Chats On The Farmhouse Porch

I took a day off of work today and did something fun.  I'll post about it tomorrow, but for tonight, we have our usual Chat. 



1.  Is there one person who can drive you nuts, even if they aren't doing anything in particular? 

 Yes.  We'd probably better just leave it at that.  But that reminds me, I learned a new German word today:

Backpfeifengesicht (n.): a face that cries out for a fist in it

2.  When you were a small child, how did you answer the question, "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

When I was very small, I said I wanted to be a nurse, because my mother was a nurse.  When I got older, I really wanted to own a cattle ranch, but I knew that wasn't realistic.  Then I said I wanted to be a veterinarian, until I realized how much schooling they had to go through.  

3.  Do you drink more sodas, iced tea, or water? 

I probably drink about the same amount of cokes and water.  Keep in mind that I'm from Texas, and we call them all cokes.  As in:  Want a coke?  Yeah.  What kind?  Dr Pepper. 

4.  My favorite flavor of iced cream is________________. 

 Mint chocolate chip.  Or maybe chocolate chip cookie dough.  I like pretty much all flavors except rocky road and tin roof. 

5.  Do you like to dance? 

*Gasp* I'm a Baptist!  Baptists don't dance!  However, back in the day, I did enjoy going to the enlisted club on Country nights and cutting a mean two step.   I was a pretty good dancer, too. 

Well, that's it for this week.  I have to go back to work in the morning, but I sure did enjoy my day off.  I'll tell you all about it tomorrow, so be sure to come back and see what I did today.

I totally didn't think twice about the "coke" comment 'cause that's what we called them growing up, too. Until coke became short for cocaine (how crazy)!!! HOPE you have a great weekend!

LOL!
Yes, I grew up baptist too. We didn't even dance during praise and worship!
I did not know that about coke in TX! Funny how areas are so different.
I hope whatever you are today it is something you like doing.
