1. Lemonade or Ice Cold Beer?
Oh, ew. Neither. Beer is just Not My Thing, and while lemonade is nice, I hate to drink it. Give me something cherry flavored any day. Or just give me soda. :)
2. Swimming pool or beach?
Both, depending on my mood.
3. Long weekends here & there, or a 2-week vacation?
I'd do both if I could, but I really do prefer the two week vacation, if only because that gives me a whole two weeks away to try and decompress, to let go of work stress.
4. Destination: Acapulco or Hawaii?
I haven't been to either place, but there's a resort in Hawaii (where, conveniently, we're going for our honeymoon next year) that I really want to go to.
5. Destination: Mountains or Beach?
Both! I love the beach, I love the smell of the salt and the sound of the waves. But, I also love the mountains...depending on what mountains you're talking about. :)
6. Hotel/motel/B&B or camping?
Depends on where we're going. A motel will usually work, as long as there's a bed, a shower, and a toilet, I don't care too much.
7. Carefully planned vacation, or play it by ear?
Carefully planned in that I like to pick where I'm going to go. Aside from that, it doesn't matter what we do, as long as we hit the (usually very small) list of things I want to see wherever I am. Our trip to Toronto is a big example, there were three things we had to do: See California Guitar Trio (which was structured because we had to buy tickets), go to the Hockey Hall of Fame, and go to Niagara Falls. We did almost all of it on our own time, and it was a lot of fun...bratty, snarky cousin aside. That's where the infamous picture of my mom (who's smiling at the camera) and Brett (who's flipping off the camera) comes from.
8. Sneakers or sandals?
Both, sort of. Merrell makes some comfy shoes, and I usually prefer those. I have ugly feet.
9. Air-conditioning or fans?
AC all the way. Fans are great, but if it's really flaming hot outside? AC.
10. Concerts in the park or baseball games?
Concerts in the park, pleeeeeeease. I know this is probably a travesty for some people, but my god, baseball is boring. Yeah, I'll occasionally follow it (the home run race between Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa, for example), but in general? Yaaaawn. :)
