The Woman Wonders

Friday Five Movie Edition

1. What would you say is your favorite movie genre?

Tough one for me, I love romantic comedies, thrillers/dramas, regular comedies, and inspirational sport movies.

2.  For a 7:30 movie, do you show up at 7, 7:15, 7:30, or 7:45?

ALWAYS WAYYY EARLY. Half an hour early almost all the time.

3.  Do you prefer the front, middle, or back seats at the theater?

We ALWAYS ALWAYS get the back row, the last two seats, next to the aisle. We show up at 7 to make sure we get them lol. There is more room in those two seats and you can get up and go the bathroom without bothering anyone. Although now that I think about it, we never ever go to the bathroom during a movie.

4.  Movie popcorn or candy?

I'm not into popcorn at all, so probably candy. Cherry Nibs or Reese's Pieces.

5.  In a given year, how many times do you think you see a movie in the theater?

Probably on average 12 times. Every month or so Kevin and I try to have a date together, which usually involves dinner and a movie. We don't rent movies that often and we don't have any of the premium movie channels, so the theater is usually the only time we see movies.

BONUS QUESTION

6.  Would you ever go to a movie alone?

I have never been to a movie alone but I am not opposed to it.

I would LOVE to hear from the Friday Five Gang and any and all new people!

Let's make this fun!

Hope you all have a wonderful holiday weekend!

Friday Five

1.  If you HAD to give up either coffee or soda for the rest of your life, which one would you choose to give up? I would definitely choose to give up coffee. I couldn't live without Diet Soda for the rest of my life (okay I COULD but I don't want too!) and I rarely drink coffee. I don't really care for hot coffee and I can live without cold/icy coffee.

Friday Five

1. Name one movie that you have seen recently (in theater or a rental) that was SO BAD that you wish you had never seen it.  War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise. OMG, SOOOOOOO BAD, ........ my opinion of course.

2.  Do you enjoy mint flavored ice cream and/or chocolate? No on both.

3.  What time do you normally eat breakfast? The kids always wake me up early, I usually eat between 6 -7 am, if I wait too long my blood sugar will get too low with my gestational diabetes.

4.  Are you more of a city person or a country person? CITY for sure. I can only handle a country environment for a little while otherwise I go a little crazy, I thrive off of being around A LOT of people.

5.  Is it soda, coke, or pop to you? Soda for sure. Diet soda to be exact.

Give it to me good!

*grin*

Happy Weekend to you all!

Friday Five

1. This summer are you wearing more capri's or shorts? Capri's this summer but hopefully by next summer when I am no longer pregnant AND thinner, I will wear more shorts and know I look HOT in them *grin*. I have my eyes on these shorts!

2.  Do you think Owen Wilson is totally cute or not so cute? NOT SO CUTE. Not cute at all. My cousin on the other hand thinks he is HOT!

3.  Have you ever been to a funeral? Yes, unfortunately, I have been to several funerals. Too many to count actually. The hardest funerals included my boyfriend, father, and paternal great grandmother.  Like I said there are too many to count. I am always shocked when I hear that someone my age or older has never been to a funeral. They are very very blessed.

4.  What is your weather forecast for today? Today, it is FINALLY not going to be 100 plus degrees. Thank GOD. All week long, it's been over 100 degrees. Today, I think we are finally going to be in the "normal" range for the Midwest, the mid 80's. YAHOOOOO!!!! Now if we could get it to NOT rain, we could have lots of fun at the park today.

5.  What is a common late night snack for you? I try to stay away from late night eating but when I do, it is normally a small bowl of cereal. I rarely eat past 6 or 7pm.

Give me your 5 now pretty please!

I would LOVE to hear from A LOT of you out there!

Remember ALL OF YOU make Friday Five fun!

Happy Weekend and TGIF!

To Croc or Not to Croc, That is the Question (Edited)

I'm gonna do something a little different this week for Friday Five. Instead of five questions, I am only going to ask you one. One VERY VERY VERY important life or death question. Are you ready? You can handle one question right?

I want to know YOUR opinion on Crocs ---

It's summertime and I am seeing them all over the place. Parks, malls, grocery stores, and yes even FANCY restaurants. It seems as though when it comes to Crocs, people either LOVE THEM or HATE THEM. I want to know where YOU stand. I KNOW you have an opinion and I want to hear it.

I won't be able to sleep at night until I know YOUR opinion. Kidding on the whole sleeping thing, it's the side sleeping that is killing me, but YES I want to know what YOU think of Crocs.

I would LOVE to hear from my regular Friday Fivers AND anyone with an opinion about Crocs, most people DO have an opinion.

Click BELOW to see whether or not I love them or hate them!

Friday Five

1. Have you ever read The Da Vinci Code? If not, do you think you ever will? No, I haven't but my dh has and he LOVED it. I may see the movie someday.

2.  If you walked into Victoria Secret right now, what would you buy if you HAD to buy something? I would probably buy some lovely perfume (I LOVE ME SOME PERFUME!!!) or I would buy a BIGGER bra, I AM pregnant after all! These babies aren't shrinking let me tell ya! It would be pointless to buy anything that even resembles clothing because hello I am expanding by the minute! lol.

3.  If you walked into Starbucks right now, what would you buy if you HAD to buy something? Anything sugar free for my GD and something in vanilla or chocolate flavor if possible.

4.  If you had a full weekend ALL TO YOURSELF, meaning no spouses OR kids, would you

a. Die from shock

b.  Miss them like crazy and cry yourself to sleep at night

c.  Watch lots of chick flicks and catch up on lots of reading

d.  Party BIG TIME with your girlfriends

I would C, watch lots of movies and read some and just TOTALLY CHILL, AWWWWWW. I can't exactly PARTAAAYYYY in my current condition. I WILL be going down soon to see VJ, can't wait! I will let her party for me while I sip on virgin margaritas and eat sugar free cookies lol! I will also have to try very VERY hard to not pee my pants when we laugh! And let me tell you, we laugh, laugh, and do more laughing. I am in SERIOUS trouble! Can't wait! If I weren't pregnant, I would most certainly do a combo of c and d! Chill and party!

5.  Do you think Matt Lauer of the "Today" show is hot/sexy/attractive? Why yes I do! *GRIN* I think he is attractive and sexy in his own way. I LOVE a smart man, or at least a man who seems smart. BTW, like Denzel Washington as a HDH it was very hard to find a decent picture of Matt, he looks MUCH BETTER on TV than he does in still camera shots.

You know the drill my lovelies, give me your 5 now pretty please!

I would love to hear from you!

Have a GREAT weekend everyone! It's going to be a busy one for us!

Friday Five

Thank you all so very much for your sweet comments regarding my 17 week belly shots below! You all ROCK and you sure know how to put me at ease about posting them! 

1. Are you more likely to get candy or popcorn at the movies? We ALWAYS get a box of candy to split. I think once or twice in 11 years together we have gotten popcorn at the movies.

2.  At a restaurant are you more likely to get an appetizer or a dessert? We rarely get an appetizer and sometimes split a dessert. We BOTH have an insane sweet tooth, hence the candy at the theater. If we split an appetizer, we wouldn't get a dessert, wayyyyy too much food!

3.  Find out gender of baby at ultrasound or wait to be surprised at birth? We found out with both Nathan and Austin and we hope to find out on Monday morning what our third is. I still say a boy *GRIN*

4.  Steak, chicken, or neither? Tough one for me, I'm not much of a meat eater. Normally when I'm not pregnant, I would say skinless boneless chicken breast but I haven't been up to eating chicken lately so I guess I would say steak, though I rarely eat it.

5.  Marinara or Alfredo sauce for pasta? Definitely marinara sauce for me, not really into Alfredo.

I just realized I have 4 food related questions and 1 pregnancy related question this week, how funny! They do sorta go together! Whether you are pregnant and eating everything in sight or not able to eat anything at all.

This weekend we will be anxiously awaiting Monday's ultrasound and Saturday we will be going out of town for my old college roommate's daughters birthday party. Not sure what Sunday will bring.

Have a GREAT GREAT GREAT weekend everyone!

PS Be sure to check out these cute shots of the kids from the other day! And find out why I think I will survive this summer! *GRIN*

Friday Five

1.  Would you consider yourself an EBAY rookie or an EBAY veteran? Rookie for sure, I don't think I have ever been on EBAY, can you even believe it?! It's just not my thing I guess.

2.  Do you know how to drive a stick shift? NOOOOOO!!!!!! My older step brother sorta tried showing me how to drive one back when I was a teenager but we had no success and well I haven't tried since!

3.  Do you chew gum very often? YES! I always have an insane amount of gum in my purse at all times. My favorite gum of all time is Orbit gum in Sweet Mint, so damn good! Not too strong and not too light and the flavor lasts FOREVER PEOPLE! Gum has been my savior at times with this pregnancy, it has helped with my gagging issues a lot!

4.  After walking into a bookstore, which book area are you most likely to approach first? For me it is definitely either New Releases or Bestsellers, I can't help myself! After that it is the self help/inspirational area or the area dealing with social issues.

5.  Do you have any bad computer habits? YES!!!!!! I always save crap to the desktop and well it almost always looks hideous! I don't clean it up nearly as often as I should and I know it must drive DH crazy! lol!

Friday Five

1. What kind of shampoo are you using right now? Loreal Vive , I can't believe it's NOT Pantene!

2. Would you call your outside fridge door clean or cluttered? Be honest! Clean! The bottom half has some stickers on it from the kids but the top is clean.

3.  Are you more likely to be early, right on time, or late? Be honest! Definitely early, always been that way. ALWAYS.

4. If you were eating a salad right now, what kind of salad dressing would you use? Light or fat free Western or French dressing is my favorite.

5. Which blog feature of mine is YOUR very favorite and which one is YOUR LEAST favorite? Use the following list when considering your fave and least favorite ---

Blast from the Past ( I know it's been awhile since I did a BFTP but it's still something I always think about doing from time to time )

Friday Five

Hump Day Hottie

Tuesday Treasure

Thursday Thirteen

I PROMISE that I won't be offended AT ALL with your answer to number 5. After all I am asking YOU to tell me. I am considering getting rid of a few of them for the summer but I am having a hard time deciding which ones to ax for awhile. Having 4-5 blog features a week makes it hard to find time to post "regular" and "real" posts, especially now that we are spending most of our time outdoors. If you don't feel comfortable answering number 5 or aren't sure which is your fave and least fave, you can skip it and just anwer the other four questions. I would LOVE the feedback though.
