Thanks for doing this tag! How fun to get to know you better! ♥ Hugs!
It is fun getting to know you better, and you are right sprite and egg nog don't mix!
I hate Tom Petty, too. Just sayin.
You know, I love reading tags when everyone else does them. I just hate doing them.
These were both fun. :)
Those people that don't look at you while they are talking drive me nuts too. It's like they don't care about you or something. Or always looking for someone better to chat with. Great tags.
Excuse me? The best friend position is open for female? I thought it was already taken?
I'm torn between Twix and Whatchamacallit's too! And does anything mix with Egg Nog?
A degree in French? Tres Chic! (That's about the extent of my French and I don't even know if it is really French.)
Oh and I'm one of those people who sometimes won't look at you while talking. If you are talking to me I am usually pretty good about looking at you but I have a bad habit of looking elsewhere while I am talking.
Good tags- and a GREAT Anna QUindlen quote. Good stuff!
French Degree = Tres Chic!
Have you tried egg nog in your mashed potatoes? DON'T!!!!
I love the new button, charmaine did awesome. But i still like your button. Very minimilist chic.
Hmmm, my sisters were born in Logan Utah but raised in San Jose California. I wonder what that makes them? (I'm thinking it makes them kinda weird since the other six of us were born in San Jose.)
Love the handwriting sample. I think most of my 50/50's would be something vs. sleep.
We are SO much a like!! I love me a good Whatchmacallit!!
"people who pull out in front of me in their car and then drive under the speed limit"
Oh, c'mon! How can anyone not love that kind of behavior!? :)
That's so funny you said Sprite and eggnog, because I make this killer punch that is peppermint ice cream, Sprite, and eggnog. It is SOOOOOOO good! I'm making it on Saturday for my cookie swap.
this is going to be a great week!
the flannel sheets and flannel pj's line cracked me up. it's funny 'cause it's true!
These are great tags, ones I haven't seen before. Good to learn a little more. I'll add this info to the stalker file I keep on you. ;)
Your 5 pet peeves are amazing.
I was born in Tacoma too but then grew up in West Jordan, Utah. Was your dad an army guy also? I love your pet peeves also, especially the last one that drives me nuts to!
The PJ's and sheets made me laugh too:).
Love your pet peeves!! I have to drive the valley of the sun (phoenix, az) for my job and hate to pulled in front of. My 5 are always asking for something the minute i sit down (in fact the 3 year old is in my lap as I try to type this). And people that look away-I am right up there with you;) love your blog and I like your button for christmas-it is not ugly my blogging friend:)
Unfortunately, I am like So--I'm pretty good at looking at you while YOU talk, but the minute I start talking I find it very difficult to keep eye contact. I've tried to figure out why, and I'm not sure. It may be a confidence thing, or maybe a consentration thing--like how I can't talk on the phone with out walking. I can listen and stand still, but once I talk I HAVE to move.
Great post.
I loved it! Thanks for doing this so we could get to know you a little better. You've got great handwriting for right AND left!
Here's another Nog recipe. Michael's family has titled it THE NOG. It's egg nog, rootbeer and vanilla ice cream. This is enjoyed from Thanksgiving through New Years. I can't drink it. I don't like egg nog or rootbeer floats, so too bad for me:) Loved getting to know you better!
My best friend is my hubby too, my gal pal lives in another state and I hate that, I really want a real life girl friend that knows me as well as my hubby but that might be unrealistic.
thanks for doing my tag :)
I'm back from thanksgiving! will blog tomorrow
okay, you just made me feel like i could maybe do these two tags. i have been feeling inadequate in the tag dept. if fact, today the one posted, empty, cuz i hadn't gotten to it. so embarrassing. Cool stuff. thanks for sharing.
just had to let you know that today, if you give mom a moment, i CHOSE BLOGGING over a nap. am i crazy?

Ooh, I hate it when people bite their forks! And hair in the drain, sick! I've got a nasty story about that one if you ever want to hear it.
My favorite pårt of this post was your pet peeves and your handwriting. I love love getting to know more about you. So so fun. Love reading tags.
Nooooooooooo! My bloggy twin has gone off the deep end!
I LOVE Sprite and egg nog!
I love these tags. It's fun to get to know fellow bloggers. I can't imagine anyone putting Sprite and egg nog together. Ick (no offense to any lovers). I also love the quote. It's too true!
Soem nifty insights here. Meme's really are great for getting to know people better. =)
Woohoo, I'm so excited for tag week!
