Still no camera, still a dead battery. So THANKFULLY Tricia Anne over at Notes of Sincerity tagged me with the challenge to share "6 random things" about myself.
So here goes....
1. Growing up, I wanted to either be a tour guide or a QVC host as a profession. I would lead my parents on "tours" on vacation. I remember being a child on a trip to Napa giving them all the ins and outs at a winery. That must have been hilarious. I also would video tape myself video taping myself "selling" things from by bedroom on my own QVC show. Yeah, I still kind of wish I had that job.
2. I am an only child.
3. My favorite food in the whole world is the potato. Potatoes are my version of manna raining from heaven. Baked, fried, sweet, salad, frozen, raw (i know). I love them all. I remember sitting out my Grandma's front porch peeling potatoes and sneaking bites of the raw bits. Gross to most, wonderful to me.
4. I religiously get my hair done every 7-9 weeks. I pay way too much, but I could never cheat on my hair girl. I love her. If you live in the STL and need someone wonderful, let me know.
5. I really hate two colors of ink on one sheet of paper. Black or blue people. You just can't have it both ways.
6. I love going to the NHRA drag races.
Instead of tagging more of you ( I love you all too much) ... let's shoot for a comment frenzy.
What is the MOST random fact about yourself you can think of. What a wonderful way to get to know each other a little better :)
Come back and see me!

Completely random, but as a child I could not have ANY food on my plate touching (especially meat and vegetables). While I can tolerate that now as an adult, I can still only eat one thing at a time until it is gone, then I move on to the next item.
Fun post! I'm a potato girl, too...
As for my blue chair, I bought it that way, at one of my favourite thrifting haunts. However, if you like the colour, this company has a similar one: www.flikandcompany.com
They call it Flik and Co. Blue. It's gorgeous. I used it on the fairy door in my left sidebar of my blog.
Hope this helps!

First... Lara- I completely understand; however, I still can't tolerate food touching one another as an adult. If they made divided plates as fine china you better believe I'd have those in my cabinets.
Random fact... I camp with a gun club. We're called the Twaskita Longrifles and we dress in period clothing and live as if we were in the 1800s.
I like this post! Random fact about me: I only take baths. I watched all of those movies about people coming in and killing people in the shower and so I figure at least this way I will see them. I'm sure i'd still get killed though.. haha
I am with you on the hairstylist...although I have to go longer than 7-9 weeks or my husband will kill me. But nothing beats a great haircut, it just makes everything so much easier. :)

I love it! Your parents must have been so amused as you played tour guide! That is great! Another strange thing, is that I never read a magazine from front to back. I always go from back to front. Weird.
Thanks for playing! This was fun!
Sincerely ~ Tricia Anne
I am the same way with ink! If I pick up a pen and it isn't the color I thought it was I have to start over!!
I prefer black. I really don't think there should be blue pens.
Hey...I THINK I got over here from Buzzings of a Q.B.???
Anyway, I noticed you love all things Damask. Thought you might like to take a peek at my daughter's new damask walls. It's posted as the "Big Reveal" on my site.
If you've already visited it, just dismiss me as a "dork". : )

SOOO funny you mentioned NHRA. I worked for Ron Capps (the guy who drives the Skoal Car, to those of you who don't know him) for a couple of years. I was a SKOAL GIRL! Ha ha! (And, no, I never used the stuff, actually felt TERRIBLE promoting it, so I quit)

I remember videotaping ourselves doing infomercials in your bedroom. I think we did a lot of Oreck vacuum commercials and something for a love songs CD compilation. Those were the days!
