My fancy bloggy friend Ixy over at Illusion gave me an award! Isn’t she the nicest?
So the deal is that I tell you 7 things about myself and pass the award along to 15 other bloggers. It’s really like a chain letter in blog form, but way more fun.
1. I hate clowns. Who doesn’t, really? I believe my hate-relationship began with Stephen King’s lovely bundle of joy, Pennywise from It. Then the more I thought about it the more I found them creepy until my fear went beyond clowns and into the realm of ‘anyone wearing excessive amounts of facepaint or a mask’. I do much better now, as I was once known to have fainted at the sight of a clown. I don’t do that anymore, but I do freak out.
2. Things that are meant to be creepy I generally find to be awesome. And sometimes cute.
3. I love ketchup on my mac & cheese and grilled cheese sandwiches. I don’t think it’s that strange to put ketchup on my grilled cheese sandwiches because people always eat them with tomato soup so it’s not really that different, but I have yet to find anyone who likes it on their mac & cheese. *sigh*
4. When I was in elementary school I was one of the last two kids in the Spelling Bee. Until I spell ‘knee’ as ‘nee’. To this day whenever I spell knee I think of my crushing defeat.
5. I dress like a bum most of the time. I’m constantly afraid that one day I’ll answer the door and it’ll be Oprah’s crew coming to show people how horribly I dress.
6. I could go to Disneyland once a month if I could. Ray would probably go insane, but I loooooooove it.
7. I really dislike that while pregnant I can’t eat sushi. I wonder if women in Japan abstain from eating sushi while they’re pregnant. I think not.
I’m not listing 15 bloggers because I know a lot that I read have just been awarded so I’m doing 5 that I haven’t done before. You should definitely check out their blogs!
I've never been to Disneyland. I love grilled cheese sandwiches and may decide to try my next one with ketchup in your honor! And I will gladly get down on one "nee" to accept your award! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAA Love it!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed the award :) The clown-triggered fainting really piqued my interest. You should do a post on the story behind that - it sounds interesting!
ReplyDeleteOh yay!!! This is my first ever award!! ;) Thanks so much!!
ReplyDeleteAs to Disneyland, I lived and worked there for 8 months, and I still have withdrawals ;) Hahahahahaha
Hey, thank you for the award/link!! You rock.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE, love sushi. I was a "good girl" and didn't eat any of it while preggers. While in hospital after Norah was born, hubby brought some to me. Doc happened to swing by while I was making love to some spicy tuna rolls. While stuffing my face, I made some comment about missing the stuff for nine months to which my doc replied, "I don't have any objections to eating sushi during pregnancy." Well, Hell.
Love your list. I need to get my butt in gear and post! With the return of hubby, Spring Break and tax season at work, I have had very little time for writing!!!
Blog love to you,
Jen
Thanks, Kari! I just saw your message as I opened my computer this morning. I am very honored to receive the award!
