I actually dont mind it, eventhough it sounds like an old lady, but the NN "Evie" is cute.

I have a pair of Brooks, but only because they worked with my gait and stuff. I was measured/observed at a running store, they brought out 3 pairs for me to try, and those were the ones I bought.

My favorite rides are the ones where you free fall and get the funny feeling in your stomach. I've been to Disney before where I spent the whole day just riding Tower or Terror over and over again.

I think eggs are gross in general, but I don't think it's especially gross or weird to have hard boiled eggs on a salad.

[QUOTE] Everyone:  What's your favorite type of ride (or rides) at an amusement park?  I'm talking the standard, year round in place type, not the traveling ones.
Posted by missy68[/QUOTE]

Roller coasters all the way. The taller and steeper the drop, the better.

I can't ride things that spin--they make me sick

mica178

I rarely take baths.  When I do, I don't read because I've ruined books in the past. 

I like egg salad sandwiches.  H does not and has banned mayonnaise from our refrigerator (he has a weird hatred of it), so I haven't had an egg salad sandwich since we got married.

missy68

I read on my iPod occasionally in the tub. Before I get out, though, I toss it towards the dirty clothes pile so it lands softly and is far away from where I'm going to get out and drip/dry off.
Normally I have a regular book going and a book on the iPod, so I can choose either one.

ETA: as far as eggs go, I like the yolks. I don't like the way the whites feel in my mouth. deviled eggs, I eat the filling; my brother will eat the whites. I do like egg salad; I just grind up the whites pretty fine (and occasionally put potato chips on the sandwich). If I order a chef salad from Cracker Barrel, I ask them to hold the lettuce and sometimes get an extra egg, and only mix in the yellows with the "stuff" part of the salad. Lettuce and I are not friends.

I love the Behemoth at Canada's Wonderland.  It just goes up and down but seriously straight down on this MASSIVE hill.  It is so smooth and fantastically fun.  I love rides, but after going on that one, I was spoiled and started to dislike the standard upside down ones because they bang my head around between the shoulder bars.  The behemoth only has a lap disk to keep you in.

cfas--I think you asked about running shoes initially and are in DC.  I would go to City Sports to have someone look at your feet and stride.  I used to work at a Boston City Sports and am a fan.  I like Brooks shoes a lot.  I have run in the Glycerins and the Infinitis (plus a lightweight model that I think is discontinued and their trail shoe), but I know people with overpronation issues rave about the Adrenaline.  I think Brooks are well-made, good cushioning system, and somewhat eco-friendly. 

I am hoping that my current pair of Infinits will help me get out of this no-running rut I've been in for too long.

Posted by RobotLegs[/QUOTE]

I know how you feel. When I had my son, I DID NOT want a boy. But after I had my daughter, 10 years later, I realized that the Lord knew exactly what He was doing with that plan. Girls can break the BANK!

I also get what you are saying about the relationship part. My mom and I are really close. Whereas my aunt, who has 2 boys, wishes for that type of relationship.

I do not take baths.

I like roller coasters.

I share here most of what I would share IRL, too. I'm fairly open. Not with everything, but with a lot of things.

I love hard boiled egg on salad.

Evelyn is okay. It's popular now, so not old-ladyish, but I wouldn't use it because it's not my favorite.

[QUOTE]I do not really have many secrets and have not spilled much of anything here, but I can understand how I might want some opinions from people here rather than IRL. I have tried to read my kindle in the bathtub but I am a horrible bath person, I get the water everywhere and no matter what my hands are always wet. I usually give a big "hhrumph" and stomp out of the tub. I hate baths. I just bought some Nike Airs, and they are pretty crappy so far. I probably just have to break them in but they hurt my feet! :( <strong>All knotties- Do you like boiled egg on your salads? I love it but some people have never heard of it or think its sick.

I have a thing for simulators. Spiderman at Islands of Adventure is great. I can't do rollercoasters so thats about as close as I can get. I love it.

I also like the name Evelyn.  I had a friend in high school with that name and don't know any old ladies with it, so I don't associate it with old women.

As far as hard-boiled egg on salads, that's pretty much the only topping I have on my salad other than dressing.  Whenever I make salad at home, it is lettuce, egg, and ranch dressing.

I have a nook and I take it in the tub all the time.  I wish they made a water-proof shell so I wouldn't feel so paranoid about getting it wet.

Anna, what do you like most about working/living in D.C.?

Fischy, what's your favorite flavor of margarita?

I seriously love roller coasters. Like whoa.

I LOVE Evie. Love. But I'm not crazy about Evelyn. Sorry Manda

::::TOTAL ATTENTION WHOARING:::: I JUST got a call that I got into the musical theatre program that I applied to! Yay! But, when Fi comes home this weekend, we'll have to make a big pros and cons list and figure out if I actually want to do more school (While he is in med school), or is I want to decline the offer and work/ get real life practical experience. Siiigh.

This would possibly be grounds for divorce.  I <em>love</em> mayo and I don't care if you don't like it, but you will NOT stop me from having it, haha.

Water rides. I used to love all things roller coaster but now I get so scared when I look at them I am too chicken to get on. I do not know what happened.

Adamar, where is your username from?  And I ask only because I'm a Star Wars geek and your name is one letter different from a planet in my favorite book, so I ALWAYS notice it.

I like eggs on my salad, and I like egg salad sandwiches.

Mica, my H hates mayo too. He gets so angry when he asks for "no mayo" on sandwiches and they make it with mayo anyway. I have some Miracle Whip in the fridge anyway. He deals with it, but makes faces when I have to use it for any reason.

mandapanda78

Rollercoaters!! I don't like the ones that go upside down, but all other rollercoaters are the best. Right now my favorite is Everest in Disney. Oh, anna, I hear you on Tower of Terror. I actually hate free-fall rides, but something about ToT is so distinctively awesome.

Meg, I said earlier I like DC because I can walk places. I like working here because I actually have a job I guess. And because I see famous people (if politicians count) a lot.

I have a question for you: do you work in a library? What do you do? I want to get my MLS and my dream job is to work in a university library doing archives and special collections.
