Eight

I'm blogblocked, so I thought I'd do this meme (thanks Sara) to help get unstuck:


8 things I'm looking forward to:



  • Weaning Max and having my body completely back to myself again. 
  • Taking the boys to the Apple Farm Spring Festival tomorrow (Thanks for the suggestion Mom!)
  • Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince THE MOVIE!
  • Going to the next JDK show (Anyone want to babysit??)
  • Going for a bike ride with the boys in the new bike trailer
  • Visiting Marianne, Jesper and their girls in Denmark (I want to do this sooner rather than later)
  • Being able to run a 5k (I'm working on this, my goal is by the end of the summer, I'm signing up for a 5k "midnight run" in August)
  • Finally being at my goal weight. AND STAYING THERE!


8 things I did yesterday:




  • Took Alex and Max to playgroup
  • Went on a walk (3.5 miles, during which the boys fought and screamed THE WHOLE TIME!)
  • Made chili with Alex (he loves to help me make chili, but he won't eat it)
  • Grocery shopping
  • Made a playdough car for Alex
  • Changed about 12 nasty Hershey Squirt diapers for Max
  • Finished reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows for the second time (I meant to only re-read Half Blood Prince in preparation for the movie, but you can't read HBP without immediately reading Hallows.)
  • Paid my friend the money for the new stroller and picked up the bike attachment for it


8 things I wish I could do:



  • Speak a second language.  Something cool like Swahili or Hindi or Klingon
  • Keep my house clean for longer than 15 seconds
  • Spend more time with the dog, she desperately needs more attention and training
  • Read minds
  • Somehow have a career AND stay home with my boys full time.
  • Sleep for 8 straight hours
  • The Vulcan neck pinch (which I think would be a very useful parenting tool)
  • Spend a year traveling the world


8 Shows I watch:



  • Mythbusters
  • 30 Rock
  • The Office
  • Dirty Jobs
  • Big Love (which I don't really like, but John does, so we watch. sigh.)
  • Dexter
  • How I met your mother
  • SpongeBob Square Pants


8 people to tag:



  • You
  • and You
  • and You
  • and You

    I think we have almost the same TV watching favorites. The only ones I don't watch are:
    # Dexter
    # How I met your mother
    # SpongeBob Square Pants
    I am currently reading the book that Dexter is based on, but I may never get around to finishing it. We should get together more.
