This week for Friday Fun I wanted to do something different. In addition to my about me page, I thought it would be fun to post some random facts about me. I got this A to Z idea from Kelly of Sparkles and Shoes and I loved it!
So here goes...me from A to Z.
A - Available or married?
Married. 3.5 years to this amazingly hot guy...
B- Book?
Oh goodness...I am reading 5 different books right now and can't wait until our trip where I plan to read about 7 more! My favorite book of all time...Great Gatsby! I am so excited for the movie!
C- Cake or Pie?
I love both since I was nicknamed Junkfood Jilly as a kid but I would have to say cake. The 21st Century Cake at our local market is TO.DIE.FOR. It is only allowed in our house twice a month. It's that good.
D- Drink of Choice?
Sparkling Water. I am addicted to it. I sometimes have to have it for breakfast. La Croix is my favorite brand. If you have not tried it, try it now! You will thank me later!
E- Essential start to your day:
Sitting up for 10 - 20 minutes in bed - I get dizzy if I don't do this. Oh and scratching my dog, Kirin's, back. He makes me. This is not something I choose to do.
See...
F- Favorite Color?
Green. Green. Green. If you can't tell from this blog or our wedding pictures. I am so happy it's Pantone's color of the year...more green makes me a happy girl.
G- Game to play or watch?
Definitely the Lifetime Couch Game (warning the couch game can take HOURS our of your day - trust me). I just played the other night after taking a 4 year break. I still got it! Thanks for reminding me of this Brooke!
H- Height?
In my mind, I am 5'7" but in reality I am 5'2" and 3/4 so basically 5'3". I round up.
I- Indulgence?
J- Job?
I've had many (Retail Buyer, Marketing Director, Copywriter) but I am currently an Account Director for an Online Marketing Company by day (love it) and a necklace maker by night/weekend!
K- Kids and names?
L- Life is incomplete without?
Family, Friends and Good Health!
M- Music group or singer?
I love Acoustic Guitar/Singer Songwriter artists (Jason Mraz, Jack Johnson, Tony Lucca, Matt Wertz, etc). I am a loyal DMB fan even though I don't love the new stuff. And I love all the songs that I hear on the soft/easy listening station that my mom listens too. Don't hate, it's good stuff!
N- Number of siblings?
O- Overnight hospital stays:
One. Hated it. I hope I never have to go again.
P- Phobias/Fears?
Emetephobia - fear of throwing up. I know everyone says that they hate throwing up (who likes it?) but I have an actual FEAR of it. Like panic attacks, hyperventilation, all that fun stuff. It's not cool and it definitely limits things I do in life. I can't wait for the day I get over it - so does my poor husband who has to deal with me when I feel sick! :)
Q- Favorite Quote?
So corny but I love this one:
Honestly if you truly believe this you can get through tough times. I always look at the bad things in life and see what good came out of them.
There you have it! I hope I didn't bore you on this lovely Friday. Happy weekend everyone! So corny but I love this one:

R. Righty or Lefty:
Righty. But I do certain things left handed like cutting with a knife and playing the guitar. Well attempting to play the guitar. Does Guitar Hero count? :)
S- Favorite Shoes
I can't even answer this. Here's why...
...and this is only half of the shoes I own.

T. Time you wake up:
7 am. I don't mind waking up early as long as I wake up on my own. I despise alarm clocks. I think they make people grumpy. Especially those loud beepy ones...those suck.
U- Unknown facts about me?
I spent NYE 1999 and 2000 at the Playboy Mansion. Yes, I was fully clothed and yes it was amazingly fun.
V. Vegetables you dislike:
Too many to write but mainly potatoes, mushrooms, eggplant and basically any veggie that has been cooked. It's usually easier for me to list the ones I do like.
W. What makes you run late:
Being totally OCD and checking to make sure my flat iron and curling irons are off. 99% of the time they are so I have no idea why I think this all of the time. I also think that I left burners on even if I have not cooked anything for a week.
X. X-rays you've had:
A lot. I broke my little toe when I was 8 and had a cast up to my knee with a rainbow walking boot. It was not pretty. I also spent my entire childhood at the dentist because my teeth wouldn't fall out on their own. My adult teeth grew in and for a short time I had two rows of teeth. Then my new teeth were crowded so I spent 6 years in headgear, braces, spacers and retainers. So yes, a lot of x-rays in my life.
Y. Your Favorite Food:
Z- Zodiac
Aries. I was born on the last day of Aries because I refused to be a Taurus. That's so Aries of me.
What are your A to Z's? Share some below! Even better, do your own post and let me know you did it! :)
