anonymoose_auSaturday 11:54pm: Man, it's late and I'm damn tired, but I'm gonna do the Friday Memes because I can't just leave 'em hanging like that!
Five on Friday
Father of Mine
1. What characteristics do you think are most important in a father figure?
Ummm...understanding, patient (LOL! that's gotta be hard!), good sense of humour 'cause we all have to laugh...(although now it sounds like a personal add :OP) Open minded and stuff like that.
2. Do you think you are, or will be, a good father? And for the ladies, do you think the men in your lives are, or will be, good fathers? Why?
Dunno, guess so, although my big bro might be a bit of meanie as a father! And er...I sure can't imagine my little bro having kids.
3. How would you characterize your relationship with your father? What are the challenges, habits, or circumstances that make it unique?
Dad rocks! :OD And seeing as I'm the only daughter I get a bit spoiled...we never got pocket money, but Dad will buy my bros and I little things if he'll think we'll like 'em (sure they're from the Two Dollar Shop, but they're still cool). Dad and I also have anxiety issues in common, although he doesn't really sympathise with that or any of my often complaints about my aches and pains, LOL! But I enjoy spending time with Dad although sometimes it's hard to have a convo with him now he's gone a bit conservative on us. Alas!
4. What is your fondest memory of your grandfather?
Maternal Grandpa: Going on the yatch! Grandpa used to own a yatch called Eureka which he sailed all over the world, back then I didn't get motion sick, so it was a lot of fun going on it and we had lots adventures. Saw porpoises and sailed through a storm! We even saw the New Year's Fireworks from it. Good times, good times. :O) It was fun sailing with Grandpap.
Paternal Grandpa: Died before I was born, so I never knew him. He liked ice skating though, so that's something we have in common.
5. Would you ever honor the men in your family by naming your children after them? Why or why not?
Well, no, if only because I'm not having any kids...plus I kinda have names picked out all ready :OP I could give them hypothetical kids my brothers, father's, grandfathers (have the same name), or Uncles by giving it as their middle names. But that's all speculation!
FOUR FOR FRIDAY
Q1 - Name It: If you were asked to put together a band, what would you name it and what kind of music would you play?
LMAO! You've obviously never heard my sing have you? Or play a recorder. Anyway,l I suppose if I had no choice I kiss I'd call it The Moose Experience, and we'd play Beach Boys and whatnot style music, 'cause I hate the new stuff. :OP
Q2 - Food: When was the last time you ate cake, and what type of cake was it?
Geee..it was a while ago...chocolate cake I believe...good eating!
Q3 - eBay: Have you ever bought or sold something on eBay? If so, what did you buy (or sell)? If not, why not?
Brought stuff on Ebay yep...the last thing I brought was a Robotech novel to complete my collection, well almost...the other two books I don't have were said to be crap though.
Q4 - Training: How useful do you think diversity or sexual harassment training is in the workplace?
Dunno, never had any...but that sort of stuff needs to start early, like throughout Primary and High School, I mean a person's not gonna suddenly change after one session! It has to be a long term thing. That been said it's still a good idea to lie down the law.
Friday Fiver

Friday Forum
1. Which reality show would you rather watch: a group of strangers
living together in a house or a group of cats living together in a
store front?
I'll take the cats! The people are just a pain in the ass to watch, I know, I've seen flashes of Big Brother, man that show is bad.
2. Have you ever made homemade ice cream? Was it good or do you prefer
store bought?
Nope, made homemade glue once with my friend, then I ate half it...don't ask!
3. What was your first summer job?
Ummm...cleaning up my father's classroom at school...he gave my bro's and I $50 for that! Although it was only for one day. The first job I ever got was delievering pamphlets and shit, that SUCKED and paid crap.
4. Who are your favorite magicians/illusionists (David Blaine, Criss
Angel, Dorothy Dietrich, etc.)?
That David Blaine is pretty cool! How does he do it all?! I did hear how he did the levitating thing...LOL rip off that, but it sure looked good on TV. :O)
5. How does your internet personality differ from yours in real life?
Probably not at all, although I may seem a fair bit smarter on the net then I come off in real life...it's hard to put your foot in your mouth when you have to type everything out before 'saying' it.

There was also something else...I can't for the life of me figure it out right now.
Yawn! Well it's 12:30 now and I have to get up early tomorrow because I need to go out and buy some shoes for work on Monday, I can't wear the other ones, my toes are still tender from those!
