Bump Bump Bump -- it's a Thursday Thunk

Courtesy of Thursday Thunks!

1. What brand & flavor of toothpaste do you use?
Colgate Total. Dentist endorsed. Grew up with Crest. Always wanted to use Close Up, since it seemed like the “cool” toothpaste. So now, as an adult, I’m a Colgate user.

And that is undoubtedly more than you ever wanted to know about me and my dental hygene.

2. What is your earliest memory?
Being lifted up by my dad to look at the Thanksgiving turkey roasting in the oven – I was four. This speaks volumes – all about the food from the very beginning.

3. Hot Dogs or Hamburgers?
Love them both. Hot dogs are better at sporting events; burgers are good, well, anytime. If cooked to my specifications (rare – yeah, I know.)

4. If you could bring any one famous person back to life, who would it be?
JFK. So much unmet potential.

5. What is one thing we would always find in your fridge... what one thing would we never find?
Always: water. Drink it by the gallon
Never: tofu. Just can’t do it.

6. Did you have to go and look for the answer of #1?
Heck no. So there.

7. Why don't watermelons grow on trees?
Only Mother Nature knows for sure…

8. What is something that you own that you should probably just throw in the trash, but you never will?
I have a pair of maternity shorts – black sweat suit material – that are SO soft and comfy and roomy and ugly as sin. But they’re part of my “confort clothes.” NEVER wear them outside the house (not even to the trash can), just so you know.

9. I push you into a room and lock the door. I leave you there for 6 hours. The walls are chalkboards and in the middle of the room there is a box of colored chalk. What will be written/drawn on the walls when I let you out?
First of all -- SO rude to push anyone into a room. Someone needs to work on their people skills.
Now, in answer to your question: really bad poetry; really bad drawings; and/or a chapter in my novel.

10. When was the last time you changed the oil on your car?
If you is the operative word in this equation, then the answer is never.

11. In your extended family, who has been married the longest?
My parents – 47 years in June.

12. Name one thing that is so normal to you now that someone who was your age 50 years ago would think was abnormal.
The internet. Sometimes I’m still a little in awe over how interconnected the world is now

13. Have you ever wanted someone or something so bad that it hurt?
Yep.

14. What do you dip your French fries in?
Ketchup, unless there’s mayo about – then a ketchup/mayo sauce combo.

15. What was the last picture that you took?
A big ass turtle I encountered during my workout yesterday – he was doing his thing, looking for food, being cool.
