Freaky Friday

If you could switch places with one person on the board for a day, who would it be and why?

[twotrue]

Fantastic question! Let me think about this....

[ElsaVonM]

2brides. She has a good job and that magical gym/haircuttery/babysitter place.

[ct]

hmmm, that is an interesting question.

I think there are aspects of everyone's lives I admire and would like to experience, but I think for the purposes of the poll I'm going to go with seattlekari.

I think it would be fun to experience new love/dating again, she's always doing rediculously cool things, and I'd love to check out the PNW!

lol, yes!!

[2brides]

LOL. Seriously, L said she won't even consider moving to other areas around here because of the gym. They have them other places. See if there is one near you.

Great question! Joy. She has the coolest job(s), I'm totally curious about her juicing, and her wife is cute ;-)

[Deleted]

I'm going with Joy also, the PNW, awesome jobs, fun vacations, no kids (!!!!!), and cute wife are my reasons.

[twotrue]

I think I would switch with either N2A or TWB because I had a great time meeting their kids in Philly and would love to hang with those kiddos for another day. Andplusso, I could then visit 2brides and my other friends in DC. :-p

[hensmum]

I'm going with CT. It would be like a win-win: I'd switch with her on a day Henry has school - she'd get my house to herself for the morning, then more time when he came home to nap. My one kid would be like a walk in the park for her, and she could relax cook yummy food in my kitchen while he's at school/napping She gets a break, I get to go to work at a desk with a computer (lol) and theb play with her amazingly cute and fun kids! Then when I get home, yummy food awaits

[hensmum]

Oh I should add, for my dinner with FamilyCT, I'd have A take us all to Moe's

[seattlekari]

Hmm...I think different people for different reasons...

CT...her kids are seriously adorable...give me some cute baby cheeks please! And I would love to see CT.

2brides...boys...a day apart in age from E. I'd like to see how they roll and visit with the other DCers on the board.

twotrue has a job that sounds interesting and would totally put me out of my element. But if I swap with her does that mean it comes with her attitude too? Cuz that's how I wanna roll.

CT...whenever you are ready to come to the PNW...just let me know, we would love to have you.

[hlke]

Oh man...this one is so hard! I think I'd switch with ElsaVonM - I'd get to hang out with twins AND find out what it's like to be fit enough to do Crossfit. Runners up are CT and butterfly, so I could find out what it's like to have more than two kiddos.

I've been hoping work would send me that way, but nothing on the horizon yet, boo!

that would be a win-win! Spend a few hours cooking then play with cutie henry? sign me up.

And you would get absolutely no objection from A or the kids on a Moe's dinner!!

have you ever experienced the choas of chuckie cheese on a friday night? that's pretty much what its like

[never2amazing]

Hmmm? I would switch with thiswillbe...I love her Kiddos and hear she has a FANTASTIC wife! LOL!

[never2amazing]

Seriously speaking, I would love to be True. I think I would get a kick out of watching JB's independent wardrobe choices and I know I would welcome the amount of energy True has. Plus, she has FRIENDS ... man, what it would be like to be able to have a glass of wine with somebody other than my spouse. (Okay, sprite...I don't drink.)

[ElsaVonM]

I hate to admit that I am relieved that someone picked me! :-D Thanks hlke!

LOL. I think my house is pretty damn close. Mine is more like WWE. They wrestle and chase each other all.the.damn.time.

I agree with Joy. I admire her willpower to juice (I have NO willpower), her recent travel, her awesome job, and being footloose and fancy free.

Lol! In a very odd way it is a compliment that you think I have an attitude.

I'm late to the game but I'd like to swap with True.

A. She's incredibly independent and I could use a little more of that.
B. She lives in a part of the country I've never even visited.
C. Even though her job sounds incredibly stressful it sounds amazing.
D. JB is adorable and I need to get some practice in with the little ones before we are expecting.

I'm late, but want to play. I love that there are votes for me, and find it interesting that multiple people said/implied it's because I don't have kids -- when that's what I want more than anything in the world. (And, mk/butterfly, I love that you think C is cute!)

There are parts of everyone's lives that I'd love to get a glimpse into. Here are a few:
hensmum - I'd love to experience the stay at home mom role of a cute son
ct - multiple cute kids (I want 2+ but C is firm on 2, we'll see)
2brides - social work job and ability to go to DC

And, if anyone comes to the PNW, we'd love to have you!

I love my kids to pieces and wouldn't trade being a mom for anything, but not being responsible for anyone but myself for a few days sounds divine.

I passed one of these out in Schaumburg (the suburbs) today and was like "oh, we might need to move here when we have kids".

LOL. It really became helpful to us when the kids turned 4y and could go to parents night out and camp during the summer/school breaks. It really has saved us from scrambling for childcare during those times - and thankfully, the kids really like it.
