Sharing My World 2016 Week 30
Here is my post for Cee’s Share Your World series.
Do you prefer a bath or shower?
A shower. A bath sounds great in principle and it starts out great, but after a while you either stay in too long and you end up in lukewarm water and looking like a prune or it’s too hot and you end up all sweaty. Or perhaps I’m doing it wrong.
Plus a bath uses an immense amount of heated water and I know from personal experience that switching from showers to a bath increases your water bill by an insane amount.
If you had an unlimited shopping spree at only one store, which one would you choose? Why?
An Amazon distribution warehouse sounds good. I guess that counts as a “store” as they store stuff there, but if I choose to translate “store” as shop, possibly not :-(. How about somewhere that sells really expensive cars? No?
You’ve gotta give me one of them, so I’ll take Amazon. They sell everything. I’ll stock up on the best of the best!
If you could be one age for the rest of your life, what age would that be?
Early thirties, I think. That’s pre-aches and pains, but old enough to be all sorted out and for people to take me seriously as all grown up π
List at least five movies that cheer you up.
That’ll be films that make me suddenly laugh out loud or feel-good films
- Expendables 2 (great cameos, loads of people getting shot)
- Planet Terror (horde of zombies getting chopped to bits by a helicopter rotor)
- Die Hard (the ultimate Christmas film)
- From Dusk Til Dawn (because, vampires)
- Starship Troopers (kill the bugs!)
- Aliens (kill the bugs!)
- Star Wars eps 4, 5 and 6
Bonus question: Β What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?
Last week at work I got a promotion! Now I’m a “Systems Architect“. I’m gonna architect the hell out’a this job. Next week I’m looking forward to sampling my new purchases. Death or glory awaits!

Hot sauces and cheeses—sounds great to me! Congratulations on the promotion as well, Ali. Maybe they should offer Amazon gift cards for “x years of service” and/or as part of a promotion package (just thinking out loud here)? Anyway, have a wonderful week . . . P.S. Oh, in case I don’t get to add a comment there, I enjoyed the ‘throwback’ Friday Fictioneers you posted. Of the two I’ve had time to read, both touched on climate change and were creative/fantastical (if sad).

Oh no! Those hot sauces and all look tempting. I’m never quite sure about pickle – maybe that’s what we put over a block of holiday cream cheese where I come from? Also enjoyed your list of cheerful movies π
