Friday 5 - Five for 5's Fifth

Happy Friday!  Tomorrow begins a long weekend for a good many of us, right?  I am thrilled to have a three day weekend and pleased to be doing a Friday 5 meme once again :-)  Apparently last week concluded the 5th year of Friday 5's existence, so this week is a celebration of that.  I am all for celebrations, so let's go!

1. Of the five weekdays, which is the easiest to get through?  That's easy!  It is always Friday.  Every other week it is one of my days off...and even when I am working, it is Friday!  Surely the most beloved of all the weekdays.

2. Which of the five little piggies is the most bizarrely characterized? For some reason I've always found it a bit disquieting to imagine pigs eating roast beef.  Just seems sorta wrong somehow.  Plus, it's the middle piggie, who I've always assumed was a bit of a trouble maker...

3. Of fire, earth, metal, water, and wood, from which do you draw your power? Wasn't sure how to answer this one, so I did what any normal person would do.  I took some online "which element am i" quizzes.  I went the extra mile and took three of them...and they ALL said I was Water.  So there you go.  Water.

4. Haribo Gummy Bears come in five flavors: pineapple (white), strawberry (green), raspberry (red), lemon (yellow) and orange (orange). Which is your favorite?  The difference in the flavors is not terribly overwhelming...but I'm gonna go with lemony yellow.  And Gummy Bears are awesome. 

5. Which of the five basic tastes (sweetness, sourness, bitterness, saltiness, and savoriness) best describes your personality?  Hmmm.  Well, I know that sometimes I can be a bit bitter.  And I like to think I am sweet.  I don't really see myself as too salty or sour.  Maybe I am savory.  Yeah, I like the sound of that.  I am savory.

This was an unusual, but fun, Friday 5.  I hope you'll play along in comments or on your blog!  The Fiveness depends upon it :-)

Have a great weekend and don't forget that tomorrow some of us will be showing off some kind of UTENSIL....maybe even more than one!  You're not gonna wanna miss that....

1) My favorite and easiest day is Sunday... the "fun" day! Chores are done on Saturday... meh.
2)I've got to choose... that poor little piggy that goes "Wee, wee all the way home." When I was little, I thought it meant he had a serious little bathroom issue. What a thing to be known for!
3)I am fire. I'm not sure why... guess it's because Scorpio is a fire sign.
4)Green Gummy Bears for me! I'd rather they were lime, but I'll take strawberry instead, please.
5)Hum... guess I'm an old salty.
It makes me think of an off sense of humor. Yep. I'm a bit off.

I just finished my answers, without looking at yours, but we pretty much matched four out of five of these! Blog twins!

The pinky piggy seems to be a troublemaker for me. It's usually the one that likes to snag on furniture if I walk around barefoot.

Silly: I did think about that whole 'wee wee' thing quite a bit :-) And I have to say that you are exactly who I'd think of as a salty person...and I mean that in an entirely complimentary way!

Tara: Yesssss! Blog Twins! And you make a good point about that pinky piggy. He does take one for the team when there is one to be taken...

I'm with you on #1. The fifth squealing piggy always made me uncomfortable. Why is it crying? I took 4 of those quizzes - one for earth, two for water and the last one my result as "You are most aligned with eearth, water and air." Oh. Red gunny bears. The last one I'd say sweet or savory, most of the time.

Secret: I am somehow not surprised that you got a variety of results with your quizzes...but water figures heavily for many of us it seems.
As for that little piggy, there is always a crybaby in the bunch...
