6 random things about me

February 27th, 2008 · 12 Comments

My friend Jen tagged me last week, and I’m really good at procrastinating. Anyway, here are the rules:

  • Link to the person that tagged you.
  • Post the rules on your blog.
  • Share 6 non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself.
  • Tag 6 random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs. But, I’m not tagging people, because that takes effort. And last time I tagged some people it took some of them FOREVER to respond… SARAH. Feel free to tag yourself though, you can say I tagged you.
  • Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.

Here goes…

1) I trim my leg/arm hair. listen people, I’m a hairy person. Although I don’t really care about my facial hair a whole lot, and I let my chest hair flow from the top of my shirts, I don’t like long leg hair or arm hair. But definitely the leg hair. I used to make fun of people who shaved their legs all the time in middle school/high school… But now I can see why they do it…

calves

My legs are totally hawt.

2) I cry in movies, a lot. When I was in Austin last we went to go see “Definitely, Maybe” and Sam asked if I wanted to go take a nap afterwards because I had to have been emotionally drained from all the crying. Man was she right. No movie will ever get to me like “I Am Legend” though, definitely almost started sobbing like a little girl during the dogs scene. I held it together though.  For the most part.

3) I’m really shy in person, but not afraid to make an ass of myself to make the group I’m with laugh. Which is why karaoke and I get along so well.

4) I used to work at Wal*Mart… In the cart crew. I’m not proud of it.

5) I sweat a lot, like, it’s uncontrollable. I’m not even hot and I’ll sweat. It could be 40 degrees outside and I’ll have moist (ew) pits. Maybe I should get something checked out. It also could be a Boone thing. My entire family is hot natured… Why did I just admit this on the internet?

6) I have no formal cooking training whatsoever. My mom didn’t even really teach me much when I was growing up. I just kind of learned it on my own. I did take some cooking classes at school, but they were sanitation and prep and intro to hospitality. What can I say? I’m just good.

    If you found a girl that was also constantly sweaty , she could get a t-shirt that said “I’m always wet”, and you could get one that said “Me too”.

    George–I’ve been reading you for awhile…you’re so funny.

    And you’re legs are totally “hawt.” :)

    Just go back and change the “t” in sweat to an “r”. It won’t really help with the moist pits bit, but it’ll intrigue people that swearing runs in your family.

    The sweating is actually a pretty commone problem. One that I used to suffer from myself. A quick trip to the dermatologist and a prescription will fix it for you more than likely. I think I used the prescription 3-4 times a week maybe. It tends to make your pits a little dry and itchy at first, but then you get used to it. I’m not really sure why I admitted to this on the internet either, just thought it might help ya out a bit.

    Well, I can totally understand number 5. I think I inherited my father’s sweat glands as my mom can work out hard for like 45 mins straight and not break a sweat but put me or my dad in a room that’s hotter than 50 degrees and all we have to do is sit and sweat…and I’m a girl…so it’s doubly bad for me. But I agree, your legs are hawt,

  • minxlj // Feb 28, 2008 at 3:34 pm

    You have hotter legs than I do G, I’m totally jealous. And you cry more than I do at movies (except The Green Mile ‘cos I bawled like a baby at that one), that’s so cute!

  • Jami // Feb 28, 2008 at 3:50 pm

    I am glad you dislike the word moist*shudder* as much as I do.

    And don’t worry about the shaving thing, my man totally shaves his legs more often than I do.

  • Sally // Feb 28, 2008 at 9:58 pm

    OK, I hate the word moist too. It’s like you’re almost wet, but not quite there yet. It’s so lusty a word, it’s almost embarrassing.

    And the Green Mile? It was a whole box of tissues, no lie. Can you imagine knowing you’re going to the electric chair? And that mouse? Don’t even get me started. Also that boxer movie with what’s his name, Russel Crowe. Bawled my eyes out. He reminded me of my dad I think. Purina dog chow commercials? Check.

    Other than that, I’m a rock. It takes a lot in real life to make me cry.

    And yes, your legs are hawt. I shave my legs twice a year, whether I need to or not. I figure why get all obsessive over such things. :-)

    i wanna know how u took a picture of the back of your calves?

  • Tasty // Feb 29, 2008 at 10:48 am

    Hawt, indeed.

  • Renee // Mar 2, 2008 at 12:00 am

    Drysol (by prescription) or Certain Dri (over the counter) will change your life. Trust me.

    Interesting note by your commenter regarding excessive sweating and an RX.

    My hubby had that problem and at 19 had the sweat glans removed from his armpits. Not pretty and took two surgeries to do the trick. Son, 15 is also an excessive sweater. Showers 2x daily. Will look into the meds.

    George you should be very proud of yourself for working so hard on being healthy. Truly, it is inspiring :)
