Re: Random Poll

  •   1. How long did you know/date your DH before getting married? We'd been dating for two years and two days. 2. What is your favorite "naughty" food indulgence? Toss up between Pepsi and choclate ice cream. 3. What was the last movie you watched, and what did you think of it? Iron Man 2, which was good but predictable. 4. What's your biggest pet peeve? Right now my husbands lack of initiative. I try to be nice and ask him to do things in his own time frame, but things I asked for him to do 4 months ago, still haven't been done, and won't get done until I either nag him into on the spot, or do them myself.

    5. Do you have a particular store you buy  most of your clothes at, or is it random? Here lately its been Kohls, but it tends to be pretty random.

    Happy Hump Day!

    1. How long did you know/date your DH before getting married? We dated for 3 years and 5 months before getting engaged and were engaged for 1 year and 3 months before we got married.  So a total of 4 years and 8 months. 2. What is your favorite "naughty" food indulgence? well, I have so many food allergies etc. that my naughty foods all involve things that make me really sick. I recently made a homemade GF peach cobbler that was to die for. Before I found out what was making me sick, I was a sucker for cookie dough ice cream3. What was the last movie you watched, and what did you think of it? um, I watched Slumdog Millionaire when my mom was here because she had never seen it. I own it, so I obviously really like it, but I still think the book was 10x better. 4. What's your biggest pet peeve? incorrect grammar when speaking. I had to stop correcting my H because he uses double negatives, and ends his sentences with prepositions all.the.time.

    5. Do you have a particular store you buy  most of your clothes at, or is it random? Platos Closet. I don't have a full time job, so I shop at second hand stores a lot. I also feel like I'm sorta helping the earth because it's the second leg of the RRR triangle 'Reuse'. 

  • 1. How long did you know/date your DH before getting married? we knew each other about 9.5 years before we got married, but we were together almost 7 years before getting married. 2. What is your favorite "naughty" food indulgence? chalupa or gordita supremes from taco bell, or ice cream sundaes with lots of hot fudge and whipped cream 3. What was the last movie you watched, and what did you think of it? hmmm. it was probably something on tv...i dont really remember. 4. What's your biggest pet peeve? that people don't know how to drive. ughhh seriously. i'm getting heated thinking about it. If it says no right on red, its not there to be annoying. theres a reason for it. See how I almost just slammed into you because I had a green light, but you decided to turn right on red? yeah, you suck. ohh and just because you wave your hand at me the whole time you're cutting me off, doesn't mean its ok to do it. the fact that you're waving shows that you are aware of it, and that it was intentional you bastard. ughh. sorry.

    5. Do you have a particular store you buy  most of your clothes at, or is it random? 

    forever 21 because they're cheap and cute. or target because they're cheap and cute. although i need to start buying better pieces that will last longer.

  •   1. How long did you know/date your DH before getting married? At the time of the wedding we had known each other for 10 1/2 years and had been together for about 4 1/2 years. 2. What is your favorite "naughty" food indulgence? Cheese fries! mmmmm 3. What was the last movie you watched, and what did you think of it? The Princess and the Frog. I thought it was cute... it made me laugh.  4. What's your biggest pet peeve? People who do not respect a cyclist's right to the road. H was run off the road yesterday by someone driving a pick up truck- the guy then got out of his truck and slammed H's bike on the street twice! H wrote down his license plate # and we called the cops and filled a crimal charge against the guy. Some people truly amaze me!

    5. Do you have a particular store you buy  most of your clothes at, or is it random? 

    Generally JC Penny's, Kohl's, Target and Marshall's.

  • 1. How long did you know/date your DH before getting married?  We were together 2 and a half years before we got engaged, then another year and half after so...  four years.2. What is your favorite "naughty" food indulgence?  Chocolate cake or late night Taco Bell (have you tried the bacon club chalupa?  It's amazing.)3. What was the last movie you watched, and what did you think of it?  Grown-Ups.  We laughed the entire time, everyone in the theatre was in stitches!  Hilarious! 4. What's your biggest pet peeve?  I have too many to narrow it down to one.  People who use the shoulder of the road as a turn lane gets to me.  I hope they all fall in the ditches next to them and get stuck.

    5. Do you have a particular store you buy  most of your clothes at, or is it random?  I don't know anymore.  It used to be American Eagle before we got married but DH thinks I should dress "nicer" now that we're married.  I agree, I guess.  Of the last four things I got, two came from Banana Republic, but they're both super casual.

    1. How long did you know/date your DH before getting married? We got married 4 days after our 4th anniversary and we met a year and a half before dating...so 5 1/2 years?
    2. What is your favorite "naughty" food indulgence? Too many to name!  Probably a Whopper from BK.
    3. What was the last movie you watched, and what did you think of it? We saw Grown Ups in the theater...it was just ok.
    4. What's your biggest pet peeve? Again, too many to name!  I think people that think they are more important than they are.  Like, they're constantly updating their facebook status with the most self-absorbed nonsense, thinking people actually give a crap.  Or they?re constantly complaining about how hard their job/life/bill paying is SO MUCH HARDER than yours, etc.  OH MY GOD, JUST SHUT UP.

    5. Do you have a particular store you buy  most of your clothes at, or is it random? Hmmm, probably Target.  I've been shopping a lot at Kohl's and would LOVE to be able to shop more at Banana Republic, but it's just not in the budget right now.

    Eeek! OMG I would flip the F out on someone if they did that to me! I ride my bike to school on a busy road all the time and if I was ever treated like that, they would be buying me a new bike! I hope your H is okay and that a$$hole that ran him off the road gets what he deserves.

    OMG! I hope your DH is ok! DH bikes A LOT, and usually goes on busy roads and whatnot when he does his 20+ milers, and it really scares me. People don't udnerstand that bikers are supposed to be just like cars. ughh. people suck.

    1.  You didn't like Grown-Ups?!

    2.  Your answer to #4 gave me deja vu, weird. 

    3.  We can't afford Banana Republic, I only shop their sale racks at the back of the store and I never buy anything over $20.  But someday!

  • Oh my gosh, Nor, that's crazy!! On the other hand, I know so many responsible cyclists that when Sean and I were driving home on Sunday, we almost got in an accident in a roundabout because 2 cyclists were going the wrong way around a roundabout/rotary. What part of 1 way don't people understand?? :(

    1. How long did you know/date your DH before getting married? We met 9 years ago this summer, and our 8 year anniversary is in October. When we got married we'd been together just over 7 years.

    2. What is your favorite "naughty" food indulgence? I really just love food, but put a pizza and a bottle of wine in front of me and I can do some serious damage.

    3. What was the last movie you watched, and what did you think of it? On the plane home from our connection in Germany we had little personal tv screens, so I watched Valentine's Day (I liked it - didn't expect to), Date Night (LOVED), The Bounty Hunter (TERRIBLE - stopped after 10 minutes), and How to Train Your Dragon (LOVED).

    4. What's your biggest pet peeve? Bad drivers and stepford wives, which unfortunately, there are a lot of both around here.

    5. Do you have a particular store you buy  most of your clothes at, or is it random? Used to shop Ann Taylor Loft all the time, but now mostly Target and Kohls and Marshalls (lots of clearance), trying to be more frugal.

     

  • Guess I shoulda answered this earlier lol1. How long did you know/date your DH before getting married?  We married 3 years after we started dating...and we had our first date the first day we met so 3 years.2. What is your favorite "naughty" food indulgence?  Any type of baked good...too much to narrow down.  I'm a huge baker and love to eat any type of cake, cookie, pastry....they're my downfall!3. What was the last movie you watched, and what did you think of it?  H and I took my brother to go see The Last Airbender.  it was pretty good.  I remember watching the cartoons with my brother every once in a while.4. What's your biggest pet peeve?  Too many to name!  But as a college teacher I have to say one of my BIGGEST pet peeves is students who don't do their work, then fail, then try to blame it on me.  I'm sorry if you don't do you work, how to you expect to pass.  You may have the greatest photography/graphic design ever but if I can't see it I can't grade it.  You're an adult and should be responsible for yourself and your work and therefore, your grade.  Sorry rant over lol.5. Do you have a particular store you buy  most of your clothes at, or is it random? It's kinda random, but I like to shop at Dillards and sometimes Macys. No matter where I go though I always shop sale racks!

    1. I didn't dislike it - I guess I just expected it to be funnier.  I felt like there were a lot of big pauses between jokes, and it kind of got to me.  I don't know if that's bad editing or people were supposed to be laughing more, but it was just ok.  H LOVED it, though.

    2. Deja vu in like I've said it before and now me repeating the same crap all the time is going to be your pet peeve? Or just good old fashioned, creepy ass deja vu?

    3. Someday indeed!  Their clothes are really good quality, so I don't feel as bad splurging there...but I love so many things that they have that I can't justify right now. I should tell H to go back to his overnight job so I can buy clothes!  Wink

    It was definitely dejava like good old fashioned, creepy deja vu.  I was thinking to myself, "Did I dream that I read this last night?  Creepy."
