Okay, we've been dead around here for a few days, so here is a poll I found on another board:
1. How many people did you graduate HS with?
2. Who do you plan to or did you have in the room during the actually delivery?
3. Do you think you are nicer/more apt to speak your mind on the message boards? Why?
4. What is your biggest pet peeve?
5. How old were you when you got married? (If applicable).
Re: Poll
1. How many people did you graduate HS with? 350
2. Who do you plan to or did you have in the room during the actually delivery? Only DH
3. Do you think you are nicer/more apt to speak your mind on the message boards? Why? Yes...I hate confrontation so I usually don't say everything I am thinking.
4. What is your biggest pet peeve? I have two random pet peeves: First, I hate it when people chew/crunch/eat ice! It seriously grates on my nerves...especially in meetings, workshops, at the movies, etc! Second, I hate it when people do not write thank you notes. If I was there and you saw me and said thanks I am a little more forgiving, but if I have not seen you and you never said thanks or even acknowledged the gift, then I get peeved!
5. How old were you when you got married? (If applicable). 22...6 months after graduating from college...3 months after getting my first job...1 month after buying my first home...what a year!!!
1. How many people did you graduate HS with? There were 98 in my class, but only 96 graduated.
2. Who do you plan to or did you have in the room during the actually delivery? DH will be the only one in the room with my for delivery.
3. Do you think you are nicer/more apt to speak your mind on the message boards? Why? I think I am about the same. I don't hide behind the internet to be snarky, but I still give people my honest opinion.
4. What is your biggest pet peeve? It really bothers me when DH goes in and out of our bedroom/bathroom in the morning while I am still asleep. Just leave the doors open! I think he is doing it to be nice but it wakes me up. Also, DH will leave cabinet doors open..drives me crazy!
