oh em gee Casey.
k well, i’ll be honest because I know from talking to girlfriends that I’m not alone. basically everywhere there is hair that gets shaved/waxed, there are ingrowns that are annoying BUT! I have a remedy that helps. After shaving anywhere, put on men’s deodorant. I have no idea why it works but my hubby taught me that little tidbit when he discovered that works on his nether regions.
true story.

What would you tell me I most definitely have to eat if I visit your neck of the woods? Cause most people have a certain “dish” they consider a local fave. In Indiana, where i live now, for some reason it’s nasty pork tenderloin. In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where I’m originally from, it’s steak salad with fries. I think food tells a lot about a person. What would you tell me I should eat … you know, if you invited me to visit?

We would cook for you – Daren LOVES to slow roast Prime Rib Roast for guests and while we wait for that late dinner, we have homemade fresh salsa & homemade guacamole & chips. And beers. with lime.
None of this is inherently Canadian tho – it’s just how we roll.

I’m going to ask you my favorite junior high style questions. Because I’m a grown up and stuff.

If you could do any job (besides being a mom) ignoring all educational/cost issues, what would it be?

Can I ask more than one? No? Oh, um, sorry, but I’m gonna…!
A) Would you rather have a deep, very visible wrinkle or a nasty, pussy zit than lingered for 2 weeks and scarred your face?
B) Would you find it difficult to love, support, honour your husband if he became paralyzed? (Knocking on 4 pieces of wood…)
C) Do you like rollercoasters?
D) can you play any musical instruments?
Sorry! So verbose!! :/

a) the wrinkle. i have wrinkles now, so whatevs.
b) does his dick still work? hahaha…I’m sure there would be challenges, but we have already been through a lot together. Our love and commitment is forever. (knocking wood too tho!)
c) yes but not stand up ones!
d) yes – piano. But it has been years.

I have several questions:
1. Are your pants really made from sugar and can I taste them?
2. If Daren and Amy died in completely unrelated plane crashes and if you were independently wealthy and could travel to Florida all the time and your kids were invited as well and they really liked me and you were hanging out by my pool one afternoon while the kids were at Disney with Ada, the German nanny, would you let me touch your right boob?
3. Same question as #2, except left boob.
