If You REALLY Knew Me... Blah Blah Blahhhhh!

Let me start by saying... Who remembers that awesome outfit I tried to put together the other day? Anybody also remember how I got AWFUL cuts on my feet from those super cute wedges? Well, this morning I woke up with my heels itching SO bad and it sucked because I couldn't scratch thek, because if I did, well, it would just open my beauty battle wound and the cycle would continue. Cuts. Scab. ITCH! Re-open battle wound. And really, how attractive is gushing bloody heels? Anywho....

I have seen everyone and their mom [okay, maybe not EVERYONE'S mom, but i'm sure there are a few of them out there in bloggy land!] doing the whole IF YOU REALLLLLLLY KNEW ME thing... So, of course, like the original person I am, I decided to jump on that bandwagon. Because I am just that... original. Right? Right!


 

If you REALLY knew me, you would know that....


*I always wanted to be a teacher... But, I struggled in Math (hello, this teacher still counts on her fingers) & ended up failing freshman year Math. I continued to struggle until someone saw potential in me. My sophomore Math teacher wrote me a note telling me that I could succeed & he believed in meHe changed my life. (But, I still don't Math... thank god I don't teach it!)

*I'm a natural blonde... But, I change my hair color almost monthly.

*I am IN LOVE with Justin Bieber. No joke. Earlier this summer, when his new CD came out, I made Hubs go out to Best Buy as soon as it opened to buy the CD. If I wasn't married I would probably be the next Mariah Yeater Mrs. Bieber.

*I am OBSESSED with serial killers. Need to know anything about Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy? I'm your go to girl... Never know when you may need that useless amazing information the next time you're on Jeopardy!

*I get motion sickness. I once had to get off the FERRIS WHEEL at a CHURCH FESTIVAL because I thought I was going to throw up and/or pass out (come on, this was one tame crazy church festival. The ferris wheel was going at least 10 50 MPH).

*I am very sarcastic. To everyone. At any time. There are still times when Hubs isn't sure if i'm being sarcastic or serious.

 


*I want a baby MORE. THAN. ANYTHING. I'm trying to be patient & have faith that God will let me know when he's ready to bless me with one...

*I was a total frat rat while in college. My boyfriend (at the time) was a Phi Delt. My best friend was the Phi Delt president. My ex boyfriend was a Phi Delt. Oh yeah, and then I married a Phi Delt. See the correlation? I may have rocked those Phi Delta Theta letters more than my own sororities letters.

*I am directionally challenged. IN. EVERY. SENSE. OF. THE WORD. I can't get myself around Houston, let alone the city I grew up in.

*Fried Chicken creeps me out. So does anything with filling inside (jelly doughnuts, ding dongs, twinkies, anyone remember zebra cakes from back in the day??)

*My parents grew up next door to each other. They have been married for almost 35 years. My dad has 8 siblings and my mom has 7 siblings. All but two are married with 3+ kids. No one in my family has ever been divorced.

*I never had a job in college. I consider my job NOW as the first job I have ever had (Being a lifeguard for a summer in HS doesn't count.) I should probably play the lottery to pay off my gazillion dollars of student loans.







*I backpacked across Italy and was robbed 5 minutes after entering Milan, the first stop of our trip, before even leaving the train station. Talk about a big ole' bumma!

*I hate wine. SIIIIIKKKKKE! Did I have you fooled? No? Not even for a minute? 30 seconds? Okay, fine...

*I have to sleep with a fan on full blast. And not any dinky little ceiling fan. I mean a huge box fan that sounds as if a million semi's are driving around outside my window. I even bring it to hotels.

*My favorite animal is a Moose. Yes, you heard that correctly. I think they are cute and cuddly. Who wouldn't want one taking a snooze next to you? If you gave a Moose a muffin... [hence all the antler pictures.]

*The first concert I ever went to was the Dr. Dre and Eminem "Up in Smoke" Tour when I was in 7th grade. Did I mention that I went with two boys and the concert was 20 minutes away. Our parents had to bring us there & pick us up. Why in the world my parents let me go is beyond me.


Welp, THE END! If you made it all the way down here, you deserve a cookie. Or some wine... Wait, no, I'm not very willing to give up my wine, but you could always have one of those disgusting zebra cakes instead. GAG! YUM!

Did I tell you how much I love the Biebs? Oh, I did? Okay, well, I just wanted to let you know one more time in case you forgot from the beginning of this novel.

Aren't I lovely? This was in Venice, Italy

Someone should have told me that I overused that peace sign. And that duck face? Yeah, we already know that's not attractive. And um, who wears Uggs and a short skirt in the dead of winter [I even think there was snow that day]. Oh well, you live and learn, right?

  3. This is very funny stuff!! And no I didn't know any of this about you :) So the fried chicken I get, I never have been to KFC's actually because it just looks so discussing... (hope I don't offend anybody. But the stuffings?!! How can that freak you out?!! Haha you are so awesome!

  5. LOVE this! I am pretty sure sarcastic is my middle name. My friends seriously have the hardest time with me. Because every now and then, when I really am serious, they don't believe me!

    I just do not understand how you can hate Zebra cakes. Seriously they are awesome (not that I am suppose to be eating them on my diet or anything).

    Oh and it would probs be best to never put us in a car together...I am worse than directionally challenged. I would rather let someone drive my car then have to drive myself!

    Hope you have a great day:)

  7. Haha, I like this! I am directionally challenged too, it's ridiculous how much I still ask my husband where to go in/around our town. He says he is going to buy me a map for Christmas.

  9. Haha love all the pictures in this post! And that's so awesome about what a big family you have, and how no one has been divorced! That's definitely saying something. And I ALWAYS wanted to be a teacher too! I think I probably will still go in that direction, but ended up going in a completely different direction at the last minute. How do you like teaching?

  10. I love this! I would have never guessed you were a natural blonde. And the Biebs, I've got a little bit of the fever. I'm trying to teach Nathan to sing Boyfriend. I love that you take your fan everywhere!

  12. You don't like anything with filling inside? You don't like zebra cakes? Crazy! I get the fried chicken thing. I'm not the biggest fan of it either.

    I hated math too! But now that I teach it and have taken a butt load of trainings on how to teach, it doesn't freak me out as much. Not gonna lie though, the most exciting part
    About teaching first grade again is no more regrouping! YAY!

  18. My hubs is a Phi Delt too!! He was VP :)! And I may have dated a few other Phi Delts along the way too. All of my guy friends were Phi Delts and I may have rocked their letters a few times! What sorority are you in?

  20. I'm so glad that I'm not the only person obsessed with serial killers!! People always give me a crazy look when I tell them that haha. One of my biggest "to do" items when I went to London for the first time was to take a Jack the Ripper tour!
