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!
Saturday 9: Accidentally in Love (2004)
Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.
1) In the video for this song, a young man dances alone in the kitchen while making breakfast for his lady love. When no one's looking, do you often bust a move?
I dance no matter who is watching... ask my family. I used to dance down the grocery store aisles. I danced to the kitchen just a few moments ago. My father used to dance around the house too.
2) "Accidentally in Love" was featured in the animated movie Shrek 2. In this video, a plushie from the movie is shown on their bed. Do you have any plush toys in your bedroom?
My teddy, Ted E. Bear has been with me since I was 3.. I promised he would go to heaven with me. I hope to keep that promise. So, yes I have a few plush friiends.
3) The lyrics liken falling in love to strawberry ice cream that he just can't resist. What sweet treat would hit the spot right now?
Some ice cream with whipped cream on top.
4) He sings about lightening. Astraphobia is the fear of thunderstorms. Have you ever suffered from astraphobia?
Unless you are nuts, everyone should have a healthy fear of lightning storms just not an irrational fear.
My mother was terrified of lightning. As a teen, she and her friends took one last dive when a storm hit. The last one to dive had her insides blown out by a bolt of lightning. My mother dove down to retrieve her and saw that.
5) This song is about falling in love when he wasn't looking for it. Has this ever happened to you? Or have you usually found romance while actively seeking a partner (dating sites, blind dates, etc.)?
I have never actively sought a partner. It just happened.
6) This week's artists, The Counting Crows, got their start in San Francisco. A famous quote, often attributed to Mark Twain, says, "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco." How has the summer weather been where you are?
It's been very cool and chilly at night. Today, though, it was 94 for a bit though.. not too humid, and all in all a lovely day.
7) In 2004, when this song was popular, Mark Zuckerberg launched Facebook. Have you checked Facebook today?
8) Also in 2004, we lost President Ronald Reagan. Before entering politics, he had a decades-long career in Hollywood and appeared in 53 films. Have you ever seen a Ronald Reagan movie?
Yes, I've seen a few like Santa Fe Trail.
9) Random question: Describe your favorite pajamas.
In Winter they are a black pair that have llamas on them and say Fa La La La Llama
In Summer they are light gray with coffee cups and good morning on them.
