If you only had 24 hours to live, what would you want to do?
1. go to Letchworth State Park with my family.
2. eat steak with my grandma and grandpa Roulo.
3. go to RedJugPub, Dark Horse, Beer Goggles with all of my friends and relive some of my favorite memories from undergrad.
4. stargazing with Johnny C. in his backyard.
5. play cards with my grandma and grandpa Ingalls.
6. go for a walk with my daddy-o around town.
7. go shopping with my mom and not worry about how much money I spend!
8. run around a track as fast as I can...one last time.
9. shoot some hoops.
10. travel to France and back to see my sister.
These are some of the things I can think of off the top of my head that would make those 24 hours the best. Sure it would be fun to do a bunch of crazy things like skydiving but when it comes down to it, simple is sweet and I would relive some of my favorite times if I only had 24 hours left to live.

day 2
Write about the best friends you have had over the years.
Gosh, I don't even know where to start with this one! I have so many different groups of friends that it's hard to just start typing about them all. But that's what I really like about my friends- they're from everywhere! I have a few good friends from high school, some really great friends that I've known since freshman year of college, and then all of the other friends I met along the way.
I just spent about 45 minutes going through pictures I have on facebook in an attempt to gear up and talk about all of my friends..I started saving pictures to post along with little stories about those certain pictures. I quickly learned that I do not have enough space nor time to revisit all of those memories on here for you, but revisiting them on my own surely brought tears to my eyes.
So, rather than sit hear and unravel the many memories I have shared with all of my friends I will challenge you to do something instead...dig deep and think about who your closest friends are and why. Bring up all of those photos on Facebook or in your photo albums and go through them. I know they are the first thing I turn to when I've had a not so positive day and I bet you will find it to be just as comforting knowing that you have the support of everyone you see in those pictures as I do.
Cheers to my friends...and a big thank you for being you! :-)

day 1
here we go! 15 facts about myself.
1. I went to a casino with my grandparents the last time I visited home. I secretly liked it. I didn't want to like it, but I did. The excitement that comes from "winning big" and then wondering what to do next. I lost $30, BUT I had a lot of fun. I won't be a regular that's for sure, however I won't fear walking into a casino ever again. Pace yourself. Bring what you're willing to lose. And have fun. That's it-that's what I learned from my first experience at a casino.
2. I always sleep on the same side of my bed and never in the middle of my bed even though it's just me. I'm a creature of habit, but I think this has more to do with the fact that I am just much more comfortable on the right side (looking from the headboard) than in the middle or on the left.
3. One of my least favorite things to do is laundry. It takes me days to finish a few loads of laundry. In fact, I usually have to re-wash the loads because I leave them in there too long and they start to smell musty. Gross, I know.
4. I have a tendency to drive around town when I have a lot on my mind or just need a little time away. Most people read or take a bubble bath to relax...I drive around with my music playing loud with no destination in mind. I have discovered many different routes to various places in the surrounding area...I'm up to about 5 different ways to get to Greek Peak! Super cool, I know.
5. Recently I have started to eat shrimp. I still prefer chicken, but it's a nice change every once in a while.
6. Red Robin's commercials always make me happy. Reddd Robin. YUMMM!
7. Not a day goes by that I don't think about my senior year in college.
8. My favorite song ever is Pokerface. I could listen to it on repeat for hours.
9. My dad has always told me that I should be a flight attendant. I secretly wonder what it would be like from time to time.
10. I don't like greeting cards. I appreciate them when other people give them to me, but I'm not very good about returning the favor. Something about using someone else's words to express what "I'm feeling" doesn't quite make sense to me. But don't let that stop you from using snail mail and sending them to me from time to time :-p
11. My biggest pet peeve is probably when people are rude to customer service workers. Yes I have had the occasional run in with an unhappy waitress but I do my best to remain kind and courteous. If nothing else, it will drive them crazy and I will walk away knowing that I couldn't have possibly made their day any worse because I wasn't rude back to them!
12. One of my favorite things is when cashiers make small talk. I think it's great that they are making the best out of their job or better yet, love talking to people!
13. I want to coach soccer.
14. Babies scare me. I'm always afraid I am going to hurt them. And when they cry I get really nervous...nauseous nervous because I never know what is wrong with them.
15. I would love to go to see Ellen DeGeneres live.
