My dorkable quirks
February 16, 2010I’m a dorkable nerd… yes – I admit it and I’m proud of it. I had straight A’s in all my honors and AP courses in school, and I loved being teacher’s pet… so what!!??? Nothing wrong with that, right
I’m an obsessive researcher… when I get a project to do (whether it’s researching pricing for a new album, or finding a new pair of sandals) I will over-analyze-it-to-death!!! I will make charts and tables until I make up my mind about anything!! This comes in handy in business, not so handy when it takes me 3 days to buy a pair of shoes, and by the time I decide on which ones I like they’re all out of my size! Ugh!!!!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE makeup… ’nuff said! LOL! I’m a Bare Escentuals FANNATIC – I stalk their website like every other day to see what new eyeshadows they have!
I LOVE Jewelry – but usually never wear it … I refuse to wear anything ‘fake’ – so I spent an insane amount of money a few years ago when I was at the peak of my jewelry craze. I invested in all sorts of precious gemstones – from tanzanites to Paraiba tourmalines, to sapphires, and all sorts of gems! (my hubby definitely doesn’t know about this one either… so let’s keep it a ‘websecret’)
I LOVE LOVE LOVE sweets and cookies… actually, not so much sweets – just cookies, cakes, and all sugary carbs in general. When I was preggers with my son, I seriously downed an entire box of oatmeal crème cookies in one day!! No joke!!! (I’m hiding my face in shame right about now!)
I LOVE wedding cake, but I’ve never tasted the wedding cakes of the weddings I’ve shot… I don’t really know why! Haha!
I used to be in the fashion industry many years ago… but it only took me less than a year to realize I’m not a hard-core biieeatttch (pardon my French) … so I knew I wasn’t made for that world!! LOL!!
I HATE to cook. Seriously… I hate the kitchen in general. I just wasn’t born with that gene. I can look at a fridge filled with food and I can never figure out what to make for dinner; but my hubby can look at a near-empty fridge and come up with an amazing meal for us to enjoy!!! LOVE him for that!!! – the worst part is that I have no desire to learn – I know… I’m a horrible wife! LOL!
You want to know what I watch all day long – NICK JR!!! I wish I was kidding here… sadly, my TV is always on Nick JR. – anything to keep my son happy and smiling… so since he loves his ‘NiHao Kailan’ and his ‘Yo Gaba Gaba’ and his ‘iCarly’ – what can I do?
I love iCarly as much as my son does!!!!! I watch her show even when my son is taking his nap! And I seriously anxiously await the new shows as if I was a little tween myself… then I remind myself that I’m a 30 year old woman and should be watching shows like dateline or something… but you know what? I like laughing with my son and I think it’s ok to feel like a tween every once in a while!
