I find it sad I only update my blog for memes.

ABC Meme

ACCENT: I’m quite sure by now I have a Texas accent. But I still have my New Jersey accent on words such as Pajamas and Library.

BIBLE BOOK THAT I LIKE: I liked Revelation growing up.

CHORE I DON’T CARE FOR: Mowing the Lawn, Cleaning the Kitchen, Cleaning the Garage and Cleaning the bathtub. Julie handles the kitchen though, so at least I get out of one of those.

DOG OR CAT: Dog. There have been cats I have loved, but I love pretty much all dogs (and they love me).

**ESSENTIAL ELECTRONICS:**  My server. All of my data lives there. All of my websites live there. Webmail is there. I probably require another computer to access it, but still.

FAVORITE COLOGNE: I wear Grass (by the Gap). I dread finding another scent. I hate trying to find scents, my schnoz is too sensitive and I end up with a headache. For this reason I wear unscented deoderant and use mostly unscented shampoo.

GOLD OR SILVER: Silver. I had gold earings for a while, but I think I’d go for silver if I ever got my ears pierced again.

HANDBAG I CARRY MOST OFTEN: I believe my quote is “Everything I need, I keep in my pants.” Outside of that the handbag I carry most often is whatever Julie happens to be carrying, although she’s very self-sufficient and doesn’t let me help her unless it’s been several hours of walking and her purse is really heavy.

INSOMNIA: Not really, no. Like Katie I occasionally just spend an entire night awake for no apparnent reason. I think it might reset my clock or something.

JOB TITLE: Software Engineer or something… I dunno I work at a startup.

KIDS: Stella

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS: Julie and I live in a house that’s a bit too large for us with Lucy, Roxie, Stella, and Punky.

**MOST ADMIRABLE TRAIT:**  Um… I dunno.

NAUGHTIEST CHILDHOOD BEHAVIOR: I hated getting in trouble. I did have a secret stash of chocolate chips in my hideout under the stairs though…

OVERNIGHT HOSPITAL STAYS: I have never been required to stay overnight, but I slept on the couch in Julie’s room when Stella was born.

PHOBIAS: Heights. Exploding tires. Ok that’s technically an irrational fear, but at the end of Brokeback Mountain, I was about to say, “See Julie tires do explode.” But then I realized that they were only using that because it would be obvious to the audience it doesn’t happen. That made me feel sad.

QUOTE: “Sarcasm is a tool of the weak.” A Seperate Peace (John Knowles)

RELIGION: Christian.

SIBLINGS: 3 sisters, 4 brother-in-laws

TIME I WAKE UP: I usually wake up at 7am to run or 8am to just go directly to work.

UNUSUAL TALENT OR SKILL: German Folkdancing?

VEGETABLE I REFUSE TO EAT: I dislike most vegetables, but I’m trying to grow in that regard. I will eat anything.

WORST HABIT: It’s so hard to pick just one.

X-RAYS: Many, and not for any interesting reasons.

YUMMY STUFF I COOK: Goat Cheese Chicken, Chicken Cashew Curry with home-made Nan bread, Spinach and Cheese stuffed Beef Tenderloin, Chicken Picatta, Hanger Steaks, Chocolate Covered Cherries…

ZOO ANIMAL I LIKE MOST: Monkeys. Any type of monkey. And racoons, and sea otters. Anything with hands. Animals with hands rock. I also like sloths. Because they have hands and I would like to be one.
