I have rejoined the ranks of the "in-crowd" and am finally participating in Spin Cycle again!! It's about dang time!!! So this week the ab-fab, Jen (The Queen of the Spin Cycle) has given us free reign by giving us the subject, "What If."
I've thought long and hard (read: 5 minutes here and there) about what to post.
I tried to think of specifics but I don't know. I've gone through some garbage, but it's brought me where I am. So I'm going to share a few what ifs- cause and effect!
What if...
I was an only child? I wouldn't have my amazing siblings. But I would have lots more stuff!!
I never joined the choir? I wouldn't have met some of my most amazing friends from high school and my first love.
I never met my first love? I wouldn't have gotten to go to Prom my freshman year.
I never went to college? I really have no idea. Would I have a job?
I never broke up with my ex? I would have been in a verbally abusive marriage, probably divorced, and completely miserable.
I never got my Explorer (her name was Emma)? I wouldn't have had so much fun driving my dream car!! I also probably wouldn't have been in as much debt.
I never took the Customer Satisfaction job at MBNA? I wouldn't have found out that recruiting is truly my calling.
I never found my current position? I would have lost my job 2 years ago.
I never bought my house? I'd be homeless.
I never started blogging? Perish the thought!!!!!!!!!! I can't imagine it now!!!!
So there are some random what ifs. I think our whole lives are filled with choices.
What if I have a peanut butter sandwich instead of soup? Peanut butter gives me heartburn.
What if I go to bed an hour later? I'll be tired.
What if Grey's Anatomy was based on real life (yes, I'm watching Grey's right now, why do you ask?) Actually I have some friends in med school and some of it could be!
What if I didn't have DVR? Ohmygosh, I don't think I could deal with using the VCR again.
What if my cat could talk back? Oh I can't imagine the crap she would tell me!!
What if there really were vegetarian vampires? I finished the series, read the online excerpt of Midnight Sun, but still haven't seen the movie!!
What if I couldn't go to BlogtheRockies this summer? Nothing will stop me!!
What if C-A-T really spelled DOG? Bonus if you know that movie quote!!!

I honestly don't know what I would do without my DVR! Sad isn't it? My kids will be watching a tv show and as soon as the commericals come on tell me to skip them! At least they miss all the subliminal brainwashing for new toys!!! : )
I'm watching Greys too! I cannot believe you also worked at MBNA! I remember when they told us they were closing our branch, half of me thought I'll be out of a job. The other half thought Yay! You have great "What if's"!
You're linked!
Peanut Butter gives you heart burn. What a bummer!
Never, EVER wonder "what if" you didn't have a DVR! Also, there will be no "what if" about blogtherockies this summer. Oh, it's on. It's fo show. Can't wait to see you IRL!
If Grey's Anatomy was based on real life, I would hunt Meredith down and slap the snot out of her.
Seriously.;)
My life was a lot like Grey's at one point, it wasn't a good thing.
Soup is so much better for you than peanut butter.
love the what ifs. you are such a postive person.
Can not wait to meet you. I promice to be nice....
Dude, we live on peanut butter. that sucks.
I don't know the movie quote, but I liked the glimpses into your life! Prom as a freshman, ooh, la la! (Wink.)
What's Midnight Sun???
And do you remember what a total pain in the rear it was to program your VCR??? I think I only managed to do it correctly a couple of times. Yeesh.
"whatif" Greys Anatomy was never on t.v.??? *gasp*!!! What would we do with our Thursday nights???
Look at you, spinning again. Great what if's. I think I would die without my DVR. I know it's a bit dramatic but it's true.
Peanut butter, huh? That's why you are a chocolate chip or raisen cookie right.
It's better to have loved and lost, then never have loved at all.
what if there was no internet?! We all would never have met--perish the thought! love this blog :o)
Friend, if there really are vegetarian vampires and Edward really does exist...my husband is in BIG TROUBLE. :)
I'm stringing the books out, about to start the third!
I'm sure glad you started blogging! I can't imagine what if!!!!!!
i so want to go to blogtherockies. just not sure if i can! you lucky lucky lucky girl!
What if my head is spinning? Great answers.
I blog therefore I am. ;) I also have a love affair with my DVR, shh, don't tell my husband.
Crap, I could never go back to using a VCR..in fact I don't think I have one that works.
Whoa, all of your what-if scenarios made my head explode a little bit in my... head.
I couldn't live without my DVR. Life would be so sad.
Great list!
