double rainbow all the way across the sky

Dear QotD?ers,

Once, at a fancy wedding reception, the dinner included three types of mashed potatoes: sweet, regular and something else. It seemed so decadent, having three potatoes on one plate. I was incredibly tickled and enjoyed them all!

Today was ice cream day at work. I got a strawberry popsicle.

Today's Question of the Day? is:

What does a double rainbow mean to you?

Love,
The Asker

mmmmmmmmmm, potatoes

Dear QotD?ers,

Did you see that? Our weekend guest commented on the last post! Thanks Moana, we are so glad you could come. We ate good food, saw Toy Story 3 (and cried, except for Justin, who denies crying), and played about every non-traditional boardgame we own. And all the while we chatted and gossiped and told stories about our lives. It was the best sort of weekend.

Today's Question of the Day? is:

What is your best potato eating experience? Don't have one? make one up!

Love,
The Asker

not-Kofi is coming!

Dear QotD?ers,

The bear in my caroon movie would be a koala (not a real bear, but it's my movie) and his friend would be a walabi. These two would have fun, australian accented adventures in their hot air baloon looking for the last kukabura in a gum tree.

In other news, a great friend of mine is flying into town in the afternoon. It may be rainig a lot, limiting our activities to those indoors.

Today's Question of the Day? is:

What activities do you like to do with out of town guests?

Love,
The Asker

bears in baloons

Dear QotD?ers,

I think you know what I want more of for year three: more participation! Having a personal blog is totally sweet, but when you QotD?ers join in, it becomes a conversation. If you don't like my question, you don't have to answer it. You could comment on the random story I've shared with you, or share your own. I won't mind. TamiJean and Anne do it all the time and it's a lot of fun. I know you are out there... reading this.. all sneaky like.
Also, I REALLY want to get motivated and do Choose Your Own QotD? Adventure this year.

It started raining again today. Good news though, Hurricane Bonnie won't be making her debut this week. I am particularly glad about this because I have a friend flying in for the weekend and I'd hate for her to have to cancel or come to us with San Antonio when we evacuate.

Today's Question of the Day? is:

What animal would you choose to pair with a bear* in a cartoon movie about hot air baloons?

Love,
The Asker

*bear type of your choice

telll me

Dear QotD?ers,

It's about time I answer some of my own questions:
7/6: For the 4th, we packed up some bug repellent, two camp chairs and drove out to the frontage road to watch fireworks. We found this spot last year, and it's pretty great! And then I sang along with the radio on the ride home. They were playing patriotic songs. I really impressed Justin with my singing of the 1812 Overature.
6/29: As Queen, I would force everyone to understand what a kolache is, and how it is different than a pig-in-a-blanket.
6/28: We really only know the good neighbors and the Canadians. I've talked to a few of the others. I still have this plan that we are going to invite our immediate neighbors (all around) for a homemade icecream party some summer weekend.

Good! now that we have all of that squared away, on to the question!!!!! !!

Today's Question of the Day? is:

What do you want to see more of from QotD?as we go into the third year of blog form?

Love,
The Asker

I'm tracking your activities.

Dear QotD?ers,

I would get QotD? blog some question mark socks. Of course, I'd get myself a pair to match.

It has been an eventful weekend. We went roller skating on Saturday night with one of my high-school friends. I hadn't been since Junior High, and started off a little wobbly. By the end of the evening I was doing great... until... UNTIL... the end of the girls-only song, as Stacy and I were getting off the floor, I totally bit it. I fell back, and I'm still not sure how I landed, but based on my aches and pains, I'm guessing I held onto a railing with my right hand - taking most of the fall impact, then onto my butt and right forearm. I have no bruises, surprisingly enough. Then tonight we went over to a couple's house for dinner and played 3 board games with them! Cascarones, Robots and Space Depot. It was a lot of fun. Man, I like having friends that want to play games.

Today's Question of the Day? is:

What did you do for 4th of July?

Love,
The Asker
