Site Prep with Dan // Volume 9, Currently Edition!

Contains Amazon affiliate links.

Dan and I both love linking up with Betsy and Laura each month for Guys Behind the Blog. Even though I call my series Site Prep with Dan because I’m a rebel.

My husband and I honeymooned in Puerto Rico

Betsy and Laura are mixing things up this month! Instead of answering questions, Dan has answered a few “Currently” style prompts.

Watching SciShow, a Youtube channel that features fun, quick facts and information based on science. Who doesn’t love science?

Reading The Great Bridge by David McCullough. It is a book about the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Listening to Pandora, usually, but possibly NPR. It gets me my news during my commute.

Dreaming of you mean like actually dreaming or metaphorically speaking? Because I don’t usually remember my actual dreams. Metaphorically, I dream of being a race car driver, and an astronaut, at the same time. Who wouldn’t love to race a moon rover against Neil Armstrong? (Fun fact: Neil Armstrong never actually drove a moon rover on the moon; the rover was not sent up until Apollo 15).

Eating meat, mucho mucho meat. And potatoes. Bread and cheese too.

Learning all the time! All kinds of stuff. A lot watching SciShow.

Wishing I don’t really “wish” for things. I’m not much of a “wisher.” I don’t have a well.

Obsessed with cars.

Loving when my wife scratches my back.

Planning for retirement. So exciting!

Can you tell Dan is an engineer?

    Girl, you are ambitious to blog every day! I will definitely try to link-up throughout the course of the month! I will have to look into that book for my husband. I think he might enjoy it!

      Ha, I know! I’m nervous, but excited about it. I hope you’ll join us for at least some of the prompts. And if you want to write any of them out-of-order, each daily link-up will be live for 72 hours to give you extra time. 🙂

      If your husband needs any other book recommendations, my husband has a long list of nerdy books he loves. 😉

    Joe asked me a similar question when I asked him the dreaming one!

      I love when some of the guys have similar answers. Did you see the multiple Powerball responses? Too funny!

    I’m posting Pearson’s answers tomorrow. He answered the dreaming one like literally what he dreams about at night. Also, he said he’s planning his experiments with work. Sigh. Like… what about our next vacation? Or what you’re gonna get me for Valentine’s day? haha Some of Dan’s answers reminded me of these.

    I spent a little time learning about the Brooklyn Bridge recently when we visited New York! I thought it was so interesting how the project switched hands a bunch of times.
