Re: I am in the mood for a poll
It's really slow here at work. Anyone with me? It is dead here, at least we get to leave 2 hours early today.
1. What is for lunch? Taco Bell (its the closest thing to my office)
2. Do you have anything fun planned in the next month holiday or non-holiday related? We are leaving next Thursday (Dec. 1) to go to Vegas for a long weekend. Nothing overly exciting for holidays, just spending time with family.
3. What is your favorite holiday song? Silent Night
4. Do you get along with your in-laws? Why or why not? Yes I get along with my IL's, they have been very supportive of our IF journey and are just generally nice people.
5. Selfish question: I have off tonight, and plan on having a drink. Suggestions? I am not big into mixed drinks (though I love the whiskey sours my FIL makes), I am more of a beer drinker and I love Blue Moon, lately I have been Loving Sam Adams Octoberfest, but I bet it won't be around for much longer.
It's really slow here at work. Anyone with me?
1. What is for lunch? I went to Bountiful Bread and had a half chicken caprese sandwich and a cup of chicken/potato/spinach soup.
2. Do you have anything fun planned in the next month holiday or non-holiday related? We are going to the finger lakes the weekend after this one for their annial Deck the Halls wine tasting celebration! I am very excited! We get a wreath made out of vines, an ornament at each winery, a wine tasting and food pairing at each winery, and a cook book with all the food recipes in it.
3. What is your favorite holiday song? I really love Sarah Mclachlan's wintersong. My favorite traditional song is Christmas Time is Here.
4. Do you get along with your in-laws? Why or why not? It depends. I mean, I love them, but they annoy the heck out of me. They mean well, but they can be oversensitive and extremely selfish. They also are a tad socially awkward and act completely different (and by different I mean weird) around other people. Around just me and DH they are fine. They are the type of people too that like to look perfect around others...but it doesn't usually work. lol. I usually only like spending time with them if I can have some wine while doing it. Again, they mean well, but yeah, they are a handful.
5. Selfish question: I have off tonight, and plan on having a drink. Suggestions? I am thinking some warm spiced wine, but I am not 100% sold on it. :-)

1. What is for lunch? Don't know yet. I have yet to go downstairs to the cafeteria to see what's down there
2. Do you have anything fun planned in the next month holiday or non-holiday related? I have a jewelry party in a couple weeks. That's about it.
3. What is your favorite holiday song? I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm by Kay Starr
4. Do you get along with your in-laws? Why or why not? I get along with them. I'm not a big fan of FIL because he's an emotionally abusive jerkhead, but I like my MIL
5. Selfish question: I have off tonight, and plan on having a drink. Suggestions? Pinot Noir? That's my go-to when I want to get cozy on the couch.
