For some strange reason, when typing out the title of this post, I hit the date as ’07.
Something’s wrong. Maybe too much songwriting here lately.
Ok!
Hi!!!
Let’s get this party started, shall we?
Rules: Answer the last, ask the next. First commenter will answer the starting question below, then leave one for the next person. mkay?
STARTING QUESTION: Have you been naughty or nice? 
Advertisement
A: define naughty.
Q: do you make a Christmas wish-list for your loved one(s)? or do you just hope they pick up on your subtle hints?
hahaha
A:I don’t make a list, my dad calls me a ” cheap date” meaning I’m usually happy with whatever…except this year I DID tell mom I wanted ” Houston” siesta trip for my present:)
Q: When is Mandy going to be in Georgia?
A: Too soon.
Q: Christmas tree: cut your own, from a lot, or plastic?
A: Plastic
Q: What are your Christmas traditions?
A: Open presents as early as possible. (I’m a brat.)
Q: Wrapping paper: funky or traditional? or none at all?
a: funky.
q: how long do you keep your christmas tree up?
A: Just as long as it takes for me to get motivated to take it down.
Q: hot or cold?
a. Hot. Warm evening when you can hang out on the patio until midnight in shorts…oh how I already miss summer
q. hot chocolate, tea or coffee??
A: none of the above. i choose chai.
Q: who makes you laugh the hardest?
(Isn’t Chai a combo of tea & coffee?)
A: There are rare moments in life when I seem to have an overdose of happy-chemicals in my brain. And I can get the giggles. Almost like a short-circuit or something in there… Stuff that is only moderately funny can just strike me in a way that’s… not normal. Yeah. I think I need to see a shrink.
Q: Starbucks or Panera?
pretty sure there’s no coffee in chai. but it is tea! you both lose. guess that makes me the winner! go me!
no coffee in chai … it’s basically a spiced tea. Mmmmm….chai….
A: Probably being in the midst of my Mom and her two sisters. My belly aches from laughter for days.
Q: Favorite Christmas CD? (Nate and I are SLOWLY trying to build our collection!)
(uh. I think we were both on my blog at the same time. hi)
A: The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole
Q: For you, just you, what gift are you really wanting this year?
A: A Starbucks’ gift card. (I’m easy to please)
Q: Starbucks or Panera?
A: panera for a meal; starbucks for a drink.
Q: what’s your big-ticket christmas wish list item??
A:
in fantasy world: a piano.
in real world: a keyboard that feels like a piano
more likely to get: an external hard drive…maybe.
Q: Do you celebrate Advent?
A: Advent? What’s that?
Q: What’s the weirdest gift you ever received?
(Bajan – Advent is the season leading up to Christmas (4 weeks) in the Christian calendar year – kinda like Lent is the season leading up to Easter. A lot of Christian circles celebrate this period in the year as a time of repentance/fasting, in anticipation of Jesus’ coming again.)
A: An engagement ring. Seriously… It blows me away to think that my man loves me so much – and the ring is a symbol of that love.
Q: Favorite Starbucks drink? (I was just there. mmm…)
A: Upside down caramel macchiato, one pump mocha
Q: Favorite restaurant?
A: trattoria del’arte in NYC. (i love that i get to answer that, knowing you have a reservation to go there SO SOON! iEnvy. oh, and as another sidebar… how do you even discover a drink like that?!?! seriously!)
Q: usually asleep before or after midnight?
I can’t believe *how* soon it is…hehe
And drinks like that are only possible with the help of a coffee guru friend
A: I try to at least be in bed by midnight.
Q: Do you need sound to fall asleep? If so, what?
A: YES YES YES. I need some sort of white noise – like a fan or something. Hence, I sleep like a baby on planes.
Q: What was the first car you owned?
A: 1966 Oldsmobile Ninety-eight. Seafoam with green plaid interior…it sounds weird, but it actually works. His name is Tucker.
Q: Can you drive a manual car?
A: sho nuff! how well i drive it is another story!
Q: christmas tree. real or fake?
A. Fake (but I live in a hot country…real ones die before you can put them up…)
Q. Have you ever done Christmas in the southern hemisphere?
A: No, but I’d LOVE to!
Ok. That’s it for this week. Y’all go do something productive today.
