I've been tagged! Thanks, Amber. Makes me feel cool : )

Quick 5 and List of 8

Quick 5:
1. What was I doing 10 years ago?
Throwing up. I was pregnant with Theron and didn't realize I had a ruptured appendix. I threw up every day for about 8 months.

2. What are 5 things on my to-do list today?
It's already night time so...
1. get the kids to bed.
2. catch up on laundry.
3. eat some of the cookies Viv and I made today.
4. read my scriptures (desperately trying to finish the Book of Mormon by the end of the year).
5. work on the kindergarten tours projects I signed up to run at the kids' school, which turns out to actually be a fairly huge job.

3. Snacks I enjoy: peanut m&ms, bruschetta, quesadillas, and corn chips with a sort of tacky cheese dip made with velvetta and rotel.

4. Places I've lived: WA, OR, AZ, UT, and back to WA.

5. Five things I'd do if I were a billionaire:
1. buy a Shelby Cobra
2. travel!
3. invest (doesn't everyone have to say that?)
4. pay off debt (that too?)
5. hire a staff, including a masseuse, secretary, and chef

A List of 8:
8 TV shows I love to watch:
1. 24
2. Lost
3. Arrested Development
4. The Office
5. Heroes
6. Grey's Anatomy
7. American Idol
8. House

8 favorite places I love to eat:
1. Tamarind Tree (Vietnamese place in International District)
2. Cafe Rio in Provo (I still dream about those fajita chicken burritos)
3. Outback Steakhouse (filet mignon, medium or medium rare with a baked potato and steamed veggies)
4. Icon Grill (comfort food at its best)
5. Red Mill (really yummy/greasy burgers)
6. El Sombrero in Walla Walla (Theron and I went there on our first date, and Theron ate most of my food plus all of his)
7. Romio's Pizza
8. McDonalds (sometimes you just need a nice flat cheeseburger that's been sitting in the warmer for a while).


8 things that happened yesterday:
1. cleaned half my bedroom
2. volunteered in the kids' school library (my secret dream job)
3. went to lunch with Theron and Viv -- a Monday tradition
4. had Family Home Evening
5. finished off the last of the Halloween candy -- thank goodness it's gone!
6. worked on plans for the Primary activity coming up in a couple of weeks
7. discovered that Netflix instant movies don't play on a mac :(
8. worked on Theron's online ad campaign, which I am now in charge of.

8 things I look forward to:
1. Christmas!!
2. and Thanksgiving.
3. getting out of debt. Student loans are so much more fun to borrow than to repay...
4. being 10 pounds thinner
5. getting a new car (in the distant future)
6. yard work in the Spring
7. apple cider and a crackling fire in the hearth. Maybe a little music.
8. my birthday, of course!

1. someone else for President
2. a fabulous wardrobe
3. a new flute
4. a day or two of complete silence
5. an herb garden
6. theater tickets
7. the next season of 24
8. someone else for President. (did I already say that?)

Thanks for the tag.
And by the way, you totally don't need to lose 10 pounds. You are fabulous. :)
