Meet me on Monday

I'm doing a "Big Girl" thing, a normal thing, I guess, and doing Java's Meet me on Monday, a kind of get to know me post.... Meet Java over here... http://nevergrowingold.blogspot.com/2010/08/meet-me-on-monday_29.html

And me here

Questions:

1. What is your favorite kind of potato chip?
This is extremely difficult, but if we are just talking straight up POTATO chips, I think regular plain chips, but ruffles. They are the bestest for dipping. (But cheetos are my favorite "chips.)

2. Do you make your bed everyday?

How about NEVER? Unless I have company... But since I am never having company again because he died, I don't think I will ever have to make my bed again. :(

(Am I a Debbie Downer or what?)

3. How often do you go to the hair salon?

Like twice a year. I'm too cheap. I just get a quickie hair cut too. When my mom was footing the bill we went to "Ricardo's" and it was a whole experience but now since I'm paying I get the quick trim at Supercuts and the star treatment in my own bathroom at home with chemicals coming out of a target bag, if applicable.

4. What do you dip your French fries in?

Depends on what kind of fries we are talking about. McDonald's fries? I love them best straight up. In n Out? If I am being really naughty, gimmie that 1000 Island dressing... ooooh baby. When I was in elementry school we used to beg the waitresses in restuarants to give us thousand island for our fries. Locally we have this place called Jack's Urban eats and they have something called "Urban Fries" which has fries dressed up with bleu cheese dressing, bleu cheese crumbles, spicy chilli oil, parsley flakes, and some chilli flakes too. Oh my is that good!

5. Do you shop with coupons?

When I was really, really hard up last year and at the beginning of this year I did. I got around $100 worth of groceries, name brand for $20 at my best shot. It's posted on my blog here if you want to check it out! http://adventuresinemilyland.blogspot.com/2010/03/it-could-have-been-better.html

I have just been reading through your August posts... catching up I suppose. (This is my first visit and I read the 'about you' on your side bar)

First off I just want to say.... I'm sorry this has happened to you. I wish I could give you a hug but since I can't... *HUGS*. Secondly, thank you for being so honest and sharing your feelings. I can't imagine what you're going through. The fact that you're sharing your journey could very well help someone else along the way-- and I think you are awesome for doing that.

I also think you are awesome for choosing the path you chose. When you found out the truth, you had two paths to choose from-- bust him or keep his secret. You busted him. That tells me you are a good, honest person. (And that woman at the therapy session needed to get off her 12 year high horse! YOU are a victim!!!)

I came here to tell you I found you from MMM blog hop, but that was...well about an hour ago...lol. I WILL be coming back everyday. And if you need someone to 'dump' things on, who will just 'listen' and not talk back... my email is open to you anytime.

I'm new here as well, from Meet Me on Monday. Just got caught up, and I am so sorry this happened to you. From what you've written, it sounds like some people have not been kind to you about this situation. Please don't listen to them. They're just idiots.

I'm bookmarking your blog so I can see how you're doing. I hope many good things happen for you soon.

Emily...I NEVER heard of putting thousand island dressing on fries. That sounds wild and amazing. Personally, my favorite is chilli cheese fries.
