Ok Fun New Tag... Cause right now my life has NOTHING GOING ON. Nothing. Really.

Ok, so since my life has nothing much going on except lugging screaming kids around and trying to keep track of them as the trek all over the neighborhood .... I decided I would pick up on Nat's tag that she created. :D

So this tag is all about who I think are HOTTIES (outside of Jer OF COURSE.... ummm DUH!)

TV ACTOR

On this one I have to go with Joshua Jackson.... mmmmm .... ooooo... ahhhhhh. Yeah he was on everything from Might Ducks back in the day, to Dawson's Creek, and now Fringe.

CLASSIC ACTOR

.

Gene Kelly (mostly cause everyone else KNOWS Marlon Brando is hot.... and I didn't want to pic the same twice).

No runner up, cause honestly, I don't know many classic actors (I KNOW!!! SINNER! yup, that's me)

.

.

MUSIC ARTIST

Any of the guys from Tally Hall. Actually, I didn't pick them cause they are hot, sorry... I picked them cause I like their music. I don't think of musicians by how they look usually. Heck, usually I don't KNOW how they look...cause I usually hear them on my car radio. WAHOOOO! So they win, cause they are spunky and creative and I like them.

No runner up, sorry.

OPPOSITE SEX ACTOR

Nicole Kidman hands down. She has always been my idea of beautiful. She looks like she could be made of porcelain. Very classic beauty.

Runner Up:

Queen Latifah, I know, total opposite and absolutely gorgeous when she wants to be. And seams unapologetic for not being the stereotypical beautiful (aka size 0).

Soooooo, that is that. Now you do it!!! :D

Oooo Somebody LIKES me! :)

Becky and FluffyChicky tagged me! So I guess I'd better get runnin :)

Random and/or weird?! Ok, I think I've got this :)

1. When I was in college I once stopped and gave a hitchhiker a ride. (it was totally raining, I felt bad for him... and he was skinny and I figured I could take him if I had to... ) I was old enough to "know better" and he was a hippy. Totally smelled of something suspicious, I told him he had better not have any on him, and he said he didn't, I had suspicions but I gave him a ride anyways. He was really weird.

2. Once when I was about ten years old I road my bike about 5 miles to a friends house. If that doesn't sound too bad, I did it to "show" my big sister I would. She was supposed to be watching me and when I asked her to drive me to my friends house she refused... I pestered the CRAP out of her till she got SERIOUSLY annoyed and told me if I wanted to go so bad I should just ride my bike. So I did. Yes, I was a serious PUNK as a kid. (Sorry Win!)

3. I got a navel pierce right after I met Jer and suckered him into getting a pierce too, you know, for SYMPATHY pain. :) BTW both of our piercings are now no more... besides I don't think navel piercings and being hugely pregnant three times would work too well :P

4. I'm way paranoid about window wells :) Check out #3 on that post, I think it pretty much sums up that weirdness....

5. I had about a billion animals as a kid and absolutely loved it, but now in hindsight totally pity my mother for having to go through that!!! 4 horses, 2 cats, 2 birds, and a dog all at the same time would put ME into the mental hospital. SERIOUSLY. My mother is totally wonder women. And my kids will be lucky to have ONE animal at a time... poor poor depraved children!

6. I'm a total perfectionist as far as cleaning goes. So I just don't do it most of the time. That's right!!! Because I can literally take up to three hours cleaning one bathroom. I just don't know when to stop. So, instead of cleaning I now flutter my eyes at Jer and say something to the effect of "oooooooh maaaaaaaaaan, I reeeeeeeaaaaallly need to clean the bathrooms.... SIGH." Then if that doesn't work, I ask him to do it for me the next day while I wipe the counter.

7. I had like fifty kagillion nicknames as a kid. Mostly from my dad :) And some of them were really strange. Let me list some m'kay? (this may enlightened you about some of the names on the poll.) K, here goes.... Pril, Pearl, Aprillium, Scrapper Belly (and alternately "Scrapper" or "Belly"), Scrapperillium, Wretched Child (in response to "Old Man"), Little Retard Girl (here's a nod to my oldest sister!), Egg roll, Apes and many more that I can't think of at the moment.... Seriously!? How many nicknames can a kid have? :D

KK and now I get to touch some peoples lives! Woot.

1. Erika (cause she helped me think of some of these... HAHAHA teach YOU to help a friend! )

2. Arin

3. Rachelle

4. Nat

5. Kar

6. Stephanie

7. And last but NOT least! Melissa!

Tag from Kar!

Ok, tagged by Kar... and BTW Kar.... really, this is real... keep in mind that my house is up for sale though so it's required to be either clean, or able to get that way lightning fast!

1. Laundry Room - oops left the Zout out.. oh well I'll probably need it in the next half hour anyways :)

2. Favorite Room - This is a close one... the bedroom was in high contention! But I really do spend WAY too much time HERE!

3. Favorite Shoes - One is wet from a moment of airheadedness this morning... but I wear these all the time (outside of church of course... they just wouldn't look right with a dress.

4. The Toilet - Thank you Jer!

5. The Kitchen Sink -OOOOOOO Sparkly! Thank you Fly Lady and the fact that I had a MLS tour yesterday... it isn't usually that sparkly.

6. The Fridge - Thank goodness you can't peek into the containers ... or behind them for that matter!

7. What the kids are doing: Goober is watching Star Wars and Missy is busy tormenting Little Li (actually this is her giving back something she just took from him cause I got mad at her)

8. Self Portrait - Niiiiice, showin my religion... and what is that spot on my face... and why are my eyes lopsided!?!? I swear one is more open than the other!

9. My Closet - Crazy hangers, very little organization, no order to clothing...... this is one place I kinda ignore....

10. Dream Vacation: Actually, right now I would prefer a nanny to any vacation... so I could SLEEP for a change! :D

Now it's time to tag.... mmmm. How about..... Andrea, Erika, Tandee.... and yeah.. that is all I will inflict this upon!

Tag from Kar

This is a really interesting tag. You're supposed to grab the nearest book, go to page 123, find the fifth sentence, type it onto your post, and then tag five friends. So here it is:

"I showed Leah where you where you could get into the alligator pear tree and she boosted me up."

ok so I admit that the 6th sentence... the fifth was really boring! "It was the best thing that happened." just doesn't make you think the book is anything special. It's from The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver. And I just started reading it... so I really have no clue what those sentences are even about! :) It's a book that I'm reading for book club and when I noticed that Kar tagged me it wasn't just the closest book to me, I was literally reading it...

We'll see if I think it is good or not in a few days. I'll let you know. :)

KK now my turn to tag. mmmm. Erika, Holli, Tandee, and Kara.. if you want to. And yes I know that isn't 5 people! Sue me!

6 Unspectacular Quirks About Me....

1. Here goes.... first I'm really nutty about the placement of my glass at the table. It seriously drives me a little nutty when it's placed wrong. I could care less about the utensils or even the plate... but the cup? Nope, that needs to be at exactly a 45 degree angle from the top of my plate towards the right hand side. Jeremy used to tease me about this by sneakily moving it mid meal to see how fast I would notice.... grrr. I've since become a little less anal about it. I think having kids will do that to you! :)

2. Ok, you know those moments in the day when you get really tired? Almost predictably? Yeah I have 2. One in the afternoon and one at about 10:30 pm. The latter one is easily remedied right? Just go to bed you say? Nope, not me.... I push through the darned thing. MOST of the time at least... last night I actually succumbed to it and ooooooo it felt so good to sleep that long. Somehow most of the time I talk my self out of it cause I have things I want to do. But whenever I do go to bed "early" I'm really glad I did. :)

3. Window Wells. Yup, you got it. I'm WAY paranoid about window wells. I don't want my kids ANYWHERE near the darned things. They scare the CRAP out of me. Ask Tandee, she's seen "Paranoid Mom" make her appearances...

Kids steps within 2 feet of window well
Me: GET AWAY FROM THE WINDOW WELL!!!!
Kid looks at me like I'm insane
Me: YOU'RE GOING TO FALL IN AND BREAK YOU NECK!!!!
Kid slowly backs away because some strange freaking out woman has replaced mom
Me: Away from the window well, that's right.... THANK YOU!

I know, the likelihood of them falling in is probably not very high, but every time they get near one I have visions of them tripping and flying into the window well head first.... GAH!

4. I LOVE to sleep in but as soon as I'm up I HAVE to shower... I hate feeling grungy in the morning and a shower is the best thing. I cannot hang out in my PJ's for over 15 min without feeling "icky". Now in the evening? That's different, love hanging out in my PJ's then :)

5. Now, I don't know if this one is normal or not... I go through funky social stages. for a few months I'm outgoing and want to do EVERYTHING and be everywhere socially and then BAM all of the sudden I'm hermit women. I just want to stay home and read... all the time... like nonstop. Does anyone else do that???

6. Oh, here is the last one... man those are kinda hard to come up with. When I'm reading if you want my attention you almost have to take my book away from me. You can scream and yell, but believe you me... it probably won't make a difference. I'm THAT good at tuning EVERYTHING out when reading. Jer says to get my attention he almost has to "beat me".


I tag Kar, Andrea, and Arin... have fun!
