Now you know my ABCs

Gracias to Jodee for giving me another reason to blog. I'm always willing to write about myself!

A- ATTACHED OR SINGLE: Single. Much to my father's chagrin.
B- BEST FRIEND: Well it used to be Diet Coke, but now I'm just left with my Mom, Mandi, Natalie, Aaron and Lindsay (together, not separately), Steven, and TiVo (just like Miranda).
C- CAKE OR PIE: Never met a dessert I didn't like. But I have to agree with Jodee on cupcakes. Generally, any food that is presented in smaller form is not only cuter, but also more delicious (which Elise used to point out all the time).
D- DAY OF CHOICE: For the first time in my life I have Saturdays off and they are glorious. But if we're going for a specific day then I would have to say Christmas.
E- ESSENTIAL ITEMS: Cellphone, the internet (luckily my phone has the internet, so that makes things handy), mascara, television, high heels
F- FAVORITE COLOR: Purple. Probably because I'm so regal.
G- GUMMY BEARS OR GUMMY WORMS: Bears, but only the pink, red, and white ones. If you say you like green, you're lying.
H- HOMETOWN: I'm a nomad, never lived anywhere longer than 3 years (except Provo nowadays). I guess either Bellevue, WA or Coeur d'Alene, ID.
I- INDULGENCE: Every paycheck I splurge on something I don't need, and I am always able to justify it by saying that I deserve it for some reason (something good happened, I had a bad day, the weather is nice, etc). Most recently this habit resulted in a new vanity for my room, so I can't really complain.
J- JANUARY OR JULY: July. I tend to get really patriotic, but I suspect it's really more of a fashion choice than a political one.
K- KIDS: I love other people's kids (well, some....I'm picky). As for me, I'm ok with just me for now.
L- LIFE IS INCOMPLETE WITHOUT: I'm trying to think of the correct answer here. Something that makes me sound deep and existential.
M- MARRIAGE DATE: Some time about 4 score and 7 years away from now.
N- NUMBER OF SIBLINGS: two sisters, one brother, all younger. They're so lucky to have me as an example.
O- ORANGES OR APPLES: Oranges, but only if they're those teeny tiny Clementine Cuties. Otherwise I'll take a grapefruit, thank you.
P- PHOBIAS OR FEARS: Seahorses. Scary movies. Egypt. Bird flu. Being caught in a Die Hard/Cloverfield situation without appropriate footwear.
Q- QUOTES: 90% of the things that come out of my mouth are quotes from a tv show or a movie, and when I do manage to come up with a creative quip of my own, people always ask "What's that from?"
R- REASON TO SMILE: This is silly, I'm supposed to pinpoint only one reason to smile?
S- SEASON: Spring is my absolute favorite. I love the sun and I love the rain.
T- TAGGED FRIENDS: I don't discriminate.
U- UNKNOWN FACT ABOUT ME: Geez I have disclosed so much on my blog already that I don't think I have any secrets left. Ummm...this isn't really unknown, but I am rarely the person who calls others to organize some sort of event. I mostly wait for other people to call me. Some would call that shy, I just call it lazy.
V- VERY FAVORITE STORE: I do manage to lose all sense of time and money when I walk into a Target. Other than that my heart belongs to Nordstrom.
W- WORST HABIT: Gossip. I can't keep my big mouth shut. Also, I have a habit of talking really loudly, which doesn't really bother me, but I've heard it is not that great for other people...
X- XRAY, ULTRASOUND, OR MAMMOGRAM: Well if I'm having a mammogram it means I have cancer and if I'm having an ultrasound it means I'm knocked up, so I guess xray. By default. Unless we're talking xray vision, in which case the answer is absolutely xray.
Y- YOUR FAVORITE FOOD: I'm not a picky eater. I love Indian food and sea food, and I have a Bajio salad at least once a week.
Z- ZODIAC: Sagittarius. Wikipedia says that this makes me impatient, a witty conversationalist, intelligent, adventurous, independent, energetic, and tempermental. Sounds about right to me.

I feel really proud I knew so much of this stuff...I hope you are ready for the quiz though. I'd hate to find out that you don't know America...I may have to report you. I have Homeland Security on speed dial...which is helpful for a landline but slightly silly on my cell phone- that was neither here nor there...just get the answers right!

All I have to say is I do not want xray vision. you'd have to be a doctor or something and everyone would go to you because then they wouldn't have to pay for an xray. And what about when you went to the store and you saw that someone had something awful, you'd be morally compelled to tell them. I do not think that would be a blessing.

Yay! I made #3 best friend!! I guess I'm okay with playing second fiddle to Karen and Mandi... but I like to think it's a three way tie. Love you!

when lindsay saw i was reading this she ditched her computer to read it with me.

i feel like more than half of this was a secret nod to me. some people would call that being conceited. i call it being "myself".

I love everything about this. That's all there is to say.
