4 Things… May 16, 2008

4 things all about me!

I’m always down to write about myself. Talking about myself, not so much. So, here is a short survey all about moi!

4 things I did 10 years ago: (1998 )

1. Graduated high school. With honors. Yep, that’s right, I was a smarty-pants.

2. Went to Mexico for the first time, which in turn required me to ride on an airplane for the first time. It was a great trip, I think…

3. Broke up with The World Worst Boyfriend. Wow, he was really craptastic! I’m happy to report that I have been in touch with him lately, and he has finally pulled his life together, which makes me happy.

4.  Ventured out into the real world, and lived on my own for the first time. Well, if you call having a kick ass roommate, and living in a dorm with 60 or so other people “alone.”

4 things I did 5 years ago: (2003)

1. Went to Fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada for the first time and fell in love. With the city, not a man.

2. Dated 3 men at the same time! I was newly single after leaving C’s dad, and was trying to date which was new to me. I actually successfully dated them all without the others knowing!

3. Got my heart broken for the first time. His name was Paul. It was a whirlwind love affair that forever changed my life. He’s now married (of course he is) and I, am still trying to date. Lovely…

4. Missed my son like crazy! Like I said, I had just left C’s dad and we split custody 50/50. Going from being with him every evening and weekend to only half of that and working full time was absolute hell! That must be why I kept myself busy dating 3 guys.

4 things I did yesterday:

1. Watched my son and his dad’s fiance’s son at their place so they could go to a concert. Yes, I watch her son on occasion. Matt and I have a great relationship (now that we are just friends) and I really like his fiance.

2. Played Rock Band at Matt’s with C. SO.MUCH.FUN!!!! If I had an extra $600 to blow on something, I would buy an Xbox 360 and Rock Band. C played guitar and I was the singer. It was the best time I have had in a while!

3. Watched P.S. I Love You. Wow….if you ever want to cry, there’s your movie. I just recently watched The Notebook for the first time. This movie blew it out of the water! Hilary Swank did an amazing job, as did most of the rest of the cast. Harry Conick Jr. kind of creeped me out though.

4. Spent the rest of the night after watching P.S. I Love You wishing that I could be married to Jeffrey Dean Morgan. And I would make him play guitar for me. And sing in an Irish accent. Hell, I’d make him use the accent all of the time. I wish he was still on Grey’s Anatomy. He was the hottest man on his death bed EVER!

4 shows I love to watch:

1. Grey’s Anatomy. Sometimes I’d really love to smack a couple of characters on that show, but over all it gives me the warm fuzzies.

2. Rock of Love! I and II. As happy as I am that Brett picked Ambre, I’d like it to not work out for them so there can be a Rock of Love III. I just can’t get enough of that aging rock star in a bandanna and eyeliner. It’s the skankiest dating show on tv and I miss it already.

3. Brothers and Sisters. I always end up crying during this show. I love it. It’s my Sunday night cry-fest. I’ll watch Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and bawl like a baby at the end of that show. Then cheer up a little while watching Desperate Housewives, then go back to crying again during Brothers and Sisters. It’s not just the fact that the show pulls on my heart strings…the story lines are great and have yet to disappoint. The acting is fantastic, and the dudes are super hot. Plus Sally Field is in it, who totally is rockin at her age.

4. The Soup. Joel McHale makes me laugh and lust all at the same time. Now, he’s not your typical hot guy, but his witty cynicism really does something to me. And he always brings up how vain Tyra Banks is which is good, good stuff!

So there we go! 4 categories of 4 snippets about me! You should do the same and let me know when you’ve posted it on your blog. What?!? You don’t have a blog? You totally should. It’s really fun, and I’d love to read it!
