I really have not had much to blog about lately other than training for the half marathon and, well, that's pretty much it. So I saw this on someone else's blog and thought it would give me somehting fun to post about. I think it's a "tag" type post, but instead of tagging someone just play along if you are so inclined!
Seven Random Things About Me:
- I hate to talk on the phone. When I get a voice mail at work, I cringe. And I stare at the little red light blinking and dread what the caller has to say. And if it's a call I don't have to return I'm SO RELIEVED. Silly, I know.
- I love to swim. I was on a swim team when I was younger, and I would swim every day if I could. Even in the winter (indoors of course.) My best stroke is the breaststroke followed by freestyle swimming. I was a horrible backstroke and butterfly swimmer. I'm jealous of those that can butterfly swim.
- I can make a MEAN lasagna. And an even meaner baked spaghetti. I think secretly I'm a very pale Italian.
- I can type extremely fast. About 85 words a minute. And fairly accurate too. My boss types with his index fingers and it DRIVES ME INSANE.
- I take pictures obsessively on my iphone. I've only had it a few months and I've already taken over 2,000 random pictures on it. It's ridiculous. But a fun hobby of mine I guess.
- I can speak in a British accent. Not a great one, but I can usually fake it for a few minutes until a really southern word comes up and then I screw it up. haha I also love the really deep South Scarlett O'Hara Southern accents. Where the words are draaaawn out. I love accents. (Still thinking about doing the accent vlog.)
- This one is gross but: I hate to throw up and fortunately it rarely happens. I could count on one hand the number of times in my life I've gotten sick and I still remember it like it was yesterday. In college, when I was hungover, I would just lay in bed for in misery for hours instead of .... you know...just "getting it over with." I know that's gross, but y'all know what I'm talking about it!
Q&A Session:
Favorite color: I am really loving kelly green lately and purple.
Favorite song: I have a LOT of favorites but the Season 1 Glee soundtrack is in my car right now on permanent rotation. "Don't Stop...Believing..."
Favorite dessert: Bananas Foster Cheesecake from Liberty Tap Room in Columbia, SC
Biggest pet peeve: Currently because it's fresh on my mind...ELITIST RUNNERS. There are 2 in my training group who won't even speak to the rest of us nor do they wait on us to finish like everyone else does.
When You Are Upset, You: Cry. Curl up on a couch. Call a friend. Whine on twitter. jk ;)
Your Favorite Pet: I love my kitties.
Black or White: Both?
Biggest fear: Not finding a companion to spend my life with.
Best Feature: No clue. Maybe my eyes? That sounds so cheesy.
Everyday Attitude: I like to make people laugh. I don't take life too seriously.
What is Perfection? Sitting on my back porch with the sun setting, drinking a glass of wine and chatting with a good friend.
Guilty Pleasure: Real Housewives!! Can't stop the train wreck so might as well join in.

These are exactly reasons why we would be best buddies always together if we lived closer! We'd sit outside, eating lasagna, laughing till Real Housewives came on & then head inside to make fun of these crazy ladies! :) (I ADORE Caroline though... the only Housewife that I think has it going ON!)
I swear, I ignore my red light on my phone - I DESPISE IT!!! So I'm totally feeling you there! :)
I'm with you on the back porch thing.
I watched the Housewives too. Sick but true.
I really enjoyed your seven random things! I'm going to try and do a blog post with mine :)
I could do an entire post (rant) about elitist runners. Luckily there are more friendly and encouraging runners than those butts.
Loved it... we have so much in common... :-) I love me alittle HOUSEWIVES drama.. Have a fantastic weekend!
Hi, just found your blog...I'm a Carolina girl as well, just NC! :) Planning to do this in a post on my fairly new blog...What a great idea! I hate talking on the phone as well, texting is the way to go!
