You Oughta Know

I've had about eleventy billion post ideas this week, but haven't been able to complete a single one of them. My brain has been all over the place and even my boss commented on how absent minded I've been. Don't worry, she was laughing at the time.

 

Anyway, I've decided to totally punk out on writing anything deep today, and instead I'm linking up with Kenzie for "We Want to Know Wednesday."

 

Ready? Set? GO.

What were you doing the last time you had a really good laugh?

 

Actually, I was sitting on the table in my obstetrician's office. Stewart was making fun of a bump on my foot, calling it disgusting (it's a Ganglion cyst, no big deal), and for some reason the comments he was making were totally cracking me up. We were laughing so hard by the time the doctor came in that I almost couldn't calm myself down for the appointment. Then I kept trying to talk to the doc about serious stuff, like how you shouldn't get foot massages during pedicures while you're pregnant, and Stew just could not focus. Of course he had to wonder aloud why anyone would willingly touch my disgusting foot, anyway. This brought on a new round of hysterical laughter. I don't know why I think it's so funny when my husband makes fun of me, but honestly if you can't find humor in your flaws, you're not gonna make it.

What song always makes you happy when you hear it?

 

Oh, what a perfect opportunity to share one of my very favorite songs/videos from the past year! Dumb Ways to Die is a public service announcement campaign by Metro Trains in Australia to promote rail safety. It's hilarious, and almost immediately went viral at the end of last year. Sometimes when I'm in a bad mood I put it on and immediately cheer up. Come on, tell me this doesn't make you giggle. And if it doesn't, I fear you might be dead inside...

What is your favorite room in your house and why?

 

I think I'd have to say our den/library. I love my book collection so much, and I'm seriously so proud of it (it's been a work in progress since kindergarten!) Sometimes I just wander in there to look at the books, organize them, straighten them, plan what I'm going to read next... I'm kind of book nerd if you haven't heard. This is the only picture I have with me at the moment, but we also have a beautiful corner desk in that room and an awesome vintage world map on the wall. Now all I need is an awesome leather chair and I think it will be complete!

Share something you are currently looking forward to:

 

Is it too cliché to say Thanksgiving? We always spend Thanksgiving with Stewart's family in Vancouver, and I look forward to it every year. Family, friends, food, fun... BUNCO! It's pretty amazing. Except last year my weekend was ruined by a stomach bug, but this time I feel healthy as a horse and my morning sickness seems to be mostly gone, so I plan to enjoy the holiday vomit-free! It doesn't take much to make me happy...

What never fails to put you in a good mood?

 

Knowing that Stewart will be there when I get home from work. He's been taking a lot of overtime shifts lately, and coming home to a dark, empty house just isn't the same as opening the door and knowing he's there waiting for me. I love the evenings when we make dinner together and have time to hang out before bed. Plus I hate sleeping in our house alone, alarm system or not. So on days I know Stew is not on shift, you'll usually find me in a pretty chipper mood.

 

 

Well, happy hump day my lovelies. I hope your week has been wonderful so far!
