50 odd things

I received this email from both Dawn and Lindsey.
I have nothing etsy to blog about today. My kids have been not feeling well, so I really have nothing tinteresting to write about. This seems a perfect opportunity to bring in the wuss out post:

50 ODD Things about you! Learn 50things about your friend, and let them learn 50 things about you!

1. Do you like blue cheese? Not especially. Even after living in France I STILL couldnt stomach it.

2. Have you ever smoked heroin? Do you think I am a complete idiot? NO!

3. Do you own a gun? Does a super soaker count?

4. What flavor do you add to your drink at Sonic? I dont eat at Sonic. If I do, I get a milkshake. Usually one involving chocolate of some sort.

5. Do you get nervous before doctor appointments? A little. Usually because I know they are going to weigh me and the doctor is going to jump on my back about complications from being overweight, especially with my family history blah blah blah. Dont really look forward to that.

6. What do you think of hot dogs? Chiciago style, fully loaded. But they have to be REAL Chicago Dogs, not some cheap Mall imitation.

7. Favorite Christmas movie? The Bishops Wife with Cary Grant and Loretta Young. Although I do LOVE the kids Rankin/Bass movies like Rudolph, frosty, santa claus is comig to town etc. Oh and the Charlie Brown Christmas is a tradition. This is a hard question.

8. What do you prefer to drink in the morning? Juice of some srt. Usually I juice oranges, grapefruit and strawberries. YUM.

9. Can you do push ups? I used to. I have poor upper body strength. I always have. I have never been very good at push ups to be quite honest.

I always get a kick out of reading these. And Sarah, you can refuse to be weighed at the doctors (and spare yourself the lecture) I always do.

Truly, it's a no win situation. According to medical charts, at 5' 10" I should weigh 136 lbs. Yeah, right.

The red head comment surprised me....I always think of you with pink hair!
