I was tagged by Chelsy who writes the blog Mangia to participate in an 11 Random Things Survey.
Here are her answers here.
I am supposed to:
1. List 11 random things about myself.
2. Answer the 11 questions she asked me.
3 Come up with 11 questions to ask other bloggers.
4. Tag 11 bloggers to do this next.
So here are 11 random things about myself
1. I have one tattoo (a green four leaf clover on my hip...to honor my Irish roots)
2. I have always loved tall guys but married a guy 5'5" (I love him more than the tall guys)
3. I trained to be a police officer but switched to an administrative civilian job
4. I love travelling and Europe is my favorite spot
5. I attended Montessori school as a child and firmly believe it is one of the best educations out there
6. I have an 8 lbs dog named Zeus (yes the irony is not lost on me)
7. I work better with men than women (less drama and men are more straight forward)
8. I am a member of PETA (not in a crazy way, but just in way that I need to stand up for animals)
9. I love UFC, especially Georges St. Pierre (the best pound for pound fighter out there)
10. I was a cheerleader in high school and college

Loved getting a glimpse into your life. That is so interesting that you trained to be a police officer, you are brave. I think most woman would say they like to work with men better, they just get to the point and don't create drama. I am not saying all woman do, but c'mon, we've all experienced it.
ReplyDeleteThese are so great - I love getting know you better! I work better with men too.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tag, but I actually did this one last week! My kitchen-staple is sriracha or some other spiciness. It can rescue (almost) any dish.
This is so fun! I love learning random, unexpected and interesting things about people!
ReplyDeleteThat's funny - my favorite way to sweat would be not at all, and I'm sad to say that I have no idea at all who Ryan Reynolds or Channing Tatum are...
ReplyDeleteI love reading these kinds of things...although I'm not sure that men are less drama than women--the shows I've directed that were just men were way more trouble than the all-female ones!
