When the weather was still nice (I miss Summer already!) we were making it a point to get out and about every weekend before it got cold and gross out. It’s not quite cold and gross yet, although it’s getting close, I’m trying to come up with a lot of fun activities that are indoors, like going to Monkey Joe’s play gym or even the Adventure Science museum again.

Lo loved when we went the first time! Her favorite parts were crawling around the model digestive system and playing with the steel drums they had for a while.

What are some of your favorite indoor activities?

Friday 5: Repellent

What’s something you enjoy eating that many others would be grossed-out by?
I used to gross kids at the lunch table out with my sardines, but it’s been so long since I’ve had any I might be grossed out, too! Pickles or sushi, maybe?

Which of your personal traits is most likely to make others want to avoid you?
I can be really shy and sometimes it comes off like I’m just a bitch who doesn’t want to talk to you.

If you could wear a bracelet that had the power to keep certain kinds of people away from you, what kind of people would you repel?
People who are loud and obnoxious.

We are all capable of overcoming our biases, of course, but what’s a physical trait (in others) that pretty much turns you off?
I can’t really think of one other than bad hygiene? I don’t think that counts, though.

When you feel a case of the blues coming on, what do you do to fend off the bad feelings?
Dance and sing at the top of my lungs.

Are you wearing purple?!

I sure am! Not many people knew about spirit day today so I was one of the few, but I will wear it proud!!

I just got a huge craving for chips and salsa. I wish store bought chips were half as good as the kind you get in restaurants like Las Palmas or Chuy’s. I’d say Baja Fresh if the one we had downtown hadn’t disappeared. I say Chuy’s because they pretty much stole Baja’s chip recipe, it’s obvious.

I’m ready for this lame day to be over. It’s been dragging for me. I have to make a stop at the store to buy a new xbox headset because I managed to drop and break ours last night. D’oh!

I’m exhausted today. I don’t know how I’m still awake right now. I’ve been up browsing engagement rings (don’t even ask me why; I’ve already got one that I love!) and trying to decide if I want to attempt staying up to start an account with Verizon so I can pre-order the new iphone tomorrow, or if I should try my luck at an upgrade with at&t.

I’m leaning toward Verizon at this point because it’s faster and I hear you get better coverage, but that means I’ll have to pay $175 to cancel with at&t… but at the same time, do I really want to be stuck with a slower carrier for two more years?

I just can’t decide! I want someone to decide for me, but so far no one has volunteered Oh my first word problems, let me show you them.
