I am notorious for having no sense of direction. Therefore, I thought I'd blog about it. Therefore, you might not have a sense of direction if
1. You get lost.
2. You get lost while using a GPS.
3. You end up in WI twice while trying to get to Minneapolis from St. Paul.
4. You nod like you know what people are talking about when they give you directions and then just go look up the address on mapquest.
5. You are in big trouble if people give you directions and you can't then look them up on mapquest.
6. You end up in northern MI when trying to drive to Minneapolis from WI.
7. You have no clue if your house is north, south, east or west of the freeway...rather that it is by the big tree with the metal fence near it.
8. You have to drive the route three times before you feel comfortable driving there without a list of directions.

There's Just Something About MATT....because...

In honor of all of Matt's witty comments..I decided to write a blog about him.
There's just something about Matt because
1. He likes to sign wedding guestbooks with fake names. Joel and I were trying to figure out who Tom Jones was for FOREVER.
2. He makes fun of the fact that I'm trying to sell my iPod on facebook...
3. He convinced me to make gift bags for all of my wedding guests staying in hotels.
4. He's one of my husbands best friends.
5. He likes to ride sub-par roller coasters.
6. He looks for cheap prescription medications in Canada.
7. He's finding a cure for cancer. That's pretty amazing.
8. His suave phrases just say it all..."Any single women making the trip to MN? I'll meet you on the dance floor."
So, there you have it...if you have anything to add...please leave a comment.

Are You Annoying?
Since I've been married, I've discovered that I have some annoying habits. I don't know if you could call me an annoying person overall...but I definitely have some quirks that could be described as slightly irritating. This is a list of things people have done that have bothered me as well as a few things I've done that could be considered less than pleasant. Therefore, you might be annoying if
1. You eat all of the M&M's out of the trail mix bag...and leave all of the nuts for someone else to enjoy! (Shh..my husband hasn't figured out that I did this yet!)
2. You see a bug and you don't kill it.
3. You never stop talking.
4. You make smacking noises in your sleep. (No...this is not me or Joel!!)
5. You ask your host if there is something else in their cupboards that you could eat....even though a full meal has already been prepared for you.
6. You continually ring someones doorbell.
7. You use the last piece of toilet paper and do not refill.
8. You sing very loudly in the morning. (I LOVE the person who does this...you know who you are!)
9. You continually ask someone what size jeans they wear.

There's Just Something About.....BETHANY!!!

I decided that Bethany deserved a write up this week, because she did so much at my wedding...but received ZERO recognition for all of her work. So here goes. There's just something about...Bethany because:
1. She has a laugh that will bring you to tears. I don't think there is anyone in the world who's laugh can make me laugh that hard.
2. She's been known to not let people step on her bathroom rugs when washing their hands or brushing their teeth :)
3. She brings a new definition to the word sunburn.
4. Holy Moly...watch out for her dance moves! Especially if there's a pole nearby ;0
5. She's got a great sense of humor.
6. She's got an amazing lake behind her house. I'm so jealous!
7. Any girl with 3 sisters is definitely one that is dear to my heart.
8. She reads my blog...and likes it!
9. She's an amazing person.
10. She's a great friend! (if only she lived a little closer!)

The Comprehensive List of Airport Needs.
1. I believe that airports NEED lazyboy chairs. I was so sick the last time I was in an airport and they decided to delay my flight for 4 hours. I would have paid for a comfortable chair.
2. Hand held heaters. SHEESH....they make airports sooo cold in the summer. Layers just aren't enough to keep you warm.
3. Movie theaters. It's exactly what you need to fill your time while you are waiting for your connecting flight.
4. A gym. Why not work off all of those holiday calories while waiting for that next flight?
5. A better system. I feel like something always happens to my flights. I've sat on a runway for 6 hours before. This just should not happen.
6. Free internet access. Every other business has free internet...why do you have to pay $10 to check your e-mail at the airport?
What do you think airports need?

You Know You've Gained Weight When....
So, the reason I am posting this blog is because my husband and I just got back from our honeymoon. We went to a resort that had huge buffets for every meal. There was no way I couldn't gain weight. I therefore thought this post was appropriate.
You know you've gained weight when...
1. Elastic has become your new best friend.
vorite pair of jeans make you worry that you have become a "muffin top"
3. You are afraid to step on the scale...living in ignorance is so much better!
4. You know there is no way you are the same skinny weight you were on your last license...so you up your skinny weight a few pounds and hope you're not lying too much.
5. People ask you if you are pregnant.
6. Cankle Queen is your new nickname.
