It’s Saturday! Yay. What? No, it’s…I mean…yes, it’s Caturday, too, but that’s not here. That’s over here. Over here, we’ve started a new tradition. And by we, I mean I, because Revis and Jaded are much too respectable to follow me anywhere. I hope.

Anyhow, it’s time for the Saturday 9, hosted by Sam. Here is this week’s interrogation are this week’s questions:

Saturday 9: Too Close (2011)

Unfamiliar with this week’s song? Hear it here. (Wow. I’ve heard that song before, but never paid attention to the lyrics. That really hit home.)

1) This song is about a friendship that turned romantic … and it doesn’t end happily. Have you ever crossed that line with a friend? If so, how did it work out?

Yes. It turned out horribly, just as it did in the song. I really miss my friend, too. I wish there were certain things I could do over again so I could save that friendship.

2) When he was a kid, this week’s singer, Alex Clare, listened to his dad’s Stevie Wonder records. When you were in 7th/8th grades, what music were you into?

That was the late 80’s, so it was the pop of the day. Poison. Def Leppard. Bobby Brown. Guns N’ Roses. Vanilla Ice. MC Hammer. Paula Abdul (shame). Jesus this list is embarrassing.

They just don’t make bands like this anymore. For a good reason, too.

3) “Too Close” has been featured on the TV show, The Vampire Diaries. Do you enjoy shows/books/movies about the supernatural?

Some, yes. I love the Blade and Underworld series.

4) Some of Alex Clare’s tour dates were sponsored by Bud Light. Do you like beer?

No. I wish I did since beer is so much cheaper than every other alcoholic beverage. I’ve tried multiple kinds, too, because my dad claims I’m not his son until I start drinking beer. That’s okay, I’m a momma’s boy anyhow.

5) Mr. Clare trained to be a chef, just in case the music thing didn’t work out. Are you a good cook?

I’m good at what I know how to make. I suppose I should expand my culinary palette, but lazeh.

6) Crazy Sam is forever running out of mayo because she slathers it on her sandwiches. What is currently on your grocery list?

As has been discussed before, I don’t keep a grocery list. I just wing it.

7) Where are you most likely to find spare change — between the sofa cushions, in your jeans as you toss them into the washer, or under the floor mat of your car?

In the console of my car, actually. I don’t normally carry cash so I don’t have a whole lot of change anywhere, but when I have cash I normally eat at a drive thru and the change ends up in the console of my car. Getting into my pockets while I’m sitting down (strapped down with a seatbelt, no less) just ain’t happening.

8) How did you spend your Friday night — working late, hanging out with friends, or just enjoying a quiet night at home?

Well, seeing as how I’m writing this before Friday night happened, I’m not sure. What I have planned, though, is going to the twins’ basketball game and then going out for dinner with my boys. After that, who knows?

9) Do you use Pinterest?

Um, no. You’ll never find me there unless someone sends me a link to something funny there, then I do a virtual walk of shame right outta that place.

Would you like to join in on the fun? Would you like to be interrogated answer these questions, too? Head on over to the Saturday 9 and link up!
