I've Been Tagged!

So, my husband's dear cousin, Amy, "tagged" me on her blog, and now it's my turn to answer this list of questions... So this post is about me :) and not the kids.

1. What are your nicknames?
My nicknames, huh? Some are embarrassing....but I guess I'll share. In college my friends called me "Amer", and "Guilder" or "Guildy". I also had a friend call me "Bimi", short for Abimilech...long story. In grad school one friend called me "Amelia," because I told him once about how when I was like seven I wished my name was short for something. When I played basketball, my coach called me "Tiger" because he thought I was aggressive on defense. My dad calls me Ud-la.....I especially loved that one as a teenager, especially when my siblings turned it into a chant, "ud, ud, full of crud" :) (can't you just picture Jessa shouting that combined with her evil laugh??) and I have no idea where that came from. Bryan calls me "babe," "honey," or "szhuv," or "soulmatey". I won't embarrass him anymore, though. :)

2. What game show and/or reality show would you like to be on?
Oh, I would LOVE to be on The Amazing Race! I would need a partner who was strong, not afraid of heights, and could complete all the disgusting food detours. Also someone who spoke several different languages would be a plus. :) I also think I could do well on Wheel of Fortune and hopefully win big bucks.....I have always loved that game!

3. What was the first movie you bought on DVD or VHS?
Hmmmmm......not sure about that one. I think one of the first ones I actually bought myself was When Harry Met Sally.

4. What is your favorite scent?
I love the smell of lilacs in the spring. I also love the smell of orange blossoms---it reminds me of Spain. Love Spell by Victoria's Secret was the scent I wore in our wedding and honeymoon, so I like that one a lot still. Blueberry muffins baking... pot roast in the oven.... apple pie.... okay, I'm getting too hungry, next question!

5. If you had one million dollars that you could only spend on yourself, what would you do with it?
Well, probably pay off debt, the house, etc. Buy my dream house. Travel the world. Save some money for retirement and for the kids to go to college. Oh, I know! Hire a housekeeper!

6. What one place have you visited that you can't forget and want to go back?
I would love to go back to Europe, with Bryan this time, and no kids. My dream trip would be to tour England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and make a few stops in Norway.

7. Do you trust easily?
It depends.

8. Do you think before you act, or act before you think?
Well, most of the time I think before I act, or I spend so much time thinking that I don't have time to act! But when I'm angry I probably more often act before I think.

9. Is there anything that has made you unhappy lately?
Seeing someone I love feeling stressed out.

10. Do you have a good body image?
I just had my third baby!!!! So, no, I am not crazy about my body at the moment.....but I'm working on it. :)

11. What is your favorite fruit?
I love raspberries, but they're always so expensive. Big juicy blueberries are good. I like peaches, too, the fresh, sweet kind from Colorado! I like variety though, so a nice fresh fruit salad sounds delicious!

12. What websites do you visit daily?
Well, I do visit other blogs....but I also am on Facebook, and the library web site.

13. What have you been seriously addicted to lately?
Dark chocolate. JoAnn Fabrics. The Twilight books.....

14. What is the last song you got stuck in your head?
Pretty much every song on the Snack Time CD by the Barenaked Ladies....only because it's the only music my boys will listen to in the car!

15. What is your favorite item of clothing?
shoes. :)

16. Do you think Rice Krispies are yummy?
Yes, especially if they're the sugary, colorful kind--I can't remember the name, and in Rice Krispie Treats!

17. What would you do if you found $100 laying on the ground?
Pick it up and put it in my pocket!

18. What items could you not go without during the day?
My cell phone, a book to read, chapstick.

19. What should you be doing right now?
Changing a dirty diaper...

20. Name 3 people who should be tagged
