Friday Five

I'm so close to spring break I can feel it!
1.) Best spring break trip ever?
2.) Do you tell people exactly where you are from, or give them a distance to a larger city?
3.) Have you made a March Madness bracket?
4.) How many road maps do you have in your car?
5.) What is your favorite local band?

1. Geez. What a dud I am. Can't think of any spring break trip I've been on.
2. I couldn't live much more central in Houston, so yeah.
3. No. Basketball? Pfft. No.
4. 2
5. The only one I even know of is Cowboy Mouth. They did a song for a Aeros. It was crap, but whatever. So I guess them.

1.) Tie between Canada (HHOF!) and California.
2.) Distance to a "larger city", not that the city is all that large. Silly New Jersey.
3.) Nah. Don't really follow college sports.
4.) One? Maybe? haha.
5.) If you count the billion bands that come from New Brunswick as "local", either Midtown or Thursday. Aside from that, I'm not big into the local music scene.

1) You must be one of those people who didn't have midterms right after break...
2) I give The City as my location to out of towners. Distance for people new to the area but somewhat familiar with the geography.
3) Nope
4) 1 Thomas Guide. Essential.
5) Can't remember who's local and who isn't!

1.) Ummm, I think I might have gone to Hot-lanta with some friends one year? Maybe...Spring Break was usually for bumming it around my house.
2.) Exact location due to the fact that it is the "larger city" in question.
3.) Nope and I won't either.
4.) Maybe one?
5.) OneRepublic, Matt Kearney and Matt Wertz are all local bands I enjoy. Matt Wertz takes the prize though because he's more loveable than the rest.

1.) Oh I have plenty of exams after break, but I'm still headed to Cali anyway. Normally I manage to have fun every year.
2.) Usually I just say the Twin Cities. That's close enough, half the people I know can't name them both.
3.) Yes. It's already doomed.
4.) uhhh, 1. And it's for Minnesota, but I'm in Oregon?
5.) The ones here are too hippie for me, so I'll say Atmosphere.

1.) Best spring break trip ever? I don't do spring break. I wait until there aren't college kids running around everywhere. Hold on, let me get my cane to get those damn kids off my lawn.
2.) Do you tell people exactly where you are from, or give them a distance to a larger city? I pretty much live in the middle of Dallas, so saying "Dallas" is pretty much accurate.
3.) Have you made a March Madness bracket? No. College basketball bores me. College hockey, though...
4.) How many road maps do you have in your car? None. Although when I go on road trips, I stop at every state's visitor center and get a map. In my apartment, I've got Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, and Minnesota. This summer I get to add Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Arkansas. Damn, that's a lot of state to go through in two weeks.
5.) What is your favorite local band? Are you kidding me? Eff this question. The only band I know of from Dallas, besides the one that I worked for, is Bowling for Soup, and they can rot for all I care.

1. It's a toss up between Cali and Dominican

2. Seeing how I pay taxes to the City of Pittsburgh, that's usually what I say.

3. Some how I got roped into four of them...

4. Ummm one?

5. No idea.
