Ask Me Anything
Now that I've finally broken then 4k post mark (again), let's keep it going!
Ask me ANYTHING!
Re: Ask Me Anything
What kind of fun things are on the agenda for Vegas?
Other than drinking, a little gambling, and attending our friends' wedding, we're going to walk the strip, see a Cirque show, and visit the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop. We're going to take advantage of Spa Week while we're in Vegas, and will rent a car and drive out to the Grand Canyon for a day. There are a bunch of other things here and there we want to see, but at the same time we're going to try to be as flexible as we can.

If you had to go back and name Samma something else, what would it be?
What's for lunch?
If you had to gain 20 pounds for some crazy reason (ala Reese Witherspoon for Bridget Jones' Diary), what would you eat constantly to achieve that?
What's one talent you wish you had? (certain sport, music, etc?)
Do you think it's crazy to pay $300pp for the Chef's tasting menu at French Laundry?
I honestly don't think we would. Samantha was the only name either of us could agree on, even before we knew she was a girl. Whenever #2 comes along, we're screwed.

Any ideas for Samma's 2nd birthday yet?
Did you ever think of going to college for something different?
What is your favorite food to make?
What is your favorite video game to play?
I don't know yet. I have a can of French Onion soup in my drawer and some shredded cheese in the fridge. I might be creative.

McDonalds. Quarter Pounders were my end-all years ago, so I know it works. -_-

I know it's not my AMA but....not crazy
) Skimp somewhere else or skip the wine pairings, but the food is incredible.
I wish I could draw. Not just doodle, but really draw. Or paint.

I might be missing something, but I was going to say crazy... ?_?

HA no -- don't scare me like that. Though if she's still on her Elmo kick, it might lean towards that direction. I do know that it will be smaller than her 1st birthday, and at our house. But other than that? Nada

For a while I wanted to go for biology, but when I learned that I would need other sciences (like physics and chemistry) to reach that goal, I changed my mind. Then I thought about forensic science, since I liked biology and law so much, but then that nasty physics came into play again, and so did math - blegh - so that's when I turned my eyes towards law and paralegal studies.

Grilled cheese. I like it simple.

Other than World of Warcraft, which seems to be a go-to more often than not, my most favorite game to play and re-play has been Final Fantasy VII

Oh, it was most definitely purchased as a starter home, and remains as such. The three of us are already growing out of it, so whenever Baby#2 comes along, we'll have to get into something bigger. And I want a master bedroom/bathroom. Plus, our yard sucks and our street is busy - not ideal for kids at all. I want to stay in the same town, but yeah, we'll put it on the market and start looking in a couple years.

Wasn't that Renee whatsherface with the puckery lips?
yeah, wrong actress. Renee Zellweger. Wrong blonde actress whose name starts with R.

Eventually. One thing at a time... but it's definitely on the agenda.

Someday. I want to have my bachelors finished first, or at least on the horizon. A couple of years, I think.

Honestly, this day in age science and medicine are coming so far that women can have children later, but I don't think I would push it too long. I want to say 35 but I don't know. If we never have another, I don't think I would be missing out, but I would be more concerned for Sam.. not concerned, but I would feel like she was missing out. But again, anything is possible, our minds for #2 might change in a couple of years, or we may not be able to have another baby.

Teehee...
Marry: Ames, because she's one of the best mothers I know, therefore I know Samma and any other children we have would be in the best of care. Plus, she cooks ;D
F*ck: Christina. Tattoos. Rawr.
Mame: Rach, only because she's just too perfect as is.

Ooo la la
What is your favorite thing about being back in school? Least favorite?
If you had to choose Samma's future profession for her right now what would you pick?
