    Wee Bit Wednesday on Thursday

    {one} have you ever been stuck in an elevator?

    Um…no. I’d be a basket case.


    {two} have you ever ridden on an elephant?

    YES!!  At the MN Renaissance Festival about…

     Well…lets just say a long time ago.


    {three} have you ever met a well known celebrity?

    A couple people I went to high school with are semi-famous now…

    but they were just typical kids back then.


    {four} do you have any food allergies?

    Yes…chocolate….doesn’t stop me though. 

    I just sneeze my head off for a minute or two

    then its all good. 🙂


    {five} do you know how to sew?

    Yes…I wing it most of the time though…I’m not good with patterns and instructions.


    {six} did you get an allowance when you were young?

    No. I did start getting paid when I mowed our couple acres of yard though…of course, my payment was directly deposited into my SAVINGS ACCOUNT.


    {seven} how often do you fill up your gas tank?

    Maybe once a month…I don’t drive much.


    {eight} have you ever been stung by a jelly fish?

    Um ..no…I don’t really care for the ocean. Too many things that can eat you in there.


    {nine} have you ever been robbed?

    It’s funny…a long time ago, my VW rabbit was broken into…

    everything from the glovebox was on the front seat…

    they took NOTHING…I guess I didn’t have anything good.


    {ten} what is the worst haircut you’ve ever had?

    Hmmm…it would either be that haircut my cousin gave me when I was 4 and she was 5.

    She tied me to a chair….seriously. 

    We stuffed my hair into a Kleenex box…yeah, like that would hide it.

    Or 

    maybe the time I thought I could give myself a haircut. 

    You see, my mom was a beautician so I figured I could do it. 

    Yeah…not so much… I went I to get it fixed and said that a “friend” did it. 

    I couldn’t confess that I’d been so dumb.
