Saturday 9

 

Mirrors

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions!

Saturday 9: Mirrors (2013)

Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

1) Is there a mirror in the room you're in now?

I’m in my bedroom, where I have a full-length mirror on the back of my door.

 

2) In this song, Justin Timberlake tells his lover he just can't wait till they're together. What are you eagerly looking forward to today?

Well…I was supposed to go to a baseball game today, but it’s been postponed because of rain … so we’re trying to make alternate plans.

 

3) Justin Timberlake is known as a sharp dresser who is always on trend. What item have you recently added to your wardrobe? 

A dress.  I’m  going to my cousin’s wedding next month.

 

4) Justin was an accomplished child performer who appeared on the entertainment competition show Star Search when he was just 11. When Crazy Sam was 11, her only job was loading and unloading the dishwasher, for which she received an allowance from her dad. Did you have chores when you were a kid?

 

I have three younger siblings, we all had  responsibilities.

5) He says he tries never to miss breakfast, even on the road, and his favorite is peanut butter banana pancakes. Given the choice, do you prefer pancakes, french toast, or waffles?

 Oh, you’re killing me.  I was diagnosed with Celiac disease in March.   I can’t eat any of those unless they’re gluten-free.

6) When they were still in their teens, Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears were sweethearts. Obviously it's been easy for him to keep up with her successes and problems over the years. Do you wonder what one of your exes is up to?

  Occasionally.  But not enough to find out.

7) In 2013, when this song was popular, Pope Benedict resigned. Thinking of your working life, have you felt greater stress on your first day at a job, or your last?

The first.

8) Also in 2013, the NHL owners reached an agreement with the players union and avoided a strike. Have you ever belonged to a union?

No.

9) Random question: When was one of the first times when you felt like an adult?

You know, I felt like an impostor for most of my 20’s.  Graduated from college and law school, got my first career-oriented job, moved out of my parents’ house, got married…still felt like an imposter.

And then I turned 30, and my daughter was born.
