Friday Fill-ins

I haven't done Friday Fill-ins for a while.  Tonight seems like the perfect opportunity.  It's still Friday where I am, too.

1. One time, I went a whole day without eating.  But only once!  LOL
  2. The song "Love Train" is something that makes me smile.
3. Seven words I love: compassion, envision, flummoxed, vintage, "You were right."  That's 7 total, right?  Hahahah.
4. I have rarely seen snow; I don't think I could live where it snows regularly.
5. I looked out the window today and saw that my son's truck wasn't parked at the curb.  Where is he?
  6. My husband and I actually like one of the same TV shows, and that's saying something!  We rarely enjoy watching the same things on TV.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to a long, hot bath and a good book, tomorrow my plans include watching my daughter perform at our last football game of the season and maybe taking in a Rockets game, and Sunday, I want to relax, but I have to catch up on some work!
