Friday Fantastic 7: Facts About Moi

Jules over at Mean Girl Garage tagged me for a Meme. Does anyone actually know what "meme" means? Or does it stand for something? I suppose I could look it up or something. Anyhoodle, she tagged me and here we are... The rules are as follows...

Thank the person who gave you the award: {Jules}
Share 7 things about yourself... Keep reading, you'll get there...
Pass along the award to 15 bloggers who you've discovered and who you think are fantastic... I don't know 15 bloggers who would actually follow through with this, so I'll follow in Jules' footsteps and tag a few!

1. 7 things? Seriously? Don't you know pretty much everything about me already?
2. Let's see... Tom posted a picture from the Spiral Jetty Sirens shoot yesterday and I'm slightly embarrassed about it. So embarrassed in fact, I'm sharing it with you. The embarrassment mostly comes from the fact that I did, in fact, bare my right boobie. Tom has ever-so-artistically covered it with a dove. For some reason, I don't care if you guys see it, but I don't necessarily want my family seeing it. Is that weird? In addition, I feel like I'm becoming slightly narcissistic as a result of the shoot.

3. I have become a huge fan of Color Splash on HGTV. It's hosted by David Bromstad who is absolutely wonderful. Not to mention the man is gorgeous! Anyway, he does an original painting for each of the makeovers he does and has totally inspired me to paint. I'll be the first to tell you how artistically-challenged I am, but I figure I can do abstract. That'll work for me. I bought two canvases and some paint last week and I hope to play around with it this weekend!

4. I'm going to paint my family room, kitchen and dining area this weekend. I bought small samples of the paint I chose to try them out on the walls and make sure I like them. I even got some Frog Tape so I can start taping off the baseboards, ceiling, cupboards, etc. I can't wait to get that done and start on the backsplash in the next month or two. Lisa, get your gloves ready.
5. I wish I had $20,000 to spend solely on decorating my house. I'd buy new furniture for the family room, a bedroom set for myself, and a nice desk setup for the office. I would paint all the rooms fun, vibrant colors and accessorize to my heart's content. Hell, I could even do all that with $10,000. Anyone want to donate to my cause?

6. I'm getting really sick and tired of putting up with a certain person I work with. I'm done being treated like a five year old. Excuse me, but last time I checked I have a Bachelors Degree and a Masters Degree and think I'm competent enough to do what needs to be done. Shit, I'm even thinking of going back for another Masters. So kiss it.

7. I would love to take some cooking classes. I really don't mind cooking, and I know how to cook... I'm just not very good at it. I told Jessica this tonight after I overcooked our eggs and forgot to flip the pancakes that got a little too crispy.

There's my list... did you like it? Now it's your turn:

maybe pick a certain type of cuisine for your cooking class. that way you can say that you are an ok cook in general but a fucking professional with thai cuisine. it would also allow you to wear one of those floppy chef hats.

Big Mama Cass said...

Make sure you take the frog tape off about 10 minutes after you paint. I speak from experience. :(

If you had 20k I would rob you. Just sayin. :)

Smack the bitch. SURSLY. Next time you are there. That's my vote.

kara - not sure how i'd look in a chef hat, but if i ever get one, i'll take a pic for you! you should set up your blog to allow others to respond to your comments thru email!


I sent emails to you other two hooligans...

Haha nice dove boob. Tom did a great job!

You're on that plane so much I'm sure you could be a drug mule for a few trips and rack up $20,000 easy!

Just remember... If you start sweating and feeling incredible amounts of adrenaline, that means the heroin bags broke. You'll need to gag yourself and throw up everything possible IMMEDIATELY and you'll also need to shit yourself. Or you'll die.

That guy is hot!!! Good luck with the painting. Wouldn't we all want $20,000 for decorating? I would like to take cooking classes as well. But I can't cook.
