Small Talk Six – April 25

It’s another week of the new MomDot meme, Small Talk Six. The object of Small Talk Six is to give us something fun to blog about on Saturdays that also tells our readers a little about us. It’s a great way to make new friends and find out things they would normally never share.

This week’s topic is kind of interesting and really gets you thinking.  This week you are to list:

6 things other people do that make you personally uncomfortable

Hmm….Where do I begin? This will require some thought….

  1. Large amounts of Cursing.  A little here and there is ok, but large amounts do make me uncomfortable.
  2. Public Displays of Affection.  Not small, natural ones mind you. But I have no need to see people practically make babies in front of me – this seems to always happen at concerts!
  3. Lying.  I can’t stand to know that someone is lying to me.
  4. 6 things other people do that make you personally uncomfortable. It’s been years since I’ve actually witnessed people do drugs, but many a many years ago I traveled in a circle where drugs weren’t so uncommon and popped up from time to time, and it was never anything I was comfortable with seeing.
  5. Tears.  Not all tears, but just random teenage girl crying for no real reason….well I say teenage because that’s what I see, but really any random female emotions get on my nerves.
  6. Putting Other People Down/Gossiping.  Now, we all get stupid from time to time, but people that do this all the time, make me VERY uncomfortable.

What are some actions that people do that make you uncomfortable?  Go write about it and be sure to sign the Mr. Linky over at MomDot.

Small Talk Six – April 18

It’s another week of the new MomDot meme, Small Talk Six. The object of Small Talk Six is to give us something fun to blog about on Saturdays that also tells our readers a little about us. It’s a great way to make new friends and find out things they would normally never share.

This week’s topic is 6 animals (domestic, wild, or exotic) you think would be fun to own as pets.

This is one of the tougher ones for me as I’m not really big into pets.  We have beta fish, hermit crabs, hamsters, and dogs, but they are all really the girls’ pets. I’m just not a pet person.

There’s really only one pet I’ve wanted for a long time is a Clydesdale.

Yep…I want a genuine Budweiser horse.  I’m not getting one, but I’d LOVE To have one – or two or three….LOL.  It would be so fun to have them in all the local parades. 

Coming up with 5 more pets though – that’s the challenge.  

I’m NOT into cats or dogs.  The rodents really do NOTHING for me. I do think the hermit crabs are kind of cool, but we already have them.

So…let’s see.

There was a time in my life I thought a monkey would be fun…..so #2 Monkey.

Another fish I’ve wanted to add to our collection, but because of the work involved with them, I’ve avoided is Mickey Fish.

So far we’ve stuck to beta as they don’t require – real tanks and filters and stuff, but if I ever make the plunge to fish that require maintenance, Mickey Fish will be our first purchase.

Ok…so I’ve got 3…that’s only half.  I’ve got to come up with 3 more?!?!

Hmmm….ok. Well I love Charlotte’s Web so how about going with that and having a cute little pig?  It would have to be a small one, some miniature breed.

Speaking of miniatures – how about minature horses?  They are cute and seem like they’d be fun if you were a pet kind of person.

Whew!  That’s 5 one to go – what is one more fun pet?

Yes…I got it….A Parrot!  If I had one that you could actually train to talk and everything then a  Parrot could be fun.parrot

All right…there are my 6 pets I think it would fun to own.

  1. Clydesdale
  2. Monkey
  3. Mickey Fish
  4. Pig
  5. Minature Horse
  6. Parrot

  2. Waffles
  3. French Toast
  4. Breakfast Tacos
  5. Biscuits & Gravy
  6. And the classic: Eggs, bacon, toast meal!

6 things you would like to do naked if you lived alone

Wow.  I’m afraid that this list might just be short of those 6 items this week because I can’t really think of much.  Hmmm..

  1. Getting ready for work in the morning after I take my shower
  2. Swimming
  3. Sitting in a hot tub (hey, if I lived alone I could afford a hot tub)
  4. Okay….Now I’m clueless
  5. I really can’t think of more than three things.
  6. Does that make me weird?
