1-20
Alright, it took me long enough.
These are actually kind of fun. Somebody starts a trend in the blogosphere and it courses through sites like a flu in the office.
This particular one is how each number has significance in your life. Thank you Kellie and Bethany for bringing it to our corner of the internet.
- Times I’ve been married.
- Number of cars I’ve rolled. (A long, long time ago.)
- Number of MP3 players I have. I only use one regularly. And that one is used 95% of the time for running. Turns out I don’t really have a place in my life for an MP3 player outside of training sessions.
- Current temperature outside as I write this. Brrr!
- Current longest run since starting 3 weeks ago. (I’ve since broken this record… I guess I let this post languish in draft form for too long!)
- Number of working computers in my house. (Which correctly implies I have even more computers than that.)
- Number of years at my job.
- My age when I built a snow fort and pretended I was Godzilla and destroyed it.
- Number of years I’ve been married.
- Number of times I’ve moved in my life. Whew! (not counting back and forth to college)
- The volume level to which I’d choose to listen to the ironically named Enjoy the Silence by Depeche Mode.
- My favorite toy at this age was a dirt bike (bicycle) with a banana seat and a long fiberglass whip flag on the back. Sorta like this, but not quite.
- The age I actually wore rainbow suspenders like Mork from Ork. (I’m not proud of this one.)
- The age I moved to the North Country. Gouverneur to be specific. Groovy Gouvy to the sarcastically inclined.
- Number of centuries I rode last year.
- Age when I spent my WHOLE summer playing Risk and tossing a frisbee with my friends.
- Age when I had the BEST JOB EVER. Working the summer at Waterfun Theme Park in Alex Bay as a ride attendant. In the sun all summer, the crowds are there to have fun, so no annoying customers, only responsibility was to blow my whistle if there was a problem and a lifeguard would come and take over. It was sweet.
- Age when I stole my first road sign. (I was a freshman in college! What can I say?)
- Age when I crashed my future college roomie’s girlfriend’s high school prom. (It’s complicated.)
- Number of tech books/manuals on my desk at work. (Lame, I know, but dammit, these higher numbered items were hard!)

Interesting. YOU stole a road sign. You are such a freakin’ rebel. I don’t know who you are anymore :)
Ok, Godzilla, my husband would be envious! We only have three working computers, four if you count his laptop he brings home from work every night. Our den is a graveyard of computer parts that might be needed at some point.
HAHA I’m with you on the road sign..must be a college thing?? Number of computers?? WOW…and there are only 2 of you that live there right?? haha you have some for you company when they visit! I am also envious of spending an entire summer of just blowing a whistle…SIGN ME UP!??
Haha I like the suspenders like Mork from Ork!!!! Stealing a road sign, mmmm my kids wanted to and me being the “mom” told them no, but secretly I have always wanted a “rest stop” one, I would hang it right above my couch.
