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!

1. Would you consider yourself an EBAY rookie or an EBAY veteran?
I am a veteran when it comes to buying and a rookie at selling. I want to sell but do not know the first thing about it...

2. Do you know how to drive a stick shift?
Yeah right, I have been thru a couple lessons with boyfriends. They pretty much gave up on me. I did start to kind of get it but there is no way I could do it now...

3. Do you chew gum very often? Not really, just when I think of it...

4. After walking into a bookstore, which book area are you most likely to approach first? I can't say what I would go to first besides Starbucks at Barnes and Noble. I like the new releases, travel section, childrens section, self help section, and the Christian section. I like the craft secion also! Did I miss anything?

5. Do you have any bad computer habits?
Not that I can think of besides being on it too much I guess...

[Stacy]

1. Veteran. Like I don't have enough online habbits?
2. Learned on a stick. Took out a few hedgerows in the process though. Whoopsie.

3. I chew gum when my breath smells like rot. Otherwise, I try not to. I'm afraid it will yank out my fillings. I'm turning 40 tomorrow ya know.

4. Gotta see those best sellers first. And then it's whatever they have on the desk at the register. I'm such an impulse buyer.

5. Besides being online 12 hours a day, I don't think I have any bad computer habits. I try to take off weekends though. Sometimes it's just so hard. Got. To. Check. My. Email!!

BTW- Care to share any of your lovely belly shots over on my blog?

Happy Weekend!

1. Would you consider yourself an EBAY rookie or an EBAY veteran?

Rookie, I guess, in that I've been on eBay many times, but rarely find anything I want/need and find that the prices aren't all that great, anyway, and I'm just not a fan of taking the leap of faith that what I'm buying really will be what I'm expecting and hate dealing with the return issues. I don't do much online shopping for that reason, eBay or otherwise. I'm more of a touch/smell/see/feel/try on person when I shop, I guess. The whole environment and experience of shopping counts a great deal for me, apparently.

2. Do you know how to drive a stick shift?

YES! My parents insisted that we learn to drive stick if we wanted to get our drivers licenses. I've even taught a few friends. I LOVE the control of a manual transmission, and if I didn't have kids who usually require one hand to pick stuff up while I'm driving, I'd drive a stick today.

3. Do you chew gum very often?

No, not really. I RARELY buy it, but my parents usually have a bunch laying around at their house and sometimes I'll grab a pack (or just a stick) from them.

4. After walking into a bookstore, which book area are you most likely to approach first?

Bestsellers/new releases, and then usually the craft/crochet/beads books. I'm addicted!

5. Do you have any bad computer habits?

Umm, does leaving the computer on 24/7 count as a bad habit? It goes into "sleep" mode and we often forget to actually turn the damn thing off.

[VirgoJen]

1. Would you consider yourself an EBAY rookie or an EBAY veteran?
Somewhat of a veteran, although it's been probably two years since I've been on. I used to purchased but never sold.

LOL Jen, thanks for stopping by!!!!

DUH why didn't I think of the children's section?! I am a childrens book whore lol.

LOVE. THEM.

[Jen_Jake'smom]

1. Would you consider yourself an EBAY rookie or an EBAY veteran? -- when Jake was little I bought a lot of stuff for him on ebay, even sold a few things. but it was tiresome and time consuming, so I let my account lapse. I just don't care anymore.

2. Do you know how to drive a stick shift? -- nope, I SO SUCK at it. People have tried to teach me, and I just don't get it.

3. Do you chew gum very often? -- nope. I only like gum about 30 seconds beyond when all the initial flavor from being in solid form is gone. Then I spit it out. I do like the Orbits pink gum, though, to clean up my breath after a meal. :o)

4. After walking into a bookstore, which book area are you most likely to approach first? -- children's section. I love buying Jake new books.

5. Do you have any bad computer habits? -- other than the fact that I'm ALWAYS ON THE INTERNET? LOL.
