more stuff about me cause i like talking about myself.



What I was doing 10 years ago:
Graduating from high school, my gandfather just died, we went to alex for the last time. i was getting ready to go back to college (i went while in high school) and i was sad because my high school boyfriend and i decided to break up since he was going to college in california.

Five years ago:
i had just started at E., my first job in programming. I had been in my condo for a year but i finally had money to really get started on remodling. Sara and Nathan got married and out of love for them i wore a lilac colored dress in their wedding. it clashed with my hair.

One year ago:
i was broke. i was halfway through my year of schooling and i was working two part-time jobs. i spent a lot of time watching the tour de france and hanging out with levi and nate. i also painted a space invader on my living room wall.

Yesterday:
got a loan for the condo next door, worked late and watched the tour de france.


Five snacks I enjoy:
cheese, oat and honey bars, bananas, pears and gum


Five songs I know all the words to:
i can't remember words to things. seriously, i would be a horrible actor, i can't remember lines either.


Five Things I would do with $100 million:
get a phd, give a bunch to the aliveness project, remodel my condo super swanky, travel and build the pool house

Five locations I would like to run away to:
london, paris, the boundry waters, thai land, new zealand.

Five things I like doing:
working on my condo, programming, hanging out online, reading, and watching tv.

Five bad habits I have:
biting my nails, swallowing gum, riding the clutch, over reacting, being lazy

Five things I would never do:
cheat on someone, help someone cheat, be able to keep a secret, call a plumber, be a teenage mother

Five things I would never wear:
halter tops, jock strap, purple, fur, or offensive words

Five TV shows I like:
alias, lost, firefly, stargate, battlestar galatica (the new one!)

Five biggest joys of the moment:
Harry Potter, My double-wide condo, my job, my cats, my brother being home

Five favorite toys:
My new double-wide condo, my ipod, my gym membership, my work computer, and my new orange tree.

I've always been told that swallowing gum is bad for you blah blah blah, I think it actually tastes quite nice, it's like a better tasting fibre diet....the clutch riding part is kinda funny since the rest of the world doesn't think americans drive manual cars, the amount of people that have said to me "your an american, do you know how to drive a stick-shift?" kinda freaky that hey think wer're too lazy to ride the clutch...

that is wha ti think about swallowing gum. plus i think it is gross to throw it away.

my normal car is an automatic but since my car is in the shop for so long i have been driving my dad's. i actually like driving a manual because it is more fun to drive. i just forgot how much i ride the clutch. it brings me back to my learning to drive years and my dad making me help him change a clutch so i would stop doing it. LOL

i have some hello kitty temporary tattoos, how about that?

so, not only did i get a new engine, i got a new transmission out of it too. it is like a brand new car.

The Hello Kitty will only be acceptable if you put one of those giant exhausts on it so it's purrs like a kitty

grrrr is good

and yes. that was the weird thing about the coworker that asked me out, i tend to seem uninterested in things outside of whatever group i am in so no one approaches me. i have to make an effort to open up. it isn't just guys and dating, it is in everything except online. online i am much less that way which may explain why i can only stay friends with people that i talk to online.

yeah but you can't bitch-slap on-line when someone pisses ya off...not that I would but the daydream of doing doesn't seem to have the same effect..

yeah, it is too much work to think about flying somewhere, bitch-slapping them, then going back home.
