Ten.

September 26, 2011


  1. That photo of me looking like a creep was taken when: 1. It was super cold in my office and I wanted to die from frostbite (also a fact: I’m a little bit dramatic sometimes), and 2. Right after I chipped a tooth. One of my front teeth. While eating soup. I don’t even know.
  2. I can rap along to “Stronger” by Kanye West. Every single word. It’s embarrassing. Don’t ever ask me to do it. Ever
  3. I detest lipgloss. A lot. It’s goopy and gross. And if it’s windy outside? Forget it, all of my hair will be stuck to my lips and that is not cute. I’ll just stick with chapstick like a boring person.
  4. I’m obsessed with Jillian Michaels’ workouts. My biceps are kind of awesome thanks to her. Oh yeah. Do not mess. (Note: my biceps are probably awesome only to me, but it counts.)
  5. I love brussels sprouts. LOVE THEM. They’re pretty much the most hated veggie, right? Call me gross, but, I think they’re majorly underrated. I could eat them every day. 
  6. Regarding the show Parenthood: 1. I can't get through an episode without turning into an emotional crazy person. Tell me I'm not alone in this. 2. Jason Ritter makes my heart happy. 3. I'm kind of in love with Crosby.
  7. Sriracha. That stuff rocks my world. I put it on everything.
  8. My whole entire life, brushing my hair has been one of my least favourite things. Just ask my mom - I used to run away and/or cry at the sight of a hair brush when I was little. “But mom! It has to be messy!” To this day... I hardly ever brush it. Which is probably bad for it. I currently have like 27 knots goin' on. Whatevs.
  9. Sometimes... I snort when I laugh. I can't control it. It just happens. Out of nowhere. And it's probably super unattractive and weird. Dang it.
  10. When I was a kid, I got to watch the filming of a scene from The Wonder Years in Burbank. It was a scene that took place between Kevin and Winnie outside Winnie’s house. It may or may not have changed my life forever. 
Now... it's your turn. Do it.

  3. 5 - brussel sprouts are delicious. I don't understand why everyone dislikes them so much.
    6 - Parenthood is one of my fave shows on TV right now. it's so well-made and realistic - a quality which most television lacks nowadays. and Jason Ritter just makes everything better.
    7 - my whole family is obsessed with sriracha.
    10 - jealous! I loved The Wonder Years when I was younger.

  4. I never knew what that sauce was called! I just knew we took it on camp outs and ate it on our cooked-over-the-fire breakfast burritos and it was like heaven exploding in my mouth. So. Good.

    btw: not brushing your hair is totally fine. In fact, don't ever brush it. Wide-tooth comb. ;)

  7. Thank you for not being a lip gloss person! I'm not grossed out by it, but I pretty much only ever use chapstick. It's nice to know I'm not alone.
    And...Crosby is the bomb.

  8. Hahaha, it was really fun to read this! :) You're the first person I who likes Brussel sprouts! And I totally had to look up "sriracha". I've never seen Parenthood, btw. I'm kind of curious but I never check where and when it's on.

    Hope you have a fun week!

    Miki.

  11. #2, 3 & 4: SAME HERE! Except my rap song is California Love by 2Pac. I have no idea how I know every single word.

    Also, #10: I am SO jealous. I was just thinking yesterday, "Why in the world is The Wonder Years not on DVD yet?!?" I love that show.

  12. The Wonder Years? Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh!

    I hate brushing/combing my hair, too. It's curly and it used to be very long and because my mum had only ever had short, straight hair she had no idea what to do with it - it felt like she was ripping it all out of my scalp as she brushed it. Because she was. These days it's very thin and I still have my suspicions it's not supposed to be...

  13. Maybe you have said this somewhere before, but how do you get your hair that amazing color? I WANT IT.

    Yes, Jason Ritter is adorable. I love that story line. And Crosby is so great. I love them all. I want to be their friend.

  14. Brussels sprouts are delicious. Put them in the oven, with a little salt, pepper, and olive oil. YUM.

    I haven't seen Parenthood, but I get emotional just watching the commercials for it.

  22. Eeee, so going to do this as well! Also, I also ran from the brush when I was little. I had waist-length hair and hated having it brushed. Now it's muuuuuch shorter, so a quick one two through my hair and I'm good. :P

  32. kelly ann, i think... i love you. there, my confession is out :) i love brussel sprouts too, i was just thinking of them other day. my hubby HATES all veggies, so our meals are far less than id desire them to be for the most part... im too lazy to cook two meals. my mom used to make them though, and i loved them. and butter beans and spinach! yum!

    i think i might actually do this list, and i never do these things :) this was just too fun! cuteness you are!

  35. i can't get enough of jillian! her workouts are awesome, even though i don't do them as often as i should!
    #10 is such a fun fact!

  36. I love crosby too! I think sometimes the message of the show isn't the way I feel about things. I was really upset with the plot-line where he slept with Max's aide because I really felt like Jasmine was wrong and she's sort of a terrible person and she's never really done anything nice for Crosby, and she just sort of expects him to be unconditionally perfect while she flails in life and does whatever she wants. It makes me really mad because I think the message of the show is that Crosby is a screw up but we love him anyway, when really he's just imperfect like everyone else. Just in different ways.

    Wow, did I seriously just write that much about PARENTHOOD?
