21 Things

OK, for any regular readers, apologies for the gaps in posting...I think we have all had a busy week for various reasons. I returned from a retreat this weekend and my daughter is working on being a jack-o-lantern for Halloween, therefore she hasn't slept all week.

In imitation of lists I have seen at numerous other blogs...here is a list of 21 things about me which may or may not be true. Pick out which ones you think are true and which ones you think are false. I'm tagging lumpy to do his 21 things and then he can tag others and so on.

1. I am a Jane Austen fanatic.
2. Growing up, we always had St. Bernards.
3. I have been an activist in a national hunger campaign.
4. I worked for 2 years decorating cakes for a local supermarket.
5. It was at this supermarket that Lumpy and I met.
6. I broke the arm off of a Mary statue with a baseball when I was 7.
7. I own over 200 cookbooks.
8. I have a graduate degree in library science.
9. My father is my hero.
10. I'm double-jointed and so can do some pretty wacky things.
11. I have been in 15 community theatre productions.
12. I am a soap opera fanatic.
13. I have a hidden talent for playing Magic the Gathering.
14. My best friend and I used to go through the sprinklers of a private golf course on our bikes on summer nights.
15. My dad photographed the Wrigley's gum ads.
16. While on vacation, I once tripped over Mel Torme's phone cord.
17. The leader of a mom's group I am in is the mother of a member of a well-known band.
18. Lumpy calls my 6 month old daughter the rodent, and has a column about her.
19. I am a closet Martha Stewart fan.
20. My favorite bands are Jars of Clay and Casting Crowns.
21. Lumpy proposed to me at McDonalds.

LIAR LIAR LIAR LIAR LIAR!!!!!!! I simply can not allow that to stand. There is no way I would propose at a McDonalds and I have more class than to go shopping for women at the supermarket. Granted not a lot more class but enough to know I'm not going to find me a wife as easily as running to the store and picking up a cake.

Although come to think of it there maybe something too that. I mean if you get a wife the way that I did then she doesn't come with a "quality or your money back gauranteed".

Of course it doesn't matter to me cause I'm happy anyways Hipp. Hipp...? PUT DOWN THE BASEBALL BAT DEAR!!

The Lumpy

Way to go Hipp!

Lumpy, McDonald's? I know that's true. I also heard it took 9 minutes to get it done with too...

WOw, dog training now. I'm leaving that ad in there and not deleting it just so we can all see how stupid that is.

I'm gonna try and guess which ones are false, hipp...

2. No St. Bernards
5. You and Lumps did not meet at a supermarket
(I just wanna say, I want #7 to be true, because I love to cook)
10. You're double-jointed?
12. No soaps for you, but I sure like General Hospital!
14. But maybe you did go through those sprinklers...
15. Wrigley's gum - but I want to say it's true, because I met a guy last week whose grandfather helped develop the wrigley's gum formula
16. Mel Torme?
18. It's the BEAST!
20. ...because I don't know casting crowns
21. Lumpy'd never do that! Plus, he already posted he didn't....
