1. The only thing that would, I never smell. That would be the smell of Miller Brewery and Mrs Baird's Bread baking at the same time. That was a crazy *** smell! If you ever drove down i35 West south of the 820 loop, you've probably smelt it before.
2. My health. I'm sick. :/
3. 1932 Bolt Action .22 (grandfather), Gold and Diamond ring (grandfather), China from 1940. (Great Grandmother). Grandfather gave me the gun years ago. The others came at time of death.

2. I'm missing last summer. It was a pretty good summer.

4. Cheeseburger and fries from Five Guys.

5. Pit stop at the Pentagon for some paperwork, more paperwork for a special position I'm applying for, grocery shopping, and headed to my parents for the weekend.

1. Cut grass. Dunno why, guess its because I spent a large portion of my childhood cutting it.

4. Bad day doesn't equate to food for me.
5. Grandson will spend the weekend with me. We will do "man stuff" change to stainless bolts on one of my motorcycles, take him to the gun range with me, etc...

5. Plans for the weekend?

1. I used to like to visit Blockbuster / Video World as a kid. I think it was video world, it had this weird smell, they sold popcorn and it was kind of a mixture of butter and plastic in the store. But I still remember that smell, I'd always want to rent games or consoles for a few nights, like the Sega Saturn and.. I dunno, it's hard to explain but I remember the smell 20 years later. Funny how they stick with you.

2. Missing literally or figuratively? If literally, I'm missing a new GFX card even though the one I got is more than capable enough. As for figuratively, I'm probably missing being a kid.

3. Nope..

4. I pretty much turn to to the same stuff all the time. Lasagna is a good one. I also like Chili.

5. Nothing really, just watching the game on Sunday.

1. Grass I cut a lot of lawns in my youth.

2. Rain God it's dry in Texas.

3. A Flag I've got a Japanese flag that my grandfather pulled of a pill box (machine gun pit) at Iwo Jima. It has bullet holes in it and Japanese writing that we believe are signatures.

4. Scotch I like Singletons.

5. Sports My son has an 8:00 soccer game and a 3:30 football game Saturday. There's several good college games on that I'd like to see - Arkansas vs. A&M, Clemson vs. Virgina Tech, Alabama vs. Florida, and Wisconsin vs. Nebraska should be good ones. Sunday the Boys play and I'll probably take my son dove hunting as soon as the game is over.

[WoodysGirl]

1. What smell(s) reminds you of childhood?

Nothing in particular, but I do recall living across the street from a pickle factory.

We used to go there and beg for fresh pickles. Quite different than what comes in the jars for sure.

2. What are you missing right now?

Time.. Not enough of it.

3. Do you own any family heirlooms? How did they come to be in your possession?

I don't, but I was responsible for getting a pic of my great-grandmother restored for my Uncle and Dad. The original was created on some sort of cardboard and my uncle put it in storage and accidentally cracked it.

4. What comfort food are you most likely to turn to when you’re having a bad day?

No comfort food for me. I'm more likely to drink wine.. Wine's made from grapes, so does that count? :

5. Plans for the weekend?

All-day training, wedding shower, football, and chores.
