As much as I don't like camping or anything that doesn't involve a bed and indoor plumbing, I do enjoy fishing. It's one of those things we did a lot as kids, but I can count on one hand with fingers to spare how many times I've been fishing in the past decade...or two. Deep Sea Fishing is something that I've yet to experience, but is on the short list of things I gotta do before I'm unable to pull the fish into the boat unassisted.
This is a picture of my friend Karla on her hubby's week-long company retreat in Cabo San Lucas. I'm obviously working in the wrong industry.
I'm also green with envy. She tells me that they pulled in seven of these babies out of the blue. They had them for dinner that night.
Hope they left some in there for me.
Someday, rebar....someday.
Blame Jen. She started it. Take my FRIEND TEST and see how well you think you know me. Here's the scoreboard. Of course, I only got 50% on Jen's test, so I suppose I shouldn't throw stones.
[Update: So far my older sister has gotten the highest score - which makes sense in a way, she's gained a lot of insider information over the years. Although I have to admit I was surprised that she got the nickname question correct! Most of those were obscurely used by very few people for very short periods of time. Congrats, lady! You big know-it-all freak.]
In other news, last night our Quizzo team DOUBLE SECRET PROBATION scored our second WIN (in five weeks of play.) Woot! We usually end up in the top three, but this was a solid and truly noteworthy finish. We were in a three way tie for first at the end of the 6th round. In the final round, we beat the closest team by 30 points (we only missed one question and nailed the bonus.) We also set a new record high (for our pub) with our score with 830 points! The satisfaction of winning (and scoring a schweet Budwieser bottle opener/key chain) makes it worth staying up past my bedtime!
*** I have put the answers to the Friend Test in the comments of this post. If you're interested in finding out what you may have missed, click on. But no cheaters, because honestly, they never prosper...and in this economy, you really want to hedge your bets in that arena. ***
