I'm loving bandwagons, and I'm hooting and hopperin' on this one!
It's my ABCs, everyone!
A. Age: 25. A quarter century. Had that lovely quarter life crisis. Or, have one everyday, it seems.
B. Bed size: Queen. Or Full. We're currently debating about this. It's all sixes, anyway.
C. Chore you hate: I asked Topher this question. His answer? Everything. I deny this- I derive great satisfaction from taking something dirty and making it spotless- things like bathrooms, even. That being said, getting started on any chore sucks. Especially picking up my room. Bleh.
D. Dogs: Yes! A little pooper I call Boom Boom Boomer!
E. Essential start to your day: Silence first. Then, 2 glasses of water. Finally, NPR's Morning Edition. Oh, Steve Innskeep.
F. Favorite Color: Yellow. Love it. Second favorites include green and pink. Yay.
G. Gold or silver: Prefer silver, but can appreciate gold's place in our world.
H. Height: 5' 8''
I. Instruments you play: None. Boo. I played the trumpet for two years, and I really, really need to learn the cello Toph gifted me for our wedding.
J. Job title: Program Director.
K. Kids: Someday- as in, 4-5 years from today.
L. Live: Gaithersburg, Maryland.
M. Mom's name: Cindy.
N. Nicknames: Topher calls me Plumpy (a reference to Love Actually.) It was funny until I actually began to feel plumpy. My dad called me Tiger growing up.
O. Overnight hospital stays: Just at birth. KNOCKIN' WOOD!
P. Pet peeve: Incorrect grammar or punctuation. Lordy.
Q. Quote from a movie: I have two favorites!
"That's my boat" - Forrest Gump
"Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit, bullshit!" - Forgetting Sarah Marshall
R. Right or left handed: Right.
S. Siblings: One, brother, 30, Colin. Best brother a girl could truly ask for- protective, hilarious, intelligent, kind.
T. Time you wake up: Between 7 and 7:50, depending on the day.
U. Underwear: Kind of obsessed with it, having hundreds of pair and all. Favorite brand is Body by Victoria- especially the super soft hip huggers. I don't discriminate on types, though I can't really stand thongs now. Who needs something up your butt when you can avoid visible lines with boy shorts?

V. Vegetables you dislike: Mushroom and eggplant. It's absolutely a texture thing here- the squishy, slimy texture drives me nuts.
W. What makes you run late: Breathing? I wish I could tell you, because I'm perpetually 5 minutes late. Le sigh.
X. X-rays you've had: Teethies!
Y. Yummy food you make: Anything that involves butter, brown sugar and chocolate can pretty much be combined and baked into something amazing in my kitchen.
Z. Zoo animal: I hate zoos. I think it's inhumane to keep animals caged. I do support preserves, like the San Diego "Zoo" and other locations that work to keep animals from extinction or the like.
Join in on the ABC's! And Happy Monday!
Also, what's your favorite Jackson 5 melody?
Seriously? It's disgusting how many times I said "me too" to this. Well, except for the grammar part. You should probably stop reading my blog. ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd I started to give the SAME answer to the zoo question but I caved. :(
Ha ha ha! I say that line from Forgetting Sarah Marshall ALL THE TIME. In that silly accent. It's just fun to say it! And yay for Steve Innskeep, although I must say I terribly miss Carl Cassell.
ReplyDeleteI love you.
ReplyDeleteAnd I can agree on most of these, I especially like the window of time you have for waking up.
I titled my blog for this post almost the exact way! :)
ReplyDeleteP.S. I'm extremely jealous of your height!
I LOVE THAT UNDERWEAR. Haha, that's sort of creepy, but that is by far my favorite underwear ever! Now I feel all proud that an underwear expert (you) has confirmed my opinion. :D
ReplyDeleteAlso: learn to play cello so we can play duets! (I play violin)
Loved this - you are too cute!! :)
ReplyDeleteLove it, and I'm glad I'm not the only one hitting my quarter of a century crisis - I turn 25 in two days!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely agree about the grammar - pronunciation for me is a huge peeve (it's spuh-cific not puh-cific!)
Happy Monday!
#1 my fav Jackson5 song is "I want you back," and #2, you totally live near me :)
ReplyDeleteI love that Topher calls you Plumpy a la Love Actually. Not sure it would be my favorite nickname, but it's too cute!!
ReplyDeletei love these, thanks for sharing! dude, you're 5'8". you lucky tall person, you.
ReplyDeleteI use that Forgetting Sarah Marshall quote A LOT. :) Also, this made me laugh: "What makes you run late: Breathing?" You are hilarious, my dear.
