i was tagged by jeri and lacey to complete the survey going around… here we go!
the rules are:
1.) fill it out
2.) change one question with one of your own
3.) add an additional question
4.) send it to 3 people.
i’m a cheater and going to break most of these rules. the girls had a couple different questions so i just added them on, but none of my own. i also am going to tag any of you who want to answer some questions about yourself today!
1. what are your current obsessions?
running of course, twitter, my iphone, taper and trying not to go crazy (i can already feel it happening)

jeri – just found her and her blog through twitter!
lacey – love this girl’s enthusiasm, her comments always get me very excited from the CAPS and exclamation points!!! YAY!
6. what is one item you could not live without?
item….sadly lately it has become my iphone – i have become one of those people that walks around with it glued to their hand and is constantly checking everything… email, facebook, twitter, the weather, you name it.
7. vacation spots you must visit before you die?
hawaii is my favorite vacation spot. i also have ALWAYS wanted to go to the east coast and drive up and down the whole thing visiting all the states. there is those places like tahiti too if i could get over the long flight aspect of it.

***********************************************************
what is going on with this crazy weather? its supposed to be 80+ this weekend (gag) but so far this week it’s been realllly windy and not warm. last night i headed out for my easy 5 miler from work and decided to bring my long sleeves even though i didn’t think i would need them. good thing! i saw a big black cloud coming my way but didn’t really think much about it, there was no rain in any of the 5 weather forecasts i follow.
wrong.
a couple miles in i started feeling some sprinkles. then it was a downpour. then it was hailing – hard! that stuff hurts! it was fun though, i always enjoy a rainy run
i was soaked when i got back to my car.
5.0 miles/44:21/8:52 avg pace
happy april 15th! being a CPA this time is always a big deal even though i am out of public accounting now














I love the questionare!!! So many fun facts I didn’t know about you
Way to go with running in hail!! You are hardcore Aron!!!
Loved learning fun facts about you. I laughed at the socks under the covers…I do that too!
Ouch! great job sticking it out with your run!
I dont wear socks to bed but sometimes my feet are so cold i do, then half way through the night I take them off… and then I am to hot.
Haha my dad is a CPA too! I sent him an email saying “happy tax day” haha.
Loved reading your answers! I am addicted to go lean crunch and my iPhone too!
It’s always fun to learn more about you! Fun list.
“i wear socks to bed and then take them off while i sleep, so there are socks underneath the covers all the time and it makes chris crazy.”
I TOTALLY do this! Hahahahahaha!
Yeah, crazy weather lately…I’m so glad it’s gonna warm up soon!
Love your answers!
You’re hardcore running through hail – ouch!
The sock thing must not be too weird cause I do that TOO. We just generally don’t tell anyone til someone tags with with a question and we have to fess up. LOL. Bummer you got caught running in the rain and hail. You are hardcore Aron! The hubby was down your way and said that he washed his car then it rained. I thought of all you bay area folks who were probably surprised.
loved reading the list!! that is crazy about the hail!! lolol
happy 4/15!!!!!
Fun post.
Running through rain…hmm…lets just say I prefer the snow:) Ana-Maria
See, I always find these so interesting when it comes to other people but just think I’m boring. I’m glad to hear I’m definitely not the only one with the socks to bed habit.
there are a few pairs of socks under my covers, too, because I never remember to take them out until laundry day.
Sorry about the rain/hail! I think you have our weather all of a sudden!
baby mama.. so cute. Love that movie. Especially when they are in the lamaze class. : )
Running in the hail. Can’t say I’ve tried that yet. Sometimes I wear socks to bed too, but then my feet get hot and feel like they’re suffocating, so I take them off. Then Ken finds a sock surprise when he changes the sheets. Yes! I have a husband who actually changes the sheets!
Running in the hail…yea, that had to have sucked!!
I just got onto twitter…not sure what I think about it. But I opened another account where I tweet about my cube neighbor…his every move. It keeps me and my friend entertained! this guy is too much.
Oh yeah, golean is like health-nut crack! LOVE that stuff! And lol cause I do the same with my socks and my hubs hates it too!
I’m with you on #18! It gets so hot after awhile. I have a nice little pile going on in my bed LOL
Happy tax day! I can’t stand wearing socks to bed, even if my feet are freezing.
Great post! I’ve enjoyed learning all kinds of tidbits about everyone lately – fun!
There’s no accounting for some public…
Nice post!~
Love your answers!
Too funny that you eat so many eggs. I went through a stage like that where I ate the, so often I got sick of them and could not even be in the same room as an egg for months! lol
Happy Tax day!
I totally do the socks thing too! I’m glad I’m not the only one!
I love learning facts about people- thanks for sharing
Ps- I wear socks to bed and take them off in the middle of the night too! I have never had a boyfriend who wasn’t driven crazy by it!!
Ahh…I totally do the sock thing too. There’s been a couple of times I must be too tired or still asleep when I remove them at night b/c I’ll wake up cuddling with them on my pillow. Yuck. :p Nice rainy run!
I heard Diablo got snow last night – CRAZY!
I will go to bed with socks on and then take them off too. How funny. It looks like a lot of us do that.
Tapering = INSANE Jo Lynn! I hope you enjoy yours more than me. ;(
I like these questionairres. They’re a good way to “get to know” people.
I totally do the sock thing too!!!! I thought I was the only person who does that!!!!
Fun list! Happy Tax Day.
We are kindred spirits, oh warm running weather hater!
The weather had better cool waay down in two weeks. I’m just sayin’..
I am so on board with the sock thing. I try to do it less now since we have a dog that finds all the socks (yes, she sleep under the covers with us) and chews them up!
Weather is supposed to be warmer here this weekend too but man it was freezing last night, I woke up to frost on the ground and windshield.
that was really fun to read! the socks thing is very funny- i hadn’t heard of that before. happy taper!
Very cute; I am totally stealing it! I do that sock thing too and it drives my husband up the wall! When we stayed at our in-laws house, after we left my mother in law found three pairs of my socks in her guest bed…oops!
Love all your answers to those questions! And I agree the weather has been seriously whack! It has been so sunny the last few days but then you go outside and its like a wind storm!!
I love your answers girl! So funny! I totally do the same thing with the socks.
I love your happiest moment. So cute. I acutally went ‘AWWW’ outlound
Great running too.. your training has been intense. I give you props girl!
Oh and as for the weather… just be thankful your not in Michigan. One day its 52 and rainy, next day its 68 and sunny, next day its 43 and snowing. WTH?!?!?!?
Hail?? Yikes! That’s so hardcore, even if it wasn’t planned!
It was fun to read your answers…matching cave girl costumes would be awesome!
I clearly haven’t been paying close enough attention. An 80+ week?!?!. Whoa. I’m in awe…even though I aspire to be at 100+ by the end of the year. Maybe I’m just jealous you beat me
Hey!!, I have become also an Iphone addict!!, and now that i am discovering Twitter, I am becoming a Twitter addict too!!
Bad bad bad, but I understand you!!, it is difficult to not fall!!

OK, so when you run Boston next year you and Chris can take some extra time off and explore the East coast.
I wear socks to bed too!
Thanks for sharing!
LOVE #18 – I do the same thing
LOL. Oh, the weather forecast! I guess I really wasn’t paying attention.
I share your iphone feelings. I think mine is my “life accessory.” Love it. Too much.
Good luck on the remainder of the taper!
~carpeviam
I sometimes do that with socks, too!! Especially during the winter when my toes get cold!
It’s funny that I’m reading Advanced Marathoning today too…must be something about that book and tapering…
And don’t get me started about weather tracking…I think I just might go crazy trying to track a certain storm pattern in the Northeast on April 20th…
Tax email!? Oh dear…..
Thanks for sharing, I keep reading about twitter, I am afraid to adopt another addiction!
That’s so funny – I don’t wear socks to bed but I totally should; my feet are always icicles when I go to bed and it drives Brent crazy!
That is a great list! That is also why I’m totally terrified of Facebook. My friends keep yelling at me to get on but I’m just skert! I don’t need any more addictions…I’ve got enough!
The sock thing to bed is soooo ME to!!!! I don’t slip them off, but I have to have socks on my feet when I go to bed. We be sista’s!
darn internet. I commented and it got lost. Basically, the gyst of my comment was that I also love Hawaii
The weather is insane isn’t it? Winds at 40mph, and 57…then supposed to be 80 the morning of the Half.
Crazy.
The sock thing made me laugh!
OH, and I gave up Facebook, but Twitter is my new bff!
Ha, I do the sock thing sometimes too. I love these posts, so fun!
Crazy about the hail!
Fun questions!
loved your Q&A. i noticed a trend with the iphone… crazy about the hail! way to tough it out – i would've abandoned the run.
I do the sock thing too! hehe
HAIL was crazy! I was like what is this!?! Glad I brought a long sleeved as well!
