Favorite Movie(s): Anchorman, This is 40, Knocked Up, Napoleon Dynamite, The Hangover

Quote(s) you often say: "Don't act like you're not impressed" "60% of the time, it works everytime" - Anchorman "I hope I get my period soon because I am in a bad mood" - 40yo Virgin There are so many more but I can't think of them right now, of course!!!

Hobbies: Going to basketball games - but the Suns are embarrassing to watch right now, so I save my money and watch at home, Watching TV,... I really need to get a real hobby. I am pretty lazy.

Your job - Love it? or Can't wait to leave it?: Ugh I hate mine and am ready to leave as soon as I win the powerball or find a new one

It's boring and the company is pretty disorganized.

Addictions: I am addicted to the ID channel on TV, Google, Electronic Cigarette (quitting after the wedding, but at least it is better than a real cigarette!)

Best date/way to spend a night out with FI? I like having dinner and drinks at a Sports Bar! I like the atmosphere better than a nice restaraunt or a club. He would say sitting on the couch together watching a funny movie.

Anything interesting or unique about you?: Not so much but, I have been a vegetarian since I was 14. My family and I rescue retired Greyhounds (they are soooo sweet) - We have had 5 so far. My favorite band when I was 14 was Green Day, my sister is 14 now and her favorite band is Green Day, weird but cool! I love Britney Spears, craziness and all.

That's all I have... maybe this will break up the boring Monday for us all!

Quote(s) you often say: I don't really quote at all! If anything- random quotes I hear off of Psych

Hobbies: Uh... cleaning my house and taking care of the animals, work, spending time with my friends and family? Yah, I have no hobbies. I need one too.

Best date/way to spend a night out with FI? There is a sushi place near us that we like to go to. I like doing that, and then going bowling or mini golf after...

Anything interesting or unique about you?: My last name is a number, and a cool one. So I'm sad to give that up - but I'm keeping it as a middle! My family has been through a lot of crap but we make it through due to humor! I have read the Harry Potter and Anne of Green Gables series at least ten times each.. they make me happy and probably will when I'm 50!

Anything interesting or unique about you?: My first name is so unique that I'm literally the only one in the USA with it, so I'm not concerned about changing my last name since my first name will remain the same ahhahah. I've got more than handful of tattoos but most people don't know since i keep them covered, you won't notice them unless I'm in a bathing suit.

Happy Monday ladies!

Favorite Movie(s): Hitch, Love Actually, Singing in the Rain, White Christmas

Quote(s) you often say: "I know, right?!" - It annoys me that I say this, I picked this up from someone else and drives me nuts but it comes out of my mouth all the time. lol

Anything interesting or unique about you?: I'm 6' tall and my fiance is 2.5" shorter than I am. I was really not crazy about the mismatched height at first, in fact I almost wouldn't date him over it, but he is such a great person that I'm glad I put that aside finally. I just became and aunt for the first time yesterday!!!

Favorite Movie(s): Lord of the Rings, Waltz with Bashir. Those are what come to mind right away though there must be others.

Quote(s) you often say: I don't really quote things much.

Hobbies: Running and yoga mainly. I used to draw and paint a lot but I haven't had the time to keep up with it the last couple of years with work. I'd love to get back into art.

Your job - Love it? or Can't wait to leave it?: Love it! I'm almost finished here though, being a research student, so will have to find a new "real" academic (or other) job soon. I've got my fingers crossed to find something in my field.

Addictions: At the moment, The Knot, haha.

Best date/way to spend a night out with FI? It's always fun to grab a couple drinks at the pub down the road from us. We don't really go out much at the moment, so that's about it.

Anything interesting or unique about you?: Ok, well if languages count, I know some French and Icelandic, along with Old Norse, Old and Middle English. I have a master's in medieval literature and I will have my PhD by this summer (right now I'm just waiting for my thesis to be examined).

Favorite Movie(s): Princess Bride, Labyrinth, Muppets Take Manhattan, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars (4, 5, and 6...not the new ones)

Quote(s) you often say: Oh man. FI and I quote stuff ALL the time. I'd have to go with "I do not think that word means what you think it means" - Princess Bride / "Both favorite." - Brian Reagan / "No...No...No..." - Family Guy (link so it makes sense)

Hobbies: Knitting, watching the Tar Heels, playing Wii, cooking

Your job - Love it? or Can't wait to leave it?: Love it. It's the first job I've ever had where I feel that "this could be a career" vibe

Addictions: Food television, cupcakes, champagne, my cat, mozzarella sticks

Best date/way to spend a night out with FI? Dinner at a nice restaurant followed by drinking some wine or beer on the couch while either episoding (what we call watching episodes of old shows on Netflix) or playing Wii

Anything interesting or unique about you?: Hmm...I did a semester in Spain so I speak Spanish, and I have a masters in horror literature from Trinity College Dublin. I have 1 tattoo that most people can't see and is ridiculously nerdy and I'm planning a second for the summer. Also, I have a severe intolerance to cucumbers. They taste horrible and make me so severely nauseous if I eat them that I can't continue eating for several hours.

phoenix870509 · February 2013

Favorite Movie(s): I have way too many. Any of the Marvel movies, especially Avengers, the first X-Men and Captain America, The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, Dolphin Tale, America's Sweethearts, Scooby-Doo, Star Wars (4 5 and 6, especially 6)

Hobbies: Cross stitch, crochet, play video games, play with my puppy, play flute and piano, comics.

Your job - Love it? or Can't wait to leave it?: I have two jobs, a full time and part time. I put in my two weeks for the part time job though. I worked at Batteries Plus for over a year and was only working 7 hours one day a week. Wasn't worth it. My second job I love. I'm a supervisor/team lead at a call center where we verify providers' information.

Addictions: Dolphins! I love dolphins! Also chocolate and Marvel comics.

Best date/way to spend a night out with FI: Staying at home watching a movie or playing video games.

Anything interesting or unique about you? I taught myself how to cross stitch, crochet, play flute and piano. As an only child I had way too much time on my hands. But my passion is cross stitching. I'm currently cross stitching the place cards for the wedding. And one of my cross stitches, one of four dolphins, took second place at the Florida State Fair earlier this month!
