I'm Wondering Wednesday

1. 'What's your favorite color' is such a boring question. Is your favorite color now the same as it was when you were a child, and what was it? 

I always liked blue and pink, and probably always will. I can't really pick between the two. 

2. What is/was your dream age to start having children? 

I had my first at 23, less than a month from my 24th birthday. That was a pretty good age. Ideally, I wish I could've waited until 25 to have another year of freedom, but then my life would be completely different now. 

3. Relationship status? And if you're married, how long until you realized you were going to marry the one you were with?

I don't remember. I know now though : )

4. What's one random food that you hate?

Bananas. They make me want to gag.

It's been awhile. Not that anyone probably cared. But it's time for 'I'm Wondering Wednesday!' So link up if you want below. 

1. Are you a coupon user?

Yes! I just printed a few off today. My favorite Canadian coupon sites are Save.ca, Smart Source, and Coupons Canada. I remember using at least 4 coupons while food shopping over the weekend, all for stuff we normally buy. 

2. What's your favorite money-saver?

Skip on cable. We do have it now, thanks to a really good promotion, but when the promo is over we'll be getting rid of it. Or whenever Big Brother Canada is over. We haven't decided yet. Netflix is a much better bang for your buck. 

3. What's one thing that you'd give up to save money, except you can't live without it?

The internet. No explanation needed. 

4. What's your favorite big splurge? (Vacation, car, etc)

Right now it would be my new bedroom set. 

I'm Wondering Wednesday

I missed this last week because I was sick, so let's get back with it. And just  for the hell of it, this is the St. Patrick's day version. So answer in comments, or in your own post and link up. 

1. Do you celebrate St. Patrick's Day, if so how?

I have before, but it's not a big thing with me like it is for others. Around here, it's just a huge drinking holiday. I like drinking every now and then, so if I drink on St. Patrick's Day it's more for the social aspect of it, rather then being huge on St. Patrick's day. 

2. What's your favorite thing that's green? 

Laying in the grass on a cool summer morning. Does that count? It sounds wonderful. 

3. Do you believe in luck? 

Sure. Good things happen and bad things happen. I don't think that really has much to do with being lucky or unlucky. I think of luck more as a feeling, like knowing that you're lucky to have someone/something. I'm not superstitious at all. 

4. If you're a Pinterest user, have you been pinning any St. Patrick's day food/crafts? 

Not really. And if you don't believe me, here's my St. Patrick's day & Valentine's Day Pinterest board. 

5. Do you like themed questions?

Nope, not at all. Especially not for something like St. Patrick's day, 

Now link up! 

I'm Wondering Wednesday

I couldn't help but laugh at the comments on yesterday's post concerning my annoyance with boyfriend. The verdict seems unanimous: men are clueless. While we haven't discussed the issue, we did have a decent night together last night. I'm going to try to let my annoyance slide this time, and the next time the same issue starts bothering me I'm just going to resort to my usual defense - sarcastic comments. Even clueless boyfriend catches on to that. 

After all, it was a sarcastic (whiny) comment that got me a balloon a couple of days after our anniversary. 

Now, onto 'I'm Wondering Wednesday'. No one's ever linked up yet, but I'm still giving you the option to. I'm hoping with enough begging, some of you will give in and make my day. If not, you can still answer in the comments. 

1. What's your dream job? It has to be an actual job that exists. 

I love my job, but I'd love it more if it was a little busier. These days we're not getting many calls. I'd love to do something the requires computer work - like blogging if I was actually interesting enough to make money from it. Or a writer as in book writer. 

2. What's your biggest cooking or baking fail?

So many. Usually when it comes to cooking. Baking I do okay at, but the  fail I remember the most is baking: Cheesecake. I'd made it before and it turned out fine but the second time I made it, it turned into a runny, goopy mess. I was sad. 

3. What's the largest age gap between you and someone you dated? And the age gap between you and your current partner?

Three years is the largest, and boyfriend and I are almost exactly 6 months apart. He was born 6 days too early. 

 4. Where do you spend most of your internet time? 

Facebook. I really need to do a boycott again (like I did before for a week) just so I can stop wasting so much time. I spend the majority of the time browsing the local buy and sell groups. It great for finding good deals, but I don't need any more deals. We have what we need, but I'm still addicted to browsing and shopping. 

5. When you were a kid, what names did you swear you were going to name your children, that you wouldn't now? 

Anthony, Arianna, Madison, Kelley (for a boy) are a few that I can remember. 

I'm Wondering Wednesday

I'm Wondering Wednesday. I'm going to try again to make this a weekly thing because I don't have much to blog about. It's four questions. I answer them, your answer them, then link up your post below. That's pretty much it. If you're feeling frisky, suggest your own questions in the comments for next Wednesday! 

1. What's one little thing that bugs you so much more than it should? 
Chloe throwing food on the floor.  I think it bugs me so much because she has that badass 'tough shit, mom' look on her face while she does it. 

2. What's your favorite breakfast food or meal? 

Bacon (if it's cooked perfectly to my liking) and over easy eggs. I dip the bacon (and toast and hashbrowns) in the yolks. Now I'm seriously craving breakfast.

3. Can you do a proper cartwheel? 
Not a chance. 

4. What's the best part of your job?
I love so many things about my job, but I guess the best part is how laid-back it is. I get to sit at a desk all day. I can take a bathroom break whenever I want. I can snack at my desk. It's all good.

I'm Wondering Wednesday

I'm Wondering Wednesday. This will be a new weekly thing. For as long as it lasts because, let's face it, I'm lazy. It's four questions. I answer them, your answer them, then link up your post below. That's pretty much it. 

1. What, in your opinion, is a non-mandatory high school class (not something like math or English) that came in handy the most in you life?
Keybording/typing classes. I took a few over the years and now that I work with computers, most tasks I do are very quick. I type around 70-80 words a minute. 

2. Tell us about your first kiss. 

I was 15, and it happened during a game of spin-the-bottle. (Do kids still play that?) It was with someone who was a friend at the time, someone I can say I have 'history' with, and I still talk to every now and then.

3. Do you drink the recommended amount of water daily?
Nope, not even close. I have coffee in the morning, and maybe some water in the afternoon at work. When I get home I sometimes have milk. And when boyfriend's home I just usually steal whatever he's drinking. 

4. Describe what you would consider a perfect moment. 
This morning - Chloe woke up before the alarm went off so I took her downstairs, put a little milk into her bottle, and held her while she drank and I watched tv.
