xcalygrl-Maus is a Weimaraner, she's lives to go on hikes and dog parks.

cschiano-Missed having you around these parts you need to come back more often. My starbucks order is a nonfat sugar free chai latte or an unsweetened shaken iced passion fruit tea lemonade.

In 2013 I look forward to getting a new puppy that looks like this when he's 1 years old,

and perhaps trying our hand at making a Viet/Danish baby!

My favorite piece of clothing in my closet now are my new jeans because they are the smallest size jeans I've owned in years!

In 2013 I'm looking forward to um, uh, our annual trip to Mexico? OH and our new dog Quigley!!! I would really really like to say an engagement ring, but that may sound a little BSC.

My Starbucks order is a grande (or whatever the biggest size is) sugar free/fat free vanilla latte wiht an extra shot of espresso.

Looking forward to in 2013 - Getting my own place...assuming I can find a roommate

Starbucks order - venti white mocha

Coupon store - Joanns. It's bad, especially since I just downloaded the app.

The last time I pooped in a public bathroom was at a White Castle in East Rutherford NJ on Sunday. Classy.

[QUOTE]And to answer Beth's question: I'm hoping to buy a new car in 2013 and I'm really excited about it.
Posted by Elle1036[/QUOTE]

That is exciting! What kind of car?

Cschiano - That is so awesome that you are close to being finished with your PhD!

I forgot to answer my own question - I am most looking forward to getting my master's degree in 2013. (and hopefully getting married *fingers crossed*)

tuarceatha · November 2012

What's your favorite piece of clothing from your closet?
Totally skipped over this one before! Oops. Feels like I refilling drinks and I skipped over Lyn, my bad.

Those Cognac Steve Madden boots are a current favorite.

Stina51286 · November 2012

1. Tell us one thing going on in your life you want to share?
I am really starting to enjoy working at Buffalo Wild Wings and most of the people there plus I get to see my BFF for sure every weekend.

What's the one thing on your Christmas list you're actually really dying to have? FI has two rings at our local jeweler that I get for Xmas, it is both of our birth stones on separate rings and they join togther as one.
What is something you completely fail at? Being positive about myself.
How late do you sleep on days where you don't have to be up at any particular time? My body hates me, 6 am NO Matter what. I can go out til 2 am and still wake up at 6.

What are you looking forward to most in 2013? Marrying my best friend!
What is your Starbucks order? Grande skinny vanilla latte

Q: Favorite store?

fizzylemonade · November 2012

What's your favorite piece of clothing? My BF's college hoodie. So warm and big and comfy. If it has to be mine then
What are you looking forward to most in 2013? Vacation in Jan and summer in NJ!
What is your Starbucks order? Hot grande non-fat chai latte with two pumps of vanilla and three petite vanilla scones. Yum!
Favorite store? Probably the Limited. I find lots of stores way too crazy to want to deal with, but Limited is always very logically laid out and rarely crowded. The one in the mall by me has nice sales people too.

It sounds like everyone has lots of changes coming next year! So exciting!

Peaseblossom55 · November 2012

Yay summer in NJ!
Favorite store- Express

peekaboo2011 · November 2012

Oooh, favorite store - I'm dying over Sephora lately, but I also love Limited, Express, and Joanns, and Michaels, and I can't just pick one.

alleycat821 · November 2012

I want to play! But I'm completely overwhelemed by the three pages of questions.

See you in a couple hours! *Begins reading from the the beginning*

buddysmom80 · November 2012

Favorite store, really? That's like asking a kid what their favorite type of ice cream is.

My faves are Michaels, DSW, Homegoods, Target, Old Navy, Gap, Ann Taylor, Sephora, Ulta, Macy's, Petco and Kohl's

Most of these stores are 5 minutes away from me, really dangerous!

alleycat821 · November 2012

I finally finished!

1. Tell us one thing going on in your life you want to share?
BF living an hour a way is amazing, but it's deinfitely going to force us to deal with some stuff that was easy to avoid when we were LD.

b. Show us a picture. Of anything (work friendly, please).

It's cold here and I would give anything to be back in Venice, siting on a canal drinking a grapefruit granita. Those are my feet!

III. Add a question for us!
What shoes are you wearing right now? None! I hate wearing shoes inside.
What is one food item you wish you could have right now? Super cheesy texmex.
favorite thing about one of your siblings? My little brother turn 18 tomorrow! I really like how we've started to have more of a relationship over the last few years. He's one funny dude.
What's the one thing on your Christmas list you're actually really dying to have? I seriously need new running shoes.
What is something you completely fail at? Not stressing.
How late do you sleep on days where you don't have to be up at any particular time? Nine or ten, but it really depends on what I was doing the night before. For some reason, after a heavy night of drinking I always wake up super early the next morning.
What's your favorite healthy snack? Apples and peanut butter
Do you like peanut butter? If so, how do you like it? Yes!
Best movie you've seen as of late? I liked Skyfall a lot.
What is the last movie you saw in the theatre? Wreck-it-Ralph.
What's the one store you go to and buy stuff all the time and use the excuse of "well there's a coupon for it!" I never have coupons , but I use the "it's cheap!" excuse all the time pretty much everywhere.
What's your favorite piece of clothing from your closet? Sports bras and hoodies.
What are you looking forward to most in 2013? Hopefully getting a pup!
What is your Starbucks order? Grande iced red eye, no classic, no room.
Favorite store? Loft or Express. And Sephora. I miss shopping.

$50? I wish...BF and I went in a few weeks ago for a gallon of milk and sandwich meat. We spent $120 or something silly like that. Most expensive gallon of milk ever!

rdr - those shoes are soooo pretty!

steign · November 2012

Oops, I meant to say at least $50. I think I spent well over $100 last time trying to get stuff I needed around the house plus some groceries.

YAY! The first pair I ordered were too tall. Dream big, they say. I had to order a new pair 1.5 inches shorter to face reality--I can't really walk in heels.

Boo about not having the right color. 144 votives w/holders for $80 sounds like a GREAT deal. Go you.
