I made it to the end!
# 97 and 98 are totally me too! Thanks for coming by my blog.
Happy 100th post! I love reality TV too... although I'd never admit it. Oops, I guess I just did, didn't I?! ;)
cost accountant?
we are forever friends now...now that i know you too can roll standard costs forward and count inventory.
xoxoxo,
fellow dorkwad
I made it to 100 too! I'm absolutely obsessed with the 100 lists that appear on my favorite bloggers' sites, because I feel like it's a crash course about my favorite peeps!
And Moe Doodle???? Bwa haha!!!! So was that the REAL reason you took Punkin' to the concert? And if so, did you throw your panties at Mo? Because that would have been HYSTERICAl!
Happy 100th!!! I made it to then end!! I heart spicy ramen noodles!!
Um....are you and I related? 3/4 of this list could SO be written by myself.
That budget thing? *sigh* I think I need to learn how to do one of those.
You? ROCK!!
Alright, that cinches it. I'm a loyal reader forever now.
You rock!
Have you been on Facebook yet? Wowsa!
I made it! I read loyally, but comment only occaisionally. Mainly because I worry that my comments might be stupid.
I love ketchup on just about everything, too. Ever tried baked potatoes or eggs? Actually I used to eat it straight until I gave it up for Lent one year...now it just doesn't take THAT good anymore.
The Moe Doodle thing cracked me up, too. Cause the front page of the paper yesterday was about creepy people on kid tv & he was the #1 creep. HA.
Congrats on 100 posts!
I also hate being on a budget, grrr!
How did you add stumble it to your blog? And do you know how to add sk*rt? You seem much more computer literate than me.
Made it -- and it was worth the read!
Whoo. another brain fart. Damn baby depleting my brain cells. That was supposed to be ketchup doesn't TASTE that good anymore. Man. I often wonder if I can walk and chew gum & somehow am intrusted with small impressionable child. Geez.
I'll see if I can find a link to the Moe Doodle article. I actually happened to see it on the actual "paper" copy of the paper.
LOVED learning these new things about you!
I'm also a reality tv freak. I can't get enough of it.
Like you, I sometimes sit up until 2am so I can have some "alone" time as well.
Too much more to say...I'm not hi-jacking your post!
74. I would like to be bitten by Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer
75. I would like it to happen multiple times
ME TOO!!
I loved your list. I feel like I know you too. And we get along great!
Moe Doodle? HAHA!! Unfortunately, yes, that is creepy. We just started watching the Doodlebops this week. My husband says that The Wiggles bother him in a "I'm Chris Hansen from Dateline NBC" sort of way, and the Doodlebops bother him in a creepy clown sort of way. HAHA!
I read all the way to the end, and I enjoyed it. Good to know you better!
No where on the list does it say that you are um, vertically challenged!
LOL!!
Who's Moe Doodle? Never mind, it's probably better I don't know.
YOu should go look for friends from high school on facebook...and while you're at it, add me!
I think you probably have a cleaner house than I do. I can follow cross stitch patterns too but I could never design anything. I can't even do a french knot actually.
And ketchup? Yuck! It is meant for hotdogs and hamburgers ONLY. Though Saoirse puts ketchup and chicken salt on everything.
I related to several things on your list. My parents forced me to go to church 3+ times a week. (!)
I also really enjoy alone time, as well as time with friends.
I believe we were actually separated at birth!! Except my hair is straight and my eyes are brown and I despise reality TV. But other than that, we are KIN!!!!
You are very cool! I read the whole thing and loved it and found we are similar creatures in many ways... so, I would just like to say, I love you too! (In a non-stalkerish kind of way...)
You might be the funniest person I have ever met! Happy 100!
OMG, we have way WAY too much in common! This is a GREAT 100 list! I am so glad that you did it. I have been feeling the need to maybe to one myself, but haven't gotten off my arse to do it yet. Um, Moe Doodle. Totally hot. And boy, do I have a cross-stitch website for you! You are going to love this--if you have not been there already...
Your 100 things made me die laughing. Love it. Agree with so much of it. come paint walls with me. It's SO FREAKING SATISFYING, no?
(And dude, I think you can stop begging for comments! look at you go!)
Thanks for sharing; we have a lot in common :)
I need to re-evaluate my budget and shopping techniques and spending habits. Birthdays and the holidays are coming up soon, and I don't want to feel stressed out.
Hey Comment Junkie,
We have a couple things in common. I used to live in MA and like time alone too. Currently painting my walls. Still haven't decided whether it is a likable activity. Since I don't NOT like it yet, maybe that is another commonality.
From one bitch to another hi. I like purple as well. I enjoyed reading your list. I love to cross stitch so I had to post to a fellow stitcher. :)
Love it--and I can see how the comments can get addicting...the most I have on any post yet is 5, but I am new. I would cry tears of great joy to have 27 (now 28) comments on one post. But your blog rocks, so I guess it makes sense. Happy 100!
Happy 100!
I hate mayo and am stubborn, too!
i love these 100 things lists!
and perfectly ditto on numbers 9, 10, 20, 28, 31, 35, 49, 69, 77, 78, 81, 84, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 92, 93 & 97!
happy 100th post. that's awesome, everyone should do that, it would be easier to get to know them.. umm i wonder how many posts i have? should i count? hmmm
