Sam’s Saturday 9: Miss Me More (2018)
On Saturdays I take a break from the heavy stuff and have some fun…
Once again I’m driving up to the Cape this morning so I will not be able to post your comment until this afternoon
Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.
Chosen because October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Learn more and spread the word that help is available.
1) This song is about a girl who ditched her high heels so she wouldn't be taller than her beau. Tell us about the most recent addition to your footwear wardrobe. Do you need to go shoe shopping?
I have to get a new pair of sneakers
2) She sings that she misses the sheets on the bed she made herself. As you answer these questions, is your bed made?
Define “made?”
It has sheets and a blanket but do you mean all tucked and neat… nope.
3) This video shows her in a ring. Have you ever worn boxing gloves?
Nope and I don’t care to do so in the future. I don’t like violence.
4) This week's featured artist, Kelsea Ballerini, got married on Christmas Day in 2017. That makes their anniversary easy to remember. Are you celebrating any birthdays or anniversaries this month?
Yes, my birthday was earlier in the month.
5) Kelsea has been quoted as saying, "Perfect doesn't exist." She worries that we exhaust ourselves "trying to be something that isn't real." How about you? Do you believe your best is good enough? Or do you strive for perfection?
I don’t strive for perfection, but I do like to improve on doing a better job.
6) One of Kelsea's tattoos is a square inside of a circle, aka a square peg in a round hole, on her left wrist. She says it's there to remind her that it's OK to "not fit the mold of what normal might be." Tell us about a time where you felt like a square peg in a round hole.
Um… ever day.
To paraphrase Kermit the Frog… it’s not easy being trans.
7) In 2018, when this song was popular, French President Emmanuel Macron lowered fuel taxes. When it's time to fill your tank, do you shop around for the best price?
Hmm… it was last Tuesday when I was coming home from the Cape, gas was $2.99/gal. On the Cape gas is expensive everywhere. But I usually don’t shop around because my tank only hold 11 gallons of gas and the last tankful I got 65 mpg.
8) Also in 2018, Luxembourg made all public transportation free. When is the last time you rode a bus or train?
Over the summer, I take the bus into P’town (otherwise known as Provincetown). Parking and pedestrian traffic is a nightmare and the bus it only a dollar.
9) Random question: When did you most recently say, either out loud or to yourself, "I haven't got a thing to wear?"
Thursday.
Which reminds me… I have clothes to put in the drier.
Thanks so much for joining us again at Saturday: 9. As always, feel free to come back, see who has participated and comment on their posts. In fact sometimes, if you want to read & comment on everyone's responses, you might want to check back again tomorrow. But it is not a rule. We haven’t any rules here. Join us on next Saturday for another version of Saturday: 9, "Just A Silly Meme on a Saturday!" Enjoy your weekend!

Love your answer to #2, because it enables me to say honestly that my bed is made. ;)
ReplyDelete65 mpg? I am lucky if I get 17. Downhill. With a tailwind.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend!
My bed is tidy but not tucked in... that counts, right?
ReplyDelete$2.99 is EXPENSIVE? You'd better not come to California. I can't remember buying gas with a "2" in the price in years.
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of car gets 65 miles to the gallon?!? That's impressive.
ReplyDeletePrius Prime, and that was all highway driving
DeleteI am with you on #5! I do my best, but always try to improve. Loved your answers! Have a nice weekend.
