Re: A little Friday poll
Weekend plans? I have a birthday party tonight, and (if my car is ready in time), I'm going to DFW for a baby shower tomorrow.
Song on the radio you love? Moves like Jagger. I picture Adam Levine's hot abs and "V" from the video every time I hear it. MMMMHHHM.
Song on the radio you hate? Someone Like You by Adel. Beautiful song, but it makes me all nostalgic for shiiit I don't need to be nostalgic about.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? New Orleans, specifically in the French Quarter.
Movie coming to theatres in the next year you're dying to see? Since HP is over (sadface), I'm not really planning on any movies in theaters. I do want to see Young Adult, though.
Best pizza in Oklahoma? Either the proscuitto pizza at Picasso (proscuitto, figs, blue cheese) or the veggie at Upper Crust (goat cheese and roasted veggies)
And finally... say something nice about another Nestie! 5thofJuly articulates her points very well. I'm jealous of this ability!
Weekend plans? Tonight will be a quiet night, tomorrrow we are going to the game, Sunday will be the usual (church, grocery shopping, laundry and cleaning)
Song on the radio you love? Baggage Claim by Miranda Lambert. I belt it out in the car when I'm by myself

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? English countryside would be great. I love all the adorable cottages.
Movie coming to theatres in the next year you're dying to see? Hunger Games. I loved the books and so far the movie stills I've seen looks great.
Best pizza in Oklahoma? I really like the pizza at Uppercrust.
And finally... say something nice about another Nestie! It's not just one Nestie, but this whole board. I love that there are disagreements between people but it stays civil and respectful.
That made in America song is obnoxious and offensive. Toby Keith typically is, but man that one rubs me the wrong way.
OOOH, you know what song I legitimately hate? Pumped Up Kicks. WTF, you're gonna shoot people if they don't run fast enough? Maybe I just don't get it.
Of to find Made in America now...

Movie coming to theatres in the next year you're dying to see? Hmm since we have a new baby I haven't been to the movies in forever so I don't even know what is coming out.
Best pizza in Oklahoma? I'm loving on Andolinis right now, plus side it's a block away from my house.
And finally... say something nice about another Nestie! I don't really know any of you that well to say something specific about anyone but you have all been very nice and welcoming to me.
It's catchy, but I couldn't understand the lyrics when I listened. So I went and looked them up a while back, and when I did, I was like
.
Weekend plans? Parents are coming to town. OU game with Mom tomorrow. Otherwise nothing crazy.
Song on the radio you love? Definitely "Moves Like Jagger." And though it makes me feel one step away from listening to Beiber, I kinda dig "Love You Like a Love Song" by his girlfriend.
Song on the radio you hate? Everything by The Band Perry. Ugh, awful.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Locally, would love to live in Dallas. Would love to spend time living in England or Scotland though. That would be way fun.

Best pizza in Oklahoma? Humble Pie in Edmond, but I can appreciate Upper Crust too. Yum.
And finally... say something nice about another Nestie! I love Puppy's discovery that she is in fact a dog person! Makes her even more awesome than she already was.my bookshelf!

Weekend plans? OSU football tomorrow...and that's it. This is the first weekend in two months I haven't had some sort of obligation [besides football]. It'll be weird to have time to myself.
Song on the radio you love? I don't really listen to the radio...I listen to sports radio all the time now.
Song on the radio you hate? I really don't like much music that's out right now...hence the sports radio. :P
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Probably Hawaii. Only way that'll happen is if we get stationed there though - cost of living too high otherwise.

Best pizza in Oklahoma? Hideaway. Nom nom nom.
And finally... say something nice about another Nestie! All of you are amazing. But if I have to say something nice about one - ginger, I super appreciate your book recs. They've been fantastic book recs so far.Selena Gomez - gah. I want to hate that song, but every time it comes on, I sing it. Yeesh.
Song on the radio you love? I am terrifically uncool and don't know what's on the radio either. I listen to my ipod through my car's tape deck for my commute. By the way, those of you that recommended that other way from N.OKC to Norman? FANTASTIC!! Thank you!
Song on the radio you hate? See above.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? I'm not sure yet.
Movie coming to theatres in the next year you're dying to see? I also have no idea what's coming to theaters. Aside from HGTV, I just have not been watching much.

Weekend plans? Tonight I plan to do nothing. Tomorrow I am baby sitting my neice and nephew for a few hours and taking them to my oldest nephews basketball game and then working my parents store so they can have some time off. Sunday we are scheduled to take family pictures and we will be celebrating my sister and BIL b-days.
Song on the radio you love? God Gave Me You by Blake Shelton (it really speaks to me right now for a lot of reasons)
Song on the radio you hate? The one that jumps out to me is the song by Thompson Square-Are you gonna kiss me not! GETS ON MY LAST NERVE!!

Weekend plans? Trying to stay in my pajamas all day today, though I may be swayed; Italian food with DH's friends tomorrow; kicking back on Sunday
Song on the radio you love?
Song on the radio you hate? I almost never listen to current songs on the radio. It's all NPR, classic rock, and classic country. I'm currently listening to Rod Stewart's Greatest Hits.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Some magical place where it's always 82 degrees outside
Movie coming to theatres in the next year you're dying to see? I think the J Edgar Hoover movie looks interesting. I also want to see the new Muppet Movie. Anyone willing to let me tag along with them and their kids so I don't look creepy at the theater?
Best pizza in Oklahoma? Humble Pie and The Wedge
And finally... say something nice about another Nestie! The handful of you who I've really bonded with (you know who you are!) have quite honestly made my transition to Oklahoma SO much more bearable. We don't get to get together as often as I would like, but I love knowing that there are other cool, smart, fun women out there who I can call on when I need some girl time!
Song on the radio you love? Just about anything by Adele.
Song on the radio you hate? I hate to sound like a pretentious douche, but I hate about 96% of the music on the radio. I'm an iPod/Pandora listener. Or NPR.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Of places I've been... Maine. Of all the places in the world... probably Ireland or England.
Movie coming to theatres in the next year you're dying to see? I know H and I saw a few previews that looked interesting when we saw Paranormal Activity 3 the other night, but I can't remember any of them now.
Best pizza in Oklahoma? Andolini's in Tulsa! I'm telling you, ladies, Tulsa has WAY better pizza than OKC. It's pretty sad.
And finally... say something nice about another Nestie! I'm super impressed with BlinkingLight's photog skills! The pics of jesseandbri's daughter were really well done.
We are planning to see the Muppet movie without our kid. I'm sure there will be more adults there alone then you think.
type <br*><br*> without the * for double spaces on the iphone.
Song on the radio you love? LMFAO Sexy & I know it. B & I blast this in the car, dance like we're idiots & H looks at us funny the whole time.
Song on the radio you hate? Adele's whiny ass. Someone like you in particular. I liked it at first & the more I hear it, the more annoyed I get.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Sadly, here. I have family & friends that I love & I'd rather not be without them. Although it would be fun to live in Pasadena with my sis for a while to experience all of the fun shopping & restaurants she's always raving about.
Movie coming to theatres in the next year you're dying to see? I have no idea.
Best pizza in Oklahoma? We're Hideaway fans. Luigiano's in Mustang has really good pizza too.
And finally... say something nice about another Nestie! I had lunch with drillerswife the other day & she makes me smile. She's kind, sarcastic & hilarious all at the same time, & that's really hard to do.
Weekend plans? Probably nothing tonight. We have a party tomorrow to go to and I'm taking some food, so I'll be cooking. I'm also going to try my hand at making some hair bows for my little cousin. Sunday, probably lounging around.
Song on the radio you love? I'm sexy and I know it. But that video is so f-ed up.
Song on the radio you hate? That Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley song
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Florida or South Texas
Movie coming to theatres in the next year you're dying to see? Happy Feet 2 and Jack and Jill looks funny, but I have a feeling they're just showing the funny parts in the trailer.
Best pizza in Oklahoma? Hideaway. I haven't tried Andolini's, but I guess I need to.
And finally... say something nice about another Nestie! Kaylee has to be the sweetest person I've never met.
I had to look this one up. The video is pretty interesting, a lot of celeb cameos. I'm probably going to have the song in my head for the rest of the day.
Aww thanks, you're making me blush!

I didn't know who some of those people were, but that doggone song stuck in my head the whole day after I heard it and now they play it all the time on CMT in the morning.

And finally... say something nice about another Nestie! I appreciate how fuzzylogic says what she's thinking without beating around the bush. Passive-agressive people drive me nuts!
