The ABC’s Of Me
“ABC. Easy as, 123. Or simple as, do re mi. ABC, 123, baby, you and me girl!” – Jackson Five
Man I love that song. Ah…Michael, you are missed.
Okay, Michael Jackson has nothing to do with this post because duh, it’s about me. Your favorite person in the world!!! Well, I like to think so.
Anyways, I caught some of the blog fever over the weekend and thought I would share my ABC’s. Hope you enjoy!
A. Age: Just turned 28! Man that sounds old:(
B. Bed size: Queen, which I hate. Mr. B loves to snuggle at night and I don’t. So I end up trying to scoot away to find space. Needless to say I don’t get very far.
C. Chore you dislike: All. Although I would say dusting and paying bills is high on the list.
D. Dogs: Nilch. I don’t even have a goldfish. But if I could choose, it would definitely be a bulldog!
E. Essential start to your day: COFFEE and eggs. Well in general just breakfast because it’s my favorite meal of the day.
F. Favorite color: Green or purple depending on the mood I am in.
G. Gold or silver: Um…silver. Gold reminds of Jersey shore bro’s with hairy chests. Gross.
H. Height: 5 foot, 6 inches – I am average. What can ya do?
I. Instruments you play(ed): Well, I attempted to play the flute, piano, and guitar but I have a short attention span. I wished I had the patience to play a musical instrument but I don’t.
J. Job title: Senior Associate. I wish my job title was: The girl who shoots spaghetti from her fingers. Wait. That’s a long super hero name.
K. Kids: Chuckle. Ah, may be someday.
L. Live: In Denver, Colorado. The Mile High City. Queen City of the West. Queen City of the Plains. Wall Street of the West. Gateway to the Rockies.
M. Mom’s name: Geri. A.K.A. – The Moomers
N. Nicknames: LG, L-Dub, Lauren Rae Boogie Jones, Flossy-Belle
O. Overnight hospital stays: I have never stayed overnight at a hospital. Thank God. But, I have been to the hospital for breaking both of my wrists when I was seven and then again when I dislocated my shoulder snow skiing two years ago.
P. Pet peeves: mouth breathers, ignorance, people who use the stall next to you in a public restroom when there are fifty stalls open, people who can’t merge in traffic, people who don’t move when you say excuse me…..I could go on forever!
Q. Quote from a movie: “This is a very complicated case, Maude. You know, a lotta ins, lotta outs, lotta what-have-yous. And, uh, lotta strands to keep in my head, man. Lotta strands in old Duder’s head. Luckily I’m adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug regimen to keep my mind limber.” – The Big Lebowski
R. Righty or lefty: Right handed. But I can bat left handed.
S. Siblings: John – older brother, Jordan – younger brother. I love my bro’s.
T. Time you wake up: Weekdays….6:00am, 6:15am, 6:30am, 6:50am. Weekends….favorite time to wake up, 9:00am.
U. Underwear: I wear HUGE Grannie panties. Just kidding. Pretty normal in this department, thongs and boy shorts.
V. Vegetables you dont’ like: Is cilantro a vegetable? Because I would rather eat dirt then have cilantro near my plate.
W. What makes you run late: My husband. No, I’m kidding. I am always 5 to 10 minutes early to everything. Yeah, I am one of those people.
X. X-rays you’ve had: See letter O’s answers.
Y. Yummy food you make: See my recipe page! But my favorite thing to make is probably pork tacos! Delish!
Z. Zoo animal favorites: I’m sorry but this question is lame. Really, a zoo animal? What are we 12? If I had to choose it would be the hippos because they are so fat!
Well…what do you think? Learn anything new?
I'm pretty sure you are about to block me from your blog because I'm crazy but this just confirmed to me that we were seperated at birth. Here's why: If I were going to get a dog: bulldog, fo sho, time you wake up thing…hilarious and true,vegetables: cilantro is offensive, it's terrible! And just when I'm thinking, funny, we have a lot in common you mentioned pork (I'm a vegan who loves pig, what of it?) AND Hippos! Amazing. And fun.
Love this post! Just might have to steal the idea and do it on my blog:) Funny that you hate cilantro because I absolutely LOVE it!
TW – I think you are right. We were really separated at birth!!!
K – Go for it! I had a ton of fun coming up with answers:)
I think this is one of my favorite blogs! Funny!! It's just so vunerable and human and you. Sweet.
Love ya, Moomers
Who hates cilantro?!?!
I find the cilantro comment super offensive. And, I love the zoo. Drew and I try to go whenever we visit a new city. Once we saw a hippo poop. Horrifying. Yeah, that was in Wichita.
AND I'm going to jump on the bandwagon and say that I'm totally stealing this idea.
I didn't realize there were so many cilantro lovers out there! My apologies! Don't worry, I won't keep it out of Foodie Fridays!
Yeah, she wasn't really joking about me making her late…
