You just don't know: 5 things
I got tagged for this meme from two people... Marcus and Julie. But since I got tagged twice, it doesn't mean I will do it twice.
Here goes, five things you probably don't know about me:
1. I just finished wrapping Christmas presents. But that's not what I wanted to share. What I wanted to share is that when D and I were dating, we bought some wrapping paper at the dollar store. One of the rolls was Kwanza themed paper and every year we wrap one gift in the Kwanzaa paper. One year D made a wrapping paper tuxedo out of the Kwanzaa paper for one of my sister's gift. I just wrapped a gift in the Kwanzaa paper... I can't tell you who it is for.
2. I cannot drink caffeine after 5 pm or else I cannot sleep at night. This is a phenomenon that just started in the last year. I think it has something with turning thirty. Tonight I had to stay up to wrap presents so I downed some coffee. Guess why I am still up?
3. When I was... 10? 11? I got my hand stuck between the beaters of a hand mixer. I was trying to put the beaters in the mixer and I had plugged it in. Never plug in the mixer before putting in the beaters! My hand slipped, turned it on and my hand got stuck. It was very painful.
4. I used to play tennis. That you probably know. What you might not know is one summer I went to a tennis day camp. One afternoon the counselors were having a trivia contest and I knew the answer to one of the questions (Stefi Graff) and I won a free tennis racket, which I gave to my dad, who also played tennis.
5. I have never seen any of the Rocky movies. I never saw Star Wars until I was in college. I have not seen any of the Alien movies. I think I need to do a little pop culture catchup.
And that's it. 5 things. Did you know any of that about me? (Family members don't count!)
Well, good thing I checked first. I was just about to tag you thrice!
