Um, Um, Good!

Sure, Thanksgiving is all about being thankful. I KNOW I am. But, we have to admit, it's about really good food too. You have the traditional Thanksgiving dinner of turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing, but each of us has our own twist on the traditional, right? In my family, we mash rutabega along with the potatoes. We have also added rice and black beans to the menu. Each person in the family has their own personal favorite. One of my favorites is, believe it or not, cranberry sauce. It must have the little can lines though. ;)

What is your favorite dish for Thanksgiving?

What should you be when you grow up?

Yes, we're all grown-ups, but it's not all over yet. Maybe you should be doing something else. :) This test is ONE question long. Here's what it said about me:
You should be an artist. Incredibly creative, spontaneous, and unique. No one can guess what you're going to do next, but it's usually something amazing. You can't deal with routine, rules, or structure. You're easily bored. As long as you are able to innovate and break the rules, you are extremely successful. You do best when you:
- Can work by yourself
- Can express your personality in your work

You would also be a good journalist or actor.

Hated It!

I loved band. I loved making music. I loved the friends I made there. I even loved all of the practices. But there was one thing I hated having to do in the band-sewing the teeny, tiny hems on the cut off fingers of my gloves. It was horrible!

What is the one thing you hated about band?

Mundane in the Membrane

Have you ever had a lot to do at work, but it was so mundane, that you were bored to tears, and it caused you to not want to do any of it? What do you do when that happens? Do you just sit there, bored, and do it all? Or, do you find some kind of distraction?

Top 3

I remember certain band songs for different reasons. Eres Tu always comes to mind. It wasn't one of my favorites, but it was one of the first ones I played as a part of the HML band. Then, there's Africa by Toto (say that in Spanish. LOL) This song was pretty challenging for a marching band song. And, one of the most memorable for me was Conga by Gloria Estefan. I fondly remember playing that song at the Opa locka Parade. What fun!

What are your top 3 band songs and why?
