Not Another Pin Pic. I Promise.

I like to save these surveys for a rainy day. Or a day when all I have are dog photos cause I was alone all weekend and therefore starved for content.

So, instead of more dog pictures, you get this. A survey I borrowed from a couple blogs I read (Thanks Heather and Bethany!). Enjoy!

A is for age.  27.  Other than the fact that I hate odd numbers, it’s not so bad.

B is for breakfast today.  Coffee with French Vanilla creamer, and a cinnamon raisin bagel toasted with ample cream cheese.

C is for current craving.  Avocados.  My friend Laura made this recipe last weekend, and I ate it UP.

D is for dinner tonight.  Chicken Casserole and Mashed potatoes. Don’t think I’m some miracle worker.....look on the back of the Stovetop Stuffing box.

E is for favorite type of exercise.  Dance.  Because to me, it doesn’t feel like work.

F is for irrational fear.  I have irrational fears about everything from airplanes falling out of the sky to a crazed murderer breaking into my house at night.  I think it’s what makes me, me.

G is for gross food.  Dinner Sunday night. It was a soft taco casserole kit and I felt so sick after eating it that I still can’t even think about it.

H is for hometown.  Paoli PA

I is for something important.  Family.  Friends will come and go, but your family will be there forever (whether you like it or not!) ;)

J is for current jam.  “Without You” by David Guetta/Feat. Usher

K is for Kids. You know my thoughts on this ;)

L is for current location.  Woodbridge, VA.  (I do not live in the ghetto. A rant for another day…)

M is for the most recent way you spent money.  Paid our mortgage.  Oh sorry, were you looking for something more exciting??

N is for something you need.  An oil change.  Well, my car needs one.

O is for occupation.  Analyst. I wear many hats and I like it that way. I meet lots of people and have interesting experiences. I also work for a pretty awesome company.

P is for pet peeve.  I’ve spoken of this in the past. Dancers/Cheerleaders that don’t take the hair ties off their wrists before performing.  Is that part of the uniform? I don’t think so.

Q is for quote. Got a bunch of crap for putting this one on my bio once….

“There are big ships and small ships, but the best ship of all is FRIENDSHIP!”

R is for random fact about you.  When I was little, I used to turn on music and choreograph dances for my My Little Ponies. 

S is for favorite healthy snack.  Healthy? Umm… 

T is for favorite treat.  A Pineapple Dole Whip sounds delicious right now.  (Google it)

U is for something that makes you unique.  I’d say my purple nail polish with pink glitter is pretty unique at the moment ;)

V is for favorite vegetable.  Is Avocado a vegetable?

W is for today’s workout.  It’s Tuesday so normally I’d say dance class. But the studio is closed for spring break, so we’ll be running again tonight.

X is for x-rays you’ve had.   Dental. A lot.

Y is for yesterday’s highlight.  I made breaded chicken and didn’t burn it!!!!!!

Z is for your time zone.  Eastern Daylight Time.  Thank goodness for that.

Mushy Survey

Saw this survey on a few blogs over Valentine's Day, but since I'm always behind the curve I'm just getting to it now. I figured it would be a good way to keep you entertained while I'm gallavanting around Orlando ;)

1. How long have you and your significant other been together?

We've been together since July of 2007… so… about 4.5 years. Wow.

2. How did you meet? {What's your "love" story?}

Oh our love story is really classy.  We met in college through mutual friends.  But we didn't really fall in love until we started hanging out after college.  We were still partying like we were IN college, however, and lots of beers aided in our interest in each other.  We started hanging out and eventually went on our first "date"- to the movies to see "Transformers"...haha  That was when I realized I really liked him J

3. If married, how long have you been married? If not, is this the guy you hope to marry? {do tell}

We got hitched on 10-10-10.  This October it will be 2 years.

4. If you are married, where did you get married at? Big or small wedding? If not, where would you like to get married? And will it be big or small?

We got married in the town where I grew up in Pennsylvania.  We had a medium size wedding with about 150 guests.  It was a gorgeous day and we were married outside under a gazebo. 

5. Do you have any nick-names that you call one another? Do share!

Umm we have a bunch of dumb ones, your typical "babe" or "boo", and yes, "Mommy" and "Daddy" in reference to the dogs.  Whatever. This blog is a judge-free zone, FYI!

6. Name 3 things you love most about your honey.

-I mentioned this one before- he is terrible at keeping secrets. Which makes it 10x more adorable when he successfully does this and I end up with a surprise!

-He is so thoughtful and creative.  Always knows how to make me smile.

-He is my protector. He has taught me how to protect myself (with words, not just guns…haha) but I know that he has my back 100% and will always take good care of me, no matter what.

-He LOVES Disney. It's the cutest thing EVER.

-He's my best friend.

-Ok that was 5 things…

7. Tell us how he proposed? Or your ideal proposal?

He proposed in our apartment, just the two of us, after driving to Pennsylvania and back in one day to ask my parents' permission.  It was private, just the two of us (and his dog, Bandit), and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way.  I was working in pro-sports at the time, and I've seen a ton of public proposals.  They all make me so nervous, I told him I'd say no if he did that to me.  (Jokinggg)

8. Is he a flowers and teddy bear kind of guy for v-day, or strawberries, champagne, and rose petals?

Apparently he is a surprise-you-at-work-with-roses kind of guy.  And a meet-you-at-the-door-with-champagne kind of guy J

9. Are you a sunset dinner on the beach kind of girl, or pop a movie in and relax on the couch?

I think I am a sunset beer on the beach kind of girl…

10. Tell us one thing you'd like to do with your significant one day. If you could do anything? Go anywhere?

I already wrote a whole post about this and put up a poll. Nexxxt.

11. Give us one piece of advice of keeping a relationship strong and full of love.

Take turns doing the dishes.

12. Show us a picture of what love means to you.



I'd like to re-visit this survey in a couple of years to see what things have changed, and what have stayed the same!

Have a magical day!
