I’m baking dozens and dozens of little heart-shaped brownies for Jag’s class today, and it’s boring.  Oh so boring!  So I thought I’d do a little meme I saw on myspace to kill some time.

1. What is in the back of your car?  two Britax carseats, a Maclaren umbrella stroller, a navy blue golf umbrella with white polka dots and a plush giraffe

2. When was the last time you threw up?  I can’t even remember, it’s been years!

3. What color is your toothbrush?  pink

4. Name one person that made you smile today?  Jag.  He’s such a good kid, he makes me so happy.

5. What were you doing at 8 am this morning?  shopping for brownie ingredients and Valentine’s Day baggies/ties

6. What were you doing 30 minutes ago?  putting another batch of brownies in the oven

7.What is your nickname?  Jason and friends call me Stef, my Mom and other family members call me Teffie

8. Have you ever been to a strip club?  nope, I’m a prude like that

9. What is the last thing you said aloud?  “night night” to Kat as I put her down for a nap

10. What is the best ice cream flavor?  oh so many to choose from!  I can always go Caramel Swirl

11. What was the last thing you had to drink?  kind of embarrassed to say:  Diet Mt. Dew.  My secret is out!  I’m a Dewaholic.  I don’t let myself buy it by the 2 liter anymore, I usually just treat myself to a small one from the cooler by the register when I grocery shop.

12. What are you wearing right now?  Calvin Klein jeans, an “I’m a Democrat” tshirt (souvenir from DC) and a Florida Gators hooded sweatshirt

13. What was the last thing you ate?  erm, also embarrassed to say:  salt & vinegar potato chips.  I swear I don’t eat them as often as it may seem.  I only buy them when we have guests.

14. Have you bought any new clothing items this week?  not for myself, but I bought Kat 3 new spring/summer dresses that are just SO cute!

15. When was the last time you ran?  Sunday, playing with the kids at the park

21. Farthest place to go?  erm?  farthest place I have to go today?  I guess Jag’s school.

22. Do you have a tan?  bwahaha!

23.Dream/Favorite Car?  I don’t really dream or lust for cars.  I guess if I could go out and by any car right now and neither money nor space was an issue, it’d be either an Infiniti EX crossover, or maybe a little hybrid of some sort

24. Do you drink your soda with a straw?  only if it’s in a cup with a lid

25. What did your last text message say?  the last text message I received was from my wireless provider.  the last text I sent was to my sister, telling her to check her email.  I don’t do a lot of texting.

26. Are you someone’s best friend?  I hope so!

27. What are you doing tomorrow?  packaging up the brownies for Jag’s class party and going to a “reading ceremony” at his school where he’ll be getting a certificate from the headmaster  :-)

38.Last trip?  We went to the zoo in the western part of the state and made a weekend of it.

39. Any plans today? just to bake 3948918 brownies, pick Jag up from school and make baked ziti for dinner.  Exciting, eh?

41. Ever go to college?  yes

42. How many pillows are on your bed?  four.  one head pillow and one body pillow for me.  two head pillows for Jason.

43. Biggest annoyance in your life right now?  just that I’m tired all the time.  I need to start going to bed earlier, and figure out what I’m going to do about Kat waking me up several times a night still.

56. Do you use the word ‘hello’ daily?  I do with Kat

57. What is a goal for your life?  just to be happy and live well
