Catching up on Friday Fives

I'm bored, and looking for any reason to not do something productive. So I went back through some of the Friday Five posts over on LiveJournal.

If you could turn invisible, what would you do with this ability? I'd become a spy.

If you could fly, how would you do it? Wings? Rocket pack? Purely under your own power, like Superman?  Under my own power, like Superman. Or, with an invisible jet like my girl Wonder Woman - but that's not really the question. I bet my husband would be fart-powered, with an ass pack. Why haven't we evolved to that point yet? I'm sure the bean industry would love it.

If you could tranform into other people, look however you wanted, how would you choose to look, or who would you turn into?

Kristanna Loken

or 

Kate Winslet

If you could turn into an animal, which animal would it be? A cat. Mine are so freaking lazy. That's the life.

If you had superpowers, would you use them to become a vigilante superhero, fighting crime? I think I'd rather be a prankster.

What side dish do you like the most: potato salad, macaroni salad, baked beans, etc. Macaroni salad

Do you prefer food grilled on a charcoal or gas grill? Smoked, with hickory!!! We don't do charcoal or gas.

Do you want just one meat item, or a mixture: such as chicken, steaks, hot dogs, hamburgers, etc. I like variety.

Do you want to eat outside or inside? Depends on the weather. If it's too hot and sunny, inside.

Does it bother you to have citronella candles burning if you are eating or cooking outside? No.

If you could change one thing in your life right at this moment, what would it be? I'd have my dream career. Or at least know what career that would be.

What talent/skill don't you have that you'd like to have, and why? Dance. I love to watch people dance. I look like an epileptic fish out of water when I dance. Or Elaine from Seinfeld.

What talent/skill do you have that not many people know about? I can wash every lunch tray in the cafeteria in under 15 minutes.

What reality TV show best matches your real life? Tough one. I don't watch much reality television. I'd have to say Kitchen Nightmares, because my kitchen is always chaotic and I probably just think I'm a better cook than I am.

If your life was a reality TV show, what would it be called? Boring.

Friday Five

There's a community on LiveJournal that posts a set of questions every Friday. Some weeks, I feel like putting in the effort. Sometimes it just takes me a few days to put in that effort.

What is your favorite book and why? More like series - Diana Gabaldon's Outlander. So far, there are 7 books and there will be at least one more. The books are long and well written, and you cannot help but be best friends with the characters. They feel like family. Other favorites include The Stand, Bag of Bones, and The Dark Tower series by Stephen King, Strangers and the Odd Thomas Books by Dean Kootz, and Sara Donati's Into the Wilderness series.

How many languages do you speak? Just English and igpay atinlay.

How many family members do you have named Bill? Jim? Etc? In my immediate family and what I know of the massive amount of extended family members, no Bills or Jims, but I'm pretty sure there's a distant cousin named Etc and his son Etc Jr.

What is your all time favorite song? All time??? I can't pick just one. I go through phases. Sometimes I love the old stuff. Sometimes I can't get enough of the new stuff. If a gun is to my head, Def Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar On Me" made me who I am. That is the song (thanks to my friend Melissa pointing out the one-armed drummer) that got me into hair metal, which dictated who my friends were, which led me down certain paths. But recent favorites include "Welcome To The Black Parade" and "Famous Last Words" by My Chemical Romance, but my right now song is "Savior" by Rise Against. I can't not move my feet when I hear it.

What can't you imagine your life without? My Zune and mp3 technology.
