Getting to Know You

Another fun one that I just might try to do every week. Getting to Know You is hosted by MannLand5. Apparently this week's questions were created by a man blogger! Feel free to join in if you want! She has a MckLinky on her blog that you can use to share your post - or you can just leave me a comment. :-)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

1 - Why did you start blogging?
I really struggled after my son was born, and was diagnosed with postpartum depression. I thought that maybe if I blogged it would help me work through things.

2 - Who's the one blog friend that you would want to meet most in "real life"?
Well, she's not really a blog friend – she's an online friend I met elsewhere who happens to have a blog. That would be my BFF, Chris!
 
3 - Why are you always concerned with losing that "extra 10 pounds" when chances are your husband/boyfriend/friends tell you that you look just fine the way you are?
Well, I'm not concerned with that – YET. I still have a lot of the extra baby weight to lose. I'll get back to  you when I know! ;-)

4 - What's the one thing you wish guys could understand about you?
What PMS is like. That they could see just how little control we have over how our bodies, minds, and emotions react to the regular hormonal fluctuations our bodies endure!

5 - Tattoos. How many do you have and how many are visible when you wear your "everyday" clothes?
Zero and zero.

6 - What was the best year of your life and why?
Oh, I dunno. I like to think that the best is yet to come, that my life will get better and better. By categorizing a past year as my best ever, I think it limits the rest of my years a bit!

7 - Name three things you would do if you were a man for one day.
What could I do as a man that I can't do as a woman? The only things I can think of are pee standing up, have an erection, and stuff like that. I don't feel any of that is stuff I need – or even want – to experience!

8 - What's your alcoholic drink of choice that usually raises a few eyebrows?
A mudslide, I guess. It doesn't really raise eyebrows, except for the fact that it means I'm drinking. I very rarely drink alcohol, so me drinking at all is noteworthy! ;-)

Awww, Heather! <3 You rock! You're definitely my BFF too. Let's try to meet this summer, I think we can make it happen this year for sure! :-) Oh and thanks for linking my blog. I've been thinking of making one like you. Some of the weekly stuff you post looks like SO much fun.

Chris ~ Those weekly things are so much fun! Definitely join in! :-) I have seriously been considering breaking my book blog off from this one, but I'm not sure I want to. I don't really want more I have to keep up on, ya know? It would be AWESOME if we could meet. I'll be honest and admit I'm not sure how it's gonna work out, but God-willing, it will.

Beth ~ Thank you! This is one of my favorite memes!

I hear ya on not being sure you want more than 1 blog! lol Since you don't do book reviews everyday, you could probably manage both.

As for us meeting, I already starting checking airfare costs for me to fly out to IL...the cheapest I've come up with is a flight from Newark to Moline (I'd have to switch planes in Chicago) for $308 roundtrip. Not bad! I'll wait til summer gets a little closer, save up some cash from my writing assignments and see what Emil says about it. ;-)

You know, I should actually discuss this stuff - including the possible visit to VA - with the hubby soon. That would help you quite a bit, too, right? ;-)

That would help immensely! ;-)
