Memememememememe

Kris tagged me for a meme passed down from Jason who passed it down from Oregano.

We know by now that Poppy does not like to tag people, so I shall not tag. Besides, nobody does the meme if I do tag them. If you want to do the meme, feel free to. :)

10 years ago... I was unsuccessfully trying to make good enough grades to enter Vet school as well as unsuccessfully attempting to have a relationship with that first man who broke my heart. He was at Princeton and I wasn't, long distance. Also, I was in my experimenting stage and was more interested in quantity rather than quality (if you get my drift)...

5 years ago... I was standing in my bedroom after my husband-to-be yelled for me to come in. From the tone of his voice I thought something horrible had happened to one of the cats. While he was on the floor he pulled a ring box out of his pocket and proposed to me. I called him a little shit, but then I said yes.

1 year ago... I saw on MSN.com that the number one search keyword was blog. I'd never heard of that word before, so I looked up the definition and decided that blogs were dumb. (Ha. :)

Yesterday... I got my bottom braces!

Today... I got two high 5's from a male co-worker who I think just wanted to touch me... hmm.

Tomorrow... I will purchase and plant peonies in our gardens, perhaps mow the lawn, definitely read, and maybe go see Batman Begins and Land of the Dead back-to-back at the drive-in. Yippy!
