My lovely friend Kim from
"Life is... tagged me in a "Getting to know you" style quiz. Anyone remember 8th grade when you emailed one of these chain letters on a daily basis? No? That was just me....oh well. I'm a sucker for 'em, so here we go again
There are five rules:
1. Post these rules.
2. Post a photo of yourself and 11 random things.
3. Answer the questions set for you in the original post.
4. Create 11 new questions.
5. Tag 5 friends and go to their blog/twitter and tell them that you've tagged them.
Okay, step one, a photo of myself:
A picture of my hubs and I circa 2007 that was recently sent to me. Ahh to wear a size 6 again....moving on....
Step 2: eleven random things about me:
1. I have an unhealthy obsession with cleaning products. I've recently forced myself to cool it down quite a bit, but, oddly, I love browsing the aisles in Target to see what new, wonderfully scented, miracle product they've come out with now.
2. I don't really like cooking. Or baking. I don't mind it, but I don't really enjoy it. I've discovered what I love is SERVING great food to people. The actual process of getting there, not so much. This is actually a fairly new revelation to myself I discovered when I began to dread that 4:30, time to start dinner time of day.
3. Pentel RSVP ink pens are my absolute favorite writing utensil. (Hey, you asked for random)
4. I don't really like yougert. I eat it almost daily. It's healthy. Would much rather have ice cream. Or french fries.
5. I don't like the greeting time at church on Sunday mornings. I'm too introverted. It always just makes me feel awkward, and I am inwardly having a panic attack every time they announce it until it's over.
6. When I was in high school I was nominated by several classmates at the end of my senior year as the biggest slacker of our class. I still maintain that they were just jealous becuase they didn't plan ahead and take all their senior level classes a year early so they could finish off high school with a year of easy electives.
7. I only put on makeup a few days a week. Not worth my time anymore.
8. About 50% of the time I'm driving, I wish I had a new car. The other 50% of the time I swear I'm going to drive my car until it has over 200,000 miles on it and no longer starts in cold weather.
9. I'm an impulse buyer.
10. I have wide feet- I hate shopping for dress shoes and cute sandals.
11. I'm really bored of trying to come up with random things about myself.
Questions from Kim:
1. What is your favorite season and why? Fall! I love the anticipation of the holidays and all the warm smells.
2. What is your favorite movie of all time? Rent. Chris and I went to see it for our first date EVER and as a result, it will always hold a very special place in my heart.
3. Do you still have your tonsils? Yup
4. What was your first car? A 1992 Pontiac GrandAm...baby blue, grey cloth interior.
5. How did we meet? Living Hope Church
6. What is the #1 guilty pleasure song you have on your
iPod, iPhone, MP3 etc? I don't have any music of my own loaded on my iPhone, but my iPod (which I haven't used in years) has every Britney Spears album ever created.
7. Would your dream vacation be to the beach or the mountains? Beach!!!
8. If money wasn't a factor, what would your dream job/career be? I'm doing it...but I would do it MUCH more part time (one 4 or 8 hour shift per week) and otherwise be a SAHM
9. What is your favorite snack? Chili Cheese Fries
10. If you were going to paint your living room, what color would you choose and why? maybe tan?
11. What is the one item in your home (excluding people or pets) that you would save first if there was a fire? Benton's baby book and my wedding album (I can say both becuase they are right next to each other on the shelf, there's no way I would grab just one.)
Okay, I'm not going to create 11 new questinons and tag friends, mainly becuase most of my blogger friends who would actually do this have already done it. I'm lame like that.
