I accepted my friend requests and nothing really happened.... Did these people even actually request to be friends?! I think mine were Alyssa and Mel.

It is a small world. That's funny. I wonder if we were ever there at the same time. If you see a girl banging her head against the cart, that will be me. I always seem to pick the worst times to shop - it's always crazy busy when I go. I'll check it out next time I'm there. Quote: Originally Posted by CaliaA07 We loved redbox!

Sometimes they're out of what you want but we have two close to each other so we just go to the other one. You can also go to redbox's website and rent them and then go pick them up! I love that. You can see what they have before driving all the way out there. We loveeeeeee redbox! Nice. Thanks for the info. I'm going to check out the website tonight!

Do youmean the Shoprite in Delran? That's actually the one we go to all the time. It's about 10 minutes down 130 from where we live. I've seen the Redbox..umm... machine thing in there but neer paid much attention to it. I've never used one of those things so I had no idea you could rent movies for $1. That's pretty awesome. Maybe I'll do that instead!!! Thanks for the info.

The Strangers or The Happening I want to put them both on my Christmas list for Brian's shopping. I really wanted to see both of them. I LOVE LOVE LOVE horror movies, but everyone says that they both sucked I still sort of want to see them though. I'm just wondering if it's really a total waste of money. I'm pretty sure I'm getting the 2008 version of Funny Games. Any other good horror movies come out on DVD this year? I never get to go to the movies anymore!

We only really have two traditions and I love both of them. The first is that we open one small gift on Christmas Eve and then the rest on Christmas morning. The second tradition is one that I introduced t Brian and had always done n my own. W each pick one name off the giving tree (those trees that have gift wishes from needy children) and buy a present. This year we get to do three - one for me, one for Brian and one for Aiden (my son).

We are doing it Thanksgiving weekend as usual. I tried to get Brian to set up the tree this weekend, but he said no way because it's too early. I totally know what you mean about being excited though, Christine. Even though Ainsleigh and Aiden have no idea what's going on and won't remember this, Christmas is like 1000 times more fun and exciting now. I wrapped a bunch of presents yesterday and Aiden is already trying to get into them and rip the paper off. It's going to be so much fun to see him destroy all the wrapping paper/gift bags. I'll have to break out the video recorder. Anyway, it's kind of good that we did wait, because I guess since he's crawling around and getting into everything, I have to buy one of those babygates to put around the tree. I just wish they weren't so ugly

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Gifts bags, they are easier to re-use. Also, this year I bought a few eco-friendly shopping bags and will use those for gift bags. 2. Real tree or Artificial? Artificial, but we may get a real tree one of these years because I want Aiden to have a "real tree" experience. 3. When do you put up the tree? The weekend after Thanksgiving. 4. When do you take the tree down? During the first week of January 5 . Do you like eggnog? Yuck. No! 6. Favorite gift received as a child? My Big Wheel! 7. Hardest person to buy for? My SIL. 8. Easiest person to buy for? Aiden, for sure. 9. Do you have a nativity scene? No. 10. Mail or email Christmas cards? Mail 11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? A sweatshirt with deers on it from my ex's parents. It wasn't just any deer sweatshirt, it was something about hunting... I'm a vegetarian... and totally against hunting. 12. Favorite Christmas Movie? National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation 13. When do you start shopping for Christmas?I start slowly around Sept/Oct 14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Yes 15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas?Desserts 16. Lights on the tree? Yes, Clear 17. Favorite Christmas song? I honestly hate Christmas music. 18. Travel at Christmas or stay at home? Stay local 19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? Maybe 20. Angel on the tree top or a star? A star. 21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? One on Christmas Eve, the rest on Christmas morning. 22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? Annoying shoppers. 23. What theme or color are you using? Eclectic 24. Favorite for Christmas dinner. Don't have a favorite. 25. What do you want for Christmas this year?I don't have anything that my heart is 100% set on. 26. Who is most likely to respond to this? Santa Worshippers 27. Who is least likely to respond to this? Satan Worshippers (j/k of course!)

That's funny about the initials. I'm not a huge fan of Bronx, but it's not the worst name I've heard, however, like you said Jamie, my main dislike for the name is that it doesn't flow well at all. Even if you leave out the middle name. Bronx Wentz is one of those names that just doesn't have a great sound when you pronounce it. Oh well. I do actually lie Ashlee Simpson. I think she's a cute girl. I'm am not a Fall Out Boy/Pete Wentz fan at all.

Bronx Mowgli Wentz?! That has a weird ring to it! Wait... Mowgli?!? Like in The Jungle Book?! That's awesome for them though.

I didn't likethis one as much as the OC one, but I did watch it! Can't wait to see the reunion. It looks like Lisa and Kim are no longer friends though from the previews.

The only things I'm really brand loyal to are cleaning products and detergent: method and seventh generation. Food, I usually, but there's not one specific brand I use for each. I rotate through brand names though. The stuff I always go generic on are canned/frozen vegetables (I just get the store brand), and stuff like plastic baggies, foil, plastic wrap, etc.

I think it looks great Calia! What kind of Soy Texturizer do you use? I'm looking to try a new one. Right now I use Beauty Without Cruely Spray Gel, but I haven't tried any texturizers yet.

I've seen Aldi stores while I've been out and about, but never really thought about them. I just assumed they were a regular grocery store, but never actually bothered to go into one because I have just always shopped at ShopRite. Anyway, I heard someone mention it on the radio this morning and she was talking about how she saves a lot of money by shopping there. As many of you can probably relate to, anything I can do to save money right now is appealing. So I looked at the website and I have some questions: Is this similiar to a wholesale store? Meaning, do I have to purchase items in bulk? Or can I purchase single items? Also, you don't have to have a membership or anything to shop here, do you? If you do shop at Aldi, or have ever shopped there what do you like or not like about it? Thanks for the info!

I was surprised by Whitney's behavior too. It was a bitchy move if you ask me.

I know. It's crazy how my beloved California is always on fire. I have family all over the state. Luckily none of them have been affected so far, but it's still scary!

Ditto what others said... looks like a lot of fun!

I LOVE Top Chef (and Survivor for that matter!)!!! I love that it's in NYC and totally think they should do next season in Philly. I think the biggest surprise on Top Chef was that I actually "know" someone! Ariane is a chef at Culinariane in Montclair NJ which is the town over from where my mother lives so I've eaten there a few times and have seen her around the place. That was pretty cool. The initial elimination was hardcore. That's definitely gotta suck. I would have bawled.

Sweet! I'm already married though Maybe I'll just invite him to Aiden's first b-day party! Woo-hoo!

I agree! There was a whole conversation about this on the radio this morning. People don't even put out flags anymore for Veteran's Day! To be honest, I totally forget it was today. For some reason I thought it was next week. Thank you to all those who have served our country and fought for our freedoms' and liberties, as I surely don't have the guts to do what they do!

Brian and I thought about moving to St. Thomas after we were there 10 days for our wedding. It's amazing! Love it. We still think about buying a house there, but honestly I don't think I could live there FOREVER. The island practically shuts down unless tourists are there and honestly, I like to go out a lot. There are hole in the wall joints that are still open though so I guess that's an alternative. The scenery is fantastic. But I think if we do end up buying property there it will strictly be a vacation home. Anyway, I'm rambling. I would go for it. I LOVE traveling and moving around. It's always nice to put yourself int different environments and get out of Jersey!

Yikes is right! Keep that snow in Colorado!!!! I'm not ready to break out the boots yet

Although I've already pretty much knew what I wanted to do since I graduated high school, I have to say, I don't think you're too old at all to start a program. There are lots of people in that program I'm in now going back to grad school because they had change of heart and wanted a new career. Hell, I am pretty certain that even after I finish up all my schooling and licensing to practie therapy, I'm going to go back to school again for another degree I'm interested in. Nothing wrong with that! (Well with the exception that I'll forever be paying back student loans).

You'll have to buy hosting since your previous site at that domain was hosted at Wedding Window. When you have your host, you'll then have to update your name servers in Go Daddy so the domain name forwards to the correct host.

LOVE IT!!!! And I'm morbid enough to totally dig the bloody bunny
