Get a different shopping cart

Dear QotD?ers,

Did I mention that I have to go into work tomorrow? Well, that's why I'm home today, that's why I slept in, and that's why your QotD? is late.
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
What other, non-luxury retail store would you like to have a 3-minute free-for-all shopping spree?

That bouncing smiley face

Dear QotD?ers,
.
Since my feet stayed so warm yeterday, I've decided to keep these two pairs together as the perfect pair. I'll wear them throughout most of the winter. So cozy!
.
Imagine that you've won a shopping spree at (Super) Walmart, the kind where you get a shopping cart and three minutes.
.

Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
What section do you go to?
.
You are not allowed to shop at the gift-card kiosk.
.
Love,
Kristen

"RC Cola and a ..."

Dear QotD?ers,
.
I think I've tried the pink milk before, and I didn't like it. Also, I used to be a powdered mix chocolate milk drinker, never realizing that chocolate syrup make a smoother, less clumpy, chocolate milk.
.
I just heard some rediculous news.
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:

When is the last time you had a moonpie?

...a GOON!

Dear QotD?ers,
.
You may be wondering what took me so long to do today's QotD? Well, even if I had woken up at 7:30 on my day off to prepare it, I couldn't have! Our internet was broken. Specifically, the ComCast server was having problems, but the tech support can only say things like "there was some damage." Whatever, it's working now!
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
What do you see outside the nearest window?

Dear QotD?ers,

I realize that I have a different weakness in regards to being a secret agent: reese's pieces.
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
What did you have for breakfast?

I'll give you three more chances...

Dear QotD?ers,
.
Sabrina, I'm not sure of what to make of your muppet match, but you must have had some very intersting people in your group. Anne, Benno's percussive predictability about Alicia refers to the fact that they are both percussionists. We three are only percussionists currently participating regularly. Amanda, who answers but less frequently, is also a percussionist (with roots in the woodwind family)!
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
Do you consider yourself an agressive driver or a defensive driver?

Down came the good fairy and she said

Dear QotD?ers,
.
My dish is filled with the last of the candycorn. Once it's mostly gone, I'll fill the dish with reese's pieces. Hopefully I'll be able to restrain myself this year better than last. They were so delicious that I ate too many every day and my mouth had an off-taste by the afternoon. but I kept eating them!
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
Who is your favorite muppet?

Little Bunny Foofoo hoppin' through the forest

Dear QotD?ers,
.
The weather has turned pleasantly cool and my feet have already started complaining about the perpetual cold they'll have to live through for the next 5 months.
Justin and I had a good time at the State Fair on Saturday. We saw so much! Have you seen an Egyptian tomb room made entirely out of butter? I have!

Secret Agent: 5 of 5

Dear QotD?ers,
.
Yesterday I had peanut butter and apples for breakfast at my desk. Rather than pack a small tupper-ware of peanut butter, I just brought the jar. I was surprised by how many people were surprised that I had a jar of peanut butter. They all missed the apple slices sitting right next to it and assumed I was eating straight PB.
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
What sort of secret agent gadget would you favor?
.
And since this is the last day of theme week, if there are any secret agent ideas you want to share that I didn't ask about, feel free to include them in today's answer
.
Love,
The Asker

Secret Agent: 4 of 5

Dear QotD?ers,
.
I didn't used to be good at keeping secrets, but now I'm pretty good. The best secret I spilled was a surprise going-away party for a friend in Junior High. I had written a note to a friend and I let her read it - forgetting that I had mentioned the party in my note.
.
The best secret I kept was not telling my best friends that I knew it was them who were playing 'secret admirer' on me. I also kept secret my backfire plan where I asked other friends to send me 'secret admirer' notes, too, confusing the my best friends!
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
What is your weakness* - the thing that the enemy would only use for evil?
.
Love,

*P.S. aside from threatening family and friends, etc.

Secret Agent: 2 of 5

Dear QotD?ers,

Is everyone enjoying theme week? I am!

Dear QotD?ers,
.
I hope you all had a pleasant weekend. I've been working on a craft project and was able to make some good progress.
.
As I mentioned last week, this is a theme week! I hope you were able to deduce from the title that the theme is Secret Agents. If not, I don't think you'd be a very good secret agent or spy.

it's not the battery...

Dear QotD?ers,
.
Yes, chocolate eyeballs, they are pretty delicious. I've got them in my spooky candy dish at work. Also candy corn. I'm doing much better at limiting my candy intake this year than last, but last year I had reeses pieces. Those are even more delicious than chocolate eyeballs.
.

chocolate eyeballs

Dear QotD?ers,
.
I don't know if anyone else is watching Dancing with the Stars, but I'm not sure what to think of Cloris Leachman. Yes, she's zany and wacky, but it's sort of creepy?
.
I'm excited that it's Thursday and I don't have work tomorrow. I'm also excited because next week is going to be another theme week. What theme? Wouldn't you like to know!
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:

woop woop

Dear QotD?ers,
.
I had a safety dream last night. I was in a process unit and was standing within the yellow lines (meaning I should put my goggles on), but I didn't have goggles! or even safety glasses! I was very embarassed by my lack of PPE. That might be the first work related dream I've ever had. Hmm.

Quick! think of a song! What is it?

Winner winner chicken dinner?

Dear QotD?ers,
.
Guessing is closed. Anne's answer of 8 pairs wins by price-is-right standards. I reviewed all my socks yesterday and I currently have 9.5 pairs of frog socks. Alicia gets an honorable mention for guessing that I'd have lost one sock in a pair.
.
If you are wondering, I also have:
6 pairs of cat socks
4 pairs of antlered animalss
6 pairs with winged creattures (bat, chicken, chick, butterfly, duck, penguin)
1 monkey pair
1 super mouse pair
1 turtle
1 polar bear
.
That's just the animal socks. I also have lots of colors, patterns and objects (ex: VW Beetles, NASA moon boots) Last night after I finished, I asked Justin if my sock wardrobe indicated I was a 5-year old girl. Interesting fact: When I was 5 I hated socks.
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
What did you hate when you were 5?

Gringo's: where white people go to eat Mexican food

Dear QotD?ers,
.
Yesterday I restrained myself from talking about how good this banana bread is because you are probably tired of hearing about it. But seriuosly, it's a delicious breakfast and we are running out of it. I dreamed of it last night. TamiJean, I'll post the recipe at some point.
.
It's Friday! Have I mentioned that there are picnic tables where we can enjoy our lunch in the sunshine? I'm really glad because 1) I don't get outside enough 2) I can defrost from the overkill AC in the building.
.
Now for a question that I really don't know the answer to.
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
How many pairs of frog socks do I have?

Southtown Ford, South on 35, Alsbury exit, Fort Worth

Dear QotD?ers,
.
Today's post has nothing to do with purchasing a car and everything to do with catchy jingles of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex in the 90's. "Call 267-8433/ Because the next best thing to new is Dalworth Clean!" FYI rest of Texas: Before he became the Texas Hammer, Jim Addler was simply known as the "tough, smart lawyer."

PaRTY! PiZZA PaRTY!

Dear QotD?ers,
.
Seriously, this banana bread is great. Anyway, it's October so flip your wall calenders. ~flip~ Ah, this month I get to look at an autumnal ecosystem called Skeenykill Pond (in New Jersey). I need to flip my kitty calender at home still.
.
For the moment some of you have been waiting for: Let's Guess your Lies!
Go back to this day's answers, review and decide which you think is the lie for each participant. At that point you may answer in shorthand format (George Washington: #2) or you can share your thought process on why you chose as you did for each person. You do not have to chose for everyone, since some of you have never met each other, but give it a try!
Also, don't read anyone else's response before you formulate your own.
Also, don't respond to your own Three Truths and a Lie. That will be a question for later.
.
Today's Question of the Day? is:
.
What is everyone lying about?

Loooove,
