Sweet Disaster (2016)
Unfamiliar with this week's song. Hear it here.
1) This video begins outside a convenience store with a sign advertising beer, produce, lotto and an ATM. Will you buy beer, produce or a lotto ticket this weekend? Will you visit an ATM?
A. We bought a lottery ticket.
2) As the video progresses, fountain drinks and donuts are consumed. When you stop for a snack during a road trip, what do you usually grab?
A. A bottle of water and a Milky Way Midnight, though generally I have healthier items (like boxes of raisins) in the car already.
3) The lyrics reference "a river of champagne." When did you last enjoy a spot of the bubbly?
A. Years and years ago.
4) The end of the video features sci-fi/horror images. Is that a genre you enjoy? If not, what kind of books do you read most often?
A. I like fantasy. Actually the ending of the video, which I'd never seen before, reminded me of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I like science fiction but not horror.
5) The trio that makes up The Dreamers are dyed-in-the-wool New Yorkers. If you could live in any city or village in the world, would you move or stay right where you are?
A. I think I would have to travel first and then decide.
6) The Dreamers describe themselves as "impractical." What about you? Do you consider yourself practical or impractical?
A. I'm a nice combination of both.
7) They also won't "listen to those who doubt" them. Sometimes we find the ones who doubt us most are ourselves. What about you? Are you confident, or do you suffer from self doubt?
A. Loads and loads of self doubt.
8) Do you often remember your dreams?
A. I do. I am one of those unlucky adults who have night terrors.
9) Random question: Would you rather get $100 today, or $250 on this date a year from now?
A. $100 now. I might not be around on this date next year. Life has no guarantees.

I agree with you 100% on #9.
ReplyDeleteI must be the only one waiting on that 250. High hopes!!!! Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteGeez- everyone is going for those Milky Way bars. At least we all agree on those lottery tickets. We are smart ladies you know... :)
ReplyDelete#8--I'm so sorry to hear you have night terrors!
ReplyDeleteI forgot to buy a lottery ticket today. Watch all my numbers come up tonight. That would be my kind of luck. Yikes! Sorry about those night terrors. I've only had one or two of those in my life that I remember and that was plenty! Do certain things trigger them? We had friends whose son couldn't take any kind of cold medicine because he'd get them.
ReplyDeleteI too have night terrors occasionally. I hate them!! I ‘ve also had premonition type dreams.Dreams are strange entities. Like you, i’d Take the $100 now. You could triple it and have more than the $ 250 later. Who knows?
