And Now...I would like to bore you with one of those endless and pointless surveys about my life in 2008...
Where did you begin 2008?At Jen & Tony's party .... throwing my engagement ring and screaming at Ross all night. Probably to be repeated this year, but now I have a wedding band to add to the damage...Ross has been practicing his stealth dodging maneuvers in anticipation.
What was your status by Valentine's Day?Hopelessly in love
Were you in school?No..but I eat sleep and breathe school through Tayler, who I am sure is so much more demanding in that department than any other kid in history..and if I have a stroke or die from an anneurism it is sure to stem from one of the many many "Homework incidents.."
Did you have to go to the hospital?No..thank god. *knock on wood* I spent more time with the doctors this year between me and Tayler, than the rest of my life time combined though.
Did you have any encounters with the police?I was pulled over because Ross didn't re-new his registration when he was supposed to..I drove right through a red light in front of a cop like an idiot because I was dazed out on cold medication...seriously people...stay off the roads when you're sick!..most of you just need to stay off the roads..period. * No tickets were issued..because I'm soooo cute.
Where did you go on vacation?Key West
What did you purchase that was over $500?A wedding
Did you know anybody who got married?This was the year of weddings...but most importantly ... Ross tied the knot...didn't think that would ever happen.
Did you know anybody who passed away?My grandpa
Did you move anywhere?Still happy at home
What sporting events did you attend?Ross dragged me to my first Bucs game...I hate football!
What concerts/shows did you go to?Lots o them..some of my favorites: Big Head Todd and the Monsters. Bruce Springsteen. The Cure. There are others, but they seem to be lost in a drunken haze...
Where do you live now?St. Pete, Florida
Describe your birthday:I can't even remember...I can promise you it involved alcohol..probably why I don't remember...I'm starting to see a very disconcerting pattern here...
What's the one thing you thought you would never do but did in 2008?Get Married
What has/have been your favorite moment?The best wedding EVER!!
What's something you learned about yourself?Married life surprisingly suits me!
Any new additions to your family?I have a new niece..and we got a new kitty this year
What music will you remember 2008 by?Anything by Ray Lamontagne...and Sweat Pea by Amos Lee
Who has been your best drinking buddy?Rossy...and Emelie comes a close second
Made new friends?I finally met the people who have all the dirt on Ross this year...I'm sercretly gathering black mail..I'm sure it will be useful leverage one day.
Favorite night out?The Key West Halloween Scavenger Hunt we put together...and everyone loved...and some can't remember.
What would you change about 2008?my career ... I'm pretty sure I was destined to sit at home and blog all day ... or sit at home and do nothing ... I'm trying to convince Ross to let me follow my destiny..he doesn't think I'm THAT cute!
Other than home, where did you spend most of your time?where I didn't want to be
Have any life changes in 2008?Ummm..married!

Do you have a New Year's resolution?I don't do resolutions...I have some good plans for next year though. They will involve a top hat..tap shoes..spandex..three candy canes..and a midget.
Did anything embarrassing happen?Not particularly ... That I can remember (what is that voice in my head saying..danger Will Robinson..Danger???).. have you seen Ross dance though..THAT's embarrassing..haha..kidding baby...love you!!
Buy anything new from eBay?I'm pretty sure I got our sand ceremony kit on eBay..but I bought so much crap on-line this year..who knows??
What was/were your favorite purchase(s)?Our big fat expensive wedding..that we are still paying for..and will keep paying for...for the rest of eternity...why didn't we take the money and run, again???
Get married or divorced?uhhhhh....
Get arrested?No thank you
Be honest - did you watch American Idol?Not a chance!

Start a new hobby?Tayler started playing soccer..I get to adopt her hobbies. I'm getting REALLY good at annoying Ross...I practice every night.
Been snowboarding?
ewww ...I went skiing last Christmas in Utah for the second time in my life (Note: I grew up in Utah..best snow on earth..HAAATE it!) .. You can probably add that experience to my most embarassing moment.
