Re: Poooooooooooll

  • 1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee?  Not every day, I go in spurts of wanting it.  I just put a lot of sugar and cream in it. 

    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver?  Yes. 

    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged.  Probably a nice comfy pair of tennis shoes.  

    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to?  Vacation July 1!  But that still seems so far away.
  • 1. I have one cup of coffee every day, more if it's a long or stressful day.  I love french vanilla coffee with about a quarter cup of cream and 3 sugars.

    2. No.  I am not a good driver.

    3. A pair of cute and comfortable kitten heels.  It would suck in the winter, but at least I would be comfortable.  I had a pair of kitten heels that I wore around NYC a few years ago one day for 15 hours.  They were amazing.

    4. I'm going to NY on Sunday with my sister and our friends.  I don't know how much I'm looking forward to it, since H can't go now because of work.  But I think it will still be fun.

    1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee? Absolutely. If I'm not at Starbucks or whatnot, black with two brown sugars.

    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver? Indeed. But it's not a stretch to say that in a city like Toronto ;)

    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged. THIS IS NOT A FAIR QUESTION! NOT FAIR! But I suppose if I ABSOLUTELY HAD TO, it'd be something like these:




    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to? Erm... Calgary in Joo-Lie! Does that count? OH AND! I'm totes going to an ostrich farm for a tour and barbecue on the 2/4. YUM.

    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to?
    Nope. Life sucks right now. I mean, I will be glad if we move and all, but am worried about what we will do for money.

  • 1) Yes, with a little bit of milk and white chocolate or white macadamia creamer.

    2) I think I am.


    3) Oh jeez this is hard...ummm...probably some brown flip flops since they would go with alot. Or my black heels since they go with pretty much all of my work clothes.


    4) We are going to the steeplechase this weekend which is so much fun and something I look forward to every year.

  • 1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee? most definitely. black, one splenda.

    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to? shower, bach party, wedding, take your pick :)

  • 1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee? Not at all. I actually don't like any hot drinks. I need to figure out how to like tea though, because I really need to cut back on my Diet Coke intake and tea seems to be a good alternative.
    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver? I hate driving and it makes me really anxious so I am an overly cautious driver. That plus the fact I drive maybe every six weeks makes me an ok driver. I'm not good, but I don't think I'm bad either.
    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged. Probably some plain flip flops.
    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to? My birthday is Monday, but I'm not that excited about it. I am looking forward to going home to Florida for a wedding on Memorial Day weekend.
  • 1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee?  More tea than coffee, but I drink both, and take both black.
    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver?  Yes.  Only one ticket ever.  And I still maintain that I did come to a full and complete stop.
    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged.  My running shoes.  Specifically Mizuno Alchemys.  I'm all for comfort.
    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to?  FI and I are making an offer on a condo today or tomorrow!
  • 1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee? Nope, I don't even like the smell of coffee.
    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver? Yes, most of the time.
    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged. Slippers. I love comfy slippers and my feet are always cold.
    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to? Going to Baltimore next weekend for my 1-year anniversary! We're going to the Aquarium and Cirque du Soliel. I plan to eat all the crab and other seafood I can get my hands on.

  • 1. Are you a coffee person? Nope. I am a hot chocolate girl
    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver? I do, but I have a VERY heavy foot.
    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged. Flip flops. I hate wearing shoes and if I have on flip flops, it must be hot outside. Yay!
    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to?H and I are going to the spa resort this weekend. We have appointments for the spa and will lay in front of the fireplace watching the #1 NBA team play their first playoff game!!!! And spring break is next week. I am kinda not looking forward to it cause we are having work done on our house, so I won't get to bum around like I really want to.

  • 1. Are you a coffee person?Yes How do you take your coffee? Extra cream, DH jokes I want a little coffee with my cream.
    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver?I think so, I have had my duh moments though. I try to be courteous to others, I just wish most people would be the same way.
    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged. I have yet to find the perfect shoe.
    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to? Getting the remodel done on the front room, and I'm looking forward to gardening.

    I think my feet are forever ruined from:
    <em>a) not wearing shoes 90% of the time I lived in SA
    b) pointe shoes
    c) track & field (110 hurdles... oof)
    d) managing an aldo for years</em>
    that I just don't feel them anymore - literally. They're well and truly fubar'd so yeah. I just own it.

  • 1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee?
    In phases.  I used to drink it, then I went years not drinking it, and lately I've been drinking a cup some mornings, ever since MIL got us a Keurig for Christmas.
    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver?
    Mostly.
    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged.
    Probably flip flops
    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to?
    Yes!  My friends are getting married in Mexico next month and a whole bunch of my college friends will be there, so I'm excited for that.  Also excited that my BFF is just told me yesterday she is moving at the end of the month from San Francisco to Bloomington, IL - which is still 6 hours away from me, but that's a hell of a lot closer!  Already looking forward to visiting with them this summer.
  • 1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee? Oh yes, I am! Generally, non-dairy/non-fat creamer and splenda.  If I'm feeling adventurous I'll put in some sugar free caramel sweetener

    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver? I think so.  No accidents!

    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged.   I have not yet found the perfect shoes, though my wedding shoes were pretty freaking sweet and fun.  Not very realistic for everyday wear though.

    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to? New work computers!  So excited!  As for events... H and I are planning a BBQ party to break in our new deck and that is pretty darn exciting!

    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged.

    1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee? I don't NEED coffee, but I like it. If I don't have to make it, I'll always say yes to a cup a joe. ETA: Oh, and I like my coffee with some kind of fat free cream and 2 splenda.
    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver? I know I'm a good driver. H drives like an old man, so he doesn't agree.
    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged. I'd probably just rock a really comfy pair of flip flops or sandals.
    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to? Well, H has a business trip to Orlando in May - I'm hoping I get to go with him and see my family and go to Disney. Unfortunately, when I asked to use my vacation time the boss said "well, we might be really busy then, I'll have to think about it" - grr.
  • 1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee? Nope, not a coffee drinker. Gimme some hot chocolate and I'll be happy! [: 
    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver? Decent. Not great. Not horrible. I speed a lot... oops. 
    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged.  My yellow TOMS. Comfy as heck and great for multiple occasions!
    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to FI and I are going to food/cake/champagne tasting on Sunday! [:

    Just because I feel like it, and it doesn't look like we've had one lately.

    1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee? yep.  i usually drink double double, or in latte form.  skim or soy milk.  i also like green tea lattes with 1 shot of vanilla.  or with flavoured creamer at home.  no sugar. 

    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver? yes.  i'm really good at parallel parking.  like really good.  i once got applauded by a bunch of guys sitting in a pub (they were all by the window) because i parked so well into a tight spot.  (that's what he said)

    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged.
    hey are rocketdogs.  I bought them in victoria last spring.  they're canvasish.  So comfy.  they make my feet smell though.  so worth it.  they're a little dirty.  i live in a mud pit these days.  we need to lay some sod - ASAP (too bad there's a foot of snow on it today)



    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to? I'M GOING TO MONTREAL WITH MY SISTER NEXT MONTH!!! WOOT WOOT!!!!

  • 1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee?
    Yes, always. Lots of cream, lots of sugar.
    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver?
    Nope. I'm a terrible driver, actually. I hit my own house with my car once.
    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged.
    My black Reef flip flops that I've had 5+ years. They're molded to the shape of my foot. It'll be a sad day in my house when they finally bite the dust.
    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to?
    H and I are going fishing in the Gulf with my parents this summer, around my birthday. It's not til August, but I'm REALLY looking forward to it.

  • Rocketdogs! I take my answer back. I would wear Rocketdog flats forever. They dress up, they dress down, and they're insanely comfortable.
  • 1. Are you a coffee person? How do you take your coffee?  Definitely a coffee person.  Skim milk and a Splenda.  If possible, I'd prefer an espresso drink.

    2. Do you consider yourself a good driver?  Yes. 

    3. If you could only wear one pair of shoes the rest of your life, which ones would you pick? PIP encouraged.  Definitely not fair!  If it is only 1, it would have to be something I can walk a lot and be active in.  My feet are messed up (probably having reconstructive surgery on one soon), so they would have to be Birks or running shoes.

    4. Anything fun coming up for you? Something you're looking forward to?  My birthday and Mr. P's birthday in 1.5 weeks, Greece in 2 months!!!
