Anyway, thanks for putting up with my multiple personalities. LOL! On to the fun stuff!
KIMBER & BERLEEN!
at once a week...a great milestone
Welcome to the September 2nd edition of
Thursday Thunks!
(which we always seem to post on Wednesday)
Where we make you think a little bit before you blog!
We pick a subject, and your job is to interpret it anyway you want.
Write about it on your blog... simple as that.
Maybe you can interpret it as a picture - we don't care!
Please only leave a link if you have written a Thursday Thunks post.
Don't forget to go visit the other participants' blogs.
Read and comment about all their Thursday Thunks responses!
That's what all this is about after all, isn't it?
We'll have so much fun and become lifelong friends....

The TT questions are brought to you by Bud, the color of my neighbor's wife's eyes and the number 33,333.
1. Would you rather have a pet hippo or a pet elephant? I'd rather have a tigeress, but since that's not a choice, I'll take an elephant. They're better for travel than hippos and mine can help cleaning chores, such as washing the car and and watering the garden.
2. Why do you think bananas are shaped the way they are? Aren't real bananas round?
3. In one word (OK, you can go three to four MAX) , what do most people describe you as? Crazy--in a fun way!
4. Choice (stupid but a choice…): Loss of vision, ability to speak or hearing - which do you choose? (you have to choose one....) It's like a law. But we can't make you. That's rough. I might choose vision, but I'd miss the sights of nature and people's facial expressions. I really wouldn't miss talking--but singing would be hard to give up. Hearing...there's no way I can give up music and the sounds of nature. Life would be so boring without sound! Vision really doesn't impress me. What with technology and most of my conversations happening via text or social networking, I don't think I'd miss speech that much. So, I'd give that up.
5. Do you like lemons? Do you use them to clean with or just as a food source? Or are you saving them up for 2012? I like so eat them!
6. When you are feeling icky with that sickness feeling, what is your first choice for feel-better medicine? Ginger ale!
7. You are starving. You have not had anything to eat for days. In front of you is poison ivy, a live hissing cockroach, and a rotten stinky piece of some sort of mystery meat to eat. Which would you pick and why? I might choose the mystery meat--but on the other hand, I don't want that nearly un-killable cockroach vying with me for that meat.
8. Who was the last person you bought a present for? What was it? Will you buy Berleen one? I bought a special friend a silver-gray fedora. Fedoras rock! If she likes them--sure.
9. Name 3 things you want your kids to learn before they grow up. (If you don't have kids, feel free to explain to the other players why you chose the “no kids“ choice. Yea. I know. (Those who have children will NEVER get it. And no, don‘t explain it…) Well, IF I do have kids, I only want boys--girls are too moody and complicated. Trust me...I would know. ;) I want them to learn responsibility, respect (especially toward women), and critical thinking.
10. What was your favorite toy as a child? What happened to it? I had a favorite stuffed animal. Her name was Lamby. I still have her--and many other childhood stuffed animals--on a shelf by my bed.
11. If you could paint your house ANY color you wanted and your friends, family & neighbors would love the color from the moment they saw it, what would it be? Hot pink, of course!!
12. If the Pillsbury Dough Boy got into a fight with Mrs. Butterworth who would win? And would anybody get hurt? And do we seem desperate even asking? Mrs. B.--hands down. Have you seen the spatula/spoon in her hand? My mother used to spank me with one just like it. Besides, the Dough Boy looks like a total momma's boy. One swat of Mrs. B's spoon, and he'll step in line! Yeah, you do sound rather desperate, but you sound more hungry, actually.
13. What was the last thing you would guess that Kimber took a picture of? No idea--kids or flowers, maybe?

I also have a hard time choosing between themes, this one is gorgeous though! You're right we have a few answers are the same! ha ;) Lamby looks darling! I have a few stuffed animals too and I'm not getting rid of them no matter how old I am. Thanks for stopping by and commenting :)
Same here! I'm keeping my stuffed animals forever!
We go through a lot of ginger ale around here when someone is sick. The rest of them still like it, but I can't stand it if I'm not at death's door.
Crazy in a fun way totally works!
Have a great Thursday!

I totally didn't think of the ginger ale for sickness (although I'd do Vernors in Michigan!)
Happy Thursday!
You had me at the elephant washing your car! Great job. Thanks for playing...
I didn't think about making the elephant earn his keep (my pets are basically freeloaders)
I want to change my answer!
Ace: when ginger ale fails, I use saltine crackers. :)
Harriet: Yes, sometimes I even scare my friends...but, apparently, that's part of my charm. Haha!
Bud & Eric: any creature that eats THAT MUCH has got to earn its keep! Besides, I could use the extra dough from using the elephant to wash others' cars! Hehe!
I chose ginger ale as well. Really takes the hurt off the boo-boo. And I didn't think of making the animal earn its keep. I chose the hippo, though. Reminds me of the dancing ones in Fantasia...
Cheers!

Debster: I think the entire neighborhood just heard me scream in excitement. Not only is that my favorite part of Fantasia, but the music (Dance of the Hours) is one of FAVORITE pieces of classical music.
Being a ballerina myself as a child, I loved dancing along with all those animals in that movie!!
