Or something like that... Actually, she's been busting some bootie and NOT GETTING ENOUGH SLEEP! Love to you hon for achieving a 60 rep, being yourself and having over 1000 followers wanting to get their daily dose of Snook, and for coming so far with her show [Pants are Optional](https://steemit.com/pantsareoptional/@snook/pants-are-optional-snook-podcast-11-with-guest-sykochica)! So, in simply Snook fashion, she wanted to hold a contest (and get some laughs) to thank everyone for their support. Below are my answers to the five questions for Snook's [Pants are Optional Contest](https://steemit.com/pantsareoptionalcontest/@snook/would-you-like-to-be-a-guest-on-pants-are-optional). (I'll try my best NOT to be subtle. 😉)

1. Would you let me slap you for a hundred dollars and why?

Sure. I've been slapped before and haven't been paid. (I think it's against the law where I live to request money for that...) Fair warning though, depending where (and with what) you slap me with, the price changes. ![IMG_1111.JPG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVf49NPVtxEjpG9TZKJHgHBqWfrD42SDzrE93wteDTz88/IMG_1111.JPG)Other locations and pricing available upon request.

2. What time do you normally go to bed and why?

To be honest, this should be changed to "What time do you normally collapse on the couch?" I can't remember the last time I slept on a bed, minus my inflatable one I use when camping. There isn't a specific time. Some nights, I pass out cuddling my daughter. Others, I come home from my cleaning job and jump onto my couch like it's a life raft from a sinking ship. My newest cat, Cassie, loves to burrow under the covers after nibbling on my chin or nose until she feels satisfied. Most mornings, I wake up surrounded by fur. My black lab is curled up by my knees, Nala (my tortie kitty) is on my stomach, Laya (my polydactyl orange menace kitty) is by my head and Cassie is still under the blanket. ![IMG_1114.JPG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQ2q1cvvN3kR6fLKh8dqpXKsN6ihmwqHqYeJgy1UJGBSC/IMG_1114.JPG)Me, alone on the couch only for this photo.

3. Favorite day of the week and why?

That's a toss up. On Saturdays, there are less obligations to deal with and I have more time, generally, to play with my girls or go to my local farmers market. On Mondays, and lately a few others but always Mondays, I get to spend time with the cats in my CNYSNAP/Petsmart shelter. (Again, MORE fur!!) ![Mr. T..jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmehWUiScyfbMNxvjPeEEQcTSUgfcezTqA9XCzBBDngxPv/Mr.%20T..jpg)This was taken a while back and Mr. T. here has since been adopted. Yay!!

4. What board game do you hate the most and why?

Sorry. That game can kiss my bushy tail. I can't win. My youngest daughter, however, trounces me ALL THE DAMN TIME! And when she giggles at my expression and says, "Sorry!" It makes me want to add extra chores to her list... She simply loves to defeat her mother. But the best part? She offers to let me win the next round with 3 pieces! Isn't that so sweet? ![IMG_1107.JPG](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmYLvDiHSsTdM9nq7N43Xe7RWW7Q5urHuZjVqoJ6AvbR81/IMG_1107.JPG)Who's sorry now, you stupid game?

5. If you had the world's attention for 30 seconds, what would you say?

Life is short...so lick everything! LOL! Seriously, in 100 years, we'll all be dead. When you can, share a meal with someone who you love to talk with. Laugh at yourself when you do something wrong, weird or crazy. If a person tells you that you hurt or upset them, believe them. Try not to think of how you didn't (you're not them so you can't make that call). Listen to why and try to understand their point of view. We all will make mistakes and the beauty of truly caring is being able to acknowledge that you see things differently, that you each respect each other, and that in the end, neither of you wanted the other one to hurt.
