Friday Five and other stuff

Since apparently I need to improve my typing and speed (apparently reading fanfiction and playing games doesn’t do shit for said skills *beams*), I’m starting some blogging tools, such as Friday Fives and other things…they will be marked for easy skipping.

Friday Fives:
(yes, I’m aware it’s not friday)

1. When did you last use the edge of a coin (or a knife blade) as a screwdriver?

I’ve never used the edge of a coin (mostly because I deal with small screws, but the last time I used a knife was when I was too lazy to track down my small screw kit and used the edge of both a steak knife and a butter knife on one of the screws of my now broken laptop monitor (no, these do not have to do with one another). I also used a fork prong.

2. When did you last use a wire coat-hanger to break into a car?

Er, never. But mostly because I can’t figure out how to do so. I did make my mother drive half an hour to bring me my spare keys though, last time I locked myself out. *grins*

3. When did you last use food or drink as medication?

Never, I don’t feed my emotiong…I medicate them with actual medications. Though I do often use food in order to take my medications…can’t swallow pills well.

4. When did you last use your cellular telephone as a flashlight?

Don’t own one. Used mum’s though during a four day black out two years ago…she promptly yelled at me for running down her battery before we could find the candles.

5. When did you last use a paper clip for any purpose other than to clip paper?

*shrugs* No idea, but I’m pretty sure I used it to shoot a rubber band across the room.

The Daily Meme:

And today’s daily meme is:

Give Me Five staples on your grocery list besides milk, bread and eggs.

1. Nissin Souper Meal.
I buy like…ten of these at a time, mostly due to the fact they’re usually under a dollar each.

2. Tillamook Cheese
Not only is it local…I’m a cheese-a-holic. I just wish it was cheaper so I could buy like…twenty blocks at a time.

3. Fruit flavored Sodas (such as Fanta)
It’s another addiction of mine. Well, all soda is, but I MUCH prefer fruit and light flavors.

4. Fruits
Okay, so not so much a staple as I’m poor, but any time I can, there is fresh fruit in my basket. I worship tropical fruits especially.

5. Jelly Belly Beans
…nuff said.
