200th Post part one and a Winner!

the response to our ASK ME!! post to help us celebrate our 200th post was awesome and a little overwhelming...i was shocked that y'all asked 143 questions...CRAAAAAZY! anyway we have been working on getting them all answered and are going to have to make it a weekly segment for a little while (i know, calm down i can already sense your utter excitement). Today we are answering the 16 questions that SuperCoolMom asked. i big ready puffy heart SuperCoolMom, have you checked out her blog yet?

SuperCoolMom asked:

1. Share the story of your romance
Paul tells it like this…and he is close enough to correct that I will give you his version, mostly cuz he thinks he is funny and well, I agree. Girl emails boy, boy sees girls profile thinks she is hot and thinks there must be a mistake. Boy emails back. Girl emails again gives boy phone number after a few emails are shared. Boy calls girl, gets girl's voice mail many times. Boy has torrid love affair with girl’s voice mail for several weeks. Boy and girl finally meet, have a great time. Girl makes boy dinner and wins him over with her amazing culinary skills and sparkling green eyes. Boy and girl date for a while. Girl dumps boy (it' wasn't REALLY a dumping). Boy heartbroken. But boy and girl remain friends. Girl dates a few other boys, none of them seem “quite right" to girl. Girl prays about marriage proposal from other boy. Girl hears BOY’S name loud and clear. The song "Can't fight this feeling" by REO Speedwagon, plays over and over in her head. Girl finally comes to her senses and tells boy, “I am suppose to marry YOU!.” Boy says, “it’s about time you figured that out”. Boy and girl get married and live happily ever after.

2. What’s your favorite self-indulgence?
Spa days…pedi, mani,, facial, massage…lunch with girlfriends shopping…ahhhh so good. But I haven’t had a self-indulgence for a little over 3 yrs now…boo!

3. Most embarrassing moment?
Rocky 5, packed theater, opening night. Second row seats. Climbed over first row to go get treats, came back and had hands full climbing back over seat, slipped dumped coke and popcorn all over self and everyone one in 1st and 2nd rows…I was a teenager…it still pains me to this very day.

4. Mamarazzi’s first kiss: who? What? When? Where? Etc.
REAL kiss?? Spin the bottle. 1987 his name is Reggie, he was Mr. Gilroy 1988 for body building. He was orange but I didn’t care. His kiss made my stomach do that flip floppy thing…it was AWESOME!!

5. Where’d you learn your cute hair skillz?
I am not sure. Jordan grows her hair really long every year and then cuts 12 inches to donate to Locks of Love in the summer. When her hair is REALLY long it gets tangled easily. So I just started thinking of different ways to do it…and people started stopping me asking how I did her hair. So we kept coming up with new styles…truth is we BOTH love the attention…tee hee.

6. What is your favorite escape?
I love going to the beach. I would love a week at a house on the beach so I could spend my days napping in the sun, reading, and splashing in the ocean.

7. Tell about a childhood pet
I only had one pet growing up. She was a beagle named Foxy Lady. We only had her for a little while, long enough to have pictures taken with her, and have her clean a box of spilled cheerios off of the kitchen floor. I really don’t remember her, just that we once had a puppy and my mom was allergic to her and she went away (the puppy not my mom).

me and Foxy Lady

8. When I was little I had a crush on Jimmy because my sis took Donny. She got to be Ginger and I was MaryAnn. She was Marsha and made me be Jan. but I realllllly wanted to be Samantha. Who did you want to be? Who did you have a crush on?
Lame I know but I wanted to be this lady from church. Her name was Diane T. and she was beautiful, like Marie Osmond, but fancier. She always wore totally-matched-out-put-together-with-perfection-and-style outfits shoes, dress, stockings and accessories... she was awesome. I had a huge crush on David Cassidy. My sister and I always fought over who was going to marry who when The Monkeys came on…"I call Davey Jones”.

9. What do you want to learn next?
I would love to learn to sew…I have several home projects I would like to do that sewing would be helpful to know.

10. Tell us about your collection. Each of you please.
Mamarazzi collects: necklaces and unique perfume bottles
Big Daddy collects: Oakley sunglasses and confiscated items that inmates make, like weapons and lighters and such (they are super crafty…its impressive stuff)
J collects: horses, webkins and clip-on earrings

11. What is your latest obsession?
Hmmmm, right now I am working out the kinks to my latest business venture. So I am obsessing about ways to market myself and get things rolling.

Its called “Pink!...parties for Girls”. i am almost done with my blog for it...i will show you once i have it all figured out.

12. What magazines do you subscribe to?
Girl’s Life, Ensign, The New Era, The Friend and Family Fun

13. Where would you build your fantasy vacation home?
Maui…no doubt!!

14. Describe your worst date ever.
I was in my late 20’s my co worker set me up with a guy on a blind date. I agreed to meet him at a restaurant. We were enjoying our dinner when all of the sudden I look down and see his “friend”. I look at him and say, “not impressed”. He laughs and puts it away. I remain calm and a few minutes later excuse myself to the bathroom. I end up going into the kitchen and ask if I could exit there after explaining my situation, they let me. I could see him through the window as I drove away. He called a few more times, sent flowers to my work and was all around creepy. My friends husband had a “talk” with him and I never heard from him again.

15. Late night snack choice?
Cereal….always cereal.

16. Store you can’t live without?
TARGET!! I am pretty sure I would die.

if you made it this far and read the whole thing i am super impressed. let me know so i can give you a gold star!

oh i need to announce the winner...i had to do it on random.org. since the response was soooo overwhelming. i had never used their system before and it was a lot of fun. ANYWAY since y'all kind of came and went with questions i composed them all in word and categorized them by blogger and numbered them 1-143. THEN i put the numbers in and random.org gave me 106 for the winner...so the person who asked the 106th question (as it appeared in my word doc) is Leslie from Barefooted Bandits...YAY, email me your snail mail so i can send your gift card to Target!!
