What holiday are you most looking forward to celebrating? Why?
Tie between 4th of July and Christmas. 4th of July because I love being patriotic and its the day before my Bday. Christmas because I love the Cheery Spirit people get. They are finally has happy as I am all yr round LoL. I also love getting to see my Familly.

What's your favorite cool-weather drink? Hands down - Hot Coco. pure heaven. I use to love Chi Tea but now that Caffine gives me Migraines its out.

Favorite thing about work? Least? Favorite: The hrs - its PT and flexible.
Least Fav.: Its a brand new position and what they want is really basic and not challenging for me.

Best thing you did over the long weekend? Held my Nephew Snuggled w/ FI

What holiday are you most looking forward to celebrating? Why?
Christmas and FI and my -1 Anniversary. I love getting to see all my and FI's families, and all the anticipation and good moods that come with Christmas. And Christmas music, making cookies, and watching Christmas Vacation and A Christmas Story!
FI and I are also celebrating our -1 Anniversary in October- one year before we are married! Not sure what we're going to do yet, we talked about a haunted St. Paul Tour or Summit Brewery Tour, but I'm just excited to be under one year away!

What's your favorite cool-weather drink?
Hot apple cider overall, but right now I am so stoked to see the Pumpkin Spice Latte is back that it might win for the moment.

Favorite thing about work? Least?
Favorite: Laid-back atmosphere. Hands down.
Least: I feel like I'm not seen as competent sometimes. I'm working part time as a law clerk and sometimes I think the attorneys don't think I can do things right or that I don't really know the right answer because I'm just a law student.

Best thing you did over the long weekend?
Spontaneous date night! I finished my homework much earlier than expected yesterday, so FI and I decided to see Eclipse in the cheap theater. It was a great way to end the long weekend!

What holiday are you most looking forward to celebrating? Why? New Year's Eve, because it's my birthday.  I'm not looking forward to the getting older part, though.  I'm old enough.  I guess the minor holidays are really my favorite because I get them off, since I work for the government, and I don't have to see anyone's family.  I'd rather be alone.

What's your favorite cool-weather drink?  Good Scotch and soda.  I'm getting a really rare bottle of scotch as a gift in the next couple weeks, so I look forward to trying it out.

Favorite thing about work? Least?  Favorite: every single holiday off, union representation, excellent wages/benefits, and being largely left alone by supervisors.  Least:  office politics, incompetence being rewarded, not a lot of incentive to advance.

Best thing you did over the long weekend?  Played with Wesley, my dog, and spent some time out and about with FI.  It was pretty fun having our e-pics taken, although he won't get as goofy as I will.

What holiday are you most looking forward to celebrating? Why? Halloween and Christmas. Halloween, because my boss throws a killer party every year...and Christmas because I love having my family over and hosting Christmas

What's your favorite cool-weather drink? Chai Tea or Hot Apple Cider -- yum!

Favorite thing about work? Least? Love my boss......not so much love my co-workers.

Best thing you did over the long weekend?  FI road tripped home from Nashville, TN and broke down in St. Louis. This would of been bad, but it turned out ok and it made for some laughs!  Plus, we got to check out St. Louis while we waited for our car to get fixed.

Best thing you did over the long weekend? FI and I went for a day trip, we took the bikes and drove to a town about half hour away, and then did a 15 mile bike ride.  Then we went out for a nice dinner after and treated ourselves to a glass of wine (we've been on a diet lately for the wedding so we haven't had much wine.  Oh how I miss thee)
