Since I'm pretty new to the ALI community I haven't been tagged, but in celebration of the last day of ICLW this month I wanted to share a little bit about me:
Eight things I am looking forward to:
Trip to France
Eventually having a healthy pregnancy and baby
Yoga
Margaritas with coworker buddies
Hiking with my dogs
Tonight's ice cream
Sleeping in on Sunday
Taking myself out for coffee tomorrow
Eight things I did yesterday:
Spent 7 hours in a meeting
Went for a walk (twice!)
Got a massage
Came home to a delicious dinner prepared by my mother-in-law
Discovered that said MIL had re-shopped after refusing to grocery shop with me (grr)
Spent some quality time laughing with my husband
Picked up travel books about France at the library
Played with a 3 month old
Eight things I wish I could do:
Run 10 miles
Speak French
Have a flat stomach
Go shopping without worrying about money
Quit my job (some days)
Bake the perfect pie crust
Help my brother more
Increase my patience
Eight shows I watch:
Unfortunately I can't complete this. Despite loving The Office I usually forget to watch it and while re-runs of Friends are some of my favorite things ever, well, I can hardly ever find them on network television (and we don't have cable).
Instead: Eight movies I love:
Life is Beautiful
Breakfast at Tiffany's
Pretty Woman
Napoleon Dynamite
Elf
Charlie & the Chocolate Factory (the old one)
Great Escape
Magnificent Seven
Eight favorite fruits:
Strawberries
Mango
Bananas
Apples
Peaches
Pears
Watermelon
Cantalope
Eight places I’d like to travel:
South of France (this summer!)
Ireland
New Zealand
New Mexico (again and again and again)
Hawaii
Scandinavia
Chicago (never really left the airport)
Idaho for river rafting
Eight places I’ve lived (no particular order):
California
Massachusetts
Michigan
Oregon (4 different houses)
Germany

I like the Great Escape, too, although I cant watch the ending without getting upset. Steve McQueen was quite the cutie, though, LOL!
