8 Things About Me (tagged by Bethany)
At first I was just glad to be tagged and have something to blog about, since for some reason I haven't been taking many blog-worthy pictures lately. But as I answered the questions, it really made me think- what do I look forward to? And what do I wish for? And is there any chocolate in the house?
8 TV Shows I Watch
1. 30 Rock
2. Ugly Betty
3. Heroes
4. Fringe
5. The Office
6. Prison Break
7. Supernatural
8. My Friends Tigger and Pooh (this one gets watched every day.....we've seen all the episodes at least twice and Dylan has started requesting which one he wants to watch)
8 Favorite Restaurants
1. Chick-Fil-A
2. Red Robin
3. Okay, I'm seriously blanking on this....I know we eat out and I like food, but I really am having a hard time coming up with favorites. Especially around here.
4. Flying Biscuit (Atlanta)
5. UnQuinto (Japan)
6. That Chinese restaurant at the Grand Duo in Tachikawa (Japan)
7. Ingleside Village Pizza (if I ever make it back to Macon)
8. We obviously don't get out enough here in Dayton.
8 Things That Happened Today (actually, Yesterday)
1. Told Dylan to go back to sleep numerous times after 12:30am.
2. Realized I still don't have a voice and tried adding some apple cider vinegar to my tea with honey. It tasted good...but still no voice.
3. Washed my hair
4. Went to the Dayton Art Institute with Dylan and others in our playgroup to see their Kids Experiencenter. Realized it really wasn't meant for toddlers. Tried to have fun anyway.
5. Whispered to Dylan "no" many times as he tried to climb over the barrier to the jellybean and butterfly sculpture. Realized it's really hard to corral a toddler with just a whisper.
6. Whispered to Dylan to stop yelling "Hi" as loudly as he could as we were walking through the room of African Art. He evidently really liked the echo it made and thought I was hilarious when I was whispering to him to "stop".
7. I had to use Tina as my voice so that I could tell Denny we were still at the Art Institute eating lunch. Whispering through a cellphone doesn't work very well.
8. Had a cookie while finishing the book I was reading (The Baby Trail--a fine piece of chic-lit that will make you never have to go through fertility treatments).
8 Things I Look Forward To
1. Making Christmas crafts and baking with Dylan.
2. Seeing Dylan's face on Christmas morning.
3. Being done with breastfeeding.
4. Going on a real nighttime date with my husband and having someone else be able to put Dylan to bed. Gosh, to be able to go to a party together would be soooo nice.
5. Hanging out with Denny after Dylan goes to bed.
6. Getting my voice back.
7. Denny coming home (from work, from a trip, for lunch)
8. Having a house of our own one day (no more crappy apartments!)
8 Things I Wish For
1. A long and healthy life for all of us.
2. A trip to see my friends.
3. Dylan to be over his "mommy-only" phase
4. A personal grocery shopper *grin*
5. Motivation to clean the rest of my house (my kitchen looks great)
6. Clothes that wash themselves (and put themselves away)
7. Caffeine-free chai lattes at Starbucks (or anywhere for that matter....no one seems to have these)
8. Someone to invent guilt-free chocolate.
8 People I Tag
1. Jen C.
2. Jena
3. Sherry
