Tell Me Something I Don’t Know About You…..
So fun!! I never have cash on me either, and if I had a choice I would live on Japanese food!! Love your list!!
I also grew up near DC (well 30 mins outside), and was a cheerleader 🙂 What a fun list!
This is a fun fun post! I lived in Northern VA for 5 years and HATED it. OMG so busy, so much traffic, and ahhhh. Of course, take into consideration I am a country girl who lives a super green lifestyle 😀 I love this post though!
It’s so cool how many places you’ve been- I’m jealous! And we definitely have a love for books and reality TV in common! Great list!
I am an HGTV fanatic right along with you girl!
I used to want to be a lawyer too, but one year as a corporate paralegal in NYC after college cured me of that! 😉
How fun! I really need to do something like this.
I bought 2 pianos (Well 1 keyboard, and 1 really old piano) and I can play a little, but want to be able to play really well. I can’t master playing both hands at the same time though <.< I can get the right hand part down, and then the left, but when it comes to putting them together, and doing it at the same time. I just can’t! It’s so frustrating 🙁
I love your list! You were very active in sports as a kid – that’s awesome! Oh, and who doesn’t HATE doing laundry? LOL
What a list! Fun idea!
Pretty good. It would take me a long time to thing of 100 things about myself. I’ve got a special place in my heart for Japan. Which part have you been to?
You swam for many years but don’t like swimming in the ocean? That’s the best place to swim 🙂
Wow, I usually run out of steam by like the 5th thing on a 10 item list! That was awesome!
What a great list! I like how you don’t mind giving birth. I gave birth six times, and every time was a wonderful experience.
Great job Kristin!! My husband is bald too & I love it! I secretly think he looks better with no hair than when he had hair…I’ve only known him as bald!! Shhh…don’t tell!! 😉 I love tech stuff too & have an addiction to Apple after getting my MacBook Pro 3 years ago!!
WOW i dont’ know if I could do 100 things
That is awesome! So many fun things here! It’s fun finding out some new things about ya! I think it would take a me a week to think up 100 fun things about me.
Hm..something interesting about me you may not know…I was a speech/debate geek in high school and college!
Too Fun!! I was a cheerleader too!
Super cool post! Lucky you, your hair grows fast! Mine doesn’t and I hate it! Super awesome how you found 100 things about you to share with everyone 🙂
Great list!! I was a cheerleader too!! 😀
You loved butterfly, huh? That was my least fav stroke but I always got stuck with it in relay, lol!
Lol. I laughed quite a few times. You seem awesome. 🙂 I played the viola too. It was fun. Then again, I’ve never enjoyed the spotlight. Violinists get too much attention. I was good with hiding behind them.
I don’t think I could think up 100 things to say… great job! 🙂
LOL, this is soo cool. Love this post. (60)I ate raw blowfish in Japan ….nooo say it ain’t so. LOL
Great list! I love RI, never have cash, loves walking around B & N for no reason…actually I relate to too many of yours to list. Lol! 🙂
Omg I love lifetime movies too!
So fun to learn all of this! Lifetime is my go to too!
I never have cash on me and I’m addicted to reality TV too.
I used to work in TV news, interviewed Oprah and Al Gore.
There is a good reason we all get along so well! No swimming in the ocean! I am still addicted to watching the weather channel! 🙂
Neat list! I used tonplay the piano and Viola as well. Between the two of us my husband and I own two violins and a viola.
I was forced to play piano, my parents were determined to I love the ocean, we have a pool and I hate it, you are more than welcome to use it, lol. That is such a great way for everyone to get to know you.
That was fun!! I am glad I got to know a little more about you 🙂
Love the idea! I dont know that i could think of 100 thinks about me, very nice knowing all that info about u 😉
the more I learn about you the more I like you!!! 🙂
Wow, you have been to a lot of amazing places! I am loving this meme! It is sofunto get to know more about the lovely ladies I blog and hang out with!
haha! i’m not a ‘good pregnant person’ either 😉
FUN list! and omg – I’m right there with you on #28 and #29.
How cool your dad was a meteorologist! Just read Loving Frank recently and still think about it. And the bit about Barnes & Noble? Me, too. When I first moved here and knew no one, I’d disappear there for hours because it felt so much like home. Love being around books.
