I've been tagged

my friend nancy has tagged me for 7 random things. since i was so busy this weekend i am just getting to them now!

1. i love popcorn. it doesn't matter what kind- kettle corn, plain, butter.. but my favorite is homemade fresh popped with a smidgen of butter & a ton of fresh parmesan & herbs. it is to die for!

2. my husband is a former rock star- not really about me, except for the fact that i was his biggest groupie by default. i actually broke up with him while he was in carson city on tour...

3. i love being smart. i love learning things, but i equally (or maybe more) love knowing things. conversely i hate, hate, hate being wrong. not because i want to be right all the time, but because i feel like i have let someone down when i am wrong.

4. i used to be a gymnast. i stopped before the competition level started because i didn't like the pressure. at 12 i thought it was too much. plus- although i am short & strong, i am far too naturally curvy to really have made it. i was pretty darn good at the uneven bars though...

5. after almost 15 years (yikes!) of dying my hair i have stopped & i am now seeing many random grays pop up. and i will let them go because i want to be okay with it. even though i always had this notion that gray hair started with your first kid- due to my mom's antecdotes. plus i think i will look hot with a gray streak because of my baby face. i really do need to shut up about seeing a new gray hair every other day though.

6. i miss my sister terribly every day that we don't talk. i wish that she could live closer because every time we hang out all the crap in life just doesn't matter. but i do hope she gains some weight & starts getting better soon.

7. i go for my annual pap tomorrow & more importantly to start the IF testing process. i am desperately wishing that they do a pregnancy test & tell me that i don't need any testing because i'm already pregnant with a christmas miracle. but i am realistic & am trying to just hope to get some answers & a fresh new hope for the new year. oh- and my period for christmas... yay.


I don't really know who i could tag that hasn't already done this. if you are reading this & haven't yet- consider this your tag!


and i really am hoping that they give me a test tomorrow even though i think i am probably only going to be 10dpo. i am too chicken to test that early myself & didn't do any tracking this month at all. this has helped a lot woth the symptoms & anxiety- but i don't really know when i will be late. we are going to the in-laws on saturday & i guess if i haven't gotten my period by then i will test before we go. i only have one test left & really don't want to buy another at the in-laws house.

Good luck at the dr office tomorrow- hope all goes well

Thanks- I'm sure it will be pretty uneventful with mostly talking & planning for tests. or a referral.

and while the rockstar past is very cool- at the time it is really not glamorous at all. he was a signed, touring musician, but 5 guys in a van across country for 3 months living on $5-10 a day is not the glamorous rock star life you envision! but he does have fantatic stories!

Ooh, try the Whirley Pop stovetop popcorn popper (online or William & Sonoma). It is awesome. I never have unpopped kernels left over and you can use whatever kind of oil you prefer (ex. olive, canola, etc). Plus, you can control the amount of oil and make home make kettle corn! YUM!!! My favorite 'sweet' treat.
