    edited April 2013
    I'm listening to rdio that's why I asked.  I needed some good music selections to move on to, ha ha.  I'm currently listening to Michael Buble, his new album has one of my fav songs on it from Sinatra.
  • 1. If I had $1000 I would go buy some new clothes (I really need some), makeup from Mac, and a new Coach Purse.

    2. Favorite thing planned is probably FI's birthday cake for the wedding. He loves snowmobiling (Skidoo), so I am having them make him a cake look like one.

    3. How much left? Tuxes, assemble invites, and pay people.

    <div>It used to annoy me until I saw a blind guy running down the stairs at work a few weeks ago.  I iminaged him screaming in his head, "YOLOOOOOOOOOOO" as he decided to pick up the pace.  It now makes me smile.</div>

    Not sure exactly.  I think it started with loving the old movies from the 1940s when I was little, probably all the dancing.  My grandparents met during WW2, so hearing my grandma's stories about him was very sweet, she was widowed very early.  I also come from a family of military people, all the uncles have all served and my dad, so the nostalgia added to it.  

    I would really like to go to Normandy.  One of the Uncles was at D-day.  FI visited Anzio when he was Italy before we met, and ironically both of my grandfathers served there so that was interesting to me.

    How was Normandy?

    <div>It's hard to describe. You were there and just knew that something momentous happened there, you felt like you were in history. The beach had a very solemn feel, it rested on your chest. The American cemetery made me cry - so many graves, and every hour they play the national anthem on loud speakers and everyone stops to face the flag and puts their hand on their hearts. It was really moving - all of it. </div><div>
    </div><div>It was kind of cool how you could wander up the hill and go into the bunkers, and disappointing that they were graffitied. There were still displays with disabled canons/guns that you could go to and climb on - they were huge. I loved going into history like that.</div><div>
    </div><div>We got there kind of late (whole other story about how we tried to navigate France using a Rick Steve's hand drawn map... NOT recommended) so we didn't get to go to any of the museums though.</div>
