a, b, c, you wanna know me?

So I was going to write a super exciting post about my day. And all about how I went out to lunch with my former co-worker and how we spent an hour gossiping (she is the queen of gossip and still knows EVERYTHING about EVERYONE in our old office, though she hasn't worked there in a year). Then I was going to write about how I walked to Filene's Basement, the Boston Public Library, and then for the hell of it walked all the way home. And how I barely got any work done because I was out gallivanting all day. But then Shelley reminded me that I didn't do the meme Nicole posted the other day, so yeah, I'm doing that instead. You'll have to hear all about my exciting day another time. I know, I know. Sorry to disappoint.

A - Age: 25...Uhh I HATE saying that. So scary.

B - Band listening to right now: I'm listening to Ryan Adams as we speak. If you consider this speaking.

C - Career future: Who on Earth knows? Hopefully editing some fun stuff. And writing for major magazines. And writing relationship advice. More stuff too.

D - Dad’s name: Bert (and Ernie! haha that was in response to Nicole's Alvin and the Chipmunks). If I were a boy, I would be Bert III. Yup. I could have easily been Bertha...but I have a mother who was smart enough to put a stop to that.

E - Easiest person to talk to: Depends on what I'm talking about.

F - Favorite type of shoe: Uggs and heels, totally depending on my mood.

G – Grapes or Grapefruit: Love 'em both.

H – Hometown: Born and raised in A-town...now I'm a Boston girl. Brookline, more specifically. And I spent some college years in New Hampshire. Yay.

I – Instrumental talent: None! I played piano for about 11 years and I seriously sucked. I also played flute for 4 years and was a complete mess. I really want to be good at music stuff.

J – Juice of choice: Cranberry

K – Koala Bear or Panda Bear: Probably panda, but I love all bears. Fo' real.

L - Longest car ride ever: Um, I really don't remember. I guess Buffalo, NY...8.5 hours (like one
million times). Anywhere farther and I'd hop on a plane. But I have a really bad memory so I'm probably forgetting somewhere I've driven to.

M – Middle name: Marie.

N - Number of jobs you’ve had: My first job was an internship in PR at United Way. Then I worked at American Eagle for a couple years (until they made me stay from 8 p.m. on Dec. 23rd until 7 a.m. on Dec. 24th and only let me leave because I begged them. Hi, it's Christmas Eve). In college I worked at a gift shop and UNH apparel store in town. Got to do fun stuff like design clothing and meet with sales reps. Then I moved to Boston and worked for the state gov't until I realized I was the only one who worked. Quit a year ago and have been freelancing ever since. Mostly writing and editing relationship advice. I need a "real" job badly. Anyone? Want me? Please?

O- OCD traits: I do lots of weird ish.

P - Phobia[s]: All bugs. Heights. I have many irrational fears.

Q - Quote: "How many cares one loses when one decides not to be something but to be someone." -Coco Chanel

R - Reason to smile: Hanging out with my mom tomorrow. And getting a home-cooked meal from my dad. See? There are benfits to being unemployed! Also smiling that the weekend is almost here.

S - Song you sang last: Singing Plan B by Mute Math right now. Because it's on my iTunes and I'm singing along.

T - Time you wake up: Uhh totally depends. My life is pretty much a mess right now. The last few days, I've basically been sleeping from 4:00 a.m.- 9:00 a.m. I suck.

U - Unknown fact about me: I rarely get in grumpy moods. I am a naturally happy person and don't like being grouchy.

V - Vegetable you hate: I don't think I hate anything. Hmmm.

W - Worst habit: I probably gossip too much. But I'm a girl, right? In that case, I shop too much too.

X - X-rays you’ve had: My teeth. And my ankle when I sprained it triple jumping in high school. I've never actually broken a bone in my life!

Y - Yummiest food my belly likes: Whatever my parents cook. Chicken pot pie. Orange vegetables. Homemade Mac and Cheese.

Z - Zodiac sign: Libra. And I'm TOTALLY a Libra 100%

Now, you try. kthnksbai.
