This week’s Friday Five is more of Beth’s random questions. It’s Beth’s birthday so be sure to go wish her happy birthday!

1.If you could be on a show (talk show, game show…) which one would you pick?

For a talk show, I would choose Oprah! I have no idea what I would go on her show for, but who wouldn’t love the opportunity to sit on that stage and chat with her! She’s awesome!

For a game show, I would choose Deal or No Deal. I looooooove Deal or No Deal! I would totally lose all of the money, because I probably wouldn’t ever take the deal, but I think it would be really fun!

2. What was your first job?

I did some babysitting during high school, but I didn’t have a regular, real job until I started college. I worked as a substitute at the preschool at my church. There was always someone gone, so I worked nearly every day. It was fantastic! Makes me sad because some of my first kids are now in 4th grade!

3. What’s one of your guilty pleasures?

I did a list of five of them here, but I’ll highlight one of them now! One of my guilty pleasures is soap operas! I love ‘em! I’ve been watching The Young and The Restless since I was born, thanks to my Momma! It doesn’t get much better than watching Victor Newman destroy one of his enemies! My other favorite was cancelled ten years ago *sniff sniff*, Sunset Beach. I absolutely loved it! I still miss it! I also watch The Bold and The Beautiful on my lunch breaks, and Days of our Lives when I can. Good stuff!

4. Would you ever vacation alone?

I don’t think I could EVER vacation alone. I hate just going on day trips for work alone, so there’s no way I could actually take a vacation on my own. Plus, I’m so directionally challenged that I would get lost and be stuck in the middle of nowhere.

5. Democrat, Republican, or Independent..or maybe even Green Party (whatever that is)?

I am a Republican. Without getting too political, I will say that there are good and bad things about all parties, but I choose to vote based on the issues that I am most passionate about, and the Republican stance on those issues are the closest to my stance.

Today’s Friday Five is random questions asked by Beth! Here are my answers!

1. If given the choice to skip work for a day, how would you spend the entire day?

I would start by sleeping late and waking up just in time to catch up on my favorite soap opera…
..
Then, I would go get a pedicure…

Then, I would call Teddie to come over, and we would spend the afternoon by the pool!

I am definitely in need of a day like this!

2. If you could start fresh, what profession would you choose?

I talked about this a week or two ago, but I would choose news reporter.

3. What is your favorite candy or candy bar?

Love these!

4. Have you ever ordered anything from an infomercial or bought an “As Seen on TV” item?

I have not bought anything myself, but I did get a magic bullet for my college graduation, and I absolutely love it! I make smoothies and milkshakes with it in the summer, and it’s great! If you don’t have one, you need one!

5. What movie do you always cry at?

No matter how many times I watch them, I always cry!

Today’s Friday Five is random questions asked by Beth. Here’s my answers!

1. Are you a Mac or a PC? I am absolutely, totally a PC! I had to use a Mac in a class in school, and I’ve used friends’ Macs, and I just can’t handle it. I also don’t like change at all, so I’m sticking to a PC!

2. If you could go anywhere on vacation this summer where would you go? Right now, I’d be up for going pretty much anywhere! These last two weeks at work have been the most stressful of my life, and I’m ready to get away. Any suggestions about where would be a good place to go?

3. What is your most cherished childhood memory? I don’t know that I could pick just one. My childhood was great! I was on a nationally-ranked jump rope team in elementary school, and we won regional competition and competed at nationals at Disneyworld. It was pretty amazing! Also, just being a kid was fun! Hanging out with friends and themed birthday parties (50′s for me, Hawaii for Jessica) were great too!

4. What were you doing the last time you had a good laugh? Yesterday, while I was at work, my Momma was going through my dresser drawers in my bedroom at home. She was cleaning it out so they could bring it to me today. She found all kinds of random stuff, and texted me pictures of the stuff she found, and a few of her wearing stuff. Look for a post on that in the next few days!

5. What is your favorite book or magazine? Karen Kingsbury and Nicholas Sparks are my favorite authors, so any books by them are great! Favorite magazines are People and Glamour. Love ‘em!
