Tagged and an Award!!!

Hey! What a day!

I got some new responsibilities at work today!

No more money :(. But hey, in an economy like this, I'm happy to have a job. And the more reasons they have for keeping me around, the better!

I also was tagged by Kim at Kim's Treasures to participate in a confession for the first time today! So, if you really want to know ...

1)What is your blogger name? Paula.

2) When is your birthday? October 24.
3) How long have you been blogging? Exactly one month today!
4) Who tagged you? Kim.

5 ) Tell me your 5 most favorite body parts. My smile, My teeth, My eyes, My lips, My hair, I guess? I could more easily tell you five I hate!
6) What do you wish most for your birthday? An engagement ring :)
7) What color are your nails now? Deep red.
8) Any depressing thoughts lately? Worrying about having surgery, picking the right surgeon and the right place to have the surgery. I'm driving myself nuts over it!

9) What's your next 1 month's plan? Have surgery and recover, think of something fabulous to do for my boyfriend's birthday, work on some painting projects if it gets warm enough.

10) At what age did you have your 1st crush? I was 5 and he was 15! LOL. He called me his girlfriend and I thought I really was ...

11) Did you attend any school reunion after you graduated till now? This is just my fifth year out of high school and there was no reunion. I think I will go though to the 10th.

12) Have you ever passed gas in public and pretended you didn't smell anything? I'm not sure. I can't remember doing it, but maybe I blocked that memory?

13) Are you a clean freak? I really hate clutter, but unfortunately in my small space, it is never as clean as I'd like it to be.
14) Which era do you wish you were born into? I think the 50s or 60s would be fun.
15) Are you a vegetarian? Nope.

16) How many pillows do you sleep with at night? One. And it has to be a fluffy one!

17) Are you a light sleeper or an I-don't-care-if -there's-a-bomb-here sleeper? Extremely light. Ugh!
18) Do you secretly wear comfortable granny panties when your man is not around? No. Well I don't consider them to be granny panties anyway. They are bikinis and my bf thinks they are granny panties!
19) What is your ultimate dream job? Don't laugh ... I think it would be super fun to work for QVC or HSN or something and play with all the pretty things and talk to the people that call in. LOL.

20) What is it your hubby does that annoys you the most? I'm not married, but my bf is a little messier than I would like. But I'm working on not letting it get to me as much.
21) What is your dream car? I have really never cared much about cars. As long as it looks decent and it runs, I'm happy!
22) Do you easily wake up in the morning? I am very cranky when I get up.

23) Do you like hairy men? Depends.
24) How about goateed men? Yes. My bf shaved his off once and it was so strange!

25) Which one would you prefer, 2 hour spa, 2 hour Thai Massage or 2 hour foot massage?
I have unfortunately never experienced any of these, but they all sound nice!

26) Have you ever wished you had a different name other than your real name? Yes. I always thought Paula sounded like an old lady. But I've grown to accept it and the reason it was given to me.
27) What is the most extreme sport you have ever done? I used to play golf. Does that count as extreme?
28) Do you prefer traveling in Europe or Asia? I have never been overseas, but I would love to see both!
29) What is your favorite food? I LOVE lots of food. Italian is probably my favorite. And ice cream!
And Finally,
30) What is the most embarrassing moment when you were out on a date? Believe it or not, I can't think of one. I had a blind date once and the whole thing was just awkward.

I hope you guys still like me after all that!
