10) Which of your pets was still alive?

11) Who was your boyfriend/girlfriend?

NOW: My husband :) 

12) Who was your celebrity crush?  
THEN: Sean Bean.
NOW: Probably Gareth David Lloyd at the moment

13) Who was your regular-person crush
THEN: I’m not sure I had one. It would rather have required friends/talking to people - which I sucked at

17) Had you smoked cigarettes?
THEN: No.
NOW: Still no.

18) Had you got drunk?
THEN: No.
NOW: Yes, although never so much as to fall over or forget what I’m doing/saying.

19) Had you DRIVEN?
THEN: No, no one in the family even had a car.
NOW: Yes, passed my test three years ago.

20) If so which car?
THEN: -
NOW: Currently my car is B reg Renault 5, it also currently doesn’t go anywhere as I need to fit it with a new section of rear exhaust.

21) Looking back, are you where you thought you would be in 2008?
Insofar as things like having graduated uni, learnt to drive and got a job, yes. However I didn’t expect that I would be married or that I would have an office job and a mortgage. I thought I’d be off digging on archaeological sites across the country, never really living in the same place for very long, and I hadn’t considered the whole falling in love thing.

I suppose I could still have the archaeology part, I’m qualified in it and I did work in it for a while, but it doesn’t seem fair on Fin for me to get a job that would keep me away from home so much, and I guess it’s the only reason that I’m not working doing the job I trained for. I know I’d like both really Fin and the job, but I guess I made my choice, and I’m not unhappy with it.
