1. You can be your ideal weight AND height (winkwink), but it is at the cost of your tastebuds. Do you do it?
I didn't even have to contemplate this...YES!! This is definitely an automatic yes. I've been at my ideal weight before and it's FANTASTIC being that thin. But as a sacrifice to being that thin I could eat NOTHING fun anyways. Only salad and chicken...so...if I had to sacrifice my tastebuds...so be it. I'm ok with my height...have such great clothes that I've spent hundreds, if not thousands altering to my munchkin leg size so I'd hate to not be able to wear them.
Although, I'd probably regret it. I remember reading a book when I was little about a boy who loved chocolate so much that he wished that everything he ate tasted like chocolate. After about a day of this *gift* he was so miserable...that would be me. But at LEAST I'd be thin!! And as my grandmother always says...nothing tastes as good as thin feels.
Pretty twisted, huh?
2. What is the most amazing thing your husband has ever said to you?
He ALWAYS, ALWAYS tells me that I look amazing (even when i know i don't) and that I'm a fabulous mom and a wonderful wife and that he loves me. It's all I ever really need to hear to make me happy. =)
3. Name one of your irrational fears.
Hmmmm...I don't know that I have any fears that I consider irrational. I spent 7 years in therapy dealing with most of my insanity...so I guess I'd say that my biggest fear would be turning out like my mother. A former party girl turned drunk/druggie/sex offender. Not my idea of a bright future. And now that I have a 10 month old daughter my biggest fear is that I don't do enough for her or that I'm not there enough for her or that I don't make her laugh enough. Even though I *know* I do and everyone always tells me that I do...I'm always worried that I'm not focusing enough on every detail and that makes me insane and I suppose fearful as well. I do my best to keep it all in check. There are days when I really miss my therapist.
4. Tell us about your most embarrassing moment.
My most hated emotion has always been embarassment. Years ago I used to get embarassed if I did something as small as tripping over the imaginary bump in the carpet in a public place. You all know what I'm talking about...that piece of carpet that a inexplicably causes you to heave forward hoping that you don't land face down at the mall or in your office cafeteria? Yeah...it's happened to you too. You look around to see if anyone saw you and if they did you look down at the ground to see if there really was something there that caused you to trip for no reason. And when there isn't anything there you start silently scolding the floor for making you trip...sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...that said...
Since becoming a mother...NOTHING embarasses me anymore. Childbirth alone is the single most humbling experience in the world. So the only time in recent days that I've been truly embarassed to the point where my cheeks turned red is when my husband figured out how to connect the Tivo to our computer in the house to scroll through all of our music and photos via the tv. It's pretty nifty actually. I can listen to any music we have on our computer via our stereo and I can review any photos we have on the nice big tv. So we had my sister-in-law and her husband over a few weeks ago for our standard Sunday night dinner and we were showing this feature off by going through old pictures of our daughter. As we were marveling at how tiny she really was when we first brought her home I had forgotten that my husband had taken a few pictures of me in the tub with her a couple of days after we came home. Clearly I was in the tub with no clothes on...days after just having a child. So needless to say, I looked like a mother manatee. So as we're scrolling through adorable infant pictures all of a sudden...in color, 32" wide...there I am...in all of my blubbery, manatee glory...on the screen. I wanted to scream....oh wait...I did scream!! And then my eyes started to water up from the sheer embarassment of the moment. And of course I can't get to the Tivo remote fast enough to get to the next photo...it seemed like an eternity that I was up on that screen. So we all sat there for a moment giggling...meanwhile...I was DYING inside. My face was burning. I tried to play it off so cool like it didn't bother me...but...ugh. It was horrible!
5. You can have any super power you want. What is it?
I would want the ability to see into the future. But as an aside to that...I would want the ability to see into the future and be able to influence my decisions based on what I already knew. I know it seems selfish...but I would do my best to only use it to steer my life and the lives of people I knew into the right direction. It would make things a lot simpler if you just knew a little more rather than having it all be a guessing game.
