Good afternoon (well, almost here) hoping to go kayaking later but the rains might move in.

) what is your favorite food; Lots of choose from but I would say a spicy dish of Chines type orange flavored crispy beef. ( with steamed broccoli)
2) what is your favorite beverage; lately flavored water
3) what was your favorite job

I had an engineering job designing the chips that make your cell phone work. Other than the enjoyment of research and engineering my supervisor and colleagues really respected me and my supervisor actually told me in a review that I was meant to go far in engineering. Unfortunately that never happened and I got laid off when the company got sold.

4) what was your favorite vacation

Going to Maine - where 1964Dodge lives - with my siblings and their families in this huge house over this beautiful lake. It was the first trip since my divorce that I was with people and happy.I also didn't feel like a 5th wheel.

I go to bed about 9-10pm and read for an hour so lights out doesn't happen until 10:30-11pm

Cornwall 2013- so beautiful and relaxing. I had a horrible year with depression and anxiety and being suicidal and last minute my dad invited me to go on holiday, I felt so down I was going to say no at first but I'm so glad I decided to go. It was so beautiful it lifted my depression and anxiety and made me feel like life is worth living! we had a caravan on a cliff with the view of the ocean, we saw dolphins, everyday we went to the beach, clear blue green water, lovely white sand, the weather was gorgeous hot and sunny all week (not always guaranteed here in the UK!). watched the sunset over the ocean, went to the bar every evening and played games and chilled, came back to find bunnies hopping around every night, waking up to the smell of the ocean everyday mmmm

5) what is your favorite time to go to bed
probably between midnight-1am

Thanks for the tag @JMG
1) what is your favorite food Scallops, pho, or ice cream
2) what is your favorite beverage Anything sweet, like a milkshake or a Frappuccino or something like that
3) what was your favorite job I've never had a paying job, but I really enjoyed volunteering at the library near where I grew up. I mostly got to check out items for patrons, shelve things, and pull them off the shelves for people who had put them on hold (my favorite part-- kind of like a little scavenger hunt, I was really good at it, and a lot of others didn't like that part.)
4) what was your favorite vacation When I went to France/Switzerland with some of my classmates. I mostly liked the parts where I was staying with my host families.
5) what is your favorite time to go to bed Really late/early. I always stay up. If I could choose, I'd just not sleep ever.

What I got from Starbucks today:
Vanilla bean Frappuccino, vanilla scone, and almond croissant. Didn't get a straw though.

5) what is your favorite time to go to bed

When I can sleep (not meant to be sarcastic, but I just don't have a time to go with that)
Sometimes it's 5pm, sometimes it's 1am, sometimes it's 4am it's just a matter of when my brain and body are with it.

1) what is your favorite food. Chicken fried steak. It has to have mashed potatoes, some kind of bread and gravy as side dishes.

2) what is your favorite beverage. Toss up between unsweetened iced tea and whole milk.

3) what was your favorite job. Job I had at a couple of companies years ago as a computer programmer, my chosen profession.

4) what was your favorite vacation. When I was much younger and visiting sights in Texas: The Alamo, San Jacinto memorial, The San Jacinto Inn which back then a prime seafood place, Galveston with the Bishop's Palace and Seawolf Park where there were a number of old World War II ships to tour. The battleship USS Texas was also interesting to see and tour just to see sailors back in those days had to live. Extremely primitive by today's standards now but probably considered luxurious for Naval personnel then. That was when I think I was 12 or so.

5) what is your favorite time to go to bed. When I can no longer stay awake. I tend to early to bed, early to rise, but have NOT became the wealthy and wise portion.
