Now You Know My ABCs

I’ve been seeing this pop up here and there on the blog world, and I’m uninspired for content today, so here are the ABCs of me!

(I keep it classy, yo.)

(A) Age: 28

(B) Bed Size: King!  (gotta fit the man and both dogs in there too!)

(C) Chore You Hate: Mopping the floors and cleaning the shower… ugh.

(D) Dogs? You know it!  My fur-beasties are the bestest!

(E) Essential Start Your Day Item: Lately it’s been Amazing Grass, but a good cup of coffee really gets my day set off on the right foot.

(F) Favorite Color: Purrrrrrrrple, obvs

(G) Gold or Silver? Silver all the way.

(H) Height: 5’9″

(I) Instruments You Play: Resisting the urge to make a skin flute joke…  I played the recorder in 5th grade, does that count? I wish I could play the violin!

(J) Job Title: Medical transcriptionist, and email coordinator for my yoga studio

(K) Kids: Are the most fun when returned to their parents.

(L) Live: Austin, baby!

(M) Mom’s Name: Carol

(N) Nicknames: Muppet, Raspberry Muppet, Mupp, PBD (for Purple Bird Dog… you’ll have to ask my dear friend La about that one! ;) )

(O) Overnight Hospital Stays? Nope, but I’ve been in the ER for over 4 hours before

(P) Pet Peeve: People who whistle when they say “s” words, super slow drivers, Sarah Palin

(Q) Quote from a Movie: “Shock me, shock me, shock me with that deviant behavior!”  (Anybody know that one?)

(R) Right or Left Handed? Righty

(S) Siblings: One much older half-sis, and one much older half-bro

(T) Time You Wake Up? This is not consistent, but we’ll say between 8-11 depending on the day.

(U) Underwear: Um… what?  Yes, I wear it.  Daily even.

(V) Vegetable You Dislike: Used to be beets, but I love them now.  I guess I’m not a big fan of radishes.

(W) What Makes You Run Late: Getting too involved with reading stuff on the computer and losing track of time.

(X) X-Rays You’ve Had Done: None personally, although I’m the proud owner of a doggy x-ray when we thought Lucy had a chewie lodged in her throat.

(Y) Yummy Food You Make: Um, hello?  I don’t make any not yummy things.

(Z) Zoo, Favorite Animal: MANATEES  <3

I’ll be back tomorrow with my Amazing Grass Challenge recap. Pick an item from the list and tell me your answer!  :)

    I’m behind in reading, but I too had to resist the skin flute joke. I actually had it typed and then deleted it in a rare moment of self-censoring. And I played the violin.
