Saturday 9: Miss Me More

 
Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions!


Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.
 

Chosen because October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Learn more and spread the word that help is available.

1) This song is about a girl who ditched her high heels so she wouldn't be taller than her beau. Tell us about the most recent addition to your footwear wardrobe. Do you need to go shoe shopping?  I might buy some new Sketchers but not sure.  I like the wild ones...  I just wish they came in my size!


2) She sings that she misses the sheets on the bed she made herself. As you answer these questions, is your bed made?  No, because it's 4 AM Friday, and too early.  Someone's still in it.

3) This video shows her in a ring. Have you ever worn boxing gloves?  No.

4) This week's featured artist, Kelsea Ballerini, got married on Christmas Day in 2017. That makes their anniversary easy to remember. Are you celebrating any birthdays or anniversaries this month?  Just a Wedding anniversary.

5) Kelsea has been quoted as saying, "Perfect doesn't exist." She worries that we exhaust ourselves "trying to be something that isn't real." How about you? Do you believe your best is good enough? Or do you strive for perfection?  I am an primarily an artist and a craftsman.  So, I strive for perfection.  It's probably an illness. lol  Certified Mania even.  


 
6) One of Kelsea's tattoos is a square inside of a circle, aka a square peg in a round hole, on her left wrist. She says it's there to remind her that it's OK to "not fit the mold of what normal might be." Tell us about a time where you felt like a square peg in a round hole.  I feel that way all the time.  That's OK, isn't it? 

7) In 2018, when this song was popular, French President Emmanuel Macron lowered fuel taxes. When it's time to fill your tank, do you shop around for the best price?  Always, and you do know, don't you,  there is an app for that?


From EdWeb's Page
 8) Also in 2018, Luxembourg made all public transportation free. When is the last time you rode a bus or train?  When I was still volunteering at the UN gift shop in Balboa Park, several years ago, I rode the city bus.  The buses in our massively spread out city are very inconvenient.  We also have the trolley, but it's seats are very uncomfortable, and so the bus fleet still gets my vote.  Thank the vandals for the hard seats...

9) Random question: When did you most recently say, either out loud or to yourself, "I haven't got a thing to wear?"  What I usually say is, "Too bad; I'm wearing this and if they don't like it, they can lump it."  I've left the "World of Fashion" well behind me.

    1. Boy, Kwizgiver, I hear you. And, the way that "the norm" has gone in this country, has proven that to follow it, is, one, deadly, and two, undesirable.

  3. I think living a conventional life is boring. Yay for all us square pegs!

    1. Thanks, Lori. There's not a lot of money in alternative lifestyles, but there is a whole lot more fun in them. Thanks for reading my blog. Have a great week and enjoy the Fall weather!

    1. Aren't they great? I'm getting two pair as soon as I find some I really like. Our Sketchers shoe store closed several years ago now, but I'm sure they are still at the malls. Have a Happy week.
