Ten Quirky Questions

Hi!
I thought I'd scour the internet for some quirky questions to answer.  I love reading question and answer posts on people's blogs.  I hope you enjoy getting to know a few new things about me!

Do you take the shampoos and conditioner bottles from hotel?
I do!  I love how practical they are.  You can always use a mini bottle when you go to the gym or a trip where you stay at a friend's.  My favorite hotel lagniappe is the little sewing kit.  I keep one in my desk drawer at work!

What is your biggest pet peeve?
I absolutely CANNOT tolerate people who are rude to waiters.  Is that a pet peeve?  It has to qualify for something because it literally makes me crazy!

Do you chew your pens and pencils?
Ummmm... (pulling pen out of mouth).  I am embarrassed to admit that I am a pen chewer. I always have been.  There is nothing worse than looking down and realizing you've been chewing on the pen you borrowed from your boss at a conference...

Do you believe in ghosts?
I don't, but I am completely scared by ghost movies.  It doesn't make sense if I don't believe, but I don't think I slept for two days straight after seeing Sixth Sense.

What was your first concert?
I grew up wishing that I could say it was New Kids, but it was actually Kenny G.  For a long time that was also my most embarrassing moment!

Have you ever cried because you were so happy?
I mean the Saints did win the Superbowl!  I cried like a baby when Drew Brees hoisted up the Lombardi trophy and then cried even more when he lifted up his little boy.

Do you crave sweet or salty food?
Ohhh...  I actually crave the combination.  It's why salted caramel is my favorite thing in the world.

How late is "sleeping in" to you?
Until my trip to NYC over Labor Day with my sister, the latest I had slept since I got pregnant last March was probably 7:45.  I did, however, sleep until 10:00 am in NYC.  It was amazing until I realized I had slept through so much of the morning.  Waking up really early gives you so much more time to do fun things!

What is a food that you never thought you would try, but then 
tried and liked? 
Blue cheese.  I hated blue cheese one day, and the next day I had it on a salad and loved it.  I've never looked back.  A good creamy cambozola on a cracked pepper cracker = heaven!

DJ or band at a wedding?

I love a good band.  It adds something so special to an event.  We had a band at our wedding and my college roommate joined them to sing our first dance, At Last.  It was such a great wedding moment.
