1. I love Friends. I mean sure, I love you guys, but when I say friends, I mean "I'll be there for you....when the rain starts to pour..." Are you singing along yet? I am the most obsessive Friends person on the face of the earth. I promise you I can beat anyone, I mean anyone, at Friends trivia. The best present Dallas has ever given me (and he gives some great gifts) was Valentine's 2005. He bought me the entire 10 season collection of Friends. Best money ever spent. Every night, literally, I fall asleep to Chandler, Monica, Phoebe, Ross, Joey or Rachel. Dallas acts like it drives him crazy, yet he still laughs at every episode (even if he has seen it 200 times.)
2. I can do impersonations. Dallas says my #1 is the Gecko from the Geico commercials. I can nail his accent to a tee. I've also got a mean New York accent. However, my personal favorite (I wore this one out when I was prego with Reese, just ask Marc & Mauri) is the Hoover High School Football Coach from Two-A-Days on MTV. He was a blast to impersonate. I really miss that show...
3. The coolest day of my life (I am excluding wedding & Reese's birth b/c they seem kinda obvious) was March 29. In one day, I found out I had made the Carolina Panthers cheerleading squad (Dallas got to tell me b/c I was on a plane to a pharma convention in phoenix when they announced it) and Dallas proposed to me that night. He had planned the proposal not knowing it would also be the day I would find out about the Topcats. It was, the absolute, most overwhelming life changing day. Along with the whole NFL thing, being in the tunnel in Bank of America Stadium right before we entered the field to cheer Monday Night Football in front of 70,000 fans was also beyond words.
4. I graduated college in 3 years. (okay, this one is boring, but I needed something)
5. I always planned on being a Laker Girl. I wrote it in all my friends yearbooks in middle school. Yes, I practiced routines til 1 in the morning. I was going to be a Laker Girl and news anchor. I still majored in that, but once I found out what they made that career went in the pooper. Does NFL count for my pro dance goal? Guess it will have too, since those days are over. I have found my dream, though. Being a photographer is really fulfilling to me. I just need more hours in the day.
6. This one might be weird. I could use this one for: I have plates in my right arm from tumbling in 10th grade. I had a compound fracture and my bone was sticking out of my arm, literally. Or, that I have also broken the other arm, I missed the fire pole in 1st grade and broke my arm and got a concussion (no laughing please, I am forever the rule follower and the bell rang for recess to be over. I could not wait on the line to go down the slide and take the chance of being late. Instead I ran over to the fire pole. I guess it moved at the last minute). But, I won't. No, I'll use the 6th one for this...I love being a brunette. Is that weird? Sure, I've highlighted my hair a time or two, but I genuinely love dark haired chicks. I am very drawn to dark hair. Guess that's why Dallas caught my eye. Can you believe he dated blondes before me? Whew, glad I came in and saved him...(I am fully prepared for the hoopla I'm going to get for this one. All of my best friends are blondes...Audrey, Amanda, Deb, Donna, Mauri, Tiff, the list goes on and on. Girls, I am just kidding!!
Have a great weekend everyone! Gigi headed to the mountains with her best girlfriend so it's just us three. We are headed to a birthday party tomorrow and a mean game of flag football. Sorry we are missing the Ga/Vandy game! Daddy & Boo, I'm sure you'll cheer them on to victory. We'll be at the Ga Tech game though!
