximately and watching. If I'm feeling guilty about the number of hours, then my skills of approximating equal those of an 8-year old who has been given permission to eat "a couple" of cookies. As for watching, I would like to rationalize submit that often the television is on as necessary background noise. I'm not watching so much as listening (or even not so much listening) as I do other things.
Answer: Approximately one hour. And it's only PBS. (ha!)


Soup: What colors decorate your kitchen?
White and dirty dishes.


Salad: Name 2 brand names you buy on a regular basis, and what do you like about them?
1. Heinz Ketchup. They have smartass labels on the ketchup bottle.
2. Tampax Tampons. You never know when, in the midst of your idyllic date, you will be called upon to repair a leaky rowboat. Part Boy Scout (be prepared), part Hans Brinker (plug that hole) -- ALL woman. (Want to watch? Right click and select "save link as...")


Main Course: What is your biggest fear?
Answer: The List.
This is the scariest thing I know: An in-law type relative spent his entire life working hard, and after retirement he spent his days improving his home and working on the dreaded "To-Do" list. He finally finished all the tasks he had on his To-Do list. He joked with one of his sons that he would have a lot more time to relax, fish, and spend time with his family. He died four days later. Moral of the story: NEVER FINISH THE LIST.


Dessert: If you could wake up tomorrow and find yourself in another location, where would you want to be?
If I'm finding myself ANYWHERE, I'd better be in front of a mirror, because otherwise I'm either schizophrenic or dead.
Answer: Nothing could be finer than to be in the Outer Banks, North Carolina in the mo-or-or-ning!

Bonus Birthday Question: What's your favorite flavor of birthday cake?
Blueberry pie.

Comedy. Gold.
Btw, I love this meme (or whatever you want to call it) but fail to remember it exists until Sunday afternoons. May I do it late? Is there some way of being REMINDED?
