MilSpouse Friday Fill-in

1.What is the longest road trip you’ve ever taken?
I flew from NH to FL, then drove a U-Haul with my bf (now Hubby) from there back to NH (DItY Navy move).  U-Hauls suck for road trips!


2.Do you collect anything? Tell us a bit about it.
Useless pieces of paper.  I save everything, unfortunately.  But as far as the usual collections, like bottle caps and spoons, I don't do any of that.  I don't see the point- I hate clutter.

3.What is your favorite part about being an adult?
Well, it was that I could do what I wanted, whenever I wanted.  But now that I have kids, it all revolves around them.  Funny... when I was a kid, I thought the world revolved around adults, but now that I am an adult, I'm realizing how good I had it.  I guess youth really is wasted on the young.

4.What song brings a tear to your eye?
Styx, "Babe".  It's so dumb, but when Hubby's deploying, all I can think about is that stupid song and it makes me cry.  Ugh, damn you, Styx!

5.Describe your first plane ride (how old you were, where you were heading, etc).
I can't remember how old I was... 8 or 9?  My parents took us all to Disneyworld.  My ears hurt the entire ride going there.  Plus, my mom had us all dressed up for some reason, so I was wicked uncomfortable in this long cotton dress.  So I guess I hated it then, but now I don't mind flying.  I did enough of it when Hubby and I were dating!
