What's the worst/most embarassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it? I had NKOTB cassette tapes. No, they got melted in a campfire, on purpose.

What is stashed under your bed/mattress? Socks and hand towels. My cat likes to steal them.

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name? Still trying to figure this one out. I know I wouldn't have picked my name. I always liked Sarah, but I'm not a Sarah. Maybe Iris, Penelope, Gwyneth or Callista.

If you were invisible, where would you go? So many options! Either see what my kids actually do at school (not "nuthin"), or Area 51.

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be? There are so many options, I'm just going to go with the first one that came to mind. I'd like to go back and see Stonehenge when it was first built and see what they actually used it for.

What's the worst/most embarassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it?

Tubthumping by Chumbawamba.  Heck no. Lol

What is stashed under your bed/mattress?

Nothing sexy.  Extra clothes storage. 

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name?

Huh, I've never thought about it.  I love masculine names for girls.  Maybe Reese. 

If you were invisible, where would you go?

On a round the world cruise.  I'd be the invisible stowaway.

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be?

This is lame and personal but probably my wedding or my son's birth.  I'd love to experience either again.

What's the worst/most embarassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it? Vanilla Ice. It was a Christmas present from some family friends. No, I don't still have it.

What is stashed under your bed/mattress? My old lucky pillow(like a lovey, I've had it since I was a kid).  It's too gross to cuddle with anymore but I can't get rid of it.

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name? I'd go by my middle name. That is all.

If you were invisible, where would you go? Hmmm... dunno. Will have to think aboutit.

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be?The fall of the Berlin Wall.

ELF4321

What's the worst/most embarassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it?

Richard Marx' debut album. I'm pretty sure it's still in the huge case full of cassette tapes that I can't bear to part with but will probably never ever ever use again.  And I saw him in concert too. 

What is stashed under your bed/mattress?

A storage container with extra sheets.  And a thighmaster.  You know, the "as seen on tv" thing Suzanne Somers used to sell a billion years ago.  Yes, I actually use it on the rare occasions when I exercise.

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name?

Good question.  I've always liked the name Cassie, so maybe that.

If you were invisible, where would you go?

I can't think of anywhere good.  Maybe someplace really quiet and comfy to sleep where nobody would disturb me. 

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be?

Ugh, I always feel like I should have something impressive to say in response to questions like this.  I have no clue.

What's the worst/most embarassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it?  I had a Tiffany cassette.  Yep, I loved the Mall Queen back in the day. lol  I actually think I do still have it in a box in the basement with all my other cassettes.

What is stashed under your bed/mattress?Nothing

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name? I have no idea what other name I would have.  I hate my name, but don't know what else would fit me. 

Elf, my oldest daughter's nickname is Cassie!!  Her full name is Cassandra but everyone calls her Cassie. I love that name.

If you were invisible, where would you go? Walt Disney World.  I'd get into Walt's old apartment for the nights and enjoy the parks throughout the day.

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be? Lincoln giving the Gettysburg Address. I'm a Civil War buff.

What's the worst/most embarassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it? Wow, this one is a difficult one to answer. I would probably have to pick some glam rock like Poison or something along those lines. I know I do not own any of those CDs or albums anymore.

What is stashed under your bed/mattress? A box for my new boots and a plastic bin filled with miscellaneous clothing.

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name? I like my name a lot but I also like the name Sloan so maybe that would be my AE name.

If you were invisible, where would you go? I would hang around one particular co-worker. I have evidence that he lies to me often, and I know he is extremely arrogant. It would be nice to be a fly on the wall and see for myself what the truth is especially when he is getting reamed for something.

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be? This is another hard question to answer as there are so many interesting events to choose from. The first one that comes to mind right now is the first manned moon landing. I was born just a couple of years too late to have seen it and remembered it.

What's the worst/most embarassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it? Pretty sure the gogos, but i loved them at the time.  

What is stashed under your bed/mattress? Extra blankets, and purses. Amongst the dust buffalos.  I just swept there yesterday, it was scary. 

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name? Amanda, always liked it. 

If you were invisible, where would you go? Just follow people around. 

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be? My parents' wedding.

Hey, I've been lurking here, so I guess I'll play.

Most embarrassing CD: American Idol Season 1 CD. I'm not sure if it's still around here somewhere. I think I sold it at a yardsale or something.

Under my bed: Plastic tubs filled with out of season clothing. 

Choose my own name: I love my name, Sarah. If I *had to* change it, I'd choose Emily or Catherine.

Invisible: Hmm.. this is a hard one. I'm not much of a creeper. I don't think I can answer lol.

Witness past, present, future: Well, I hope I am present to witness important milestones in my DD's/possible future child's lives. It might be neat to go back in the past and attend my parents and grandparents weddings.

I figured I'd finally introduce myself over here after lurking for awhile (I recognize some of you from the regular Parenting board where I'm a sometimes poster/replier). 

I'm currently 35, DH is 36.  I have a 2 year old DD (October 2010 baby).  I am a working mom and we are going to start trying for baby #2 sometime this spring (hopefully).

What's the worst/most embarassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it? Rick Astley, Whenever You Need Somebody.  No, I think it was lost on one of my many moves.

What is stashed under your bed/mattress? Nothing, unless DD is hiding her socks and shirts under there again (I clean them out a couple of times a week). 

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name? I like my name and I don't think I would change it.

If you were invisible, where would you go? Hmmm... not really sure.

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be? I like the idea of seeing my parents or grandparents weddings.  Although seeing the building of Stonehenge and what they used it for would be awesome!

If you were invisible, where would you go?  I would go anywhere the public is not allowed - the basements of the Vatican, area 51, "secret chambers" - you name it!  

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be?  I would want to see my baby as an older adult, happy and loved - then maybe I would stop worrying about her so much!

Late to the party, as usual! 

What's the worst/most embarassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it?

I recall having cassettes.. lots and lots of cassettes.  Probably several Air Supply.   I think they're buried in a box in the basement somewhere.  Pretty sure I never got rid of them.

What is stashed under your bed/mattress?

Dust bunnies

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name?

I always loved Stevie, as in Stevie Nicks.

If you were invisible, where would you go?
Areas that were off limits to the general public, like the private areas of the White House.  That'd be cool.

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be?

Not one single event, but I'd love to see how our nation's government came about... all that political wrangling would be interesting.

What's the worst/most embarassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it? 

Weirdly enough, I don't own any albums I'm embarrassed about, but one that makes me shake my head is a Corrs CD. Totally not my kind of music, but I liked one song on there.

What is stashed under your bed/mattress?

Nothing, but we do put tissue paper between the mattresses to flatten them out.

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name?

I've always loved Tikiri, a traditional/ancestral name from my mother's family.

If you were invisible, where would you go?

I'd sneak into movies and big musicals, etc. to see them for free!

If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be?

I studied Medieval/Renaissance history in college, so I'd love to go back in time and see what people like King Henry VIII, Anne Boleyn, and all of those Tudor people looked like!  I'd want to take photos to bring back home to prove I was there, but it would have to happen quickly before they caught me and burned me at the stake or something for being a witch ... or I caught the Plague!

Late late late to the party!!!

What's the worst/most embarrassing CD/Album you've ever owned and do you still have it?

A bin full of DH's dress socks. Another bin with my Summer pjs. And DH's baseball cards. 

What would you call yourself if you could choose your own name?

I'm happy with Robyn. 

If you were invisible, where would you go?

I'd find a nice quiet bedroom and take a long, uninterrupted nap.

I'd love to be in NYC when WWII ended. I'm sure that was amazing. Everyone was so happy for the future.
