Meme you you

What was I doing ten years ago?April 24, 1998?
I have no idea. I have no memory for dates. I think I was dating Earl the Pearl secretly then - We didn't come out of the closet until he slapped me on the ass at Dairy Queen in front of our friends. Now that is love.

Five things on my To-Do list today:
Cook most of the party food.
Take a nap.
Kiss my daughter and sing Happy Birthday(She is 2)
Call stragglers and ask if they are coming to the party.
Make it to work on time.

Things I would do if I were a billionaire:
Pay off my BILLS.
Buy a house with a beautiful lawn.
Buy my Mom a house with a beautiful lawn and a cute man to take care of it.
Buy a car for each of my my sisters.
Oh and put some in the bank I guess.

Three of my bad habits:
Biting my nails
Some might say swearing but I like to.
Money
