Random Dozen

I feel as if I don't have anything great to post about so here goes the Random Dozen!

1. What is your favorite Mexican dish? I love chicken rice and cheese! I don't care what you call it: Pechuga Frita, La Preferido, or Tim's Special. It's all the same to me!

2. When you were a kid, did you get started on your homework right away after school, or did you procrastinate? I procrastinated. I would start after dinner typically and do it in my bedroom with the TV on.

3. What is your favorite store for home furnishings? I love me some Kirklands! I love hitting their sales. I bought a massive painting for our living room for only $20 and it was originally over a hundred.

4. When you were young, did you like school lunches? I didn't appreciate school lunches until I got into high school. We had our pizza line, our hamburger line, our plate lunch line, and our salad line. There was always something for you and you just couldn't beat Turkey and Dressing Day!!

5. Is religion a crutch? For some people it is. Going to church and participating in church sponsored activities don't get you closer to God though. Having a relationship with the Lord is way more important.

6. In your region, what is the "big" (most popular in the community or state) high school sport? Typically it is football, except in my current town-we won the national tournament in basketball.

7. Do you consider yourself rich? No. You don't become a social worker to make money. Between being in grad school and paying back hubby's school loans we are not rich. I know that in comparison to the world we are very blessed though.

8. Which of these would you have the best chance for success in administering:

A) CPR

B) Heimlich Maneuver

C) Changing a flat tire

Probably changing a tire because I have seen it done enough times to figure it out and I have less of a chance at hurting someone while changing the tire

9. Which dance would you prefer to learn & why:

A) Salsa

B) Hip Hop

C) Waltz

D) Swing

This one is the hardest one for me to answer. I think I would love to feel confident in my Hip Hop skills. In the privacy of my own home, I'm the best hip hop dancer, but I would love to know that I looked good doing it in public.

10. What's the worst news you've ever delivered to someone?

I had to work at Walgreens on Thanksgiving day in the photo lab. A man came in and told me that some guy had called him and told him to go to Walgreens to pick up some pictures because he had something he had to show him. The pictures were of his wife cheating on him with the man who had contacted him to pick up the pictures. The husband was in tears and was laid out on my counter. I told him that he didn't have to pick up the pictures if he didn't want to and he told me that he thought he would have to have them for court. As he opened his wallet to pay for these awful photos, I noticed that he had a picture in his wallet of him, his wife, and their 2 little children. I have never felt so bad in my life.

11. Name something you learned in college that had nothing to do with classes or academics. The best memories are made while making late night trips to random locations or deciding to skip class on a sunny day to go to the park. I once skipped class while it was raining and my best friend and I put on our rainboots to go puddle jumping.

12. New variation on an old question: If there's a song in your head that just won't get out, what is your favorite (or most repeated) line in that song?

"Your love, your love, your love is my drug"
