Guilty ;)

* You're picking your teams for the NCAA tournament (men or women) and you start picking teams based on them having a chapter there, regardless of their seeding...yes, I've done this this year, too :)

I TOTALLY do that, too! :)

You haven't talked to a sister in a long time (even though you live in the same city), but you hear that she's going through a rough time with her BF......you immediately call her, and schedule an all girls' pizza and a movie night.

--no matter how long it's been, you still have the bonds of sisterhood!

* you wonder if your neighbor might be an ADPi since she has a dog named "Diamond"

*You are doing a daily "lawn check" to see if any violets are up yet, so that you can make either violet ice cubes or violet jam!

*You don't have ChemLawn (to your neighbors' disapproval) due to the above!




ChemLawn left me a note once, stating that I have wild violets in my yard, and needed their services, please send the card back to them. I wrote "Horrors! And here I thought they were beautiful!" on the card and sent it back!

* the second you hear "Alphie" you automatically think of ADPi. I was talking to my younger sister on the phone the other night, and she asked me "Have you seen Alfie?" (referring to the movie) and I said "Yea! I have a ton of Alphies!!!" LOL Confused, she asked me how I had a ton of Alfies...

I had to later tell her that I hadn't seen Alfie the movie.. but my sorority mascot Alphie :p

Last Sunday I traveled to a singing near Tuscaloosa, and saw tons of wild violets!!!!! I was going to pick some to plant at my house, but then I thought, "I'd better leave them in their natural habitat so that others can enjoy them too" (plus I'd probably kill them anyway)

I do NOT have a green thumb at all - these are wild violets!! But, these same violets can be picked at peak season, and made into ice cube with violets in the center, crystallized for cake decorating, or violet jam.

* your pet dresses up as a lion for halloween.

Yep, I don't even have my own dog yet, but I definitely plan to dress my future fluff up as a lion come Halloween!

*Your roomie has dressed her child as a lion for Halloween.

*You go on vacation, and decide to do a little hour touring (this may be a place to which you will move). When you see the model home all done up in Azure Blue & White, you take photos from every possible angle, for your own use!

*You have then taken said photos to a paint center, and tried to make the exact color for your walls!

*everytime you go to Michael's craft store you buy all of their small wooden lions and all of the small rectangular shaped wooden boxes with the diamond on top (you can never find them when you need them, better stock up, :D )

*the only paints you own are blue, white, and violet

I also waited as long as I could to cut my grass. Those beautiful wild violets are all over my yard. I picked some and my husband said I was acting like a little girl. I said nope I am acting like an ADPi. (I know sounds hokey but it was fun)

We're doing Jewel Degree on Friday, and I'm making the punch. Do you think that the ice ring will contain a few hundred violets? :D

Now, to decide on punch recipes...!

* When buying a car you take into consideration if the color will look ok with your ADPi bumper stickers

GOOD NEWS!!!!!!
I placed an order with Gift Mart today (love you, Ellen!!!!!) and there's a new bumper sticker: a magnetic Euro-style one!!!! Needless to say, it got added to my "cart", as it will go with ANY car!!!
