Maybe I'll make a tradition...

...of doing the 5 Question Fridays on Sunday nights. On Fridays I typically have too much going on & by Sunday night, it's slower, and I'm ready to write in my blog, and Tricia has posted the questions on http://www.spokeit.com and it just makes sense to do it.

1. What do you think makes a good friend, or friendship?
Trust, humor, and a few things in common. The difference between a good friend and a great friend is the ability to be 100% yourself and know that no matter how much of an idiot you are, they're still going to love you because you're you.

2. What is the last thing you bought, and regretted?
I love my iPad. I use it every day. It is handy and portable, is really fun to use, and looks great. But the truth of the matter is that I didn't really have $800 to spend on a new toy. My own impatience is my downfall - I am sure I could have gotten it for my birthday + Christmas - but that's in December. And I wanted it NOW. So I bought it. Good for me, right? Bad for me. I can't afford to buy anything else for the rest of the summer and I can't even go to the movies or anything. Bad decision.

3. Have you ever had a prank played on you?
All the time in college. We had some prank wars going for a whole semester. My favorite involved my roommates stealing my mattress and moving it up 2 floors to a friend's room. I'm serious - best prank ever. I stared at my bed, which they had re-made with my sheets and blanket, for about 10 minutes trying to figure out why it just didn't seem right.

4. What if your favorite theme park?
Busch Gardens will always have a special place in my heart, but I don't remember the trip to Disney World, and the only other park I've been to is King's Dominion, so it's really not much of a contest at all.

5. Have you ever seen anyone else give birth?
I haven't and I don't want to picture my vagina stretching out that way, or the pain, or the blood, or the screaming. I'm secretly hoping all of my children will require c-sections so that I never have to experience the "miracle" of birth. And if that doesn't happen, bring on the drugs!
