About Me

It's hard for me to describe myself in any way other than a nerd, so I think using a blog questionnaire is a smart way to go. I can only use a sentence or two to describe my nerdiness and this way I can share so much more... nerdiness.


1. What is your dream job?
I would love to be a party planner. Not just a wedding planner, but a birthday party, first communion, baptism, shower, etc., planner. I have an abundance of ideas and it would be so exciting to spend someone else's money making it happen.  


2. What is your favourite fragrance for Winter?
I don't wear perfume at all, unless I have a hugely important event. I didn't even use any on my wedding day. Sometimes, I wear some to be sassy and when I do, it's usually Aquolina Pink Sugar. It makes me want to lick myself. Strange, but true. 

3. How do you take your tea/coffee?
I don't drink hot drinks usually. But if I have tea, it needs to have milk and about ten teaspoons of sugar. The abundance of sugar is why I don't drink it, because what's the point? A liter of Coca-cola has less sugar. For coffee, it has to be extra flavored, like caramel, iced and lots of sugar. Again, no point to it. Might as well drink liquid sugar. 

4. What is your most important beauty secret?
Sleep. If you don't get sleep, your looks suffer. Also, brush your teeth and floss after every meal. A bright smile can make any face glow. 

5. If you had an all expenses paid vacation, where would you go?
Rome. I really, no, I really want to go to Rome. My husband and I want to do the "Angels and Demons" tour, and of course, be present for the Papal Audience in Saint Peter's Square. Faith is important to us and we both find Vatican City interesting. I'd stay in a penthouse suite with a view of the Basilica. Hey, it's all expenses paid, right?

6. If a genie popped up in your lap right now and offered you three wishes, what would you ask for?
1. World peace
2. A never ending supply of money. 
3. A healthy child.

The first two are a little less likely to happen, but that third is most important to me. :)

7. If you could only have breakfast, lunch, dinner or desert foods for the rest of your life, what would you pick?
Dinner. Lunch food is eh. Breakfast usually makes me queasy and there isn't enough choice and dessert is just too heavy half the time. I want me some meat and potatoes. 

8. If you were Hello Kitty what color hair bow would you wear?
Brown. Ask me anything "...what color" and it would always be brown.

9. What is your biggest makeup pet peeve?
People who line their lips with a color far darker than their lipstick. I hate the rim around the lips look. 

10. If you could wear only one piece of jewelry for the rest of your life, what would it be?
I'm predictable. My wedding ring. 

11. What one talent do you wish you had?
Talent? Is running talent? I wish I was more athletic. 

12. Which product will you continue to purchase?
Toothpaste. 

13. If you could look into the future, would you? And what would you like to know?
No. I can't imagine knowing something that will happen and waiting for it to come true.

14. Who is your biggest celebrity crush? Include a picture!
This is hard. I love many a male celebrity. But I like him:

Mr. Reynolds - the former Mr. Scarlett Johannson.

Ryan Reynolds looks fab. Most of the pictures I found of him were shirtless, so I saved those for myself and share this one with you!

15. What made you start a blog?
All of the recent changes in my life prompted me to start this blog. I don't want to forget a thing, and if I can provide any type of hope or even consolation to anyone, I will. I love reading a blog and thinking "been there, done that" and I hope someone can read my blog and feel the same way. Also, I'm gaining lots of knowledge about Neonatal Intensive Care Units and I want to share it all.
