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.

1. Times I’ve been married.
2. Number of cars I’ve rolled. (A long, long time ago.)
3. 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.
4. Current temperature outside as I write this. Brrr!
5. 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!)
6. Number of working computers in my house. (Which correctly implies I have even more computers than that.)
7. Number of years at my job.
8. My age when I built a snow fort and pretended I was Godzilla and destroyed it.
9. Number of years I’ve been married.
10. Number of times I’ve moved in my life. Whew! (not counting back and forth to college)
11. The volume level to which I’d choose to listen to the ironically named Enjoy the Silence by Depeche Mode.
12. 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.
13. The age I actually wore rainbow suspenders like Mork from Ork. (I’m not proud of this one.)
14. The age I moved to the North Country. Gouverneur to be specific. Groovy Gouvy to the sarcastically inclined.
15. Number of centuries I rode last year.
16. Age when I spent my WHOLE summer playing Risk and tossing a frisbee with my friends.
17. 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.
18. Age when I stole my first road sign. (I was a freshman in college! What can I say?)
19. Age when I crashed my future college roomie’s girlfriend’s high school prom. (It’s complicated.)
20. Number of tech books/manuals on my desk at work. (Lame, I know, but dammit, these higher numbered items were hard!)
