1. What's the oldest piece of clothing you still own and wear?

2. Favourite guilty pleasure?

3. If you could, would you become the Prime Minister (or President or King/Queen....whoever the governing boss of your country is)? Why or why not?

1. What's the oldest piece of clothing you still own and wear?
I have some pajama pants that have been around 10+ years!

2. Favourite guilty pleasure?
Binge watching netflix/tv series!

3. If you could, would you become the Prime Minister (or President or King/Queen....whoever the governing boss of your country is)? Why or why not?
Heck no- way too much stress! I'm more suited to a trusted advisor type role- I like to be in charge but run things from behind the scenes! Let someone else be the 'face'!

1. I don't really have any clothes that are older than 3.5 or 4 years old. I lost over 100 lbs from 2010 to 2011, and I purged all of my old clothes and started from scratch.

2. Binge watching TV is definitely my favorite guilty pleasure too. If you add ice cream, even better!

3. Wellll.... I don't know. I used to actually want to get into politics when I was in college. I have since become pretty jaded in terms of bipartisanship and dysfunctional government. At this point, I think it would be too frustrating for me. I would like to be some maverick, trailblazer... but, at this moment in time that sounds incredibly unrealistic, exhausting and frustrating. So, NO.

1. What's the oldest piece of clothing you still own and wear?
I have some of my dad's t-shirts from the 70s that he was going to toss when I was in junior high. I saved them and some have survived- I still wear them occasionally. I also have my mom's wedding dress, which is about as old, but I don't wear it so much. It is just a sun dress and I've had it altered to fit me, so I could theoretically wear it more than you might think.

2. Favourite guilty pleasure?
Potato chips, soda, Netflix, and Candy Crush. Preferably all at once!

3. If you could, would you become the Prime Minister (or President or King/Queen....whoever the governing boss of your country is)? Why or why not?
Hmmmmm... the idealist in me says, yes, because I could try to make the changes I think we need. But, realistically, no, because the system is so broken, I don't think I could really fix it even by being in a position of authority.

1. What's the oldest piece of clothing you still own and wear? I have a massively oversized Muse t-shirt I got back in 2001. I wear it to bed when I can't be bothered with pajamas.

2. Favourite guilty pleasure? Binge watching rubbish TV. I've got my mum, step-dad and step-mum addicted to Catfish and Teen Mom 2.

3. If you could, would you become the Prime Minister (or President or King/Queen....whoever the governing boss of your country is)? Why or why not? No, definitely not. I've only just been able to vote the last couple of years, and I'm still trying to figure out the politics here. Even if I did have a clue, it'd be too stressful.

1. No idea. I definitely still have t shirts from high school in my pajama drawer.

2. Binge watching tv and junk food.

3. No way! I'd be tempted if we had an actual monarchy running the show Being president sounds like an insane amount of work and stress with less control than people assume. Also, who would want to work with congress?? That said, I'm a huge politics nerd and I'd LOVE to work in the White House!

1. I just cut up like 30 T shirts to make into a quilt! But I don't wear them anymore. Probably the oldest one I still wear is one of my old jammy t-shirts.

2. Binge watching sitcoms, for sure. Or cop shows.

3. Nope! Too much stress!!!

I still have a pair of jeans from high school. They are the 'cut the grass/work on the house' pair now.

I love to run/bike for hours.

Nope, nothing about being in charge or responsible at that level appeals to me.

I'm impressed!!  Jeans from high school would fit my thigh- maybe!

1. I have a team sweater of C's from 1997 that I wear to bed or to lounge. I love it.

2. Netflix while eating Doritos and having a Pepsi.

3. No way! I'm already so jaded about politics.
