Very popular, one of you is not enough. What Kind of Candy Are You?

My Interests

Talking and puppies.
You Are a Boston Terrier Puppy
Aggressive, wild, and rambunctious.
Deep down, you're just a cuddle monster. What Breed of Puppy Are You?ah, finally, my dad's side comes through - I can see it now.

I'd like to meet:

Meg Ryan and ask her why she divorced Denis Quaid and screwed up her face. She used to be my hero. Luke Wilson and ask if he'd like to go out on a date. Sorry Matt.Your mom. We might have something in common, I'm sure we could think of something to talk about. HEYOH!

Music:

Too many guilty pleasures to name -- I like most things but love a good singalong/rockout. CAN'T STAND Nickelback and hence don't like Daughtry either. I love nostalgia that comes with good tunes.

Movies:

Umm, ADVENTURES IN BABYSITTING! Tom Cruise pre-crazy, Best in Show, Waiting for Guffman, Guilty pleasures:anything unbearable from the 80's staring Kevin Bacon or Molly Ringwald or a leafy fall montage. HEYOH!!

Television:

Just hit me with some Family Ties. Don't get me started on T.V....we may be here all night. Oh, how I miss Friday Night Lights! Obsessed with Jon&Kate+8 and dig Little People Big World. Thank God for Golden Girls at midnight feedings, seriously.

Books:

I've given in to my nerdom and will give a cool reply of "HARRY POTTER!" and any chick lit I can find. I know, it's not "smart" but it's entertaining okay? I've also given in to books on CD for my daily commutes (it saves minutes on your plan people!) In all actuality, I have no attention span for reading since I've been preggers. I'll keep trying though.

Heroes:

Right now, Matt is my hero - he's doing such a great job!!
You Will Not Be a Cool Parent
And that's pretty okay. While your kids may not think of you as a friend, they will respect you.
You know that kids need discipline and structure, and you're not afraid to give it to them.
Just be careful that your strictness doesn't lead to rebellion.
It's good to have standards and rules, but you don't need to have an iron fist when enforcing them. Would You Be a Cool Parent?
