food: My favorite thing to eat - very hard to answer... I'm gonna go with squash. I love SQUASH! I love it 'most' because every way I've had it prepared - I like.

makeup: if highlights don't count... then I'm going with the Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush lip balm... I don't wear much makeup (even though I should) but the highlights are something I would give up all make-up for (as long as I still get Carmex).

Races: I am planning on doing the VA Beach Half Marathon again but that's not until the end of the summer. I would like to try the Ragnar Relay that you and your gal pals ran, someday.

I would say between 5 and 15 times a day. I mean, people say a lot of inappropriate stuff around me. They might not know they are, but still. PS: I know the family, perhaps the very person, with whom this question originated! science

I don't really miss King George... I mean, I miss the fact that friends/family were so close by and I also miss the memories of an easy time in life...but I have a lot of bad memories from KG too. It wasn't KGs fault, it was a great place to grow up... I grew up though and that means there were trials along the way and some of them are just better left behind in KG. I haven't ruled out moving back someday well down the road, but for now I'm perfectly content living where I am in Northern VA. I do miss the calm/quiet of living on the farm more than I can even say. But wishing I was back there would mean having to go through all my junk again and I just don't want that one bit! Plus, at least Chis and I live on a quiet street between 2 parks - for Northern Virginia we're not way too citified. It's pretty quiet... just not KG quiet. No one here knows all of my baggage though, so the gossip is much quieter!

I would make sure its a beach front spa first and that all services are rendered on the beach or a beach bungalow... I would get a sports massage - especially my back and my neck, and then I would want to lay in a hammock or something and sleep/relax with a server bringing me drinks whenever I want one.

It depends really on what has me "not so relaxed" I don't really listen to music to relax though. I don't even drive with music on the radio. The most relaxing sound to me is the sound of laying on the beach. I love the sound of waves crashing and even pesky seagulls squawking. The most relaxing music to me is probably piano - if nature music doesn't count.

My favorite person in the world! The real people in my life, I could never choose between. Family, and not just the biological type (I have friends and their parents I consider my family) - comprise my favorite "person".

My favorite person: unknown, famous, or fictional (for today - it changes depending on my mood) is Dwight from the Office. What a piece of work that guy is!

I'm generally happy... I'm not one of those always happy go lucky people though. I'm cursed with the persistent inner melancholy. I just need a lot of time to sort things through in my mind. I love my family, I love my friends - I wouldn't want anyone else's life because I love mine so much. I've been through a lot and I'm still standing so that's something in and of itself. I know I've been blessed and I may not smile all day long everyday, but I continue to grow as a person appreciate the genuinely happy moments more and more. I do miss the bliss of being a child without nearly as much worry. I did worry as a child - but mainly at night when it was dark and I had nothing much else I could do. I'm happy today - especially now that I've had my coffee! It was touch and go there for a bit.

it's going to snow so little...there's going to be negative snow. I don't know what all the fuss is about and nope! that's not our street, cars, or trees already covered outside. We may as well be in Miami! Geaux Saints!

Food I’d never get tired of: I’d get sick off of eating strawberries before I ever had the chance to get tired of them

I wanted to be a pediatric surgeon growing up. I thought that meant having a regular doctor’s office during the day and doing surgical procedures at night. I continued with that same goal well into my teenage years. By the time I went to college, I still wanted to be a surgeon – I just wasn’t sure I’d like to specialize in pediatrics. And even now, I would really like to go to medical school and become a surgeon. I haven’t ruled it out. I know it must sound far-fetched, but I’ve been through a great deal in my life and I know that if this continues to be a steady goal – I’ll get there eventually.

My favorite vacation: Hmmm. This is hard! I love the Outer Banks of North Carolina. In the whole wide world, this is my very favorite place. However, I never took a vacation with my family to the OBX. I think that I will have my very favorite vacation this summer – I hope to go to the OBX with family and friends.

I remember taking a trip to Florida and driving all through the night. I did not drive, but I stayed awake with my dad while he did. When I look back on it, that’s my very favorite because I got to spend so much time with him and we talked to truckers on the CB radio… we visited some really cool places when we got to FL. I loved Wakulla Springs and St. George’s Island. As beautiful as those places were, I also loved sitting on the patio in the cool night air listening to blue grass with my dad. There was an awesome station that played down there – and the DJ had the neatest old man voice. My dad really relaxed on that vacation and that is such a wonderful memory.

I work as a Program Analyst specifically involved in program management & finance. I’m part of the Navy’s SPAWAR PEO-EIS, Sea Warrior Program (PMW 240), Systems Engineering Team. I manage a number of deliverables/documents required for software reviews and releases. The program I work on is pretty large. It primarily deals with issues involving streamlining Navy education and career transition. I spend a lot of time in virtual meetings with people in Crane, IN, Millington, TN, and San Diego, CA. I work in Crystal City where the Program Executive Office - Enterprise Information Systems is located. As a spouse of someone who recently transitioned from military (Navy) to civilian, I recognize and understand the importance of what our program is working to accomplish.

Besides medical technology…and excluding all the generally accepted “must have” technologies (refrigeration, transportation, heat, plumbing, etc.)… I would say that internet is my favorite piece of technology. I enjoy twitter, blogging, reading the news online, watching TV online, emailing friends, and even shopping. Some of the stories I’ve been lucky enough to read were because of the internet – and many of those stories have changed my life in some way or another.

The Office!

Pay off our house, buy my dad a cool house, a motorcycle, and... don't tell - but prob a kidney :)

I would have to be shrunk back down, I guess... It would have to be To Kill A Mockingbird
