Elise from Hungry Hungry Hippie tagged me in this questionnaire.

It has taken me a while to get to this, but I am glad I finally got to!

Here’s what I have to do:

1. List 11 random things about myself
2. Answer the 11 questions she asked me
3. Come up with 11 questions to ask other bloggers
4. Tag 11 other bloggers to do this next

11 Random Things About Me:

1. I only sleep on my sides. May have something to do with my spine. I don’t have a spinal deformity, just super curvy. Curves are great, but sometimes they can be a pain–literally!

2. I am accident prone. Since December, I’ve been to the Emergency Room 3 times. In fact, this morning I just stubbed one of my right toes this morning. Some minor internal bleeding.

3. I used to be a night owl, now I’m most alert in the mornings. I worked on this for years and years. This goes to show that perseverance and determination pays off!

4. I used to play the flute in elementary and junior high school. I miss it so much that every time I hear people playing it, I get a sense of nostalgia. Someday…

5. I have been “craving” fish lately. This random fact about myself is freaking me out. I haven’t had a bite of fish in over 6 or 7 years!

6. I wish I invested in a PC instead of a Mac. The compatibility (or shall I say incompatibility) that Mac has with other systems is really getting to me.

7. I find it hilarious when people say things that catches me off guard.

8. I can train dogs really well. This may be because I have had a lot of practice with my own dogs. Those dog training videos really helped too. Currently I’m working on getting Loomis Canine Good Citizen certified, so that he can visit with kids.

9. I find men with tattoos extremely attractive. Eeek! Don’t tell my husband that! Good thing he doesn’t read my blog.

10. The cold makes me want to stay in bed, while the heat makes me want to get up and move.

11. I think old people are adorable. I know this is weird. I have no idea why I feel this way. I hope when I’m old others will still think I’m cute too.

Questions I Have To Answer:

1. Do you have any nicknames? My sister calls me “Pinky,” She’s “Brain.” (hint: it’s really the other way around–love you Samy!)
2. Chocolate or vanilla? Depends. I prefer vanilla ice cream, but I like chocolate.
3. Guilty pleasure TV show? Vampire Diaries. Just recently I’ve been addicted to SMASH. Can’t wait for the next episode on Monday!
4. Alcoholic drink of choice? Martini
5. Favorite dessert? Tiramisu
6. Where were you born? Texas. Howdy Y’all!
7. How old were you when you joined facebook? I haven’t the slightest clue
8. Favorite meal you ate as a kid? rice porridge with grease sticks for dipping. Must have been the chicken soup effect.
9. Last vacation you went on? Oh boy I haven’t had one in a while!
10. Something you hated as a child but eat now? Bitter Melon. When my dad made bitter melon soup, I would pick out the filling and sneak the rest in the garbage can. He would find out and I would be in big trouble. Now, I LOVE it!
11. Favorite holiday? Christmas. I love the family-gift giving feeling.

Questions for the next round of people:

1. What’s the first thing you do when you wake up?

3. What’s the longest time you’ve spent reading blogs?
