I need a kid.
I think if I had a kid it would some what be justified then but…..
Critical Mass
Ever heard of it?! I heard about this awesome event a few weeks ago from Suzanne and got super pissed that I completely forgot about it yesterday…ugh but it was cold and rainy so I’m not sure how up I would have been for it anyways. But next month I am SO THERE-well I really hope to be.
8 late….
Well OK I’m back (I guess)….more people than I thought missed me or kept asking “Why the break?” “What’s wrong?” “What happened?”…wow people-Relax. So instead of getting bugged I’ll just start blogging again. Happy!? Good…
38. I love baking but I’m not a big taste taster….
39. One year for Xmas I wanted a bunny soooo bad that was all I asked for, talked about, etc. for weeks. Xmas morning I woke up to a stuffed animal bunny. A STUFFED ANIMAL!? Thanks Santa.
40. My feet smell, and by smell I mean not good.
41. Applesauce, mayo and evaporated milk creep the hell out of me.
42. I am obsessed with the fourth of July and not for the reason some may think, I actually hate that reason. AND no not because I’m some crazed out America, I bleed red white and blue type. Can’t a girl just like summer, bbq’s and fireworks!?
43. People really post 100 things about them??….damn.
44. Mark and I have a magnet thingy of Mickey with a bunch of different expressions that you can move a square over and change-well we leave it on “lovestruck”. He probably just forgot it was there….

46. I think when the time is right and the feeling is right I’ll know what to do.
47. I’m a “fake” vegetarian (as people call it)..I do ok with chicken once in a while but red meat or anything of the sort looks good to only my gag reflects.
48. My newest Pandora station is titled “Jbro love”
49. Yes, “Jbro love” contains, Jonas Brothers, Hannah Montana, Hilary Duff, MILEY, and HSM…
50. I wish Micheal Scott was my boss.
51. I can get my resting heart rate down to about 30….Branecki and I tried it once with our heart rate monitors. I won.
52. I have the worst circulation known to (wo)man….my hands and feet are constant bricks of ice.
53. Actually most of my body is a brick of ice-I get goosebumps like a 13 year old gets acne.
54. My handwriting sucks. I know it’s because I write so fast, for no reason.
55. I have yet to find a Dierks Bentley song that I have not liked.
56. The thoughts of going back to school tickle me but I know I won’t do it…
57. The longer I am living in the city the longer I want to stay here instead of moving back to the burbs and “settling in”-why can’t we “settle in” where we are!?
58. After just recently losing my phone I’ve noticed I knew three phone numbers-parents, work and Meghan’s. NOT EVEN MARK’S! ha…
59. Never travled outside of the country, not even to Mexico.
60. I have yet to master the art of shaving my legs.

63. Perfect job would be a party planner and/or the person who gets to name OPI’s nail polishs
64. My favorite animal is a penguin.
65. I know of more “broken” marriages than good marriages and it makes me so upset and scares the crap out of me. People-do you know what VOWS are? You’re pathetic, why’d ya bother?!
66. I wish I did more things for just me than always thinking of others.
67. I could easily sleep for 24 hours if given the opportunity. Heck I might do that tonight.

77. I wake up at 4:22AM three (sometimes 4) times a week.
78. I wish I was a popular blogger, like well known.
79. I like my nerdy side.
80. I avoid confrontations at all costs, I know- not the best thing to do but it’s gotten me this far.
81. My back would win a boy scout badge for “best knots”.

Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( 2 so far )Sooooo yea Taylor is 5 now, it FINALLY felt like summer, I went to my first Chicago Cares volunteer project AND to my first Farmer’s Market..all this weekend. WOO. HOO. (I did however fail at going for a bike ride and getting to the beach..booo but that can be next weekend, baby steps Jen, baby steps)
TAYLOR!!
My niece, she’s turning 5 on Saturday. OH. MY. GOD. I can not believe it, I can remember for weeks driving back and forth to the hospital (she was premature) just to go visit her, oddly enough those were some of the best times I had with my sister. But my goodness how she’s grown, it’s been quite the 5 years, let me tell you! But back to Taylor….
She is amazing, if you’ve met her at all you know why..shes got some great baby blues, super laid back and so quick witted for such a small human being. She takes after me so much you’d swear she was mine, not to mention how cute she is (again, I trait of mine)…soooo Taylor- Happy 5th Birthday!!
I’m so bummed I have no newborn pictures of her but none the less a time line of the kid that all kids should be protocol-ed from. (seriously-no joke, they should be, I don’t want kids unless there is some written and signed guarantee they pop out like this one) ENJOY!
From the earliest I have….just over a year old here.
My 24th Bday dinner….. Christmas 2007….Summer of 2008, yes the jump rope is how I dragggggged her down the slip and slide (she is a wimp). No do not call child services, she told me too. Taylor’s first trip to Disney! Just this past December….
I’m watching you!
You can watch others too-here!
The good old days.
If only I knew now what I was told then. I can remember hundreds of times being told as a kid “do this…”, “don’t do that…”. I was pretty good at putting up fights let me tell you!
Take naps for example, man if only I would have wanted to take naps when I was a kid, maybe I wouldn’t be so tired now…ohhhhh how I wish I still had to take a 2:30 nap…
This being said I have walked into adulthood with a few “do’s and don’t’s” that have stayed with me-unfortunately I think some people still pathetically lack.
*Don’t chew with your mouth full. NO. MATTER. WHAT.
*Always use please and thank you.
*The truth always comes out.
*Always wear clean underwear 🙂
*No matter how you look at it (food/drink/or person)- too much of a good thing turns bad.
One thing I would like to counter with is the famous “your face is gonna stay like that” when making a funny face-HA, nice try Mom-WRONG.
Jen-1
Mom-145,146,326,355,684
Booooya.
What do you guys remember being told as a kid?
