So I'm doing this because I don't have anything to post, and even I'm sick of looking at my christmas post


-Any names your parents were thinking about that you would prefer?
I am madly in love with my name, and my parents must have been too because they weren't thinking of any other names either.

-If you had to pick one outfit that you currently own to wear for the rest of your life, what would it consist of?
A pair of jeans, a 3/4 sleeve tee, and a hoodie jacket. So I want to be comfortable, so what.

-What TV show have you seen every episode of?
Arrested Development, Gilmore girls, The X-files, Ghost Writer, Psych, and The Office

-What movie can you quote every line to?
What movie from my childhood can't I quote. My mom use to show it off and I would start quoting movies for them, I even did the music in the background that was between lines. Here's a few of them: Cinderella, The Little Mermaid, The Princess Bride (which was odd to memorize as a child because now as an adult the jokes make sense), all the disney sing alongs, It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, Sister Act, Beauty and the Beast, While You Where Sleeping, Sabrina, Sense and Sensiblity, Remember the Titains, October Sky. I'm going to stop there, I'm embarassing myself.

-What bands have you seen in concert?
Tim McGraw, STYX (3 times, I love STYX), Journey, REO Speedwagon, Yellow Card, Relient K, Mae, The Brobeks (not sure I'm spelling that right), and a few Big "A" shows and Warp Tours

-What bands would you like to see in concert?
Ones that are impossible: Garth Brooks, The Beetles, and Simon and Garfunkle. I might see Adam Lambert, the kid can entertain.

-If you had the money to retire anywhere in the world, where would you go?
Eden, as in Eden Utah. I've always loved it there and it's close to my favorite resort.

-Is there a piece of jewelry or something similar that if you lost, you would feel naked?
Does my cell phone count, no, I gues it would have to be my wedding ring, although I don't wear it much because of my job.

-What is one thing [appearance-wise or other] you would change about yourself?
I wish I had a crazy high metabolism like my husband that would allow me to me warm all the time, eat what ever I want, and never gain a pound.

-One thing you would change about your best friend?
How much he moves around in his sleep.

-Everyone remembers their first birthday party that involved friends. Describe yours.
I don't remember much. I rememeber I was turning five, my friends were all invited and they all wanted to play with my new Barbi doll.

-If you could go back in time and change your first kiss, would you?
No, for being a first kiss it was pretty good.

-How many times have you said “I love you” to someone of the opposite sex [romantically] and meant it?
I say it every day and only ever to one person, My Favorite (Sean).

-How many times have you said it and not meant it?
Sometimes I say it a little Sarcastically to friends and family, but even then I mean it.

-Which member of your family has the biggest influence on your life?
My mom, even now.

-If you won a $1,000 shopping spree to one store, what store would you want it to be?
REI, that store is so expensive but has everything I want.

-How old were you when you learned how to ride a bike?
Six, it was purple with training wheels.

-Describe the first real party you ever went to [i.e. first party with alcohol].
It was a work party when I first started at LDS Hospital, that's when I realized people aren't really very fun when they are drunk, unless you are drunk yourself.

-Did you like high school? Why or why not?
I was indifferent to high school, probably because I didn't go.

-Do you prefer the sound of electric, acoustic, or steel guitar?
Electric, Classic Rock lives on.

-Have you ever read the Bible – even just a little part of it?
Yes, mostly the Four Gospels. But I did read the entire Bible once.

-Out of all the states you’ve visited/lived in, which is your favorite?
Utah, but Oregon comes in at a close second.

-Do you enjoy jigsaw puzzles?
Yes, but not all at once. I like to start a puzzle and leave it for a while, come back, work on it some more, and leave it for a while. It drives Sean nuts.

-What’s the best Christmas present you ever received?
When I was about five or six I went into my Dad's shop and he was making these toys out of wood for charity. There were blocks, trains, baby doll cradles, little rocking chairs, and doll houses. I saw the doll houses and said how much I wanted one and why should the other children get a doll house when I didn't even have one. After some talking to a strong lesson in charity I decided it was alright if the other kids had a doll house and I didn't because at least I had a house to live in. That Christmas when I went up stairs my dad had made a doll house for us too.

-Which of your birthdays was the most memorable?
My 22nd, That was the day that I shared a birthday with another roommate and another friend. We spend the day at my friend Tia's pool, went to the drive in early to play games and have pizza, then we stayed for a couple of movies. It was so much fun and is now a tradition every year.

-Out of all the teachers you’ve had, who had the biggest influence on you?
I had one teacher who had the biggest influence on me and I'm not going to say her name because some of you might know her, and it wasn't a positive impatct. Knowing what I know now I can understand why she did it, she was going through a really rough point in her life. But out of all my classes which were average grades she was failing me. I would ask her why and she would say "you know why." I didn't, I was handing in my assignments and I was learning the material. So when my Mom saw that I was failing, she made an appointment with the teacher and asked why I was failing. The teacher said out right to my mother that I was unintelligent, lazy, and should have been held back in a remedial class. My mom pulled me out of her class immedieatly, but unfortunately the dammage had been done and after that my grades plummeted because I believed her.

- When you were little, what was your favorite Disney movie?
Beauty and the Beast

-What’s your favorite Disney movie now?
Finding Nemo

-What’s your favorite kind of chips?
Cool Ranch Doritos (mostly because they remind me of my mom)

-That you know of, do you have any famous ancestors?
I don't think I do, but I know that Sean is descended from Charlemagne.

-Did you ever beg your parents for a pony?
Did I ever. I wanted a horse so bad I begged my parents for one from age 6 to age 12

-Would you rather be blind or deaf?
Deaf, I think it would be an easier transition.

-What’s the stupidest TV show on the air right now?
A lot of people are going to hate me for this one, but Glee. It's like they took a bunch of twelve year old girls and had them write the script. Did the fans of Gossip Girl get together and write a musical? Oh, there's another one, Gossip Girl. Also Big Love, I'm just not a fan.

Last but not least, type some funny or inspiring lyrics as a closing:
A song....ok...
I'm singing and I'm blogging
And I didn't have anything to write about
But here I am....I'm writing...
And I love you, I love you, I love you.
(Yes I love Elf)

That was SO fun to read...I'm tempted to put it on my blog! The show I have seen every episode is Saved by the Bell & the movie I can quote every line is Newsies. My favorite movie as a kid was Beauty & the Beast too! So fun to think back on our younger years...

That was fun! I think your 22nd was probably my most memorable birthday party too (even thought it wasn't my birthday). I love a warm summer night and a reason to celebrate with friends. I wish it were summer right now....
