I saw this on one of my favorite food blogs, Carrots ‘N’ Cake, and thought it would be fun to do myself. I love reading people’s answers to question run downs or quizzes like this but never do them myself. So here goes!
A. Age: 27
B. Bed size: In Chicago I have a full with no legs.
In Minneapolis we have a queen that is like sleeping on god.
C. Chore you hate: Cleaning the bathroom floor.
D. Dogs: LOVE! I’m a dog person and a cat person. I’m just an animal person. Except possums. Fuck them.
E. Essential start to your day: Breakfast! I need to eat a big healthy breakfast or I can’t function.
F. Favorite color: Maize and blue. Honolulu blue and sliver.
G. Gold or silver: Sliver.
H. Height: 5’6 1/2”
I. Instruments you play: I started playing the flute when I was 9, and even got a college scholarship for my mad skillz.

O. Overnight hospital stays: Maybe? I got my face eaten off by a dog when I was 3 so I might have stayed overnight for that. But nothing serious since then!
P. Pet peeve: People who are constantly talking about how busy they are, and people who make unnecessary noises with their mouths, like slurping, gum smacking, and loud chewing. Also ‘alot’. I’ve got a lot of pet peeves.
Q. Quote from a movie: Has the fact that you’re completely psycho managed to escape your attention? Or, ALL of 10 Things I Hate About You.
R. Right or left handed: Right.

W. What makes you run late: My kitties like to puke on my shoes when I’m not looking.
X. X-Rays you’ve had: None. I’ve never broken a bone.

If you snag this idea be sure to link it to me because I love reading them. It’s a fun blogging exorcise, too, if you are just being boring and knitting the same stupid thing over and over and over and have nothing interesting to say on your blog. READ: me!

Yay! I love things like this.
I hate olives as well
I was at a wedding last weekend and I ordered a “fruity martini” and he gave me a dirty martini. It was pretty disgusting, but it was Belvedere, so I felt like I needed to at least drink a little bit.
Nope, not good.
And, yes, fuck possums!

Allyson Kay Dykhuizen-your answer to D…isn’t there a nicer way to say you do not like something?

I <3 Lions & Tigers too, but probably for different reasons…
