A little game of "would you rather...?"

Jen @ Brown Eyed Girl tagged me in this little Q & A. Apparently I'm supposed to answer her questions and then ask 8 of my own and tag some of you fine people. Oy. I'm horrible at coming up with interesting questions, so we'll see what I can do.

For now, here are her Q's and my A's.

1. What is your favorite beverage?

Crystal Light Lemonade (pink or original), flavored sparkling water, milk, Diet Dr. Pepper Cherry, Diet Root Beer, Coke Zero, wine (Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio), Vodka and Lemonade, frozen margarita's, Twisted Monkeys! Oh those are the best! It's ice in a blender, Bicardi Limon, lemonade, and a splash of cranberry juice. So good!

2. What is (are) your must have item (s) when you leave the house?

Hmm, beats me. If I'm driving, obviously my purse and cell phone. If I'm riding, usually just myself. I don't like having things attached to me at all times.

3. What is your favorite vacation spot?

Siesta Key, FL; All over Hawai'i (although Kaua'i is my favorite island for relaxing); Palm Desert, CA.

4. Vanilla or chocolate?

Chocolate all the way. The darker, the better. Have any of y'all had the Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake from Cheesecake Factory? Oh. My. Gosh. It is to die for. I was in heaven when I had it three years ago and have been craving it ever since. They probably don't even make it anymore. And Chocolate Fudge Brownie is one of my fave ice creams!

5. Where do you spend most of your time outside of work/home?

Psh, in my car, driving. So exciting. And I'm usually in my car driving to class. Even more exciting!

6. Are you a reader? If so, who is your favorite author?

Oh yes, I am! I've only read three books this summer, which is quite unfortunate. They were all of the same "Jessica Darling" series by Meghan McCafferty (I'd read two of them in high school/college, but had to reread them so I could finish the series). I can't pick a favorite author, though, as I've read hundreds of books in my life (literally. I started reading on my own at 2 1/2.) from a wide array of categories with an even wider array of author's. Judy Blume will always be a fave, though!

7. Other than Blogger, what is your favorite website to visit?

For laughs: peopleofwalmart.com or lamebook.com

For celeb gossip: people.com or radaronline.com

For actual news: CNN.com or yahoo.com

8. Who was your childhood best friend? Are you still friends?
I didn't have a best friend, per se, in my childhood, but I am still friends with my old Derbyshire Court gang! I need to do a post about life on Derbyshire. 25+ years later and our families are all still the best of friends. All of my best friends are from college, and we're still friends.

I tag: (anyone can do this, I just closed my eyes and pointed to a name. Just make sure your answers are funny ;))

For my questions, we're going to do a little, "Would you rather..."

Would you rather:

1. live in Death Valley for a year OR see Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus in concert everyday for a year? (no, earplugs are not allowed.)

2. live off of pickles for a year OR live off of McDonald's for a year? (Three Words: "Super Size Me")

3. give up blogging (writing & reading) for a year OR give up watching TV for a year?

4. be a 60-year-old virgin OR Michelle Duggar**?

5. drive a Smart Car OR a Matchbox Car? Because, really, they are about the same size.

6. marry Snooki OR Mel Gibson (sexual preference aside)? If you are unfamiliar with Snooki, let's say Kate Gosselin.

7. have dinner with Osama bin Laden OR Kim Jong-il?

8. travel to all of the European countries OR visit all 50 states & Puerto Rico & D.C.?

**I actually really like Michelle. She seems like the sweetest person in the world.

Also, yesterday in the fave 80s flick question, I forgot to put "The Brave Little Toaster" What a classic!
