    1) Last time you had a really good laugh?
    Laughing at FI's friend talking about purchasing and wearing skinny jeans w/o realizing they were skinny jeans. The story had me (and many others) in tears.

    2) What is a quirky habit you have?
    I am super picky about the way my jeans are folded and put away.

    3) Happiest memory within the last year?
    Getting engaged!

    4) Most treasured memory?
    I don't know about most treasured (having a hard time thinking of that right now) but I love that my friends threw me a suprise going away party when I was moving back to MN.

    5) Anything you'd like to say to someone but can't/won't for whatever reason?
    I want to tell my friend to get over it. In reference to a break up in an on again off again relationship - where the on and off happen weekly.

    Can't say it because it just would not go over well.

    6) What would you rather be doing right now?
    Laying on the beach in the riviera maya drinking rum punch!

    1) Last time you had a really good laugh?
    I'm watching the Olympics Men's ice skating (of which their choice of clothing was much to the disdain of FI) and all of a sudden he is pirouetting all across the kitchen. I <3 him.

    2) What is a quirky habit you have?
    I screen my phone calls like crazy.

    3) Happiest memory within the last year?
    I feel like I should say our proposal day, but it was so much of a blur. Instead I'm going to say our trip to Nantucket. We went with good couple friend for the weekend because the Boston Pops were playing on the beach with Michael Cavanaugh. It was all Billy Joel themed and FI and I were dancing and singing like maniacs while the sun was setting over the ocean. This pic is from that night : )

    4) Most treasured memory?
    My Granna coming into my room and rubbing my back whenever I was visiting her. And everytime my mom and I laugh so hard we make each other cry.

    5) Anything you'd like to say to someone but can't/won't for whatever reason?
    Too many things, mostly "You're an adult. Stop using the credit card your parents pay for."

    6) What would you rather be doing right now?
    In bed, reading a book, cup of tea with a puppy.

    So I got distracted by work.  This is unacceptable! lol Anywho....

    1) Last time you had a really good laugh?
     
    Last night - we were at Mom and Dad's cooking lobster and one fell on the floor.  The dogs decided to investigate and it turned into them barking at it and running around it smelling it bu being terrified to get too close.  It was hilarious!

    2) What is a quirky habit you have?
    I have this thing where I have to press the lock button on my car keys numerous times before I'm satisfied that it's actually locked.  I dunno why but my minimum is 5 times...?

    3) Happiest memory within the last year?
    One of my closest friends got married in Sept. and it was amazing!! It was really special b/c she asked for my help with a lot of stuff and we spent weeks getting DIY stuff together and it really brought us closer together.  I don't know if I could pick just one time but that whole experience with her was just amazing! We're so much closer b/c of this and just seeing her and her hubby on the day of...she was sooo beautiful and happy and it was magical! Ah it makes me tear up!! lol

    4) Most treasured memory?
    The day I got to see my grandmother for the last time.  She was passing away and I worked down the street from the hospital so I went up on my lunch.  She wasn't concious but I got to spend an hour with her by myself just talking and spending time.  I gave her a kiss and I swear, even tho she wasn't concious, she smiled.  I walked back to work (8 mins away) and mom called me the minute I walked in the door to tell me she was gone.  It means so much to me that I got to spend her last few minutes with her.

    5) Anything you'd like to say to someone but can't/won't for whatever reason?
    I'd like to tell my bff that her and her FI should wait to get married.  They've only been together for 9 months and it's her first relationship so I really just don't want her to get burned.  I believe that they love eachother, I just want to make sure that they have a solid foundation and they've had the time to talk it over..and yeah.  But I can't say that cause she's my bff and yea....so I just encourage her to have the important convos and yeah...

    6) What would you rather be doing right now?
    Forbidden vacation or home with BF

    Me Too!!! At least now I have 10 awesome questions to make my afternoon go by faster!

    1) Last time you had a really good laugh?
    I made a poem about my mom and pooping that goes with Green Egg's and Ham. My dad and I thought it was hilarious…. Mom- not so much.

    2) What is a quirky habit you have?
    Whenever someone walks by my desk, I noticed I always take a drink of water.. Why, I don’t know.

    3) Happiest memory within the last year?
    A forbidden road trip with BF to see his grandparents in KY. We stopped in Cincinnati for a night and it go to King’s Island and we really had a nice trip.

    4) Most treasured memory?
    I can’t think of anything off hand and time I get to spend with the girls in my family.

    5) Anything you'd like to say to someone but can't/won't for whatever reason?
    Among other things... “we all know you got knocked up and that’s why you moved your wedding up a year so don’t be surprised if I’m not surprised when they induce your labor “two months” early since the baby is “so big”.  So many “quotations” lol
    6) What would you rather be doing right now?

    Taking a nap J or I wish BF were in town so we could both take a nap.

    Thanks Paige, I really needed this today! :0

    1) Last time you had a really good laugh?
    Last weekend when bf was here for a visit... He always makes me laugh. :)

    2) What is a quirky habit you have?
    I don't have a dishwasher, so I do them all by hand. When I was a child, my Oma taught me how to wash them in the following sequence (with water so hot it almost burned): cutlery, kitchen utensils, knives, glasses, mugs, plates and bowls, mxing bowls, pots and pans. Then, I wash any plastic tupperware with (a small amount) of fresh hot water and lots of soap. And then I have to scrub my cutting board and clean all the countertops. I can barely watch bf wash dishes because he puts everything all together in the sink!

    3) Happiest memory within the last year?
    I wish I had one that stands out, but I haven't been very happy lately. I guess it would be holding my new nephew for the first time.

    4) Most treasured memory?
    Being in my Oma and Opa's garden and spending time with them. When my Opa was still around (he died last spring) he would always kiss my cheek and squeeze me and say "oh, schrutabout!" (that's what it sounded like, it's Dutch and I don't for sure... but he was always so full of love).

    5) Anything you'd like to say to someone but can't/won't for whatever reason?

    Dear Practicum Mentor Teacher,
    Your students do not feel safe in you class. They are unhappy, uncomfortable, and bored. You are old-school with everything and my heart breaks for some of the students as a result of your methods, esp. re: management techniques. You are a bully, and I don't like you! Please keep your rude comments to yourself. I hope you let me try to build up some trust and community with the class, and do not sabotage my efforts.

    Also, you are a douche!

    Sincerely,
    Frustrated Student Teacher

    6) What would you rather be doing right now?

    Anything! Especially with my bf... going for a hike, taking a trip... Actually being able to plan a wedding instead of just discussing ideas and compiling lists together would be wonderful!

    1) Last time you had a really good laugh?
    Last night. I was at a club meeting with my friends, and we always get really silly together. It was a good time.

    2) What is a quirky habit you have?
    I have a terrible sense of time (according to the psych who diagnosed me, it's a manifestation of my dyslexia), so I compulsively set clocks fast.

    3) Happiest memory within the last year?
    BF meeting me at the train station at Christmas. I hadn't seen him since September. It was a big deal.

    4) Most treasured memory?
    My bosses from my job telling me they have no idea what they're going to do without me when I graduate.

    5) Anything you'd like to say to someone but can't/won't for whatever reason?
    I'd like to tell my roommates to grow up and get lives. But I live with them, and I like them. But lately they're driving me crazy.

    6) What would you rather be doing right now?
    Well, for starters, it'll need to warm up to about 60 degrees, but I'd rather be outside, probably reading. But alas, it is 25, snowing, and with 40mph wind gusts.

    Katanne - When BF and I were watching pairs figure skating, BF was determined he could do that. He thought if we practised enough, we could go to the Olympics as a pairs couple. He decided to try a couple of lifts, with me, in the middle of the living room. It was fun and all, but honestly, he was really excited about figure skating...it surprised me!

    1) Last time you had a really good laugh?
    This afternoon, my co-worker and I (whom I share an office with) nearly died. It was honestly the dumbest thing. I'm working on this contest for the office, and no one is participating (SHOCKER!). Basically, I said we could just pretend it never happened, and she dissolved into giggles. I still don't really know why it was so funny, but then I was laughing too. That happens at least once a week, for which I'm glad.

    2) What is a quirky habit you have?
    Ooh I have lots! Just ask BF...I drive him half crazy a lot of days. I guess one off the top of my head would have to do with the kitchen towels. The fuzzy one is for hands, and the not-fuzzy one is for dishes. You don't use the opposite towel for the opposite task. My mother ingrained this one in me.

    3) Happiest memory within the last year?
    Standing in the middle of a few thousand people at a Blink 182 concert with BF after they left the stage, while the crowd got so loud waiting for them to come back on you could feel the sound (in an outdoor stadium). It was surreal...and then Travis Barker came back on stage and did a drum solo while suspended from the roof. I have never felt so...alive...as that night. We had soo much fun on that trip, and stayed in a gorgeous hotel with an amazing view (even though the weather sucked, and we ate McDonalds for breakfast).

    4) Most treasured memory?
    Any of the many summers I spent up North. I love it up there; it's beautiful, and my appreciation for it is ever evolving.  

    5) Anything you'd like to say to someone but can't/won't for whatever reason?
    Yep! But, that's not public knowledge.

    6) What would you rather be doing right now?
    Not sitting freezing my ass off in the last 25 minutes of my work day! I just want to go home and curl up for the night.
    He pretty much had me at "hello".
    -- PS I agree with whatever Jeana said --

    1) Last time you had a really good laugh?
    Today, when a friend told me a guy facebooked her to confirm dinner plans for tomorrow night and he asked her if it was going to be classified as a date. Her answer would determine which pair of pants he would wear.

    2) What is a quirky habit you have?
    constantly clean from underneather my fingernails, even if there is nothing there.

    3) Happiest memory within the last year?
    My engagment!!!!

    4) Most treasured memory?
    Playing card games with my grandma who passed away when I was 10. I would do anything for her to be at my wedding 11 almost 12 years later.

    5) Anything you'd like to say to someone but can't/won't for whatever reason?
    Dear Profs,
    Pleas understand that midterms week doesn't mean everyone should schedule their midterms on the same day. It simply means you can take this exam at any point in the wee preceding midterms week during midterms week and the weer following. The stress that you all have put on me this past week almost sent me to the hospital. If I fail a stress test I'll be sending you all my bill.

    6) What would you rather be doing right now?
    Cuddling watching a movie with FI. Being LD SUCKS!
  • edited December 2011
    1) Last time you had a really good laugh?
    God forgive me, but last night. FI let one loose in bed. Not a big deal, until the fumes worked their way through the bedding. I actually sat bolt upright in bed and yelled out (in my croaky bronchitus voice) "Holy sh*t, what did you eat?!?!?" So gross, but we were in hysterics for about 10 minutes. Actually the first time I've really laughed in months.

    2) What is a quirky habit you have?
    I'm totally CDO (OCD for those non-alphabetical people, right Acro?). I alphabetize and group shite like no one's business. We literally own over 300 DVDs and they are all alphabetized down to the letter.

    3) Happiest memory within the last year?
    Getting engaged. My first trip to Colorado/driving the the Rocky Mountains with FI, FFIL, and FI's Aunt.

    4) Most treasured memory?
    God, I have a few...

    - Playing the piano at the farmhouse with my paternal grandmother (only memory I have of her)
    - Playing the slot machines with my maternal grandmother on her only trip to SoFLa before she passed
    - Holding each of my "nieces" for the first time
    - FI's proposal
    - First time I heard FI tell me he wanted to marry me

    5) Anything you'd like to say to someone but can't/won't for whatever reason?
    If I wouldn't get fired from multiple jobs for doing so, I'd love to tell two people what complete and utter morons/pompous arseholes they are. I'm sorry, but the world does not revolve around you two. Get off your arses, do what you're supposed to do, and quit holding up the train for everyone else. And if you have a problem with me, grow some balls and say it to my face, instead of bitznitching about me behind my back to my friends and coworkers (including two of my bosses).

    6) What would you rather be doing right now?
    Sleeping. I feel like crap. Bronchitus blows. And I still have two batches of margarita cupcakes to make for tomorrow ::pouty face::

    1) Last time you had a really good laugh?
    Couple nights ago... BF was over, him, my son and I were rolling around and tickling each other and drying laughing.  My sons "tickles" are more like he's petting you and you have to fake laugh for him but that and his little giggles are so cute that you end up crackin up for real! :)

    2) What is a quirky habit you have?
    My night time routine is odd to most.  Before getting into bed I take my multivitamin then put on chapstick and my aromatherapy hand lotion.  I also sleep with earplugs (well usually just one and my other ear to the pillow so I can hear my son fi he needs me).  And Ihave beach towels over my windows because the blinds do not block all of the light!  I'm not insane I just have an insanely difficult time sleeping unless I have these things done... I sleep like crap when I travel unless I take something to help me sleep (Benadryl or Ambien).

    3) Happiest memory within the last year?
    My BF and I having a serious conversation about being in it for the long haul together no matter what and discussing a timeline for my son and I moving in with him at his house and getting married (not just the idea of marriage and saying I would like to marry you one day).

    4) Most treasured memory?
    Disney World vacation with my mom and sister (both of whom have since passed away from cancer).  The vacation was through the Make-a-WIsh foundation and it was so special!

    5) Anything you'd like to say to someone but can't/won't for whatever reason?
    Yeah, I would tell a couple of key people that they need to get over themselves and understand that forgiving people isn't just about forgiving them for their actions but also about allowing yourself to stop stressing over it and holding on to anger.  That for every bit of anger that you hold onto is just taking up space and keeping love out of your life.

    6) What would you rather be doing right now?
    I want to be on the beach with my son... preferably with the BF too!  Instead I'm at work as is BF and its my son's weekend with my ex so I will not see him for 3 whole days! :(
