More random facts!

Since it’s been a while that I did the 25 random facts about myself, I decided to be lazy today and just post some more! Lucky you.

1. I’m not quite five foot six. 5’5 7/8ths, and I’m sticking to that number. I like my height. I’m average or so I think I am. When I was 13 or 14, I wished to grow to 5’9″ which is ginormous to me right now. I’m the shortest one in my family: Mom is 5’10, Brother is 5’11 and three quarters, and my Dad is about 6 feet tall.

2. Unsolicited advice is never really a good thing.

3. We suck at soccer this year. What happened? Summer ’08 season we kicked ass and were in the top 5 teams overall. Winter we were in two leagues and we won the championships in both soccer leagues. This summer? We haven’t won a game yet. Yeah, we tied a few but that’s nothing. We haven’t won ONE. omg.

4. I have no idea how I blog everyday. It just happens. I rarely miss a day, and that boggles my mind. What do I talk about?

5. I need to pay myself more, and stop putting so much money into savings. I need an allowance too!

6. I love it when we dress up as a couple. There’s a wedding we’re going to in a few months, and I’ll have to buy a fall dress (because I never wear dresses and don’t have any besides black ones).

7. I have made enough money from paid blogging to buy a 1 year gym membership at a fancy gym. I will be purchasing the membership when I get back from British Columbia.

8. The key to my heart, is through my stomach. Feed me and I’ll love you forever. I’m such a guy that way.

9. I used to splurge on myself with getting my hair done, but now I’m all about pedicures, $20 pedi’s in fact and she’s so meticulous about it too, and takes foooorrever. But it doesn’t chip at all. It just grow’s out. That’s how good she is. I also hate painting my fingernails, but I do it so I don’t bite my nails. Nasty dirty habit that I thought I stopped after getting braces on, since it was impossible to bite them. But alas, I still do.

10. I just totally got the hugest papercut known to man-kind and it didn’t even bleed yet!?

11. I find it incredibly rude for people asking other people their ages. Especially mine. I was always taught to mind my own business. Respect your elders. Well elders, respect me too please! Co-workers, acquaintances, team mates: “Nancy, how old are you?” — If I answer them my age, I want to say “and you?” after. Is that appropriate? Or I could just say “That’s top secret” like all the other people used to say to me when I was a kid, before I got scolded. So, basically you’re not going to get to know my age. I don’t feel it. Act it. Or look it. I hate it, and am frightened of growing “older”.

Mobile blogging

I haven’t googled it, or done any research on it. But I think it would be fun to blog from my blackberry. Is this even possible? I’m sure it is. What if I’m out somewhere and my nerd-radar takes control and wants to snap a photo of something to show you? Or simply write a sporadic post. Cause that’s what I’m all about.

If that’s not foreshadowing, then I don’t know what is ;)

Ta-ta!

Dare to wear

hand

White nail polish.

Ok, let me explain. I get lazy with my nail polish and never keep a freshly painted manicured nail, because I seriously suck at painting my own nails and it takes forever to dry since I have no patience and glob it on so thick. Right now my nail polish is all picked off and cracked. Awesome right?

A woman at work came up to me and asked if I was wearing, or (get this guys) … WHITE. OUT. White out!

First of all I’d like to address the fact that I have not seen or used nail polish in about 8 years? Seriously? Does anyone still use the paint brushed white out? Isn’t there like a much easier way — with the “white out tape”. Amiright?

Second of all, does she really think I’d paint my nails with a bottle of liquid paper white out? Um, gross. I’m not in grade school any more. I can actually afford nail polish lol.

Thirdly, I would like to point out that this woman who asked me isn’t close to my Mother’s age, oh no no. She probably has 8-10 years on me. But that’s it. Get with the program woman! I blame it on her having children…boys in fact. No girls.

Of course, I corrected her on her assumption of the white out and said it was a polish. OPI Alpine White in fact, but she doesn’t need to know that. Honestly though, I’m not offended or anything. I’m just curious as to why she thought I would actually get a bottle of white out and paint my nails with it. I wonder what she’d say if I ended up wearing something like black polish. I should try it out.

Ooh. After work, I’m getting another pedicure. Squee! Mainly because as soon as I got my last one I ended up walking on a sandy beach the very next day… and you know what that looks like. Nastiness. Plus, it was a gross pale salmon/pink color and I mean. Hello? It’s summer. Time for some BOLD scorchin’ hot pink BABY!

See you all tomorrow!
