Saturday 9 - Nope

While I love me a good Saturday 9, just hearing the name of this week's song artist makes me want to punch him in the face.  I do not have Bieber-fever, in fact I think he's a little sh*!  So I'm NOT linking the song! :)
1) This song is a plea for a second chance. Are you good at forgiving/forgetting?  I actually am not.  I'm probably the world's biggest grudge holder.  If I let my heart make the decision,  it often says, "You're dead to me!"  I have to constantly remind myself that...
 2) "Little sh*!" asks his girl to "forget this." What have you done/said recently that you wish could just be forgotten?  I've been pretty well behaved recently, so I don't think there is anything that I've regretted.  The year is young, though.
3) "Little sh*!" says he needs just 6 hours sleep every night. How about you? How much sleep do you require to feel sharp?  On average, about 6 hours a night is what I get during the work week.  I'd like 10-12, so I make up for it on the weekends.
4) "Little sh*!" D&G underwear, which can cost as much as $102/pair. Sam may be crazy, but there's no way she'd spend that much on underwear. What's something you're willing to splurge on?  Shoes!!!
5) He may be picky about underwear but not cuisine. He loves Big Macs. If we were going to McDonald's, what would you order?  The fries, of course.   
6) When it comes to healthier fare, "Little sh*!" has told fans he enjoys snacking on bananas and grapes. What do you reach for between meals?  When grapes are in season, they're a favorite.  I also keep nuts and Kind bars in my classroom for recess time.
7) Performing in Germany, "Little sh*!" told a girl who approached the stage, "Ich liebe dich” and she fainted. Have you ever fainted?  Yes, three times.  The first time, I was about 8 and my family and I were watching the show Emergency One.  The doctor on the show performed a spinal tap and, after I asked, my dad told me what it was I fainted.  The second time, I was up in San Francisco with a friend of mine's family.  We were making Dim Sum and I was in charge of mushing the meat and spices up with my hands.  I don't know if it was the texture or that my hands got cold, but I passed out onto the kitchen floor.  And the last time was when I was 15 and taking a required health/first aid class.  The teacher had told us that someone passed out in the class before mine, and then as he started lecturing about going into shock, I passed out, fell out of my desk, and onto the floor.  I haven't passed out since, but often feel like I'm going to when I get my eyes checked - weird.
8) As a kid, "Little sh*!" was teased for being one of the shortest in his class. What do you recall being teased about in school?  Nothing specific, just regular kids stuff, but all pretty painless.  No scars.
9) Random question: Will you be watching this weekend's Super Bowl?  Wah, wah, wah!  No, I really could care less about it.  If the Pats are playing, I'll check the scores, but other than that I don't even know who is in it this year.  I'm always up for a good party, but not on a Sunday night.  So Super Bowl Sunday means nothing to me.

  2. You really don't like Beanie, do you! :) My brother faints when he gets his eyes examined. So you're not alone in that.

    1. It's feigned hatred, since other than the tabloid coverage of him, I know and care very little.
      I've had to put my head down between my legs on several occasions there.

  4. There's something essentially weird about him. It's a bit like thinking that Emma Watson is 25 years old. Mind you Daniel Radcliffe got over it, but when I think Culkin it's the 1994 image that springs to mind.
    I don't think I know his music in any way that matters. But I did hear he was getting edgy, going rock-an-roll.

    1. I don't know his music either. I wouldn't even know it if I heard it. He is (or is portrayed as) just a dumb 20 year old who thinks he's much cooler than he is. But I've never understood the "love" over a star - rock, movie, what-have-you. The passing out, the screaming, the crying, makes no sense to me.

  5. I agree.. I cannot stand HIM and almost didn't do the challenge because of it. *laughs* Enjoyed your replies!

  6. I think it is worth spending a bit more on a pair of shoes that are good for my feet

    1. I agree. I'm now too old for cute, uncomfortable shoes. I now opt for cute, comfortable, but more expensive shoes. Those cheap knockoffs are like torture when one is on her feet most of the day.

  7. Ha! I've always disliked him on general principle, but I listened to a song on a music blog not long ago and had to admit it wasn't that bad.

    I've reached an age where I honestly don't hold grudges any longer. I have enough sh*t going on in my life at any given time that I don't have the energy or desire to hold on to things from the past. Water under the bridge.

    I've never passed out.

    Splurges? Books, music, jigsaws!

    And I'm with you on the McDonald's fries!

    1. I do agree with moving on after a wrong doing, but I can't forget. I don't have any need to make the other person "pay" for it (mostly :)) but I'm not able to fake it either.

  8. Well, heck...we're human. I don't think anyone really ever forgets. That can be a good thing, though, to keep us from making the same mistake twice. Fool me once , shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. ;)

  9. It's very important to have enough shoes, and a choice, and a reserve, and another colour, and..... Well, you know.
