What is your favorite show on TV right now? Teen Mom 2; Last Man Standing, although the new girl playing Kristen is *thisclose* to ruining it for me.
What is the last movie you saw in the theatre? The Hunger Games I think. It's been awhile.
If you had an hour of time without kids or DH/SO, how would you spend it? Go get a massage.
If you had 50 bucks to spend on anything right now, what would it be? A massage!

I so don't get out to the movies much anymore. 
DH really wants to see Skyfall so we'll see if we get out to see that...
If you had an hour of time without kids or DH/SO, how would you spend it? Maybe shopping for Christmas presents and/or some clothes for me. I can't shop with other people. It's weird. And DD isn't patient enough for my browsing. Thank goodness for internet shopping, right??!!
If you had 50 bucks to spend on anything right now, what would it be? See above.
(Or I'd buy a spa gift certificate for me to use later....)
What was the best vacation that you have ever gone on? Honeymoon to New Zealand! I can't wait to go back. I want to move there.
What was the best concert you have ever been to? Tough one. I used to go to concerts all.the.time. (And I have some (semi) crazy concert stories, too - sneaking back stage, fake backstage passes....) But I can't even remember what the last concert I went to was. Hmmmmm... But I think one of the first real crazy concerts I went to (like being on the floor in the mosh pit) was Smashing Pumpkins back in the late 90s and I think I will always remember that one.
When will you start TTC again? How many kids do you want to have? Undecided on both. DH and I will probably wait til after the holidays to discuss and maybe we'll start then. I'd love to wait a few years but we're older so I think it's going to be sooner rather than later if it happens. I think we are 75% committed to a second. I'd be open to a third (maybe), but I think DH is done with 2 with the idea that we might adopt later...
Do you have any names in mind for the next kiddo? Our boy name for DD (we were team green) was Oliver and that was pretty locked in. However, DD's name (all our girl names) were all over the place (we had dozens) and it took a day or two to really name DD! I'm hoping to be better prepared with girl names next time. I think Julia is at the top of the list.
How crazy do you go with holiday decorating? Not crazy. I love outdoor lights (I put up maybe 4 or 5 strands - not a crazy amount). Last year was the first year we had a (small, fake) tree. I want to put it up again but I'm worried about DD getting to it (it's on a low table). I also bought a (fake this year after trying real last year - a mess!) garland to put over the fireplace. HOWEVER....I am very much in the NOT BEFORE THANKSGIVING! camp (re: Christmas decorations) and I leave everything up til 12th night (Jan 6)
