19 Questions
I saw Syl's post responding to these fun questions, and I wanted to participate too.
1. What movie have you watched most recently? What did you think of it?
I watched Blockerz. It's not really a movie I would default to but my husband says I never watch anything he wants to watch. It was pretty silly but there were some interesting themes covered in a light way.
2. What are you looking forward to right now?
I'm looking forward to completing the leadership program at work. I'll finally get more time back to focus on the rest of the work I have to do. Work outside of work hours is not fun.
3. If you could do anything at all today, what would it be?
Nap all day so that I can have some energy for my cousin's birthday dinner tonight.
4. What's your drink of choice? (Coffee/tea order, alcohol of choice, pop, etc)
Diet coke, preferably fountain, and served with some ice.
5. What's your hair routine like?
I usually shower in the morning so I put it up in a towel for 5 minutes, let it down, comb it, and then put it up with a hair clip. Not good, I know, but I still do it.
6. What's your favorite way to travel?
Probably airplane but I haven't had a flight longer than 8 hours. If that's the case, I'd prefer a cruise because there's a bunch of things to do on there. I get car sick and don't think I'd like the idea of being on a train for too long.
7. Favorite month of the year and why?
October is my favorite month because it falls under my favorite season. No pun intentended. LOL
8. Favorite time of day and why?
When my husband gets home from work. It forces me to disconnect from work so we can have supper together.
9. Do you play or follow any sports?
I used to play a lot more sports growing up. I'm currently playing volleyball in a recreation league and pickleball when I get the chance.
10. What kind of music is stuck in your head a lot lately?
Fetty Wap or Justin Bieber..surprising, I know!
11. Dishes or laundry?
I prefer doing the dishes but not when food gets stuck on the pot. I leave those for my husband.
12. What's something you learned recently?
In the PIE model for career advancement, performance is only 10% important whereas your image is 30%, and exposure is 60%. This was surprising.
13. If you could give a TED talk on anything, what would you talk about?
I have given a TED style talk in the past about being alone vs being lonely. Today, I'd probably give one on how to bargain.

Always advocate for yourself.
15. What's a piece of advice you would give to yourself five years ago?
"Thing are rarely ever about you."
16. Do you believe in luck and superstition?
Sometimes, I feel like we get lucky like a blind basketball shot or when playing bingo.
17. Are you musical? Play any instruments or sing? Would you ever perform for an audience?
I used to play the clarinet and saxophone. Caraoke is fun but I'm not good. The only audience I'd perform for is my husband and my parents lol.
18. Write, type, or speak?
Today, I'll say write, definitely.
19. What do you wish someone would ask you?
I wish they'd ask me, "Can I go to church with you?"
