Have You Ever...?

I once found a wide-brimmed hat (sort of like a cowboy hat) that was inexpensive and looked great at the same time. So what if it didn’t fit exactly right and was a little tight? I found out a few hours later, when it was giving me a headache. My everyday hat now is a very comfortable (and expensive) Stetson that fits perfectly, and looks better than the other one.

Have you ever watched back-to-back New Year’s bowl games?

Yes, yes I have. Ugh. I don’t like sports on TV. But occasionally Mr.Wrekker is home NewYears day and has watched non-stop football. Me being nosy and talkative about it kinda pisses him off. I have my little ways of getting my wants and needs respected;). Last few years he leaves early Jan.1st to go on his yearly hog-hunt to Texas.
HYE seen a feral hog?

No, but I’m 48.2% certain I saw a black bear rummaging through someone’s campsite at Palisades State Park in SD.

HYE vomited in public view?

NM

Yes, at my job. One minute I was fine, the next…I think it was food poisoning, because I was fine afterwards, but they made me go home.

HYE peed your pants in public?

Maybe? My water broke, in my last pregnancy, in the Grocery store. Standing there looking at the cereal and whoosh, there it was. An ambulance ride and 20 minutes and i had a babe in arms. Easiest delivery ever. She just sorta fell out.

HYE been present at a live birth.

Two. My son and daughter. “The miracle of birth” indeed.

HYE witnessed a live birth in a nontraditional location?

Yes. If you count animals. I was also my daughters labor coach and was in with her at the birth of her first son. Very non-traditional. And stressful. I told her husband he had to do her second child. He did. And had a vasectomy the next week.

HYE went to a zoo just to see a publicized new baby?

It wasn’t planned but by pure coincidence we went through the Omaha zoo the day that they were debuting their new giraffe “foal”. (what’s the proper term for a newborn giraffe?)

HYE fed some snack to a zoo animal even though the zoo operators specifically don’t want you to do that?

(I think foal is pretty Equis specific. Giraffe young is a calf.)

Yes, but not intentionally-Was in the petting zoo section and a llama stole a peanut butter sandwich from my bag.

HYE straddled both sides of a state or country line?

Yes, as a kid on a family vacation. Somewhere there’s a photo of me with one foot in Indiana and the other in Ohio.
Have You Ever won more than $50 on a lottery ticket?

Yes, I won $50 on a doubler ticket once. I’ve won lots of $10-$20 on scratch-offs. I think I’ve ruined my mojo for winning something big by winning many little things. :frowning:
HYE won a pool bet?

Yes, surprisingly, since I don’t follow sports generally, and it was some sort of world soccer thing which even sporty Americans tend to be less interested in. But I made up my own algorithm based on googled statistics and ended up winning a tidy little summary just in time for vacation.

Have you ever watched an entire season of TV in one sitting?

Yes. I just watched the Dr. Who Christmas takeover. Several seasons in a row. I got a bit bleary eyed with it. I have also watched TWD several seasons in a row. I’m kind of a glutton for punishment. I guess.
HYE watched a movie franchise from 1 to ??. Like Rocky or The Godfather? All at once.

I saw all four Indiana Jones movies in a marathon showing at a downtown theater.

HYE walked out of a theater without finishing watching the dreadful movie they’re showing.

Yes, The Man With Bogart’s Face. He looked like Bogie, but his hat was a better actor than he was.

Have You Ever consumed an entire can of Pringle’s in one sitting?

True, during my days of binge eating. Not so much now, cause I buy the little cans.

HYE drained an entire pot of coffee in one sitting?

Yes, when I was in grad school and had long papers to write

HYE donated blood within the past year or 2?

(I’m donating tomorrow)

Not within the last year or two, but I have donated blood before. (And good on you, gkster, for donating!)

Have you ever been a pallbearer at a funeral?
