2. I love musicals, I often wish my life was filled with musical conversations and choreographed dancing
3. When changing the volume in my car, the number always has to be an even number
4. I don't like odd numbers, unless they are multiples (5, 10, 15 or 3, 6, 9)

10. I have a fetish with being on time. I usually know how long it takes me to get somewhere and leave a minute or two before that to get there
11. I usually hold people to this same expectation, which isn't usually met, or fair of me to expect it

47. There are only 2 stalls of 5 that I am willing to use in the women's bathroom at work
48. Crying always makes me feel better, no matter what my mood is

I. LOVED. THIS. LIST! Really, it was so fun to read. Some of those things I didn't know about you. I am glad you still want kids and we haven't ruined you!
And I love your eyes too!
Wow! You finished it!! That was great. For informational purposes, we correspond on: 3, 8, 9, 17, 24, 30, 43 (also putting on clothes directly from the dryer), 57 (and my bed), 59, 65, 69, 71, 75, 76 (remove the words, "just about"), 77, 86, 87, 93, and 101.
Super Girl--you are a beauty and have pretty eyes!We're proud of you in many ways--like loosing 40 lbs. You do impress us and I hope you know we love you as well as Heavenly Father does!!!
You're wonderful Jill. I LOVED reading that list! I feel like I can copy and past about 80% of it and put it on mine... but that would be plagiarism. We are too much alike! One question (well, actually... there are many, but I feel like I have to sit down with you while reading the list to ask you them all...): Did you break up WITH your best friend, Jessica? Let's never do that, okay? Okay.
*OH: and THANK YOU for today. really. thank you. the end.
Jill, this post impresses me. I wish I could think of 101 things about me. Maybe that will be my next project at work. Your the best! I love you!
101 things it's a little hard hu? You lost 40 pounds and look great good job love you!
You are beautiful inside and out... and brave, and smart, and disciplined and have beautiful eyes and teeth and hair, etc. I loved reading this post. I feel like I know you so well, but still learned some new things. I wish you could see all the good that everyone else sees.

29. I have lost 40 pounds since last January... Jill that is AWESOME!!! Sweet list. I'm going to miss you after I am dead and gone next week. But don't worry I'll continue to blog-stalk.
Oh man... Backstreet Boys was my first concert too! You must have spent forever coming up with that list. We are so the same in some ways... like I am totally obsessed with school supplies too! I have so much and I am not even in school. I love to organize a new binder! And my closet is color cordinated too...
Jill, I have a confession. I didn't read this post until just now. I LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about this post! I'm going to try to do my own. I'm a little worried to do it. People will probably read it and think one of two thing: A) she is CRAZY! (Which I am!) B) She is hanicap!
(Which I also am!!!!)
Jill - I loved learning such fun little things about you. Probably one of my very favorite 100 things posts. I love your fantastic little quirks and love that you're a road-rager like me. Also - I am in love with Range Rovers and would kill for one. Lots of other similarities between us and lots of things that i really admire about you. I can't not comment about your fear of always being single, though. No way girlfriend!!! You're such an amazing catch and I have no doubt that your horribly romantic knight in shining armor is just waiting patiently for the right moment to snatch you up. (And, I'll be loving reading about it on your blog when it happens!)
Oh my gosh! I can't believe you don't like gum!! I'm so sorry you probably had to listen to me chomp and pop mine through all those classes together. You are adorable, that was so fun to read all those about you.
