The Job I Wish I Had

What do you wish your job was?

 

Here's the thing. I've never been a fan of people calling motherhood a 'job'. Yes, all you mothers can throw rocks at me or whatever, but it really bugs me when that term is used. It's not a job. It's a choice, a calling. So I can't use motherhood as an answer. And so now I'm not really sure why I felt the need to explain that...

 

Anyway. Job. I really wish I were a pop star. Being able to sing in front of thousands of people and hear the cheers of the crowd. That would be awesome, and my choice of a job.

Money

How much money is in your wallet?

{2012}

 

I don't think I have any money in my wallet. Maybe a few cents? Why people carry cash now days, I really don't know. Cards are so much easier.

Christmas Season

What are you most looking forward to this Christmas season?

{2012}

 

I love everything about Christmas season. The lights, the snow, the music, the giving, everything except the shopping and madness that sometimes exists. I'm looking forward to getting our Christmas tree up too. I love sitting in the dark with the Christmas lights on. Its my favorite.

Self Conscious

I feel most self-conscious when...

{2012}

 

...people ask me personal questions. I just don't like it. Unless you're one of my really good friends, I just have a hard time talking about myself...

 

Also lately I've been a bit self conscious about my face. Dang skin tightening. Plus the cold is not a good combo! I'll survive.

5 Words/Phrases

List five words/phrases that make you giggle.

{2012}

 

It's so weird when I get asked this, because I know we have a million things we say, but when put on the spot, I can't think. But one that pops into mind is a Jimmy Fallon parody of 'What Makes You Beautiful'. You'll have to listen to it to get the full effect. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWQoiOBnqWA
