Ha Ha! This is a totally cute post! My dad is diggin' the Chevy Malibu thing...(he's obsessed with Chevy's). Well...i guess i'll have to do this too, (why not?), i'll post this when i get a chance! In the meantime I got to go and get ready for you know what! Woo-Hoo! Im like bubbling with excitement! And i haven't found my poetry book, but my mom hasn't whole-heartedly searched for it either! I'll ask her again later. See ya! --Victoria <3333
P.S. take my quiz...i want 2 see what you get!
Fun post... Such a variety of interests- I loved reading about you. I think we spent the past two years talking way too much about work!
I was just telling Dusan how I have always wanted a station wagon... in high school it was the VW Beetle station wagon...then it was the Volvo station wagon... Then it was the jetta station wagon. Now I wouldn't mind the BMW station wagon.
AAAHHH - you have influenced my life more than you know.
I love that you did this...it's a crack up!!!
