In progress…
- I am 36 but I pass for mid-20s all the time

- I’m passionate about cheese and pumpkins
- I love Autumn, October, gourds and Fall leaves. I mean, LOVE
- I have only seen snow
one time, (ETA Chicago 2012) on vacation December 2004, when Ash proposed - We were married October 15th, 2005, in a beautiful outdoor wedding
- My favorite red wine is La Crema pinot noir, white: Conundrum Sauvignon Blanc
- I like to drink a glass every now and then, especially in winter
- I have become more of a beer person over the last few years; IPAs for me!
- We also recently bought a kegerator and I love having beer on tap at home
- In the winter, I take a bath every night
- I actively collected Xmen from 1993 until about 1996, have always shipped Wolvie/Jubilee, and thought the 3rd movie was a travesty unto Xmen fans everywhere. But the first two were pretty good
- I think armadillos and sloths are cute
- I get pretty nostalgic about the past about once a month or so and try to write my “memoirs” to no avail
- My favorite time of day is sunset; I love driving at dusk

- I have always loved dinosaurs
- I hate reverse osmosis bottled water
- I try to eat as healthy as possible; sometimes cake gets the best of me
- I’m a bit obsessive about the Weather Channel; the music for the Local on the 8s makes me feel nostalgic
- I’m particularly enthralled by all things Disney… World. I wouldn’t want you to picture me as one of those girls who wears a Mickey sweatshirt and buys everything Disney related. I just love being at Disney World and the way it makes me forget that there’s an outside world.
- I do not eat fast food.
- Or lima beans
- Most bugs do not bother me but those big lubber grasshoppers freak me the heck out.

currentBatman comic collector and pretty entrenched in the Batworld. Nightwing is my favorite, though I guess I can’t say that anymore because Dick is Batman now. - I had an article published in Pregnancy Magazine
- I finally caved and started reading romance novels
- I have two sons and one daughter

I used to know someone who was related to Daniel Boone. In fact, his name is Daniel Boone. Wonder if you guys are related to each other.
Huh, I don’t know but I might could ask my grandfather because he got really into the genealogy.
I’m with you on the pedicures
what a load of crap – get a life
^^ shut up lol
you sound like a cool person
I don’t do scrabble. Now monopoly? That is the truth..
Hoot! I live for the weather channel during the construction season, but in the early morning, after I’ve waited 9 minutes for weather on the 8’s, that damn music puts me to sleep. So I wait another 9 minutes…
And I hate Scrabble. Cat, Bat, At, Sat, Rat, Gnat and Mat are about all I can manage.
The thing about Scrabble is that if you play it online enough, you start to memorize bigger, more complicated words. And you get better!
I’m afraid my pride will not allow me to play for the years it would take to move beyond monosyllabic words.
(See? I even had to break out “monosyllabic” just to make myself feel better!)
You should totally change the one point about coming in second in fantasy football last season…or add the fact that you won this year. 🙂
You found about Elliot on my b-day!!! Awesome…I could do some ice-cream too.
In “creepy ways in which the internet connects you to very similar people” news: I also have a son named E(lliott), who was born a year and a day before your second baby.
I also think “And Out Come the Wolves” is pretty awesome, though apparently Tim Armstrong is a Nazi now or something? That would make me sad.
Once you get into the running stuff we have nothing in common, but the first few facts are pretty cool. 🙂
I love The Weather Channel! I used to like how the computer voice would say, “Your local forecast, accurate and dependable.” Then, apparently realizing they’re also forecasting in Minnesota where weather forecasting is anything but accurate and dependable, they dropped that part. I love Scrabble but I can’t play it because I get too panicky trying to think of words I know when I’m not playing Scrabble.
I have to agree about the third X-Men movie. Absolutely horrible! Also, being passionate about cheese is a trait more people need to have 😉
Oct 15th is a good date… it’s my birthday!
And I LOVE fall, too.
Love Scrabble! Do you have an iPod, iPad, iPhone? Words with Friends? Super fun! and I can so relate to this: “I have two sons and no, we’re not sad about it and not trying for the girl. At least, not yet.” OMG I can go on and on and write a whole blog post about this! I have 1 son but my family (and husband’s family) is ALL male. Yeah, I hear stupid comments one too many times!
🙂
I’d love to say that I’ve found “my blogger mate” in you, but boy, could we be more different! Really, this is probably the first time I’ve found a blogger whom I’ve found so different from me, and actually LIKE her :))!!! If you put NOT in all your DOs above and vice versa, that’s me!
Ok, I better stop now. Starting to not make any sense. But anyhow, you’re awesome!
You say cheese like its a bad thing…
I love the fall as well. When I lived on top of my mountain in West Virginia I wouldnt even go across the state line into Maryland- family had to come visit me. We live in Ga now and I hate the lack of REAL seasons.
I’m completely with you on the hair bands!
Hey, I’ve kissed the Blarney Stone – it really is SO cool. And of course we bought the photos and the t-shirts to prove it. HaHa
It was on our honeymoon so it made it all the more special. If you ever get to go to Ireland, you will really love it! =)
I so love 80’s hair rock. Nothing puts a smile on my face more.
My family is related to Daniel Boone too! – Love the list!
I’m mid 30’s also and people always think I’m early 20’s! I guess it will come in handy when we’re 80, right? And armadillos ARE the cutest!
