Without further ago, here are 30 indispensable facts about me that you were definitely dying to know.
1) I am deeply suspicious of lists that reveal personal information on the internet.
2) I've read War and Peace for fun. Twice. And Moby Dick. And Atlas Shrugged is next on my list because of Jen. (See also: nerd.)
3) If I had my life to do over, I'd be a professor at a university or a heavy equipment mechanic, with job prospects, job security, and pay grade inclining me towards the latter.

Hmmm I'm not nearly as cool as you so I don't think my list will come back to haunt me with my pets name, birthdate, and mother's maiden name.
ReplyDeleteHahaha right? I believe my direct quote was "0/10 WILL NOT PARTICIPATE" and here I am.
Deletei love how grumpy you are about doing this list but did it anyway
ReplyDeletedikdik jesus is life
Dikdiks definitely don't get enough love. So glad they've got center stage here.
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't doubt the drama in dancer circles! I think it's so cool you used to do ballroom dancing!!
Sadly the dancing days were before the proliferation of smartphones and quality phone cameras, so the media evidence is limited. :-(
DeleteI also always see Orion first! I never wanted to be a vet or trainer either... Ammie status forever.
ReplyDeleteOrion sighters unite!
DeleteYou had me at pie is overrated and then you became dead to me when you included cake in the same category.
ReplyDeleteI grant you that the berry chantilly cake from the Whole Foods dessert counter is divine. Dik dik jesus probably blessed it.
DeleteI learned a lot here. Some about you, mostly about dik diks. I've never heard of them before! **hides face in shame**
ReplyDeleteDik diks are the best.
DeleteI'm going to be real upset if you think beef jerky is overrated.
ReplyDeleteMy two main food groups are beef jerky and coffee. ;-) We're good.
DeleteBut do you feel that pasta and cheese go together, ie mac-and-cheese? This is important information that was not covered.
ReplyDeleteOh god. I could write a dissertation on the proper applications of cheese and pasta.
DeleteSee, I make KICK ASS homemade mac and cheese, both with chicken and bacon and without.
But sometimes I just super want the box mix.
I also make KILLER fettuccine alfredo from scratch buuuuut sometimes I just get the premade sauce and call it a day.
Lazy days mean literally shredded cheese (extra sharp cheddar plz) on top of hot pasta.
We haven't even addressed lasagna yet.
I should probably stop. I have a lot of opinions on pasta. And cheese.
I’m dead 🤣🤣🤣
