My Roommates and I Once... got dressed in red long underwear from J. Crew (it even had a flap on the back) and put our hair in pigtails and went around to our male friends and sang "A Bushel and a Peck" on Sadie Hawkins Day. I think we even brought baked goods. I'm sure that was our saving grace.
Never In My Life Have I... mowed a lawn (Shannon, I thought I was the only one!!) or skied.
High School Was... uh, a learning experience. I went to two high schools and that allowed me to attempt to fix the mistakes I made at the first school. I changed aLOT between 9th and 12th grade. Not all was for the better, but I was much more confident (sometimes TOO confident) and much more willing to try new things.
When I'm Nervous I... dry heave. Thank goodness I don't get very nervous very often.
My Hair Is... needing to be colored. Lots of wirey grays making their presence known.
When I was Five... I lived in Spokane, Washington. My best friend was Chrissy Nelson and we used to love to go to ballet at the Y and swing on the swing set. My arch enemies were Lexi and Nichole who lived up the street and were mean to me and never wanted to play with me.
When I Turn my Head Left... I see a shelf full of puzzles, coloring books, and Jillise showing me the bloody hole where her tooth used to be.
I Should Be... doing anything other than this. Folding laundry, thawing meat for dinner, taking a nap... the possibilities are endless.
By This Time Next Year... I will still be wasting time on the computer while I should be folding clothes or thawing meat for dinner.
My Favorite Aunt Is... I have to choose? I have 11 of them and they are all super fun.
I Have a Hard Time Understanding... Math or Science. I am smart. I really am. But I am so right brained and visual that I really have a hard time getting my head around conceptual things like that.
You Know I Like You If... I let you see my house when it is an absolute disaster area.
My Ideal Breakfast Is... the Grand Slam from Dennys. I love french toast, eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns, OJ, the works. I would eat breakfast food every meal of the day if I could. I think.
If You Visit My Hometown... let me know! I don't really have a hometown. I was born in North Dakota, moved to Sacramento when I was 1, moved to Spokane when I was 4 or something like that, to Okinawa when I was 7, to Norfolk, VA when I was 11, to Washington D.C when I was 12, to Rome, NY when I was 15, and to O'Fallon, IL when I was 18. I don't really have a home!
If You Spend the Night at My House... you can stay up late to play Settlers of Catan. After that you get the blowup bed in the toy room. You have to share a bathroom with the girls, but I promise to clean it before you come.
My Favorite Blond is... Emily (not counting my family, of course).
The Animal I Would Like to See Flying is... humans. I would LOVE to fly!
Last Night I... went to Bunco and won a prize for Most Losses. It is the first legitimate prize I have won in almost two years of playing!! Afterwards I went to Walmart to buy cheap school supplies.
A Better Name for Me would Be... Um, that's hard. I am Paige. I have always been Paige. I didn't like the name when I was younger because it was too different. But I think that your name plays a big part in who you become. So I am a Paige. :)
I've Been Told I look Like... That blond girl with the short hair from Goonies.
I tag Emily, Gloria, and Jodi. You're it!!!

phew! I'm glad I'm also not the only one to never mow a lawn. I thought I was waaayy in the minority, especially after hearing stories of my mom mowing our lawn when she was big & pregnant.
Would've LOVED to see a pic from your long underwear escapade. =)
And Paige is a great name -- Scott was pulling for it when Anna came along.
Thanks for playing!
I have never mowed a lawn either :) And I have also always wanted to fly...THAT would make for some fun times! Fun little game, I enjoyed reading your answers.
I knew I was your favorite blond! I wish we had some pics of the long underwear escapade too - we probably weren't wanting to document that one for posterity at the time though, huh? Some things are better left to the imagination. I know, I know, I need to blog. I also need to lose 10 pounds and do some laundry...hey, maybe I could blog about that!
OK...Jamie and I want to spend the night at your house so we have another opportunity to play Settlers of Catan. Can't we try and redeem ourselves!!
Fun information about you. Thanks for sharing.
