20 Things You Might Not Know About Me

4 Sep , 2014  

This blog post is a part of the ’20 Things You Might Not Know About Me’ Blog Tag started by April from Blacksburg Belle. She began this blog tag experiment to build community among creatives, help us bloggers to connect more and get to know each other better. This month’s topic is all about sharing just a little too much information about yourself. If you’d like to participate or want more info, check out the beginning post right here.

Yay!  Considering today is the very first day of this brand-new bouncing baby blog, let’s get this party started!  Shall we?!

Question 1: How tall are you?

I like to say I’m 5ft 5in, but it is entirely possible that I am closer to 5ft 4in.  If you repeat that, I will never admit to it.

Question 2: Do you have a hidden talent? If so, what?

I can scratch my head with my foot.  Gross, right?!  And I admit to this, because??

Question 3: What’s your biggest blog-related pet peeve?

As a reader, I would say that it makes me sad when posts don’t have pictures.  How am I supposed to pin it, people?!

Question 4: What’s your biggest non-blog related pet peeve?

Um, I think it would be when people accidentally bump into/step on you in a crowd and don’t even say they’re sorry.  Really?

Question 5: What’s your favorite song?

Roar by Katy Perry because it makes me feel like a warrior woman.

Question 6: What’s your favorite Etsy shop that isn’t yours?

With Wild Abandon because Mikel is so responsive and makes fabulous logos.  Check it out! icm_fullxfull.30399803_o9bj79ejeggscow48wk0

Question 7: What’s your favorite way to spend your free time when you’re alone?

Crafting spectacular cards with beautiful paper, stamps and, of course, glitter…lots of glitter

Question 8: What’s your favorite junk food?

I have a weakness for frozen yogurt.  I like to pretend that it is still a small size, even when I top it with chocolate chips and it towers 6 inches above the lip of the cup.

Question 9: Do you have a pet or pets? If so, what kind and what are their names?

Yes, I have an adorable 3 year old dog named Lily.  She is half Cocker Spaniel and Poodle, but I refuse to say, cockapoo.  Really, we couldn’t come up with a better name for it than that?

Question 10: What are your number one favorite nonfiction and fiction books?

Non-Fiction: You are a Badass by Jen Sincero.  It makes me happy every time I read it :)

Fiction: The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas.  I love soo many books, but this is one of the greats.

Question 11: What’s your favorite beauty product?

They’re Real! Mascara by Benefit

Question 12: When were you last embarrassed? What happened?

On Monday, actually.  As I was dropping my son off at day 3 of kindergarten, he decided that school was no longer his thing.  As the teacher and parents watched on, he took off running for the parking lot.  I was forced to chase him down and carry him to the classroom.  I don’t even want to know what was jiggling as I chased him down in a rayon dress.  Can you picture it?

Question 13: If you could only drink one beverage (besides water) for the rest of your life, what would it be?

In a world without calories, it would be root beer.

Question 14: What’s your favorite movie?

Labyrinth, why do I find David Bowie so hot?  He is dressed in tights throughout the movie, and yet…

Question 15: What were you in high school: prom queen, nerd, cheerleader, jock, valedictorian, band geek, loner, artist, prep?

I prefer girl genius over nerd, thank you very much.

Question 16: If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?

If I could transport everyone I love with me, I would move to Argentina.

Question 17: PC or Mac?

Just discovering Mac

Question 18: Last romantic gesture from a crush, date, boy/girlfriend, spouse?

Too long ago to remember, sigh

Question 19: Favorite celebrity?

Again, gotta go with Katy Perry

Question 20: What blogger do you secretly want be best friends with?

There are so many, but I’m going with Virginia from LiveLoveDIY

Thanks for letting me play, April!

Tag, you are it Blanca and Matti!

xoxo,

Jen

    Jen, you are seriously funny! Labyrinth . . . classic, right? But you’ve not felt it’s true impact until you see your grandchilden recreating some rather inapropriate scenes, (I didn’t think they were, until the kids rendition, :)) some of which nobody should have to endure! It is HI-larious!

    Keep up the good work, you are really onto something . . . so engaging! :)
    xoxoxo

    Jen – I love The Count of Monte Cristo, too! I haven’t found many people who have read the book but I think it was great! I’m gonna have to read it again, now.
