I really hope I can come up with 30 interesting things about me (interesting is in the eyes of the beholder, right?)
1. I was seriously into professional wrestling as a kid—watching it not doing it. I once even got Summer Slam on pay per view on a birthday once.
2. I can tell you the entire plot line to every Full House episode if you give me the intro.
3. I belong to a running group that runs with shelter dogs.
4. My favorite runs are when I cross into another state (PA to NJ)
5. I was first-chair clarinetist in high school.
6. I was a Big Sister to a 10-year-old last year.
7. My parents didn’t allow us to have any uncaged pets growing up, so I adopted my first cat at 22 on a whim. (Still have her—she’s 8 now.)
8. F. Scott Fitzgerald is my favorite author and I secretly hate Hemingway.
9. I have never watched Star Wars—any of them.

20. I LOVE rollercoasters and amusement parks.
21. Old-time photobooths are one of my favorite things—we’re having one at the wedding.
22. I haven’t been in a wedding party since I was 5 an a flower girl, but in 2012 I will be a bridesmaid in 3 weddings with a possible 4th.
23. I have never run more than 9.25 miles.
24. I’m taking up piano lessons at 29.
25. I really want to ride a motorcycle one day.
26. I have a mild obsession with buying shampoos, and it took my about 3 years to stop buying them and use all the ones I had up.
27. Tulips are my favorite flower.
28. Eating and drinking outside are my favorite summer pastimes.
29. All I want is a house at the beach.
30. I’ll be 30 in April.
I love that you are having an old-time photobooth at your wedding! how awesome is that?!
ReplyDeleteI think it's cool you met Davy Jones!
I used to think that The Olson twins looked like trolls when they were babies - it's amazing to me how pretty they turned out.
