I must have been cornered...

because I have been tagged TWICE! Both Leah J and RubyRedRuca tagged me, but they have different directions. I will post them both together, though.

First is Leah's:
So here are the rules...
Link to the person who tagged you,
Post the rules on your blog,
Write six random things about yourself,
Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs,
Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment at their blog,
Let your tagger know when your entry is up.

And away we go:
1. I have been dying my hair black since I was 18yo. I had really short hair my senior year of high school which allowed me to play around with the color. Boy, did I have fun with that. I had highlighted pieces that were longer in front that were dyed every color imaginable at least once. After I graduated, I decided to grow my hair into a bob and cut some Bettie Bangs. As soon as I told my hair dresser that I wanted bangs, she said, "BLACK!". I couldn't say yes to her fast enough. It was dyed a blue black color like Superman, and it has been that color ever since. It is too me to change it.

2. I am the type of eater that eats one thing at a time on my plate. I can't explain why, but I do. It is rare that I deviate from that quirk.

3. I don't typically have pregnancy food cravings, but lately I have been dying for the Daube de Boeuf from a little french cafe in Napa called Bistro Jeanty. I may have to have Daniel FedEx some take-out to me when he is in Napa this July since I am probably not going with him. Boo...

4. I love to see movies by myself, especially if they are foreign films. My favorite place to see them is at the River Oaks theatre here in Houston. There is just something freeing about being able to go to a movie on your own that I love.

5. My favorite day of the week is Sunday because that is the day that we usually head into the city for brunch. I love lazy Sundays sitting out on a patio eating delicious food with people I enjoy being around.

6. And last but not least, the walls in my living room, study, and kitchen are driving me crazy. I have not painted them, yet. They are huge spaces that require painters to come in and do it. I also have yet to pick paint colors I am crazy about. The spaces are all open to one another, so they have to work together. UGH! I am sick of contractor beige walls.

Now for RRR's tag...

What was I doing 10 years ago?
Wow...I just finished up my junior year of high school and was thrilled to be entering my senior year. I had just made captain of my drill team which had been a HUGE goal of mine since freshman year. I also started dating a guy that opened me up to a whole new world of music. Thank goodness for that. He was a loser, but his taste in music was incredibly amazing for someone his age.

Five snacks I enjoy:
1. Edamame
2. Pretzels
3. Chips and salsa
4. Veggies with hummus
5. Goldfish

Five things on my to-do list today:
1. La Leche League meeting
2. See Sex and the City with a friend at the Alamo Draft House to sneak in lunch with it.
3. Play with Leila all afternoon. Ava is with my parents for the week, and I am realizing how much she helps entertain Leila. Siblings are great in sooo many ways.
4. Clean the master bathroom.
5. Mop the floors.

Things I would do if I were a billionaire:
1. Invest, invest, invest.
2. Move our family to Napa with a second home in San Francisco.
3. Start some sort of foundation that worked to provide funding to other worthy foundations in need of money.

Five jobs I've had:
1. Gymnastics coach
2. Retail at Express
3. Professional dancer (not stripper LOL)
4. Cocktail waitress
5. Bartender

Five of my bad habits:
1. Not making my bed as soon as I get up, meaning that it does not get made often.
2. Picking at my cuticles.
3. Setting my keys down in random places making them a nightmare to find.
4. Cracking my knuckles.
5. Not finishing random things I start.

Five places I have lived:
1. Port Huron, MI
2. Memphis, MI
3. NW Houston burbs
4. Downtown Houston
5. West Houston burbs

Five people I want to get to know better (yes, this means you are tagged!) Just do one of the tags. :)
1. Kelly
2. Tricia
3. Mindy
4. Evonne
5. Paloma
