5QF- 4/23/10

I thought I'd participate in Mama M's Five Question Friday before heading off to Target with Aidan! He is busy talking to his friends on his crib mobile, so I've get a few minutes! Click the button above if you'd like to join in. :)

1. What was the first car you owned?

My first car was the rusty, untrusty Goldie T. She was definitely not a trooper. I received my license in 2000 and my car was a 1989 gold Mercury Tracer. Classy, classy! The alternator died about once a month and I think it was in the shop more t

han on the road.

Being the wannabe hippie that I was, to make up for its problems I decorated my "new" car in all the glory that is the Grateful Dead. Across the back windshield I had large stickers of the bears dancing in line, with a dead head in between. I have a picture somewhere... Oh those where the days! Here's a little sample.

2. What songs are you embarrassed to know the lyrics to?

I don't know. I love all music, so I don't really think it's embarrassing to know the words to songs... Okay, maybe a few boy band tunes I'd be hard pressed to admit knowing the lyrics (and dance moves!) to...

3. Have you ever had stitches?

Yep! When I was 5 I unknowingly stepped on a piece of metal and then walked around all day at the Zoo with it in my foot. Once it was discovered I had to go to the hospital and have them dig it out and stitch me back up. Ow! I also had some lovely stitches from my episiotomy about10 weeks ago. Hands down the most pain I've ever had to deal with.

4. What was your first job?

A lifeguard when I was 15. It was an indoor pool at a private school in my hometown and I hated it. It only lasted a few months, and then I started my "career" at Panera.. until I quit 7 years later.

5. Who is your favorite Sesame Street character?

Awww... I love Sesame Street! My favorite characters from when I was little?

Big Bird, Barkley and Snuffleupagus, of course! Whatever happened to the last two?
