A Wee Bit Of Me Wednesday

 
 



YAHOO...it's time for A Wee Bit Of Me Wednesday!  I always enjoy question and answer sessions, so
this should be no exception.  If you don't want to miss out on all the fun, hop on over to Leigh Ashley's and link right up.  Easy peasy!  Alrighty, how 'bout we get started?

{One}  When was the last time you used a pay phone (if ever)?  I had to think about this one.  At first, I was going to say it was back in my college days.  Then, I remembered when my brother was in the hospital in 2002 fighting for his life, I'd call home on a pay phone and touch base with my hubby and my girls.

{Two}  Did you ever fail a subject in school?  Thankfully, no, but I sure came close in Algebra a time or two!  Math wasn't then, and still isn't, my strongest subject.  This equation makes my head hurt!


{Three}  Where do you go to get your favorite hamburger/cheeseburger?  I really LOVE the ones from Fuddrucker's.  Those buttery soft buns just melt in your mouth!  Unfortunately, we don't have one that's nearby, so I'd say Steak-n-Shake's are a close second. 



{Four}  Have you ever served jury duty?  No, but when Abby was a baby, I did get summoned for it. I was able to get out of it because I didn't have anyone who could keep her for me.  Too bad, so sad.

{Five}  How old were you when you moved out of your parents' house?  The first time was when I was about 19.  After I earned my Bachelor's degree, I moved back in with them to attend graduate school.  When I got married in my mid-20's, I moved out for good.  My poor mom was heartbroken.

{Six}  What is your favorite color to wear?  I wear a lot of neutral colors, but I feel really 'happy' when I wear yellow.

{Seven}  Do you have a pair of shoes that you wear all the time?  Right now, it's a comfy pair of brown Speedo flip flops or my running shoes.

{Eight}  Do you enjoy talk radio?  Yes, as long as it's not smutty.  I enjoy listening to Clark Howard and shows about relationship problems.  Oh, the stories people will tell!

{Nine}  If you could turn one unhealthy food into a healthy one, what one would it be?  Definitely CHOCOLATE!  Of course, dark chocolate is supposed to be good for you, right?  I love that stuff, but milk choocate isn't bad, either!

{Ten}  Who is the best speaker you've ever heard in person?  Sorry...no one in particular comes to mind...I'm drawing a complete blank!  

Hope y'all have a terrific Wednesday!

Ew. Payphones are so germy! It's been a long time since I've used one too!

I totally failed algebra. I hated math. No, it hated me. But then I ended up teaching math to 4th and 5th graders. Go figure.

I've never eaten at Fuddruckers. Can we still be friends?

I now have a craving for chocolate. Thankyouverymuch!

Oh girl! I am with you on the chocolate!!!!

I have failed several - Algebra wasn't easy for me either! I'm sure I'll be relearning it when my Princess gets to it. Oh yay (sarcasm).

Hi April
I enjoyed reading your answers today. The last time I used a pay phone was in Disney in 2006 and the phone card I bought didn't even have enough credit for me to call out of the US! Tim went to Steak-n-Shake with Lori's husband, Dad and daughter. They just had the shake and not the steak! We also had Chik-Fil-A at the airport. mmmm loved the waffle fries.

I read a while back that payphones were no longer making enough money to cover their maintainence, so they are systematically being removed from across the country. I know that here in Alaska we don't have any.

Fun post.
I failed Computers and Business Math. The teachers for these 2 classes were brothers and I just did not like them. ;)

I said Fuddruckers too, but I also love Steak-n-Shake.

And I said chocolate, along with pizza!

here's my wee bit

Oh man I am sooo with you on the Algebra thing. I just wasn't built for it.. Ha.

Ellen aka Ellie said...

I really want a cheeseburger tonight after reading through this hop.

Algebra didn't get me, but Trig nearly did. Why I had to take that to be an elementary teacher, I still can't fathom!

We don't have a steak-n-shake but have heard they are awesome.
Totally agree with the chocolate, my latest addiction is white chocolate. In any form.

I love these q and a's! Pay phones give me the heebie jeebies! I got out of jury duty because I worked for an attorney. I with ya on the shoes! Love my Yellow Box flip flops! I love the idea of chocolate being good for you! I think cheese dip, cinnamon rolls and pizza should be healthy too!

Someone has simply got to figure out a way to turn chocolate into a fruit. I'd be all over that!!

Mamarazzi said...

do they still have payphones?

i am not usually a burger and fries person but that one looks soooo yummy!!

yellow is a happy color!

jules said...

I served on jury duty about 10 years ago and I actually loved it! Weird, I know.

I think about 60 percent of my wardrobe is pink...

I'm with you totally on the chocolate. I think I could consider it a vegetable???

April, thank you for consistently visiting my blog. Since I've been blogging so long, I wanted to make sure that it didn't become "an idol" for me and that I blogged authentically and not what would bring followers.

With that being said, I'm blogging whatever suits me! I really appreciate that you stop by! :)

Honest to goodness, I cannot for the life of me remember the last time I used a payphone!!!

I listen to Mike & Mike in the morning on ESPN radio every day on the way to work!

Paula said...

MMMMM~ that hamburger picture made my mouth water, April!
Dark chocolate is definitely the best, and you made me stop and think about when was the last time I used a pay phone~ I honestly can't remember!

OMG! Yummy said...

Saying hi from SITS. Dark chocolate with a glass of red wine is absolutely good for you! Love your dogs - so cute. And your family is beautiful too. What a fun Wednesday - like the Q&A.

I totally failed college Calculus....TWICE! It caused me not to graduate with a double associate's degree. Just couldn't pass it!

We have a Fuddrucker's but haven't eaten there in a really long time. We eat at Steak & Shake quite a bit since it's 3rd shift friendly! We love places open 24 hours.
