Dignity100

1. What is your dream job?

Probably doing something with Animal Rescue or somehow involved in one of the canine cancer research projects things.

2. Do you prefer to cook, bake, or eat?

This is a tough one.  I'm trying to eat healthier, so I like to cook so I know how unhealthy my food is.  If I had my own personal health chef - I would say 'eat'.

Google - It helps me find all the things I ever needed to know

We'll go somewhere nearby before this, but guaranteed is our honeymoon in Alaska.

Nothing that I can think of right now! I'm more of an irrational irritation person.

Dignity100

@500days - can you sneak me with you on your honeymoon - I won't stay with you guys, I just wanna go to Alaska!!!

500days

@dignity100- Perfect! You can take my place on the glacier hike ;-) FI wants to do lots of hiking, boating, and active stuff while we are there. I'm hoping to relax in between. This is what FI wants me to do on our honeymoon lol:

justbeingme93

1. What is your dream job?

Personal Shopper 

2. Do you prefer to cook, bake, or eat?

I prefer to eat. I am getting better at cooking and baking. We had a really crappy oven in my last apartment, so I had a hard time cooking or baking things evenly. Everything turned out horrible. Hopefully, my new apartment's oven will be better. This year will be the true test of my abilities. 

3. What is your favorite website?

It is a tie between theknot and pinterest. I utilize them to plan for my future endeavors. My pinterest albums are full of future vacations, wedding ideas, home decorating ideas, and career plans. They keep my BSC in check. 

4. Where will your next vacation be?

I honestly have no clue. My SO and I have been talking about taking a road trip "down south" after we graduate. I would love to visit Tennessee, Louisiana, and Texas. He hasn't traveled a lot out of state, but I have been blessed with many opportunities to travel throughout the USA and out of the country. We need to ease into traveling together. It's a fine art - traveling with a newbie traveler. 

5. Do you have an irrational fear?

Yes. I have a ton of irrational fears. Do you guys know that little notch that is at the base of your neck and the top of your chest. It is kind of linear with your collar bone. It's fancy name is "suprasternal notch". Yeah, I hate it. I don't like when a piece of jewelry touches it. I don't like when a collar on a shirt touches it. It makes me feel so claustrophobic when something is around it. I don't know why or how I developed this irrational fear, but it is my big "fear". My SO always threatens to touch it when we are goofing around. 

phira

@justbeingme93 When people touch the front of my neck (above that notch), it makes me feel like they're starting to strangle me. Not exactly a fear for me, since it's a physical discomfort that arose from, honestly, absolutely nothing.

Dignity100

@500Days - as long as he doesn't get any crazy ideas about climbing Mt. McKinley. . . I'm sure there will be plenty of time by the fire with hot chocolate (if you have a fireplace and hot chocolate access).

bookishgiraffes

1. What is your dream job?

Editing and proofreading books at a publishing house. Or being an archival librarian.

2. Do you prefer to cook, bake, or eat?

Eating and baking are tied, and cooking is third but not too far behind.

3. What is your favorite website?

Probably Pinterest. i spend far too much time on there. 

4. Where will your next vacation be?

I have no idea. BF and I are trying to plan a long weekend away sometime. 

5. Do you have an irrational fear?

I'm really freaked out by most bugs and I strongly dislike the dark.

Yup, that is the feeling I get when something touches that spot. I feel like I am going to be choked. I'm not afraid of it. I just really, really hate when something touches it. I don't remember feeling this way when I was younger, so I have no idea where this "fear" developed. 

CLoGreenEyes

1. What is your dream job? On my energetic days, I would love to be an FBI special agent. My most-of-the-time dream job is voice acting, I think it would be so fun!

2. Do you prefer to cook, bake, or eat? Gosh, I love all three. Eating has to win, with baking as a close second.

3. What is your favorite website? TK, Pinterest, and allnurses.

4. Where will your next vacation be? It was supposed to be to Maine, but I don't have the $$ right now. The family is talking about doing a huge Disney trip together next year, but hopefully I'll get to do something small before then.

5. Do you have an irrational fear? Not really, I think most of my fears are fairly rational.

lovemyrunner

1. What is your dream job? As soon as I finish my MSN, I'm hoping to split my time between teaching nursing and doing some sort of patient education. 2. Do you prefer to cook, bake, or eat? Geez, that's like asking a mother to choose between children. I love them ALL! 3. What is your favorite website? Probably pinterest. All that pinning makes me feel productive without my actually having to do anything. 4. Where will your next vacation be? Just got back from Chicago, and not planning anything else soon. Well, I guess we do have a weekend in Kansas City planned because I got my BF tix to see his Patriots play the Chiefs in September. Because I am an awesome girlfriend and he should just promote me to fiancee already! 5. Do you have an irrational fear? My grandmother and mother were both widowed early, and sometimes I'm afraid that I will be too. ETA: TK ate my paragraphs... Grr!

luckya23

1. What is your dream job?

I wouldn't want to work!  Otherwise, I have the only job I can tolerate - but if I made at least double the money, that would be nice.

2. Do you prefer to cook, bake, or eat? 

Only eat, I can't do either of the others.... although I'm also a picky eater.

3. What is your favorite website?

I guess FB in general, but lately TK and Weddingbee.  And Wedding Wire when I feel like I should really be planning something.

4. Where will your next vacation be?

Not sure, probably my honeymoon if we can afford one... I also just saw a Groupon for the Poconos, which is one place SO mentioned for the honeymoon (although personally I don't want to waste the time and money there), which I was thinking of getting for his January bday.   Not sure about going in the dead of winter - - but I really want to see this champagne glass hot tub! 

5. Do you have an irrational fear?

I don't trust large structures, like water towers and cell towers.... which I work around all the time.  Also planes and ships.

loves2shop4shoes

1. What is your dream job?

I have a couple of "dream jobs."  My current job is pretty awesome.  I do marketing for a travel company and get to travel frequently...on the company dime. 

I'd also love to work as an Analyst for the CIA.

I'd also love to run a non-profit which helped adolescents coming from troubled families learn confidence.

2. Do you prefer to cook, bake, or eat?

Eat.  Always eat.

3. What is your favorite website?

I spend the most time on The Knot, Facebook, and The Bump.

4. Where will your next vacation be?

DH and I will be going to several islands in Tahiti in mid-October.  We're working on the itinerary right now, but I know for sure we'll see Moorea, Bora Bora, Rangiroa, Huahine, and Tetiaroa.

5. Do you have an irrational fear?

The sound of ice cracking really, really bothers me.  I'm also irrationally worried that my H will die on any given day.

@loves2shop4shoes End of December through the beginning of January, for a week. When we get closer, you should let me know when you're free! We're keeping our schedule pretty open and mostly plan to do one museum and one restaurant a day and play everything else by ear.
