oh my goodness.
you are too awesome.
your blog is a favorite spot of mine.
i love this.
Good job Ali, I loved that. So fun to get to know things about you I didn't.
Ali... Thank you for sharing! I consider you a dear, dear friend, but some of these secrets I didn't know... but, now I do. Loved it! (How did you think of 100???)
I loved reading this Ali, and I think I knew almost everything on the list. A few suprises...#31 I love vinegar, #60 I carry three bags with me almost all of the time, and #66 I hate doing my hair---(I sure doesn't show). This was so fun to read...I think I will do the 100 things about me too.
How fun! This was so great to read. I tried my own list and by the end, I was completely bored with myself. Thanks for yet another great idea!
I cannot take credit for the idea, just the answers. I read this on someone else's blog who I don't even know when I was really bored yesterday and found myself wanting to do the same.
Funny what you learn about yourself. It kept turning into more of a confessional than anything, and it's so easy to point out your flaws, but not your pluses.
And the 100 go by surprisingly fast. One thing leads to another...
All of you should do the same so I can read it! :)
You've inspired me! BTW, don't be jealous of my brains...they're not nearly as sexy as yours.
Ali, I loved reading this. And I talked to Robby yesterday and it was one of the first things he mentioned. He LOVED it. He said he felt like he knew you better afterwards. So, don't worry, there is at least one dude who reads your blog.
ps. Jamie you are damn funny.
