1. I love Madonna. I always have and I always will. I own (and like) every one of her CD's, including American Life. The first time I saw her live, a giant disco ball descended to the stage from the ceiling, and she emerged. I almost cried.
2. I just cut off 7 inches of my hair last week and I hate it and am in shock. I feel so plain, so boring, so nondescript right now. Plus, it doesn't look good with any of my clothes. I've been wearing a lot of pants because I feel like I look infantile when I wear a dress now.
3. I hate exposed bra straps and cringe when I see them. Is this a style thing or just laziness? I just don't understand the whole not wearing proper undergarments. I have big boobs and can't wear spaghetti straps, so I just don't. I don't say eff it and wear them with a normal bra and let my straps hang out.
4. I wish I was a good singer because karaoke looks fun.
5. I am currently battling a Cheez-Its addiction.
6. I recently bought a Marc Jacobs bag and it's the love of my life and I understand why people go so crazy for designer bags. It's so soft, smells so good, I want to wear it every day, and strangers stop me on the street about it. A girl at a bar asked if she could smell it. We're going to be together a long time, me and Marc.
7. My sister and my best friend are always on my case to "dress sexy". Me being sexy is hilarious. I'm cute and have a decent body, but I will never, ever be the kind of person who wears miniskirts or shows cleavage or wears stilettos. Give me a poufy dress over "body conscious" anyday.
8. I'm really, really liking bands with keyboards lately and bands that sound 80's ish. I've got MGMT and Passion Pit on repeat all the time.
9. I like to run. I'n doing a 5K on Thursday.
10. I feel silly posting on Weddingbee now that my wedding is over.
1. I love pie.
2. My husband and I are doing an anniversary shoot for our one-year anniversary. At first, we felt totally self-indulgent, but now we're super excited about it.
3. I still eat Mac & Cheese from a box. And love it.
4. I need to eat every four hours or I get mean. Like, really mean. My husband avoids it all costs by packing snacks for me anytime we leave the house because he says I turn into a scary monster :)
5. My husband and I are planning a trip to Mexico next winter, and I'm already planning outfits to wear.
6. I hate bars. I avoid them at all costs past 9 p.m.
7. During the entire month of my birthday, I buy myself stuff that isn't technically in the budget because "it's my birthday soon, and I deserve it!" It's a free-for-all month for me :)
8. I want to adopt kids, and have no interest in having a biological child for some reason (although, I would be fine with it if I got knocked up).
9. I'm always planning something, be it a birthday party, or our future housewarming party that won't happen until five years down the line.
10. I will always need to have a dog in my life. They truly add something to our family that I can't live without.
1. I talk way too much about our puppy. (Me and FH's first child haha)
2. I am the QUEEN procrastinator, I can avoid an assignment for days and days just on WB hehe
3. Sometimes I don't get out of my PJ's (I study from home extramurally while FH is at work)
4. I too have an online shopping obsession, Amazon sales anyone?
5. I have not read 'for pleasure' (read: not a coursebook) ALL YEAR - and I'm studying to be an English teacher hahaha
6. I sing when Britney comes on to the radio, but will deny it to the death.
7. I am 26 and still call my Mum almost everyday!
8. I can eat a family block of chocolate in one go. Easy.
9. A friend I used to work with (at highschool) and I had a tally/competition about who made the most boys cry. We'd brag about it at work. (Try and tell me teenage girls aren't EVIL)
10. Need a haircut.
1. I'm a jersey girl and I LOVE the beach. I went to college with girls that totally remind me of Snookie... these people DO exist!
2. I relocated to Maryland a few years ago and really don't understand the whole Chesapeake Bay thing. I don't really like motor boats, I don't like picking crabs. I don't understand these people who have "shore" houses but they are on the bay, not the beach. I think this hurts my FI's feelings, but I just don't get it!
3. I don't like having to "work a room" or talk to large groups of people, but have no problem with giving speeches or having large groups of people watch me dance, walk down the aisle etc.
4. I love Led Zeppelin! Also love Biggie! I like every type of music except for modern country.
5. I love music, but don't really care for concerts.
6. I hate orange flavored candy.
7. Lateness is one of my pet peeves.
8. I get super cranky when I'm hungry.
9. Every time I plan a trip, even a weekend getaway an hour away, I obsessively plan and research on TripAdvsior, for like months.
10. My first car was a white plymouth "duster" with pink trim
1. My friend and I watched The Exorcist when we were 13 and home alone at her place. We screamed so much that her neighbors called the cops to come check on us and make sure we were ok. Yeah, that was embarrassing.
2. I don’t trust people who don’t have any books in their home.
3. I once saved a dog off the side of Interstate 95 in South Carolina. He had clearly just been dumped to fend for himself (obv. starving), and there was no way I was leaving him to get hit by a car.
4. I know the President of Iran is a bad guy, but I secretly find him intensely handsome. I wish I didn’t, but I just can’t help it!
5. My tailbone is fused to my lowest vertebrae. It doesn’t cause me problems by itself, however, it makes all the spaces between my vertebraes off kilter, which causes problems.
6. I love toast like nobody’s business.
7. It annoys me when people say they wish they could have lived in the 40’s “because the clothes were so great”. I want to ask “and how do you think coming off the Great Depression and a pesky WORLD WAR would work out for you?” but I just bite my tongue and nod.
8. I’m extremely particular about socks. If they bunch up around my toes or feel weird, I feel totally claustrophobic and get all freaked out. I hate wearing socks. I don't care how ugly people think Uggs are, I love them because they mean a winter without socks!
9. I still have not seen Avatar, and I don’t plan to.
10. I was, or rather, my legs were, once in a commercial for some sort of snake oil diet pills. They were the skinny “after-the-pill” legs, jumping into a pair of jeans.
Ok, I haven't done one of these yet...I will play...
1. I have a fear of creamy white foods. Like, a strange phobia. I will not eat (or go near) cream cheese, sour cream, cottage cheese, cream of anything soup, plain yogurt, alfredo sauce, whipped cream, ranch dressing....the list goes on! I gag thinking about it.
2. I have three dogs and a cat, and cannot imagine my life with fewer furbabies! All of our dogs have people names...Dillon, Emily, and Lucy. The cat is Princess.
3. I love board games and get really competative with them. Scrabble and Monopoly are my favs at the moment. And if you are looking for a quick, fun, cheap game, pick up Scrabble Slam!
4. Sometimes on weekend mornings (or early afternoons) the hubs and I dance with our dogs to 80s music in the living room. We have a blast!
5. I hate the cold. And I am always cold. Last night we were grilling outside. It was about 85 degrees and I had a sweatshirt on.
6. I love to read! My favorite authors are Lisa Gardner, Harlan Coben, and Jodi Picoult. ALways looking for recommendations, so pm me anytime with a good title or author!
7. I am in school for my master's degree in mental health counseling. I want to work with adolescent females, especially bullies and victims of bullying. I am especially interested in the effects of technology on bullying (facebook, text messaging, etc).
8. I have Bob Saget tickets for a Jaunary show! I am so excited! I've seen Chris Rock and Ralphie May...both were great.
9. I love Wifeswap. If you have never seen it before, you must! So funny!!!

that was pretty tough!
OK, I think I did this last month but I don't remember what I said. Hopefully I won't repeat myself. :-)

3. I dislike cats (sorry) I think they smell and are supercillious creatures.
4. I have a texture issue with foods and will hate anything I eat for the first time because it is a new texture.
5. I am obsessed with Gilmore Girls and I use lines from it in everyday discussions with people even though they don't get the allusion.

8. I love chocolate. No you don't understand. I LoOoOoOve chocolate like I couldn't live without it.
9. I am pretty competitive but I especially am competitive with word games like Scrabble and bananagrams.
10. I cry, bawl and weep at every wedding (I know non-wedding related) or anything particularly sappy. It is pathetic but I just can't help it. ESPECIALLY when families or fathers get weepy. It is just too much for me.
1) I have a freakishly good sense of smell - which is not always a good thing.
2) I really love baseball.

4) My favorite vegetables are peas, radishes, and lettuce.

8) I'm an Aquarius.
9) I was recruited to be on my school's NCAA team my first week as a freshman.
10) I love to sing in the shower.

2. I want to be environmentally friendly but I effing HATE public transportation. Even though everyone should use it, it's always freaky at the bus terminal and I hate how sweaty I get on my walk there.
3. I love planning as well. I'm thinking after this wedding event maybe I should just become an event planner. It's so much fun! To-do lists, binders for specific things, agendas, brain storms....big fetish for me.
4. Im a social worker, I love my career so far. However I would love to be a photographer in order to express my creative side a little bit more (it doesnt get seen a whole lot in my job right now).
5. I have a scary addiction to travelling. When I work midnight shifts, I sometimes plan itineraries for a future trip (budget, hotel rooms, flights, etc)

7, My mom is my best friend.
8. I totally believe that my dog and I understand eachother-- that he's equivalent to a human being sometimes.
9. If you've ever been to Ontario you've heard of Canada's Wonderland. When I was 5 I peed my pants in the middle of the candyland store. My friends mom paper toweled all of the seats in the car on the way home.
10. I can literally work 72 hours straight without sleep. And Ive done it several times, always without caffeine. I have no troubles falling asleep, I just seem to have a freaky ability to stay awake when necessary.

2. I am an old hippie. Hopefully aging gracefully :)
3. I am a garlic nut. I throw it into just about everything that isn't a dessert.

5. I like cats more than I like most people.

9. I am not overly fond of children. I loved my daughter with all my heart but there was a reason why I only had 1 kid.
10. I love tanning in the nude. Luckily, my nearest neighbor is over 1/2 mile away and I live surrounded by woods, so I can and I do!
@danadelphia: I am ridiculously jealous that you're going to Harry Potter world. I tried to get FI to extend our layover in Miami on our way to our honeymoon so we could drive up to Orlando for a few days but he said no. I'm so sad. However, I'm making him take me to the HP exhibit at the science centre as revenge for his meanness ;) Have you played the Lego Harry Potter game for Wii?! So much fun!!!
(1) I hate feet on the dashboard. I don't care if the feet are pretty and have a new pedicure on it, I still hate it and don't want to see it when I'm driving.

OMG BONUS I will be 30 on Thursday and I am FREAKING OUT!
This thread is funny!
I feel like I am in a rut right now and I feel like to moving to CA, although I literally am moving into a different (but nicer) apartment in WI at the moment. By the way, I just discovered the joy of non-chlorine bleach for the bathroom. It smells so much better.
I miss FI because he is working 12 hour days 4 days a week.
I just made an amazing tortellini dinner. And I ate like 3 times as many calories today as I should have. But moving makes me hungry.
I am craving a road trip OUT of the freaking MIDWEST. Sorry, I love some things about WI, but mostly, the vanilla is too strong. I am craving my free spirit friends from far off places.
My sister just got an apartment at Central Park West and yes I am jealous. 84th.
I am trying to decide between graduate school, my own business, maybe both?
I am pinching pennies, but there are a million movies I want to see right now.
1) Let's see - right now I should go and feed my sugar gliders, but hey, they're still asleep (they have a silly sleep schedule for being nocturnal!) so no harm done.
2) I have a FoodNetwork obsession!
3) My boyfriend loves to jump out and scare the sh*t out of me at least once a day. You'd think I would have gotten used to this by now, but no, I still scream every time.
4) I have a calculus test on Thurs that I'm planning on not studying for until the last possible moment lol.
5) I just moved in with the boyfriend this past weekend. Love it so far!
6) My little sister is playing soccer in Germany right now. I am so jealous! Especially with the world cup going on.
7) I <3 unicorns. Way too much for any grown up girl!
8) I've lost 12.4lbs so far on my diet, and I'm SO not trying that hard. I really ought to.
9) I'm super worried about next semester. I'm taking 22 hours and am probably going to be in over my head. :/
10) My favorite tv show of all time is Battlestar Galactica. I cried several times during its duration. I bawled like a baby the last episode. Kind of embarrasing.

4) I don’t have a green thumb. I HATE gardening.
5) My favorite body products come from Savor on Etsy.
6) I hope that awareness becomes more of a priority in schools AND at home in regards to teen pregnancy. I find it really sad to see 15 year olds with a big ole belly.
7) I play Angry Birds on the potty at work
8) I like mayonnaise and ketchup on hashbrowns and fried potatoes. Healthy, no?
9) I never thought I’d be one of those girls getting their nails done every few weeks (waste of money!) but here I am, with nicely polished French tips every 3 weeks.
10) Sometimes I like being an engineer simply for the shock factor. I think it’s hilarious that people just assume I’m a big ole smarty pants and that I’m good in math (when in fact, I almost didn’t pass calculus).
@Miss Seaman: You should be worried about taking 22 hrs. next semester. As a college professor, I have to ask why. I know most students want to get finished ASAP, but your GPA is important!
1. I have 0 creativity. My elementary art teacher told me that I was "artistically retarded". Ever since then, I don't even bother to try. But I guess budget wedding planning requires creativity. Thank goodness for Mom :) -kinda wedding related, Sorry!

10. I've done nothing this summer (thanks to my surgery), so I am dyingggg to go to an amusement park. Rollercoasters make me happy.

3. I love sleep and hate when something gets between me and it. The 9pm performance Friday night and the 5am call time of Homecoming weekend makes me very, very bitter.

1. I'm double-jointed in nearly every joint in my entire body.
2. I am groped by strangers, on average, five times per week because rural Japanese people think it's an okay thing to do.
3. I love curry more than anything in the entire world, and my trip to India last winter was the most delicious vacation EVER.
4. When in the States, I volunteer at a renaissance festival.
5. Richard Mayhew, the actor who played Chewbacca in Star Wars, owns a ceramic bowl that I made. I'm told he eats biscuits from it every morning.

In that twenty-square-foot area, in the past year, I have been attacked by a 300 lb. wild boar, hit by a car while on my bike, had my stuff ripped apart by an army of crows, and had a venomous snake come out of the bushes five feet from me.

9. I am applying to go back to school in fall of 2011 for a degree in Social Work (Mr.TKE doesn't know, yet!)!
10. My mom, my aunt, and I are taking cake decorating classes this fall!
(1) I love kitsch. Not in my house. But if I'm on a roadtrip and pass a sign for the world's tallest coffee cup, or biggest ball of yarn or whatever, I HAVE to stop. This obsession also extends to classic American diners - LOVE them.
(2) I wish I could go back to the 1950s and 1960s and just observe what life was like then (not, @gabrielleelise1981, because of the clothes
), beacuse I find the social and political norms of the time to be completey fascinating.
(3) The Guy and I recently discovered the On Demand Karaoke feature on our tv. Sometimes when we're bored we turn it on and sing along to the most ridiculous songs we can find.
(4) I am OBSESSED with travel research and have been for as long as I can remember. Seriously, when I was a kid, I used to make spreadsheets for my parents so that they could accurately compare all the vacation destinations they were considering for their next trip. Nerd alert!
(5) I do not like my food to touch. Especially if I'm having pancakes and the maple syrup touches the eggs or the bacon...UGH! DISASTER!
(6) I love to look very pulled together even if I don't need to. I am usually the most dressed up person in the office. Dressing up just makes me feel good about myself.
(7) I do not like Sephora. There's too much selection. I mean, how would I choose ONE eyeshadow out of the whole store!? Not possible!
(8) I have been really down lately because I LOVE my job, but it's a contract that ends at the end of August and the new job I have lined up (at the same institution) isn't nearly as great. Boo.
(9) I was on Regie and Kathie Lee when I was 9. My family ran into Regis when we were in Paris (he was there filming a special) and then they aired our conversation with him on the show a couple weeks later!
(10) I love skiing and it makes me sad that The Guy refuses to try it, because I loved family ski vacations when I was growing up and would love to take our future children on the same types of trips.
1. I love to watch old black and white movies on TCM. I just hate that they never have re-runs. I miss something and I have to wait years to see it again.
2. I hate holidays! But at the same time I look forward to them. My family is crazy!
3. I love Autumn. I love maples leaves that turn orange, red and yellow. I love carving pumkins too.
4. I am an artistic soul, yet I haven't picked up a paint brush in years.
5. I love vietnamese food. Love love love it. Rice and fried eggs for breakfast..so good.
6. If I could go anywhere it would be Thailand.
7. In my next life, I want to have Pam Grier's body. LOL.
8. I let people walk all over me sometime.
9. I hate spiders. I hate spiders. I hate spiders. I hate spiders!!!
10. I love the idea of cooking but years of college have made me forget how.
