Friday5: Pancakes

Where can you get some really good pancakes?

i’m not a big pancake eater, so i wouldn’t know? i don’t think i’ve ever eaten pancakes except the ones my mom makes.

How do you like your pancakes?

i can eat them plain, which grosses out my sisters.

What’s your theory on why restaurant waffles are so much more expensive than pancakes?

they charge per groove?

The pancake chef is going whip up a batch of the most interesting, creative pancake invention you can imagine. What will you order?

i have no idea. i guess anything you can make with the pancakes! like my son likes those alien pancakes at denny’s. be creative with the presentation and i may not care what it tastes like.

When was the last time someone made you pancakes, not counting visits to restaurants?

my mom made pancakes the other week. she makes it every time a whole bunch of us sleeps over.

Friday5: Odd Jobs

Who in your life would make a really good butler?

my cousin. she does everything for you, even if you don’t ask, and sometimes, even if you don’t want her to do it, she’ll just take whatever it is out of your hand to do it for you. she’s great at talking with people, too, so she can do the greeting at whoever’s at the door.

Who in your life would make a really good head of state?

a former colleague of mine–he is very diplomatic and listens very well when others speak.

Who in your life would make a really good TV talk-show host?

probably my aunty. she’s personable, chatty, funny, and really pretty too, which you know anyone who’s female on tv needs to be.

Who in your life would make a really good astronaut?

i think my son would be. he’s really into science and stuff, and i think he’d get a kick out of that!

Who in your life would make a really good movie director?

hmm. another former colleague possibly. although i know a lot of people who love telling others what to do, i don’t think that they’d do it praisingly or even understand how light should fall and all that.

Friday5: Isn’t It Time You Applied Yourself?

What was the last thing you filled out a written application for?

i just filled out a long, long form for financial aid for my son’s school. it’s worth it, though!

What computer application software last impressed you with what it could do?

hmmm. oh! the tech teacher was showing me this program called “remote desktop” that allows the user to keep track of what all the other students are doing on their computers. you can see what they’re doing and if they need help, you can move their cursor for them on their screen–but you don’t even have to stand up from your own computer! and if you see if someone has accidently navigated to somewhere naughty, you can drop the curtains on all the screens while you go and take care of it. it was really cool!

Where did you last apply a Band-Aid?

around my fingertip. i am always cutting or poking my fingertips. the kids always like to guess what i did now to warrant the band-aid on my finger.

What’s a rule that applies to many people in your life but not to you?

hmm, what does this mean? hmmm. i guess maybe the rule of never going to bed angry with your spouse? it only doesn’t apply to me because i don’t have a spouse, not that i believe you *should* go to bed angry. but i don’t know how many people in my life actually follow that rule, with their own spouses?

When were you last required to apply some elbow grease to something?

cleaning. ugh.

Friday5: Big Trouble

What were the events that led to your being in the most trouble with your parents ever?

i was a good girl. i never got into trouble. seriously. :)

What happened when you received your worst childhood physical injury?

hmm. i don’t think i had one that was really bad. i have little scars and things from fights with my sisters, but nothing really major.

What was the worst trouble you ever got into in school?

again. good girl here :)

the worst trouble i got in though was violating the school’s dress code. i’m pretty sure i already wrote about it somewhere. it made me mad that my friend walking alongside me had shorter culottes than i did, yet i was the one who got turned in. > :(

What kind of trouble have you been in at work?

i once got busted for typing in a bunch of george michael songs on the computer at work on a slow day, and being a dummy, saved it on the hard drive (to finish on another slow day). a person came in to do a sweep of the computer and found it. *blush*

i’ve had complaints lodged against me from several parents. i don’t know if that’s really called “being in trouble” but it sure felt like it.

How do you usually deal with the knowledge that you’re about to be in big trouble?

i totally shut down. i get super depressed. i’ll crawl under the covers and not come out. i’ll cower, and i’ll hide. i might cry. i’ll feel sick and not want to eat anything. just overall bleah.

Friday5: What It’s Like

What is your keyring like?

crowded! i have my school keys (lots), my house keys, my car keys, and an extra set of my mom’s home keys all on the same set of key rings. the key rings include a little keychain that says “anything boys can do girls do better!” :P i also have a make-your-own keychain with 2 of my favorite guys on it :) i have a clip-on pen, a beaded dolphin trinket thing from one of my students, my badgeholder, and one of those clippie things (i have no idea what they’re called). yes, very crowded, but it jingles nicely!

What is your purse/bag/briefcase like?

my purse is huge and contains a lot of junk. everyone who lifts it (like when passing it to me) always exclaims “gee! what do you have in there?!??! it weighs a ton!” well phbbbbt to you. :P i just have all the major stuff you need — wallet, brush, phone, kleenex, hand sanitizer, wipes, lip gloss, sunscreen, ds, tictacs, scissors, and pens of every variety. plus you need to hold stuff that mommies do. so it’s gotta be nice and big and roomy.

What is your wallet like?

my wallet’s a mess. i clean it out every month. still, it was embarrassing when once i took it out to pay for something for my son’s baseball thing and one of the moms commented, “you need to clean that wallet out, or i’ll do it. and if you think i’m kidding, i’m not! if that’s not clean the next time i see you, i will clean it for you.” sheesh! but it’s a hodgepodge of receipts and appointment cards and reminders and pictures. hardly any money, though. :(

What is your mousepad like?

i don’t have a mousepad! :( i used to have this real cool one, though, that was those hypercolor things, that was popular in the 80s, or 90s, whenever that was. i loved that one. i have no idea where it is now, though. i think it must still be at my mom’s.

What are the curtains in your bedroom like?

i don’t have curtains, actually; i have blinds. they’re white, and i think that’s regulation. when i was growing up, my mom made our curtains, and i had these pretty lacey white curtains. i loved the way they blew in the breeze and the shadows it cast upon the walls. (yes, i spent many an afternoon just staring at curtains. i lead such an interesting life! :/ )

Friday5: Learning

How and when did you learn to swim?

i didn’t know how to swim for a long time. my dad didn’t like the beach and since he was the only person who could drive, we rarely went to one. we didn’t live near a pool, either, so there were no opportunities to swim even if we wanted to (and i know, i know, it is an island. but my dad really didn’t like the beach). i probably still wouldn’t have learned how to swim (both my sisters still don’t know how) but i had to learn for school, where there’s a requirement for swimming. when it was painfully obvious i didn’t know how to swim while the rest of my classmates took off, it was suggested i take swimming lessons. so i made my mom sign me up for lessons at the downtown y. it was every saturday for a few months, and i was the only one who wasn’t 5 or 6 years old in that class. soooooo embarrassing. i didn’t do too well, either. i still don’t know how to tread water!

How and when did you learn to drive?

my dad taught me how to drive when i was 16. he would let me drive to school (since the car had to be moved from the street, due to a no parking zone during morning rushhour traffic). however, i did not get my license until i was 21, mostly because i hardly got to practice parking and all of that–most of it was just drive, then jump out, and then he took the car. he all of a sudden pushed me to get my license (crash course in driving/parking) when i was 21, which i thought was funny. we found out later though that he had been planning on leaving my mother for another woman, yet he felt guilty that if he left, we’d all be stuck, because he was the only driver in the family. so his pushing me to get my license was just so that it would free him to leave, and not feel guilty that we’d all never be able to go anywhere that wasn’t on a bus route.

How and when did you learn to tie your shoelaces?

i don’t remember this!!! i guess it must’ve been in elementary school, and i guess my mom must’ve taught me how! but i never had shoelaces, i hated wearing shoes. i liked clogs, jellys, slippers. if i did wear shoes, it was “kung fu shoes” or moccasins. i think i learned how to tie from the ribbons for my hair or on my dress. so yes, must’ve been my mom who taught me that.

How and when did you learn to cook?

i always liked cooking. my mom would’ve probably taught me, and i would say i was…oh, 8 or so. i was more a baker, though. but i remember in intermediate like making spaghetti sauce (from tomato sauce/paste, not prego from a jar) and things like that. by the time we graduated high school, we were expected to cook a dinner for the whole family one night a week. by that time i moved more towards cooking than baking. these days i do far more cooking than baking.

How and when did you learn to type?

i learned how to type from a typing class i took my sophomore year in high school. it was the typical a a a a s s s s d d d d f f f f asdf asdf asfd asdf type class. but it was fun :P so i took typing 2 in my junior year, and that’s when i learned to really fly the fingers :P after junior year, i had started my first job in an office so i got lots of practice typing, and i think i got up to over 90wpm :P right now i can at least type fast enough to keep up with my thoughts so that’s good enough for me! :D

What’s a pretty good sign that you should probably eat out?

well we hardly eat out; we just don’t have the funds for that. it would be nice though! instead, we just have to wait for special occasions. although sometimes i have cravings and i might go and get something to help satisfy that :P

What’s a pretty good sign that you’re going to spend more money than you should?

i’m not sure. i think i have pretty good self-restraint.

What’s a pretty good sign that someone you’ve just met is going to be a pretty good friend?

if the person is chatty enough that i don’t have to talk much, and can make me laugh and feel comfortable, then i know that person will probably become a good friend.

Friday5: Halls of Fame

A Community Service Hall of Fame has just been established in Kinder Crossing, Arizona! Who in your life will be the first to get in?

i think that would be a colleague of mine. there’s all we do for our job, plus she goes out and does those cleanup things, organizes community rallies, always attends community meetings. she’s great.

Looks like they’re breaking ground this week on Hazard Point, Maryland for the Crazy Driver Hall of Fame! Who in your life will be the first to get in?

my sister is pretty crazy. she’s already gotten into two accidents where the vehicle she was driving got smashed up pretty bad. but i do know a colleague who drives with her thighs because she’s busy eating as she drives home (who has time for lunch?). she’s been caught speeding like 80 in a 45 zone, but she always gets off because she’s cute and flirty.

Due to the avalanche of complaint letters we’ve received, we are founding the Complainers Hall of Fame and locating it in Gripe County, New Mexico. Who in your life should be enshrined first?

that would be me, probably! well, it depends who i’m with. i don’t grumble to just anybody. like some do. i’d say a lot of the parents fall in this category :/ ummm but in my life…i’d say maybe my aunty.

Clutter Point, Texas seems to be a good place for the Packrat Hall of Fame. Whom would you like to nominate for induction?

heehee a couple of my colleagues again. they’re pretty bad, worse than me!

The good folks in Mellow Creek, Alabama have raised enough money finally to open the doors to the Unstressed Hall of Fame. Who in your life is likely to cruise on into its hallowed halls as the first honoree?

hmm i don’t know anybody who doesn’t have some sort of stress. i don’t think even the newest members of our family would get that award, because it must be distressing when they can’t be fed because mom went back to work. hmmm. probably the dog. heeheehee.

When did you last cover a book?

just last summer i covered composition tablets with white contact paper so i can draw on them :)

When did you last wear an apron or smock?

it’s been a while. i’m the type who doesn’t care if my clothes get dirty, though i guess i should. but i haven’t worn one in years.

When did you last use glue?

a few hours ago :P i guess these questions aren’t really fair for me :)
