Inquiring Minds Part 1

You asked, and I answered...

(and thank you for asking!)

Lets see.....I know a lot about you already. Do I want to know something serious or funny? How about...If you HAD to, to pay for IVF :), would you be a stripper, clean toilets in a homeless shelter, clean meth houses out or become a Hollywood double for nude scenes only? K J and the Kids

Hm, this is actually an interesting question. Leave it to you to make me think about something I wouldn't normally think about! Okay, let's break it down one by one.

1) I am not opposed to stripping, per say, but I have to say that I don't think I'd make a whole lot of money in this field which would be a problem if I was working purely for tips. I think I would make myself a masked character, so that would take care of the little problem of my students' fathers recognizing me at the other job. My vote - a possibility, but only after some sort of breast enhancement surgery to increase my stripping tips.

2) Now cleaning toilets is the most disgusting jobs on the face of the earth. Frankly, I don't even clean the toilet that Is.aac uses on a regular basis - I make him do it! Considering that he takes at least one shower a day and I know for the most part where his ass has been and I still won't even clean HIS toilet, cleaning the toilets used by many people I don't even know would be out of the question. My vote - no way.

3) Cleaning meth houses is also something I'm not sure I could stomach. Literally. From what I understand, contaminants remaining in meth labs may pose health threats to whomever is exposed to them. It would be my luck (and we all know how "lucky" I am) that said contaminants would find their way to my rapidly diminishing egg supply and mutate/destroy the few good eggs I've got left. In the end, I'd have the money for IVF but mutated eggs, which we all know is a combo that does not for a good IVF make. My vote - no way.

4) Now this last option seems doable. I think I could become a Hollywood double for nude scenes only. Really. Hear me out on this one. If I was the double for a Hollywood star, all you would see in the movie would be my body, no face. That would prevent unwanted attention from my work because no one would have to know I had a second job. Also, my body would be matched to the starring actress! Pay me for being naked, but blame all my problem areas on her. As I see it, this could be a win - win situation. My vote - the winner!

These next four questions are from The Captain's Wife:

What order do you shower? I love taking super hot showers. A lot of the time I do some of my best thinking in the shower. No one is demanding my attention. It is nice to be able to focus on myself for those ten to fifteen precious minutes! When I am in there, I always wash in this order: shampoo and rinse my hair, condition hair, wash face, rinse hair, put clippy in hair to get it out of the way while I wash the rest of my body (which is funny because I don't have that much hair!), wash arms, chest, and back, shave armpits, wash legs, butt and lady parts, and finally I wash my feet. If I am going to shave my legs (a big IF nowadays), I then add a little more soap to my legs and shave them last. Hm. That was far too detailed, wasn't it? I have no shame.

When folding laundry, and items are inside out do you correct them or fold them while inside out? For my own clothes, I don't care if most things are inside out or not when I fold them. I do make sure my socks are right side out, though. For the boys' clothes, I always make sure they are right side out when I fold them, and I have a certain way they HAVE to be folded. The long sleeve shirts are folded with the sleeves folded in and the shirt folded one time in half. The short sleeve shirts are folded like you find in a department store. I have no idea why I do it that way, but I do. I get royally ticked at Is.aac if he doesn't fold them that way, too!

Do you have any OCD tendencies? Um, yes. See the question above as an example. :-) Well, actually, I like to say I am particular about certain things.

What is your all time favorite movie, one that you can watch over and over and begin it and end it at any point. I have a few movies that I will watch over and over again. I am sort of embarrassed to admit what they are, though. I watch "Fifty First Dates," "Never Been Kissed," "Love Actually," and "Legally Blonde" every time they are on television.

What would your dream vacation be? (Money is no object! Work is not a problem!) Cathy

This was actually a hard question for me to answer. I don't think I ever really let myself think like this. It is almost like I've told myself that it won't happen, so why spend time thinking about something that I'll never get.

When I was younger, I used to always say that I wanted to go to Europe and see all of the beautiful sights. I wanted to do the touristy things and go to the touristy places and just enjoy. I thought it would be so cool to say that I had the chance to do what everyone else did.

Now that I am older, my perspective has changed. I no longer crave to be just like everyone else and do what everyone else has done. I'd love to take a month and tour some of the less visited places throughout Europe. While I would still like to see the big cities like Paris and the like, I would stay away from most of the main tourist spots.

I'd also like to go to Hawaii, Australia, and Ireland.

Okay, that is all for now. I'll be back with Part 2 tomorrow! This is fun!
