Yoo 330 - 7 Questions My First


I like this picture. I've been craving peanut butter and honey sandwiches. And maybe a good camping trip?

In other news, I kind of had a "I love everyone and everything!" day yesterday. On a Tuesday?? Yes, on a Tuesday. I don't know what spurred it. Nothing extraordinary happened. Actually, it should have been a downer day. But I woke up with really good perspective and it was like nothing could bring me down. No matter what the day threw at me I was the most optimistic and amiable of beings!

Rarely does this happen.

If I figure out what I did right, I'll let you know. (i did sleep up-side-down on my bed that night to be closer to the fan...i repeated this last night and am testing out that possibly theory today).

And finally, I've been wanting to do the "7 Questions" link up for a while. Nicole, seeing the questions on your blog spurred me on!

It's Gentri Lee's 7 Questions!

Starting with the silly photo.


One of my favorites of me and the Alishafriend right now. Straight from the park restroom at Goose Island. We're rocking our signature "hair on top of the head for bed" style. Ok, it's her signature, I just copy it now. But it's more comfortable to sleep with it like that! It doesn't get in your face and you don't have that awkward ponytail lump! But of course we combined this here with the "duck face" for extra cheese.

1. You are stuck somewhere you really don't want to be, do you- walk home, call a friend, or stick it out?
Hmmm, that depends. If I have to be there, I'll stick it out. I'm not opposed to walking home and I've called friends more than once in other situations. When I'm sitting at work not wanting to be there (i will not admit how often that happens...) I'll go on a walk to clear my head. (and kill time...)

2. Do you like to PLAY sports?
Absolutely yes. I get so bored watching sports. Unless it's basketball. I've never loved playing basketball. If it's basketball then I'd rather sit there playing on my phone and pretending to cheer someone on.

3. Everyone has that one "different" song that they secretly love- what's yours?
Tony Chestnut and Mousercise. I used to be a lifeguard and helped teach swim lessons during the summers of yesteryear. We'd always make the younger kids warm up on the deck to one of these. Think "toe-knee-chest-nut" and "eye-lean" and "skip". I still think that song is brilliant. And Mousercise? Mousercise. Mousercise is a motivator, don't dog it. If everyone did Mousercise every morning, the world would be a better place. (disclaimer: i don't actually do mousercise every morning. but i should.)

4. What is one thing you feel you are really good at?
Procrastinating. But who's not good at that? I'm a good eater, too. As a kid, the Kyoo mom never once had to coax me to eat. Filled with pride over that one she is....

5. A dog is running in your direction and barking loudly- what do you do?
Probably yell "Puppy!" with my hands outstretched waiting to receive it. Unless it looks like it wants to eat me. Then I'd be bracing myself to fight back.

6. Star gazing or cloud watching?
Star gazing. I'm a space nerd.

7. What time of the day do you feel the most productive?
Hands down in the morning. I wake up with a "Seize the day!" attitude. Nothing can stop me! Except early afternoon. That hits and my attitude turns to "Cease the day!". Sometimes I'll catch a second wind at night and be really productive then, too. But I never feel productive in the afternoons. If a presidential candidate was running on the platform of implementing siesta, he would firmly have my support.

Have a great day :-)

MOUSERCISE!!!!!! Ah, I have so many wonderful memories! And Tony Chestnut but those are more memories of you doing it than me almost slipping in the shower and dying because I was told to 'skip around'.

You are cracking me up! Hahahaha! Seize the day cease the day. Haha! Mousersize is the best! I had to teach a dance to tweedle dee and tweedle dum once. That song is crazy. Haha

I definitely have a mid-afternoon slump too- but, usually because I eat too much for lunch, LOL. Like you, I am an excellent eater. Something i'm quite proud of, actually :)

Happy Wednesday!

Oh Nicole, boy do I remember that! Let's be those old ladies in the nursing home doing Mousercise, ok?
