My BlogHer roomie, Jennie, tagged me for a meme last week and before I forget to play (which usually happens), here are six completely random things that you always (never) wanted to know about me. Just think, if there was a Le Petit Chic category on Jeopardy, you could totally sweep it!
- I have a total of seven piercings on my body, three of which I still actively utilize. Feel free to guess where they all are!
- I have the weird habit of pinching the sides of my fingers (near the nails) when I'm nervous. I'll have to take a picture of it sometime because it's so hard to explain. I often use Jon's fingers to satisfy the urge too. Being the good hubby that he is, he usually obliges me because he knows it calms me down. God, I'm weird!
- I can't stand the taste of milk. I won't even use it in my cereal. I used to be able to stomach chocolate milk, but now I can't even drink that. I also don't like most Alfredo sauces because they taste too milky. Oddly enough, I do eat ice cream and yogurt and cheese. And Yoo-Hoos! Proof that they're nothing but sugar :)
- As bad as it might sound, I have more compassion for animals than people. With the exception of children, I feel that they're more helpless and unable to ask for help.
- Even after four years of college, I still can't take a decent shot. I usually have to take two goes at it, which renders the whole purpose of taking a shot useless. That's okay, I really don't like shots anyway!
- I've changed my engagement ring twice. The original ring was a beautiful princess cut with 2 smaller princess cut stones and 2 baguettes on either side. That was hard to match a wedding band to, so I replaced the baguettes with more princess cut stones. After the wedding, I realized that I preferred round brilliants to princess cuts because although I love the square shape of the princess, it doesn't have the sparkle of a round. So now I have a beautiful ideal cut diamond set on a band of round pavé diamonds. And our jeweler upgraded me to platinum since we gave him so much business! And in case you're wondering, Jon did not care in the least bit since it was me who told him I wanted a princess in the first place. He's the best :)
I'm not going to tag anyone, but feel free to play if you want!
P.S. For all of you Typepad users out there, am I the only one who hates the new "Compose" page? That's why my post from last night looks like crap. The coding is really screwed up when you post pictures and I wasn't able to fix it. F%@*&# Typepad!!
