Re: POLL!
I know! I need some entertainment!
1. Did you do the "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" thing at your wedding? Sort of. I had something for each one, but the "something blue" was my garter, which I forgot to wear.
2. Are you superstitious? Like having an unlucky number, think walking under a later will bring you bad luck, black cats are bad luck, etc. I've never really been superstitious.
3. What was your favorite class you took in college or high school? (Fun electives, not history, science, math, or english classes. Unless one of those classes really was your favorite.) In high school, I really loved both European History and my French classes. In college, my favorite class was probably a Francophone Literature class where we studied literature from Africa that was written in French. My favorite electives in college were actually my P.E. classes, which is weird because I always hated P.E. in school, but I took yoga and aikido and really loved them both.
4. When's the last time you had a massage? Too long ago! I think it was probably about a year and a half ago.
5. What's your favorite thing (physical feature) about DH? I can't decide between smile and stomach.
6. What's your favorite non-physical thing about DH? Again, I can't pick just one. Either his love of learning or the fact that he is such a great dad.
1. Did you do the "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" thing at your wedding? No, I was so busy and overwhelmed I totally forgot. But I kind of wish I would have done it.
2. Are you superstitious? Like having an unlucky number, think walking under a ladder will bring you bad luck, black cats are bad luck, etc. Nope
3. What was your favorite class you took in college or high school? (Fun electives, not history, science, math, or english classes. Unless one of those classes really was your favorite.) I really loved Reading for Pleasure in high school. I took it twice. The teacher was amazing, she was so sweet and compassionate about reading. It was awesome to be able to read anything you wanted during a whole class time everyday. It really opened my eyes to how much I enjoy reading. I also really enjoyed Band and French.
4. When's the last time you had a massage? For my birthday last March. But DH and I just bought the www.livingsocial.com deal for an hour massage for $32 at a place off Memorial. Hopefully we'll get to use them soon!
5. What's your favorite thing (physical feature) about DH? His calves. And arms.
6. What's your favorite non-physical thing about DH? He's always wanting to help people.

5. What's your favorite thing (physical feature) about DH? His hands. I have a thing about hands. I don't like to hold hands, but I think they are very telling. H is a violinist and is very nimble.
6. What's your favorite non-physical thing about DH? His mind. His intelligence astounds me most days, but he is made human again with his severe ADHD. It's kind of this coexistence of two people up there.
1. Did you do the "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" thing at your wedding? yes, I had my great grandmother's ring, a bracelet borrowed from my step mom and the sash on my dress was blue. My aunt also taped a penny in my shoe.

3. What was your favorite class you took in college or high school? (Fun electives, not history, science, math, or english classes. Unless one of those classes really was your favorite.) In high school I enjoyed home-ec and single survival because we got to cook in both classes. In college I liked Dairy Cattle Science and Ag Marketing.

1. Did you do the "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" thing at your wedding? We just did a JOP, but I wore everything but something blue. Something new was my dress; something old was a necklace my mom let me wear; and something borrowed was my earrings, I think.
2. Are you superstitious? Like having an unlucky number, think walking under a ladder will bring you bad luck, black cats are bad luck, etc. I'm only really superstitious when it comes to sports. I don't wash my basketball jerseys until season's over [I always wear a shirt under them, so no big]. This year, I wore the same exact outfit to all but two OSU games [including the away ones]. Don't know what it is. I also have this thing with even numbers - not a fan of odd numbers. They're just weird to me.
3. What was your favorite class you took in college or high school? (Fun electives, not history, science, math, or english classes. Unless one of those classes really was your favorite.) Fave class in high school was my AP English classes. I had the most awesome teacher, we played Scrabble every Friday, and she always made us toffee at Christmas. My fave college class was American Colonial History. I'm a huge history buff when it comes to the colonial period of our dear country, and that class was so.much.fun. I'm a dork.
4. When's the last time you had a massage? I've never had a professional massage - ever. I'm getting one for my 25th birthday in March though - yay!
5. What's your favorite thing (physical feature) about DH? His arms. And when he's in his dress uniform...good gracious.
6. What's your favorite non-physical thing about DH? He actually listens to me when I want to talk about something. He'd rather listen than talk...which makes me feel like an AW when I talk to him, but he's just an awesome listener.
1. Did you do the "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" thing at your wedding? I think so? I remember trying to meet all those requirements, but I don't remember if I succeeded. Hmm.
2. Are you superstitious? Nope.
3. What was your favorite class you took in college or high school? AP English, junior and senior year. LOVED my teachers and the courses. Fitting that I now teach secondary English. In college I was in the honors program at OU, and took two courses through that program. One was 20th century Amer culture, and the other was an Amer Lit and Society course. They were AMAZING.
4. When's the last time you had a massage? Last week. I get them every 2-3 weeks because it helps manage my chronic pain condition.
5. What's your favorite thing (physical feature) about DH? His eyes. Gosh I hope our children get his gorgeous eyes! Mine are so boring and brown.
6. What's your favorite non-physical thing about DH? Complete selflessness.
1. Did you do the "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" thing at your wedding? yes, I had my Grandmothers pearls in my garter (something old), my shoes and dress were new, I borrwed my mom's pearls, and my garter was blue
2. Are you superstitious? Like having an unlucky number, think walking under a ladder will bring you bad luck, black cats are bad luck, etc. yes, to a fault
3. What was your favorite class you took in college or high school? (Fun electives, not history, science, math, or english classes. Unless one of those classes really was your favorite.) I took a psycology class that was called something like psychology of the Twilight Zone. It was so much fun!

2. Are you superstitious? Like having an unlucky number, think walking under a ladder will bring you bad luck, black cats are bad luck, etc. Not really
3. What was your favorite class you took in college or high school? (Fun electives, not history, science, math, or english classes. Unless one of those classes really was your favorite.) I took and Intercultural Communication class last spring and am taking Exploring Multiculturalism this semester. I really like the class so far and liked the previous class.

5. What's your favorite thing (physical feature) about DH? His eyes, arms, and calves.
