  1.  What do you think is the cause of the freaky Arkansas dead birds (and other locations)?
  I say they all ran into a UFO in mid flight and came crashing down.... but really I have no idea.
  
  2.  What do your wedding shoes look like?  Include a pic for bonus points
  
    I got those from Zappos.  I'll probably switch to platform flip flops for the reception.
  
  
  3.  How stoked are you now that it is FINALLY 2011?!?!? (this is geared towards 2011 Brides )
  OMG, SO STOKED... I got engaged way back in Oct. 2009 and thought 2011 would never arrive.
  
  4.  What are your thoughts on Prince William and Kate Middleton's engagement and wedding?
  I LUV it all.  I love her ring, and I love that they are getting married the week before me.  I love Spring weddings, and royal weddings especially.  I will wake up whenever on that Friday morning so I can watch the ceremony live.  I can't wait until they start having babies.... I the royal family (especially Prince William).
  
  5.  What is the most random object on your desk at work?
  It is probably the Auburn University logo on my nameplate, it's a dig at our VP, who is a HUGE Duck fan, and I'm a HUGE Husky fan... so my enemy's enemy is my friend... lol
  
  6.  What other boards on TK do you post on or lurk on?
  I lurk on Just Engaged, E, DIY, Retro & Vintage, and Invites & Paper on the national boards.  I think I've posted twice on E.
  
  7.  Do you have baby fever?  If so, how bad?
  I have it a tiny bit, but I think we should wait a couple of years before we start TTC.  My furbaby is my baby for right now.
  
  8.  Are there any major current events that I didn't include?  Please enter those here:
  Can't think of any other than what I posted.
  
  9.  Who is your celebrity crush?
  Jeff Goldblum, always and will forever be my celebrity crush.
  
  10.  How many weeks until your wedding?
  17 +
  
  11.  What did you have/will have for lunch?
  I'm having leftover Mac & Cheese.
  
  12.  Allegedly the average age of a first time bride is 26, how many years off of that are you?
  I will be 26 by my wedding day, so totally average.
  
  13.  Has the Seahawks playoff game interfered with your Seattle Wedding Show plans?
  Not really, since I planned to attend early on Saturday anyway.  I plan on leaving around 1pm and watching the game at a sports bar near the Convention Center.
  
  14.  What is usually a part of your wedding nightmares?  (if you have them)
  I'm either pregnant or there is something horribly wrong with my dress.
  
  15.  What fashion trend (wedding related or not) are you SICK of?
  Boys in skinny jeans, just don't get it.
  
  16.  Do you plan on changing your last name after you're married?
  YES!  So excited to be Mrs. FI's last name.  There isn't really anything wrong with my last name, but I think it's really romantic to have the same last name as your SO (as long as you aren't blood-related, lol).
  
  17.  What's your favorite alcoholic drink?
  Right now it is vodka soda, but that's only because I'm trying to be smarter with the calories I take in when I drink.
  
  18.  What is your favorite cupcake store in the Seattle area?
  Yellowleaf in Belltown.
  
  19.  If you could get married in any other season (other than the one you are actually getting married in), what would it be? (Winter, Spring, Summer, or Fall)
  I would get married in the Fall (preferably November).
  
  20.  When was the last time you were in Las Vegas?  Details... if you wanna
  I went last March for my MOH's bachelorette party... nothing too scandalous happened.  3 out of the 6 people there did lose their IDs, so that was kinda crazy... I blame Tao.
