    1. Drafting and Art - I liked being creative, and I was good at it ;) Yet I wanted to nothing to do with having it as a career and instead some of my artwork hangs on my office walls.

    2. Undecided. Our wedding is a week later, so perhaps nothing as that is costing us a lot as is. However, I was thinking earlier today of splurging for an ammolite pendant for him as a combo Christmas gift/wedding gift (he originally wanted an ammolite wedding band however it is too soft of a stone and would be easily damaged).

    3. Three mandarin oranges, and two pieces of leftover homemade pizza (mmm).

    4. A big sack of money to pay off my student loans. Not likely to happen :)

    5. Sigh, I will be working part of it to catch up. FI is doing a firearms course, however I am sure we will fit in dinner, movie or something of the sort.

    6. Saturday night - the office Christmas party. Live band and all. FI and I tore up the dance floor (that does not mean we did looked good doing it, but it was fun!). Great times! FI and I dance a lot though - we particularly enjoy cranking up the tunes and dancing in the car to the horror of onlookers.

  • 1. Favorite HS class and why? AP English. My teacher gave me an A on a creative writing paper once, right after telling the class he never gave A's on creative writing.

    2. What are you getting FI/DH for Christmas? No clue. Something CHEAP!

    3. What did you have for lunch? Spagettios and an apple pocket. My lunch says I'm 7 years old.

    4. What do you want from Santa? I've said it since March. If I don't get a Kindle this year I'm going to stop believing.

    5. Weekend plans? I don't care if it is Monday, vallyhooha! All the more reason to plan the weekend! We are taking the girls to an indoor waterpark resort for their big Christmas kickoff weekend.


    6. When's the last time you danced (around a poll or not)? Friday night my best friend and I went to a symphony event featuring the music of Sinatra. As we walked back to the parking deck, we were feeling too mature, so we danced to Bel Biv DeVo (sp?) as we walked by a bar and heard it blaring. I actually broke the heel of my boot and had to tip toe back to my car, barely able to stand we were laughing so hard.
  • 1. Favorite HS class and why?  Art. Our teacher rarely made us do any work so it was just social hour or nap hour. I always had first period spare and 2nd period art, and 3rd period lunch, so it was the perfect day.
    2. What are you getting FI/DH for Christmas? magic mouse, $125 gift card towards the tv he wants for his office, and a febreez flameless luminaire (he wanted it!)
    3. What did you have for lunch?  minestrone soup, yogurt, an apple, a clementine, 4 poppyseed crackers and a slice of marble cheese!
    4. What do you want from Santa? money
    5. Weekend plans? finish christmas shopping, start christmas baking, start wrapping gifts.
    6. When's the last time you danced (around a poll or not)?i HATE dacing. We danced at our wedding a year and a half ago and that was the last time.
  • I had a GPS on my Xmas list, but DH gave me one this weekend he got for free. It's called a "spotter", and it's branded by NASCAR and Dale Jr. His voice is actually the one telling you when to turn, and all the NASCAR tracks and his honky-tonk bar are pre-loaded. I asked if it only gives left turn directions. Undecided

    It will probably be pretty cool once I dip a q-tip in acetone and remove the autographs and change the voice. The screen is huge, mayun!

  • 1. Favorite HS class and why? Spanish and Chemistry - I was really interested in learning a new language and picked up on it pretty easily since I had learned a lot of it when I was younger. Chemistry because we did a lot of cool projects and I just found it really interesting.

    2. What are you getting FI/DH for Christmas? Lots of stuff, but the highlight is the Wii.

    3. What did you have for lunch? Haven't had lunch yet. But I think I'll have some salad, and maybe a mini pizza too.

    4. What do you want from Santa? xm radio would be nice

    5. Weekend plans? Not sure yet. Nothing too exciting.

    6. When's the last time you danced (around a poll or not)? I danced with H in our living room yesterday or Saturday, just goofing off. 
  • Bec, that's hilarious. Oh, and Mr. Heels' best friend took his kids to that park and they had a freaking awesome time.  I want kids just so I can go (can I borrow one of yours?).

    So everone has something intelectual to say about their fave HS class except cew and me.  Cew's smoking in the woods and I'm making out with the guy I tutor.  I think we would have been best buds in HS.
  • You don't need kids, Heels! There were plenty of adults there for the waterpark the last time we went.

    If you insist on taking kids, though, I'll loan you the younger one. She just called about 20 minutes ago and asked for possible reasons her butt could be stopped up, because she's had to poopie all day and can't. I just this second got off the phone with her a second time, where she was celebrating pooping at last. So yeah, you can have her!
  • Oh noes.  I'm not equipped to deal with poopie issues!
  • 1. Favorite HS class and why?  English - it was easy.
    2. What are you getting FI/DH for Christmas?  A wedding and a honeymoon - lol.  We're cheap.
    3. What did you have for lunch?   Subway.
    4. What do you want from Santa?   The DVD box-set of Dawson's Creek.
    5. Weekend plans?   Oh, ya know, gettin' married and such.
    6. When's the last time you danced (around a poll or not)?  Ooh, it's been awhile...probably my bachlorette beginning of October.
  • Bec - was it you that was telling me that you can't handle grossness even if it's your own kids? I love that. Glad to hear your little one was finally able to get it out.

    Totally random, but I love it when a dog poops and then runs around all crazy afterwards. I imagine it's because they feel so great about it. Sometimes, I want to do that too.
  • 1. Favorite HS class and why?   English, I'm a nerd and I loooove to read and then talk about what I read

    2. What are you getting FI/DH for Christmas?  Hmmm...lift tickets maybe?  And maybe some long sleeve shirts because he will not shop for himself, but he will complain about not having any long sleeve shirts to wear.

    3. What did you have for lunch?  Soup and it was yucky because I accidentally bought the healthy. low-sodium kind.  Bad news.

    4. What do you want from Santa?  a pretty right hand ring or some simple silver hoop earrings.  I never buy them for myself, but I do complain about not having them :)

    5. Weekend plans?  bowling and karaoke Friday night, company Christmas party and then FI and I are going to The Melting Pot afterwards with some friends Saturday night.  I think Sunday will involve a lot of sleeping.

    6. When's the last time you danced (around a poll or not)?  In the car yesterday on the way home from NC to some song on the XM 50's station.

  • Yes, Cew, that was me. It's my one parenting kryptonite. I will clean it up, and I will suffer through it, but I will also puke. I can't help it. I was SO happy when my girls outgrew shitting their pants. That was a tough time. I'd rather explain periods again instead of ever changing a poopie diaper. I think I'm broken.
