YAY! This was great - I feel like I learned soo much about you. (Like I said, I normally can' t read these things all the way through, but with you I totally did!)
I can't believe you shave your legs every time you shower - I'm impressed and FAR too lazy to do that. :)
Also? I didn't know you were short as well! (Not as short as me, but stilll.) And we wear the exact same size shoes. :)
I love Johnny Cash, too. Great list!
Great list - I'm glad to have learned more about you!! Mine is coming up so watch for it!!
You were 8 weeks early - your due date must have been right about my birthday (May 20).. And, I LOVE Ellen too!! She is SO funny - when I was out on maternity leave I got SO addicted! Here she comes on at 3pm and Oprah comes on afterwards!!!
Enjoyed this post!!!
I knew most of these things but learned some new things about you...hahaha! Never knew you shaved your legs everyday...LOL! You know I love my trashy reality TV too...LOL! And thanks for setting me up with my hubby-to-be!!
Love ya lots! xoxoxo...Can't wait to see you on Saturday.
Congrats on your 100th post! I am also another of your set ups - so thanks again. Married 3 years & still like each other LOL!
I am happy to sat that I knew a lot of these but also learned some new ones. I can't believe you still shave so much...you must go through so much shaving cream! I shave like once in the winter and only when i have to wear shorts/dress/bathing suit in the summer :)
I also love camping with you & going to Atlantic City...I haven't been there in over 2 years though so this weekend will be really fun and special!
Thanks for being such a great friend and getting me into Sex and the City and helping me with my cooking!
Fun! I know you a lot better now! (:
You were seriously a VH1 intern? How'd you score that? Was it awesome? My cousin was in NYC for 9-11, too, and was really scared. I can imagine it was frightening to be left alone for so long that day. :/
Also, what are your tattoos of?
You just confirmed you're as cute as I thought you were. :)
You can come and stay with me in Cali anytime. ;-)
Holy guacamole! That was a lot of information! My first car was a Saturn too. I currently drive a mini van because I am a lame housewife.
Wow! That was awesome. I know I won't remember that all! ;) When 9-11 happened, I wasn't in NY, but I was teaching in MD and I was only 15 minutes from DC. I was teaching at a school that was mostly military and many parents worked at the Pentagon. It wasn't the loss at NY, but it was tough for us there too.
I also was working there when the DC sniper hit those areas. that was VERY scary b/c I drove past the school he shot a student at- every day on my way to work. He would have been there when I drove by. That freaked me out.
Okay- sorry- that turned into a comment about me!
Thanks so much for letting us learn so much about you!
You go girl! I can't even imagine to attempt this!
yay on 100 posts! loved this one a lot. always fun to find new stuff out about bloggers :)
disneyworld 10 times?! i am so so jealous. and woo for grey's and cooking and giving gifts :)
Yay! I am pretty sure I knew almost all of that. You shave waaaay to much. I shave like once a year. haha I'll never forget 9/11and talking to you on the phone. Can't wait for us girls to be together this weekend.
That was a great list!! I learned a lot about you.
Oh I am far too lazy to shave my legs everytime in the shower, I'm lucky if I get to twice a week. I know yuck! Congratulations on 100 posts!
I am also 5 feet (almost) 3 inches tall.
8 weeks early- and you were tiny- wow!
And you shave your legs everyday? I shave mine every month ;)
It's so fun learning about you. We have a lot in common.
the DVR is a wonderful thing...then not only would you get to watch both Oprah AND Ellen...but you would get to watch both with NO commercials!
PS...so when are you getting married? ;)
Happy 100th post! I love to cook, MUST sleep with lost of covers no matter what time of the year it is and have a tatoo on my back that I want removed too!
I finally had a chance to read through this - I love 100 things memes! I am exactly 14 days older than you. :)
So funny - I followed a link over here and...we have the same birthday (I'm 4 years older though), I was a lifeguard and swim instructor, I'm Catholic (a slack one...), I teach kindergarten, I hate stubble, presents make me uncomfortable but I love giving, I'm 5 foot almost 3 inches tall, I love fruit, I have blue eyes...
totally freaky. ;-)
