Re: Friday Five
1. What do you just not understand, no matter how hard you try?
- Why people commit the same crimes over and over again, haven't you learned that you WILL get caught??
- Physics.
2. If your personality was a ride at the amusement park, what ride would it be?
Probably the kiddie roller coaster. B/c I have my mood swings and crazy moments, but they aren't THAT bad
3. What is the perfect breakfast food?
Pancakes & sausage always makes me happy. Right now I'm loving a chorizo frittata

My weekend is not long, but thanks for reminding me :P Watching the OSU game at our house I think, going to the pool or the beach to enjoy this magical weather
1. What do you just not understand, no matter how hard you try?
Nosy busybodies. I have no time to focus and concentrate on other people's business; I'm too busy taking care of my own. Wait a minute - I feel a "Dear Co-worker" post coming on!
2. If your personality was a ride at the amusement park, what ride would it be?
The train ride at Hershey Park. I tend to be fairly steady, not too many ups and downs. This is mostly a good thing, but sometimes I could be more funny or more exciting, I think...

Eggs with cheese scrambled just right, hash browns, bacon and piping hot flaky, layered biscuits!! Sorry - this is more than just one :-)

Spades! I just cannot be beat - Cannasta is close second!
5. Plans for the (long) weekend?
I'll be working on Monday :-(, but tomorrow is a raincheck date with my Mom for our girls day out, then a little light housework and hanging out on the deck. The weather is supposed to be gorgeous, and I want to lay out and read on the deck one last weekend before it gets too cold to do so comfortably.
Have a terrific weekend everyone :-))
2. If your personality was a ride at the amusement park, what ride would it be? ETA: not sure...probably Psycho or something like that. I tend to have quite a few mood swings.
3. What is the perfect breakfast food? Waffles!
4. What is your favorite card game? Speed
5. Plans for the (long) weekend? No long weekend for me either

2. If your personality was a ride at the amusement park, what ride would it be? My first thought is some sort of rocket ride, since I am a total nerd and work in space stuff, but that is not my personality. For my personality I guess a pretty tame roller coaster with some fun loops and spins

4. What is your favorite card game? Hearts maybe, or poker

3. What is the perfect breakfast food? either biscuts and gravy or piping hot pancakes
4. What is your favorite card game? with family--Liverpool Rummy, with hubby--SkipBo
5. Plans for the (long) weekend? staying in tonight, tomorrow maybe apple picking or going to a winery or Oktoberfest somewhere, Sunday is family hayride and we can't wait, but it's supposed to be close to 85 here on Sunday--almost too hot for a hayride.
1. What do you just not understand, no matter how hard you try? How people can hurt those around them when they say that they had good intentions. 95% just selfish, and they cannot even come up with a good excuse.
2. If your personality was a ride at the amusement park, what ride would it be? I don't know the name, the one that plays really loud rock music and spins you around really fast and you end up crushing whoever is sitting next to you. Reasons why? It is a fun ride with lots of music that makes you laugh like hell, if you screw with me you get to sit on the outside and I will crush you ("figuratively"),
3. What is the perfect breakfast food? Banana chocolate chip pancakes, and frosted flakes. Great combo I know.
4. What is your favorite card game? Kings? The one where you put all the cards in a circle and they mean different things. It ususally requires everyone agreeing on a list of rules in the beginning since the numbers mean something different to everyone.
5. Plans for the (long) weekend? Not a long weekend unfortunately. (boo). Tomorrow I will be going to Oktoberfest at a local state park with DH, BFF, and my parents. Sunday is FOOOOOOOOTBALLL!!! WOOOO GO COWBOYS! ha. I am really looking forward to this weekend.

Kiddie roller coster too. I have my ups & downs but they're not to severe or scary & usually don't make you sick.
3. What is the perfect breakfast food?
Egg Benedict - yum!
4. What is your favorite card game?
UNO or Rummy
5. Plans for the (long) weekend?
No long weekend for me but tonight DH & I are cooking steaks & enjoying the pretty weather. Then tomorrow morning he's working (boo) but I'm going to the local festival in town (yay). It's the Sweet Potato Festival in Darlington SC (home of the Trck to Tuff to Tame for you NASCAR fans) & then Saturday afternoon & Sunday we'll be painting the house (outside) . We got most of it done last weekend & will finish the trim work hopefully.
1. What do you just not understand, no matter how hard you try?
I guess politics - I just have no interest, even though I know I should care
2. If your personality was a ride at the amusement park, what ride would it be?
Bumper cars! Because I have no patience behind the wheel - HAHA Also, they are just so darn fun!
3. What is the perfect breakfast food?
I LOVE breakfast food for ANY meal, but I'd have to choose pancakes if I can only choose one here!

Texas Hold Em poker, or 500 Rummy (I always play with my mom)

Veg and watch all the sports (GO PHILS!) with DH and make some yummy seafood dishes!
