    No confessions?!?! WTH NADINE?!? Just kidding. I may have to steal this from you, and start calling you Nay Nay just because I can. 🙂

    Oooh, saving this post idea for future use. I love your Gulf Shores pic! John and I lived in Daphne for two years, about 45 minutes north of there and would drive down on the weekends.

    Just to let you know we are no longer friends. How is it you don’t like grits? Just playing, but seriously though. I love me some grits. BTW, you and Whitney could have a talk together one day about PLL. She loves that show.

    10 things i hate about you was on REPEAT FOR ME! I watched it pretty much every single day one summer just before HS!

    when i was in high school, people called me “party girl”. that’s not good (but it was awesome back then LOL).

    if you liked Tuesdays with morrie (which is an amazing book), you may like the universe vs alex woods.

    Ah, mushrooms. You’re missing out! I really like 10 Things I Hate About You. Excellent gif choice!

  • Reply Marie April 8, 2015 at 9:49 am

    How do you not like mushrooms? They are soo good!! Ten things I hate about you is such a great movie.

  • Reply Lindsay Latimer April 8, 2015 at 9:53 am

    this is such a cool post! I love getting to know more about you. It’s so cool that you’ve lived in 4 states! I’ve never moved out of Kentucky. We love Gatlinburg, too, but it’s been years since I’ve been at Christmas! I know that will be fun! Happy Wednesday!

  • Reply Stephanie April 8, 2015 at 9:58 am

    Definitely come visit Chicago 🙂
    I hate okra. My dad loves it. But it’s slimy and nasty.

  • Reply Ashley April 8, 2015 at 10:41 am

    10 things I hate about you!! I love that movie! I only have it n VCR so I havent’t seen it in forever! They just need to put in on Netflix!

    YAS 10 Things I Hate About You, awesome movie! Heath Ledger (Sniff!) and Julia Stiles are magic in that one! I LOVE your polka dress in that Gulf Shores picture, SO SO cute on you! I guess I’ll forgive you for not liking grits, as a Southerner it’s hard for me though. 😉 Adam actually hates them too.

  • Reply alyssa April 8, 2015 at 12:21 pm

    Love these posts and getting to know more about people! Always fun to mix it up during the week anyway… Confessions will still be there next humpday 😉

  • Reply M @ The Sequin Notebook April 8, 2015 at 12:24 pm

    Ah I love that Sheldon gif (and anything can happen Wednesday – haha!). Great list – we still need to do one of these since I love them so much! I’m right there with you on watching Wedding Crashers a million times. I’m also impressed that you’ve has the opportunity to live in four different states – my four are definitely going to be a lot more boring in that department!

  • Reply Jana @ Jana Says April 8, 2015 at 2:52 pm

    LOVE Wedding Crashers!

    I have Advil in my purse, too. And tweezers, travel sunscreen, band aids, gauze, and crayons. Because you never know.

  • Reply Allison April 8, 2015 at 3:02 pm

    I think we’re gonna go see The Longest Ride next weekend!!! My girlfriend said she also read the book and that it was awesome!

  • Reply Heather @ My Little HEA April 8, 2015 at 3:31 pm

    10 TIHAY Loooove! Wedding Crashers saw in the theater, but I haven’t seen the other two. Other than seafood, I don’t any of those things either. Nickname in HS was Hey. It rhymed with Slay and the letter K. We were cool.

  • Reply Amanda Elizabeth April 8, 2015 at 4:09 pm

    My skating nickname was Nahndee. I still for the life of me cannot remember how that all came out. I really like this post floating around! Definitely sounds like you have had your fair share of managing others 😉 Yeah I love seeing looking forward to birthdays! I can’t wait to turn 31! You had that selfie nailed even back when you had to wheel the instant cameras or was that just me in college? 🙂

  • Reply Tracy April 8, 2015 at 5:02 pm

    I always carry ibuprofen and I feel weird when I’m digging around it my bag and you can obviously hear that I have a bottle of pills in there but really…you just never know! I feel you.
    Dying over your Atlanta apartment view. I love these posts and loved getting to know more about you!

  • Reply Kerry April 8, 2015 at 5:56 pm

    Wedding Crashers is on of my favorites! I always have Advil too, you just never know. Italy is on my list to see in the next 5 years. The Family Stone is a movie I can always watch.

  • Reply Kate @ Green Fashionista April 8, 2015 at 8:32 pm

  • Reply Dorrie @ Bear Den Plantation April 8, 2015 at 9:20 pm

    Love this and must do- maybe next week! I could (and have) watched Dirty Dancing over and over and over. I LOVE Gatlinburg during Christmastime. I think this Thanksgiving, I’m taking my side of the family to Biltmore or to Nashville for a couple days. Yaaaay for PLL, booooo for not liking Mushrooms! 🙂

    Ahh I love this – I see you Ms. Manager of the month! 10 Things I hate About You is on my list too. And Fargo. So random!

  • Reply Teh Megan April 17, 2015 at 9:47 am

    I read the title as “on fours” and I was like damn that escalated quickly! lol
    Can you just be.. whelmed?
    Tuesdays with Morrie!! I love that book. It makes me so sad.
    San Francisco is awesome… apparently it’s “The City” of the West Coast. This is what living with a west coast baby has taught me. And Italy! I will get there one day.
    Annnnd you’d hate to eat with me because mushrooms are my fave and I’m a sucker for some grits and seafood.
