Taggity Tag Tagaroo!

I was tagged this past week by two very sweet and lovely ladies, Eldarwen and Amber ( who have quite awesomely splendid blogs by the way that you should go visit)and I have to admit that usually I forgot to ever do these, or I procrastinate on them, or I just don't do them... I get impatient, or I say I don't have time, or I get bored with them, .... I'm not quite sure why.... ..But! Today is Monday... and I am feeling extra chipper at the moment ( perhaps it's the granola bar I just scarfed down, oh I heart my granola!)

Anywho, I am actually going to do one of these! I am turning over a new leaf folks! So bare with me...and I do think this will be quite interesting and fun =]

1. High heels or boots? gahh, would you be surprise to hear from a 6ft tall lady that I love to put on a pair of cute heels and teeter totter around? 'tis true, I have a thing for cute shoes, and for some reason am always drawn towards the ones that ironically have the 2in or more heels. ( and I'm such a clutz yet I still wear them!!) they tell me that a girl my height doesn't NEED to wear heels, " umm, excuse me? I can't hear you all the way up here, sorry, but I'm not gonna be left out!" but in the end my all time favorite is my well worn and comfy pair of riding boots. yeesss I even wear them when i am not riding.

2. What time did you get up this morning? well, I'm usually am up by 6:15am to get ready for class, make sure I eat something, and do a little reading or list making... but my brain was holding on so tight to the weekend sleepiness and I think I hit the snooze button twice... and didn't get up intil 6:45am(still made it to class on time!). I can be a night owl or a morning person no prob, although I tend to be more of a morning person ( no hatin'!)
