It's time to bid adieu to 2011

I've had a rather boring year, so I won't bore you with every detail...

I started life post-college.

I went to Mexico with a guy who now hates my guts.


I held a crocodile/alligator.  
I have no idea what the difference is, and don't care.
I HATE reptiles. 

I rode in a submarine.

I took a mind numbingly boring job at a Bank, 
where I got paid to not use my brain.

I quit the job at the Bank, 
in hopes that I still had brain cells left.

A job at the Motorsports Dealership fell into my lap.
I fell in love with my job.


I FINALLY traded in my Taurus and got a Jeep.

I scored some amazing tickets to a baseball game 
(on my birthday).

I did a radio interview.

I started my MBA.

I went to New York City again. 

I joined a gym.

I went skydiving again.


I quit my job at the dealership.
I loved the job;
however, I didn't love the way I was treated.


I went to San Francisco for surgery.


We had seven foster kids come through our home this year
(and still have three of them).



Until next time, 
The Intelligent Blonde

  3. I think our definitions of boring are completely different. I can't believe you've gone skydiving...and more than once! That's one thing I could never do!!

    {And I'm definitely up for a button swap! Just let me know when :)}
    Happy New Year pretty girl!! xoxo

    Love hearing that you had 7 foster kids come through your home this year. Making the world a better place, one child at a time :)

  6. "Rather boring year"? I'd like to see what an 'exciting year' looks like for you! Skydiving, trips to Mexico and New York, and providing a home for foster kids...I wouldn't say that's a boring year at all!! :)

    Happy New Year to you!! :)
