Ashology

I had the best week last week! First Lauren came to visit and then Andrea! I'll update on their visits soon. I'm waiting on Andrea to email some pictures. :) I copied this from Brian & Brittany's blog. I love doing these.

***********FOODOLOGY***************

What is your salad dressing of choice? Italian, but sometimes Ranch. It depends on my mood.

What is your favorite sit-down restaurant? I have two favorites in Miami: Anacapri and Da Vittorio. They are both Italian. Real Italian.

What food could you eat every day for two weeks and not get sick of? Well I already eat chocolate every day that I'm alive. I think I could eat steak every day and never get sick of it.

What are your pizza toppings of choice? Pepperoni, sausage, & black olives

What do you like to put on your toast? I never eat toast but when I was little I loved it when Nana made us toast with lots of cinnamon and sugar on it!

***********TECHNOLOGY***************

How many televisions are in your house? Currently we only have 1. Our house in Nashville had 5 TVs in it. Basically every room except for the bathrooms had a TV.

What color cell phone do you have? Silver

Do you have an I-Pod? Yes, and it is sliver also.

***************BIOLOGY******************

Are you right-handed or left-handed? Stupid question. Who cares? But I'm right-handed.

Have you ever had anything removed from your body? I had a mole removed and then they called me and said it had A-typical cells so I went a little crazy and tried to have every dark freckle I spotted on myself removed.

What is the last heavy item you lifted? Lauren's suitcase.

Have you ever been knocked unconscious? Nope.

************DUMBOLOGY******************

How many pairs of flip flops do you own? Probably over 20. I'm not kidding. It's all I wore in Dominica.

Last time you had a run-in with the cops? In Dominica when the "undercover" cops were carrying machine guns around our apartment.

Last person you talked to? Ryan

Last person you hugged? Ryan

**************FAVORITOLOGY****************

Season? For the past 2 years the only seasons I've experienced have been rainy season and dry season. I much prefer dry.

Holiday? Thanksgiving is my favorite because there isn't all of the stress of buying tons of gifts. However, part of what I love about Thanksgiving is that it is the kick-off party for the Christmas season. I LOVE decorating for Christmas, listening to the music, baking lots of treats, going to parties, etc. But it all starts at Thanksgiving. Plus, you get 2 days off work!

Day of the week? Friday

Month? December. Everybody's in a better mood that month.

***********CURRENTOLOGY*****************

Missing someone? Lots of someones. I want to go home!!!

Mood? Somewhere in the range of good to very good.

What are you listening to? Family Feud on TV

Watching? Family Feud

Worrying about? Eryn's mom.

***************RANDOMOLOGY*****************

First place you went this morning? To the bathroom. Isn't that everybody's first place of the morning?

What's the last movie you saw? Steel Magnolias with Andrea. She had never seen it!

Do you smile often? Yes, but when I'm not smiling my "normal" face looks mad.

Sleeping alone tonight? No way, jose!

***************OTHER-OLOGY*****************

1) Do you always answer your phone? Nope. I hardly ever answer it if I don't recognize the number.

2) It's four in the morning and you get a text message, who is it? Wrong number.

3) If you could change your eye color what would it be? I like my green eyes. I used to want to get those colored contacts that make your eyes look blue or brown, but Ryan was very opposed. He doesn't like it when I change anything. Even though I don't want to change the color, I would like to change the size. I wish I had really big, bright eyes. Mine are pretty small.

3b) If you could change your hair color, what color would you change it to? After much research, trial and error, I'm a brunette. Sometimes I'm brown with light highlights, sometimes I'm brown with auburn highlights. My goal for the past year has been to find my natural color so that I can stop coloring it. The problem is that the sun keeps bleaching it out and so I have to continue covering up my roots. Andrea just colored my hair for me this week so now it is a golden brown.

4) What flavor do you add to your drink at Sonic? I always get Cherry Sprite.

5) Do you own a digital camera? We have 2.

6) Have you ever had a pet fish? When I was little. Adam and I both got a fish (his was a boy and he named it Frunkus and mine was a girl). We put them in the same bowl and my fish ate Frunkus' tail (so he died). Adam was furious so he threw my fish in the toilet. Every time we stuck the little net in the toilet to catch her she swam back up in the hole. We tried to lure her out with food. We had only had the fishes for 1 day so I didn't really know how to feed them. My mom told me to put a little fish food in the toilet, but I really really wanted her to come out and stay there so I dumped half the box in the toilet. We just kept fishing out food and eventually had to flush the toilet. After that traumatic experience, I've never had another fish!

7) Favorite Christmas song(s)? All I Want for Christmas is You by Mariah Carey and Tender Tennessee Christmas by Amy Grant

8) What's on your wish list for your birthday? The fancy Charlotte Cecil cake from Chocolate Fashion. I've had my eye on that for months!

9) Can you do pushups? Yes. I can only do a few of the real ones but I'm pretty good at girl pushups.

10) Can you do a chin up? Haven't tried since 9th grade.

11) Does the future make you more nervous or excited? Excited!

12) Do you have any saved texts? I saved a picture of Barkley my dad texted me.

13) Ever been in a car wreck? Oh yes. You all know about that.

14) Do you have an accent? No way. But after I moved out of TN I noticed that everybody else does!

15) What is the last song to make you cry? I tear up pretty easily with songs.

16) Plans tonight? Making hamburgers for dinner and Ryan and I are going to watch the last 3 episodes of 24 season 2! Can't wait!!! And to top it off, I made cookie dough for dessert! :)

17) Have you ever felt like you hit rock bottom? No. I'm too blessed to feel like that.

18) Name 3 things you bought yesterday? I didn't buy anything yesterday! That's a great feeling! I'm about to go down to the drugstore right now any buy diet cokes, milk, and popcorn.

19) Have you ever been given roses? Duh. I'm a girl.

20) Current worry? I'm a worrier by nature, but right this minute I'm doing alright. :)

21) Current hate right now? Ugh. The media. And pretty much every driver in Miami...leave me alone and stop honking and passing so fast and cutting in front of me with no blinker! And when a light turns yellow...just slow down!!!

22) Met someone who changed your life? Lots of someones! Most importantly, Jesus. All of my friends and family change my life for the better!

23) How did you bring in the New Year? At Paige & Dave's eating pizzas and playing games with friends, which I much prefer over going out and paying tons of money!

24) What song represents you? Lucky by Jason Mraz - "I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend. Lucky to have been where I have been. Lucky to be coming home again."

25) Name three people who might complete this? I'm just going to say Andrea because I've tried everything else to get her blogging again!

26) Would you go back in time if you were given the chance? Sure. As long as I could come back to now. I would love to see different parts of history.

27) Have you ever dated someone longer than a year? Yep. I've been "dating" Ryan for 7 years.

28) Do you have any tattoos/piercings? I will never get a tattoo because there is nothing that I want tattooed on my body when I'm 90 and wrinkly. My ears are pierced. I "rebelled" (ha!) and got the top of my ear pierced in college. My mom hated it and told me I looked like a carnival person. I eventually took it out and let it grow back together. So, I'm boring and traditional with the basic piercings.

29) Will you be in a relationship 4 months from now? I'm not even bothering with this question.

30) Does anyone love you? Or this one.

31) Would you be a pirate? No. I get sea sick.

32) What songs do you sing in the shower? Church songs. I was singing Ancient Words in my last shower.

33) Ever had someone sing to you? Yes. Ryan likes to sing a little George Jones to me from time to time. :)

34) When did you last cry? Saturday night. We were watching 24 and Kim was on the phone with her Dad and she thought he was going to crash in a plane and that she would never talk to him again. Lauren and I were both crying.

36) Do you like to cuddle? Love it! I'm a big time cuddler!

37) Have you held hands with anyone today? Not yet.

38) Who was the last person you took a picture of? Andrea.

39) What kind of music did you listen to in elementary school? New Kids on the Block!!! And pretty much all 80s music...Paula Abdul, Debbie Gibson, Tiffany! Still love the 80s!

40) Do you believe in staying close with your ex's/prospects? Nah.

41) Are most of the friends in your life new or old? Well I have a lot of new friends from Dominica, but I still have a lot of old friends. Of my 11 bridesmaids, this is how long we have been friends:
Julie, Marissa, Emily T. - 15 years (since 7th grade)
Sarah - 12 years (since 10th grade)
Paige, Beth, Emily N., Lauren, Mandi - 9 years (since first year at Lipscomb)
Emily S. - 7 years (met Ryan)
Ashley H. - 5 years (first year at FDH)

42) Do you like pulpy orange juice? Yes. I like it fresh.

43) What is something your friends make fun of you for? Oh, everything. I get lost all the time. I eat cereal with a fork. I freak out if people touch me with their feet. I'm kind of clumsy. That's enough, I think.

44) If it were possible, would you want to know the day you were going to die? No way.

45) If you could change your name, what would you change it to? I changed it to Paige (my middle name) when I was in elementary school. There were 2 other Ashleys in my class and I thought I was too unique to share my name. After a few days my teacher talked to me and told me to stop signing my assignments Paige.

46) Would you drink an entire bottle of hot sauce for $1000? I would try but I'm terrible at drinking gross things. And I hate spicy things. I drive Ryan crazy because he wants me to drink Alka Seltzer Nightime Cold when I'm sick and I just can't do it. I feel like I'm going to cry when people try to make me drink something I don't like. Yes, I am a big baby.
