The Rules
1. Tell 11 Things About Yourself
2. Tag 11 other people and ask them 11 questions.
3. Let them know you have tagged them.
4. Don't tag someone previously tagged.
Let's get started! Here are 11 {more} random things about me:
1. I have a weakness for fast food, which is probably the main reason why I had a hard time losing the baby weight after having Colin. French fries and ketchup? Don't mind if I do!2. At one time, I owned the cassette tape for Michael Jackson's "Bad" album. I also had a plastic card that stated I was an official member of the MJ fan club.
3. I love fruits that most people don't. Grapefruit, cranberries, tart apples... I love them all. The only fruit I'm not a huge fan of is mango, but I'd still eat it.
4. Yesterday I had a huge craving for oatmeal cookies, so I made some. They were amazing! Confession time: I let Colin eat some bits of cookie with breakfast this morning. What? They had oatmeal in them! ;)
5. Even though I have "lattes" as part of my blog title, I haven't had an actual latte in weeks. I drink brewed coffee in the mornings, and only splurge once in a while on fancy coffees. I sometimes miss working in coffee shops and getting to experiment with lattes and cappuccinos.
6. I realize I'm talking a lot about food. Ha. Okay, switching gears. I currently have no nail polish on my fingers or toes. Since I never have time to touch them up or remove polish, I've just been annoyed by trying to keep up with them and currently prefer to keep them clipped and unpolished.
7. I hate spending money, especially unnecessarily. When the hubs wants a new video game or the latest electronic thingamajig, he has to plead his case, and even then I cringe at the thought of spending our hard earned money on something we don't necessarily have to have.
8. I hate seafood. Have I mentioned that before? I don't really know why, I just think it's gross. Fish, shellfish... all of it. Yuck.
9. I firmly believe that Jesus Christ died for my sins and that this life is just a temporary existence. I believe that what we do here on Earth matters more than most people realize, and there will be consequences for our actions in the afterlife.
10. I love babies; especially my own. :) But seriously, I love reading blogs about babies, seeing photos of bellies and babies on Facebook, etc. Now that I officially have a walking, talking (well, kind of) toddler on my hands, I miss my squishy baby and want another one - stat. No, we aren't trying yet. Money is tight and we need to pay down some debt first. But if money were no object, baby #2 would probably already be on the way.
11. I have a strange sense of humor and can't help but LOL at movies like Bruce Almighty and Napoleon Dynamite. Depending on my mood, I can appreciate dry humor, slapstick, and the ever popular poop and/or fart jokes. I'm ridiculous, basically.
And now on to Kerry's Questions:
1. Do you have a special talent? Once upon a time, I sang in choirs and played the drums. Now, my talents include changing the diaper of a wiggly little boy and whipping up something for dinner out of a seemingly bare fridge and pantry.
2. What is something you know you are bad at? Saying exactly what I feel. I tend to be a people pleaser and have a hard time expressing when something upsets me. I would rather "grin and bear it" rather than be honest about how I'm feeling.
3. What is your natural hair colour? Mousy brown. I dye it a similar color, but a shade lighter or darker (depending on the season and my mood) to keep it shiny and bouncy.
4. Nightowl or early bird? I used to be a night owl pre-Colin; now I'm an early bird.
5. Do you have a bad or annoying habit? I laugh too much, especially when I'm nervous or uncomfortable.
6. Sweet or savoury? Sweet! I love sweets.
7. If you could have dinner with one celebrity who would it be and why? Oh gosh, that's a really hard one. I should probably say something really deep, or political or something, but in reality I'd love to meet Tom Hanks.
8. Who would play you in a movie? Maybe Katie Holmes?
9. What is your favourite Summer activity? Swimming in my in-laws' pool!
10. Do you sing in the car? Oh yes, all the time.
11. Aside from charitable donations, what would you do with a million dollars? Pay off my student loans, see the world, buy a new house, and have lots more children. LOL.
