Tag!

I'm not big on the tagging, but I like that this one had specific questions. It's also been a while since I've been tagged so I figured I would share. Plus this time I was double tagged. Which means that more than one person should be obligated to read this. And if you were wondering, I actually filled this out on Thursday afternoon but am just getting around to polishing and posting it tonight.

1. What time did you get up this morning?
Um, 8:30 or 9. But 8:30 makes me sound like less of a slacker, so we'll go with that
2. What do you usually have for breakfast?
Honey Nut Cheerios or a bagel if there's juice in the house. I can only eat bagels if I can have juice. Pancakes if we're out of everything else.
3. What is your favorite CD at the moment?
Ooh, toughie. I guess I am going to say Mojave 3 "Puzzles Like You" but really it depends on the time of day.
4. What kind of car do you drive?
03 Honda Pilot. Teal.
5. Favorite sandwich?
Any kind I don't have to make. Subway's chipotle chicken is one of my all-time faves, though I haven't had one for a long time.
6. Favorite item of clothing?
Jeans. I would wear jeans to church if I could.
7. If you could go anywhere in the world for a vacation, where would you go?
New Zealand, England, Ireland - anywhere off this continent where some form of English is spoken, basically.
8. What color is your bathroom?
Bright blue and green (at least the linens). The walls are all white, except for the rust and mold stains. Eww.
9. Where would you retire?
Maybe Northern California. There's No Cal Like Nor Cal!
10. Most memorable birthday?
I can't remember. So maybe that means it is yet to come.
11. Favorite sport to watch?
Basketball. (Unless American Gladiators is considered a sport...)
12. Are you a morning person or a night person?
NIGHT - unless you count 1:30 am as the morning, then I guess I'm a morning person after all.
13. What is your shoe size?
7 1/2 or 8, but I think my feet are shrinking, I used to wear 9 1/2!
14. Pets?
Only Zoe. But someday we'll have a beagle named Bosco and a cat named Cosmo (Seinfeld anyone?)
15. What did you want to be when you were little?
I think I remember wanting to be a teacher or an astronaut, but mostly I just wanted to be a mom.
16. What are you today?
Domestic Engineer. Childcare Specialist. Not-So-Gourmet Chef.
17. What is your favorite candy?
Reese's Peanut Butter Freakin Cups. Hands down, no competition.
18. Your favorite flower?
Snap dragons, Irises. I'm not a huge flower person in general.
19. What is a day on the calendar you are looking forward to?
Jan 31 (Lost), Feb 7 (Survivor) and a couple other travel dates that we have planned but will not be disclosing on the www.
20. What are you listening to right now?
The silence of Zoe's nap. And garbage trucks. Always with the garbage trucks around here.
21. What is the last thing you ate?
Zoe's leftover chicken nuggets from lunch.
22. Do you wish on stars?
Not that I'm aware.
23. What faith are you?
I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
24. Who was the last person you spoke with on the phone?
James, maybe. I don't know.
25. Hair Color?
Is dark blond a legitimate hair color? Who cares, it will be changing shortly....stay tuned!
26. Name of your favorite school teacher?
Ms. Davey. AP English rocks my world!
27. Chocolate or vanilla?
Chocolate. Unless I am baking and the recipe calls for vanilla. Then Vanilla.
28. When was the last time you cried?
I don't cry. Or at least I won't admit to it.
29. What is under your bed?
Wrapping paper, extra bedding, empty duffle bags, various holiday decor.
30. What did you do last night?
Made a late run to the library, let James record me reading a book for one of his classes. I am so serious.
31. Favorite smell?
Dinner, Zoe after a bath.
32. What are you afraid of?
Nearly everything.
33. How many towns have you lived in?
3, 4 if you count Orem and Provo as separate towns.
34. Do you make friends easily?
Depends. If by easily you mean that once people realize and accept that I'm tactless, blunt, and sarcastic then they still want to associate with me, then yes, I make friends with the greatest of ease.

I'm not big on tagging others, especially since I don't know who all's been tagged already. If you read this and think that you would like to share this information about yourself, feel free to do so. I would encourage those new to the blogging world (like Andrea G., LaDonna, Megan Jane, Alisha) but please don't feel compelled.

Personally, I love the mold/mildew/rust bathroom decor. It's one of my favorite things about my apartment. I use the same decorating sources for my kitchen. :)

I wish I didn't cry. I've seen you close to it once, so I guess that means I know you pretty well.
