I’ve been cleaning all day long and my apartment is finally starting to resemble a place I’d want to live in.
I have candles going, pumpkin bread baking and it smells delicious. I enjoyed a cupcake. I got my new North Face hoodie in the mail (which I LOVE!) I’ve got my windows open. Milla’s bathing on the balcony. Eddie’s curled up in Milla’s bed.
The day couldn’t get any better.
I have plans to go to the animal shelter to play with pups soon and then going for a nice jog. Why do we have to work? Why can’t my life be like this everyday?? Guess I’ll have to enjoy it while I can.
So, while today has been fantastic, I don’t have a lot to blog about. I saw this on Gracie’s blog the other day and thought it was fun. We all like learning about each other, right?
So, I found this old gem of a myspace survey.

I love that you mention Dexter. It, too, is one of my favorite shows
Fun! I worry about ceiling fans too by the way.
HOW FUN ! I love learning new things (and remembering stuff I knew) about people!
I’m so glad you’re enjoying your week!
I love fleece’s with the thumb holes like that. Nice! Sounds like you’re enjoying your staycation. You deserve it!
I almost posted a survey on my blog yesterday because I didn’t feel like blogging HA! I like getting to know peeps better and these are quick and easy ways to do just that. AND, I totally cried watching Teen Mom finale, too!
PS- I’m jonesin’ for that cupcake you posted! OMG, looks SO fa-reakin’ good with lots of icing- just the way I like it!
LOVE the new hoodie!
…. and the pizza pic! I miss NYC!
Sounds like such a fun day, and so relaxing
Adorable picture of Eddie- he sure squeezed himself in there- lol!!
And, I can’t believe you don’t like ORANGE- it’s my favorite color!! But, then again, I’m wondering if it’s because it’s Texas’ color?!?! Might I be right?
And, totally agree with you about olives- I HATE them too!
Keep enjoying your day! xoxo
You might be right. Plus, our other rival–Oklahoma State is orange and black!
ps—might it have been you who sent me cute OU earrings???
Yes ma’am
I hope you like them!
Totally random but we share the exact same birthday as well as a love for cute weiner dogs!
Sometimes, posts like this just get me in a good mood! dont know why. We have lots in common, and I thought you were way taller! Its cause you look like a supermodel!
I have a half sister (my mom was the one getting around) who is 15 years older than me!
And I think I am funny, but I dont tell jokes…..i have this magic power to make a funny joke sound lame just by attempting to say it.
Your birthday this year is going to be 12/11/10 — that’s awesome! And I’m totally with you on the ceiling fan scare. When they go so fast that they start shaking I get nervous it will fly off its socket and slicing me while I sleep. Could that actually happen? Hope not.
Love the pictures of you and your brothers
Ceiling fans scare the bjesus out of me!
Haha! That’s funny about ceiling fans. Ever since I saw final destination, I’ve been afraid of logging trucks– one of the logs might slide off and impale me! I’m also 5’4″!
Awesome post!! Yes Recorders count! You are so purty girl!
No orange, huh? Hum…is that orange in general or burnt orange specifically?
not JUST Texas—Oklahoma State is a reason too
Absolutely dispise olives!!!! Love Eddie in milla’s bed lol. glad you are having a great day. Enjoy it while it lasts. My favorite color is yellow!!!! We are alot alike:)
aww I loved learning more about you lisa!! haha thast funny about the sneezing when you are hungry…when I’m really hungry im just a bitch
I have to sleep with a fan on-i need the noise, I cannot fall asleep in silence, and I also sleep with about 7 pillows no lie.
im a rare jewlery wearer too! i acutally think it can get so annoying esp when I workout, I wear two rings, and a watch and pearl earings that haven’t been taken out in about 3 years. thats it!
A good Sooner always hates orange!
I also would have thought you were taller.
Amen!!
Oh man-I just spent an entire paragraph in my blog talking about how much I loved Olives!
definitely entertaining to read your survey!!
So fun! I actually am taking the survey idea from Gracie for my morning post tomorrow.
I always loved reading these cheesy lists then and now, I just love learning about people. I’m trying to plan a trip back to see CO friends in January!!!! Just saying, we should keep that in mind.
Love this! I kind of want to take it now!! I think this could be my post tomorrow haha. So funny about ceiling fans! I could see how they would scare people though! I just think they will fall out of the ceiling!
Z – I believe in the Zodiac when I’m looking for the Universe to give me A Sign. Would I tattoo it on my body? Absolutely not!
We share the same birthday 12.11 . . . except I’m quite a few years older than you. But still!!! I’ve lived in Oklahoma City and Edmond for several years, but was born, raised and graduated high school in Guthrie, OK. Really enjoy your blog! You’re such a cutie!
According to my mother, I was terrified of ceiling fans when I was a little kid. We would go into a restaurant and I’d cry until they turned them off.
I have been spending my fall break cleaning too – it feels sooo good to get it all organized and neat!
Also, love the survey! And hooray for coming to Breck for boarding – yay colorado!
candles burning and pumpkin bread baking… perfect!
I loved this post!
I know how you feel about getting new stuff! It just makes your day! and makes you feel all special and with a relaxing day all the better!
I totally want to copy a post like this and fill it out!
I also think you look taller than 5’4! I am 5’3 and 3/4 so we are like the same!
Oooh this is so cool!
I love the addition of pictures!
I also would have thought you were taller than 5’4″, you look taller than that! Love this post though, and your new hoody.
Eddie is SO cute! curled up like that… precious! What do you feed your pups?? I’m having a mini doggy crisis
Eddie is adorable in milla’s too tiny for him bed!
Love your hoodie too – it’s starting to get chilly up here, about time to procure myself a new jacket soon
I adore this, do you mind if I steal it? Haha
You sneeze when you get hungry?! Haha that’s badass! And the mango thing – totally agree.
In honor of S for my name
Are you a social person? I’m apparently an extrovert, but sometimes I just want people to go away!
What states have you lived in? Wisonsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Florida, and California
What’s your favorite season? Fall!
I love your North Face hoodie. I have a North Face fleece jacket and I love it. It’s so warm and comfy.
Wow – that’s a lot of abc’s my friend! I think my favorite was do you want this to be over? And have you ever wanted to kill someone? hahaha
SO FUN that you’re going to breck in January. I think we’re going there in December – it’s not official yet but I sure hope so – LOVE SKIING. If we go in January we’ll TOTALLY have to do a blogger meet-up on the mountain – fabulous.
Sounds like you had a nice day! I love the smell of fresh baked goods and having my candles lit. Unfortunately, I fell asleep on the couch last night….with a couple of candles still burning. My mother would have KILLED me!
Wake boarding looks like fun! My boyfriend just recently got me lessons for kite boarding. Have you ever tried that? At one point last weekend I literally had my eyes shut and kept telling myself that the instructor would be over to save me soon (my kite was a lil out of control and pulling me further than I wanted it to). I was scared to death, but I’ll definitely be out there again. Haha.
What a fun list. I love learning about bloggers, and what an easy format to follow.
I love how you wrote that eating is the easiest thing to do.
Allergies: Raw carrots, soy, and tree pollens. So annoying.
Best friend: My friend Elizabeth, who I’ve known since first grade, and we’re still the closest of friends.
Candy: Peanut M&Ms.
Oh, and I love your new North Face jacket.
Well let’s see – I’m 25, birthday is 6/22/85, I’m 5’8″, an only child and my worst fear is getting eaten alive by a shark. BTW – give me a holler when you come to CO. I live about 2.5 hours from Breckenridge sooo…blogger meetup?
Love the idea of this post—I will be doing this soon.
Yay for Sags! My birthday is the 13th and my dads is on the 11th-I knew there was a reason why I liked you! I have the same fear about ceiling fans as well
LOVED reading this and reading more about yoU! And I love that NF jacket and thumb holes WIN at life.
