Let's try something different. I'll ask 1 question, and the next person responds with their answer, and then asks their own question.
Feel free to answer other previous questions too. If more than one person replies at the same time, the 3rd person will answer both questions, and come up with their own. Make sense? Good.
Let's start.
Have you ever gotten a traffic citation? If yes, how many and for what? If no, have you ever gotten pulled over and gotten out of the ticket?
Re: A different random poll.
Have you ever gotten a traffic citation? If yes, how many and for what?Yes, For speeding....worst 200 dlls Ive ever spent.
Question:
How many credit cards do you have? Do you use them all?
How many credit cards do you have? Do you use them all? None. Bad story, they were closed for non-payment. H and I are both trying to straighten out our credit. Gonna teach our kids how to be better with credit.
Question: What is your favorite cable channel? Or the one that you watch the most?
My Profile
Have you ever gotten a traffic citation? If yes, how many and for what? Yes, only one. For speeding. I was doing 45 in a 25mph zone. I went to court and just got probabtion.
How many credit card do you have? Do you use them all? Funny you should ask. Up until yesterday the answer would have been none. I was stupid in college and messed up my credit. So I swore off using credit cards. I'm trying to rebuild my credit so I just got one yesterday that I am going to be much more wise with. H on the other hand has a bunch that he is paying off.
What is your favorite cable channel? Or the one that you watch the most? HBO, WE, Oxygen. Actually if I could get HBO, On Demand, and DVR without having cable I'd be happy. I mostly watch ABC and CBS.
What is your favorite summer meal?
Tickets/citations: I've had 3. One was dismissed in court.
credit cards: between us I think we have 3. 1 carries no balance and we are working on paying off the other two. They aren't too out of control. Don't ask about student loans though...
favorite channel: I don't own a TV. I think if I did I would watch HGTV and ScyFy the most
favorite summer meal: Probably burgers or fish tacos with lots of fruit as a dessert
What is your shoe size?
Tickets/citations: Parking-- too many to remember. Cites... 1) for improperly being in an HOV (legit it was a mistake)--- go off; 2) reckless driving (over 79mph)--- charge was reduced to simple speeding (ie < 14mph above the posted limited) and accepted
credit cards: 3-- 1 is mine, 1 is H's. 1 is our travel card (zero balance for foreign transactions-- both our cards charge). All 3 are paid in full every moth.
favorite channel: I don't watch tv (never owned one); H has a tv but mostly watches series on DVD.
favorite summer meal: Anything grilled!
What is your shoe size? 7.5
MY QUESTION: Favorite splurge (wedding, baby, self, him, etc)?????
Tickets/citations: Speeding - I have quite a few, but luckily they were spread over many different years in many different cities. H has NEVER gotten one which makes it more annoying every time I get one.
credit cards: 2 - we each have one - mine if fully paid off and H's is right under $5K. Since we lost $20K in moving and put like $10K on in furniture stupidly right after we found out we were staying in Charleston only to find out we were moving I don't think that's so bad. (This was October 2009 - paid off like $15K in less than 2 years. We hope to be fully done and debt free other than my car in 5 months.)
favorite channel: Probably TLC. It's the channel I can mostly likely randomly turn on and find something interestng
favorite summer meal: Grilled steak (althogh I burn it) or hamburger/hot dog, baked potato & salad!
What is your shoe size? 7.5
Favorite splurge: Clothes/shoes, but I count those as needs. Maybe nailpolish? I have probably 30 of them and at $4-$7 a pop that's silly, but I love them all.
My question: Do you like to watch sports (on tv and in real life?)
Tickets/citations: Oh I had a big speeding ticket at like 16 and another when my jerk of an ex had expired tags but made them look legite and I didn't know and guess who was driving...and one speed cam ticket but haven't had a real ticket in 10 years knock on wood
credit cards: Hmm we have 2 or 3 I can't remember but only one has a balance that's for H for work. Otherwise we paid those suckers off when they once were over 30k from his stupid ex. We do cash now
favorite channel: Oh Bravo, Discovery, History, Food Network, TVLand
favorite summer meal: Caprese Salad with Proscuitto, or Steaks on the grill
What is your shoe size? 8
Favorite splurge: A really nice meal
Do you like to watch sports (on tv and in real life?) Yes to both..
My question: What did you want to be when you grew up

What is your shoe size? 10
Favorite splurge: Getting my hair done (highlights, cut, color, professional straightening).

Sports: Not a fan on T.V., but I enjoy going to live games. Especially rugby. It is really fun.
Who is your all time favorite T.V. character?
Tickets/citations: One speeding ticket (after 7 cars passed me!!!!) and one violation when the local PD was doing a sting operation by having people step into the crosswalk right as you were nearing, not giving you enough time to stop but still calling it a traffic violation.
For the record I'm pro-Cops, I just can't talk my way out of anything!
credit cards: Ugh. 6 between us. Instead of taking out loans for College H used his credit card. Not good, but we're working on it.
favorite channel: NBC, Bravo, Food Network and HGTV. Sadly I only have HGTV and NBC.
favorite summer meal: Fruit salad. Love summer fruit!
What is your shoe size? 10
Favorite splurge: That I've already made? Our trip to Switzerland last year, totally worth it.
Do you like to watch sports (on tv and in real life?) Yep
What did you want to be when you grew up? A great Mom/Wife. I'm having a really hard time with what I want my career to look like post-baby these days.
My question: Boxers or Briefs or Boxer Briefs (on your H)?
