Horked fron Noniyu, answered by Cyd& Grey:
Friday five:
What did you want to be when you grew up?
Cyd: I wanted to be a nurse.
Grey: Singer
Did you follow through? If not, what happened?
Cyd: Uhm, part of it I did, yeah. Was in LPN program, ended up pregnant though and had too much nausea to keep working at the clinic. Also graduated as certified nurse's aide.
Grey: Partially. I do theatre. I'm a better singer than acter though.
Is your life turning out the way you thought it would when you were a kid?If not, is it better or worse?
Cyd: Oh heck no, LOL. But it's uh... it's good though. It's okay.
Grey: Not at all, but I'm okay with that now.
Paradoxes aside, if you could time-travel back to when you were 10 years old, what would you tell your 10-year-old self?
Cyd: Oh, I think... keep the magic and the imagination... don't let people harden your heart. Listen to your mother, LOL. Believe it or not... LOL.
Grey: This too shall pass. You won't always be the outsider looking in.
Cyd: That's a good one.
Do you think the child you were, would like the adult you've become?
Cyd: Part of me, yeah.
Grey: I don't think my 10-year-old self could appreciate what it took to become me now, but I think she'd understand that life is always a work in progress.
Cyd: That's true. Very true. Amen.
***********************
What's on your feet?
Cyd: Nothing. My feet are hanging out from under the covers. You know I hate my feet covered.
Grey: Nothing
Turn to your right -- what do you see?
Cyd: My nightstand.
Grey: Obi-Wan, the ratties & Mulder, a framed sailboat picture
What is the last thing you ate?
Cyd: Fried hot dog with provalone and homemade chili. I like burnt hot dogs.
Grey: Burnt??
Cyd: Well yeah cuz I don't really like hot dogs except on the grill. Boiling takes the taste out of them.
Grey: Spa Cuisine portobello chicken
Cyd: Oooh.
Grey: Yeah, those Lean Cuisines are pretty decent.
What can you smell right now?
Cyd: Hmm... Candle... unscented, but can smell the wick a bit.
Grey: Coconut air freshener, toffee candle
Cyd: Ooh, that sounds good!
Do you wear hats?
Cyd: Occasionally, not very often.
Grey: Not usually, but it's fun to have occasion to wear a great vintage hat, like from the 40's.
Cyd: I always wanted one of those Annie Hall hats.
Grey: Like Diane Keaton?
Cyd: Yep! Uh huh! I usually wear my Mark Martin hat... it has Viagra on it.
Grey: That's funny, thinking of you in a Viagra hat.
Cyd: It's his sponser.
