Name That Job #6
Welcome to another round of Name That Job! Now, it's been a while since we last played (June 2011!!), so you may be wondering what I am talking about. Name That Job is where I transform into Bobbie Barker and you guess the job or jobs some awesome bloggers have had in their past lives and, in some cases, jobs they have now. Many bloggers have played in the past. It was a fun time! Not sure why I stopped doing it, but I am assuming it had something to do with me trying to learn how to juggle hamsters. Anyway, Name That Job allows us to get to know some fun bloggers better and also allows me to make up stuff them that makes me laugh as I type it out. The answers to this little multiple choice test are at the bottom of this post. If you'd like to get to know these bloggers even better, just click on their blog names. I know they'd love to see your faces!
