Blog Challenge; day five.

Do you have any pets?

I do!



Meet Crackers.



And Spock.

Crackers is 16 years old and Spock is a few months. I forgot to ask his previous owner what day he was born. I got him on May 4th though, so add approx 6 weeks to that and his birthday is somewhere around the end of March.

Crackers is living with my mom but I still consider her my cat. She's skittish and playful. She likes being petted but definitely only on her terms. She hates the carrier.

Spock, is in a word, insane. He attacks you like it's going out of style. We have to shut the bedroom doors at night or else he won't leave you alone. He's woken the baby on more than one occasion. Not cool.

Blog Challenge; day four.

Favorite snack?

That's really tough.

Are we talking in general, like chips or chocolate or candy? Or specifics, like Lays Sour Cream & Onion or Oreo's or Fruit Loops?

Either way, I haven't any idea.

It depends on the day really. Some days I really crave chocolate, other days I really want chips.

I like corn twists a lot.

Blog Challenge; day three.

Do you have any vacation plans coming up?

We do, actually. Sort of.

Monday is Canada Day so we're heading to the beach for the weekend. Fireworks, sugar, staying up late, all those fun times.

This will be Bub's first time to the beach. Not sure about Princess, honestly. I feel like she's been but have no actual recollection of such events.

I'm really excited. I love the beach.

Unfortunately it means I'll need to find a bathing suit top that's equipped to handle my boobs.

Maybe I'll even get a tan!

Blog Challenge; day two.

What do you drive? What is your dream car?

While reading this you may wonder why I kept this question in here if I've already admitted to changing other questions. The answer?

Because I damn well want to.

I don't own a car, actually. I'm hoping to change that at some point next year but I need to save up some monies first.

My dream car?


But with blue stripes.

Now that's a sexy car.

Blog Challenge; day one.

Family story - how did your parents meet, how many brothers/sisters, tell us what you want.

Without consulting said parents, I am pretty certain they met while working at a pizza place. That or when they drove courier. Either one.

One brother, whom is 3 1/2 years younger than me. 6 months and 10 days to be exact. I could figure out the hours if I really wanted to, but it's 11 at night.



Moving on.

Parents divorced when I was 4 and some change. Dad moved to Alberta and my mom shacked up with a dude here in Ontario. Lived with him for roughly 7 years before they split.

As far as my primary family goes, that's as exciting as it gets. Now I live on my own with my own two Spawns, but that's a different story.
