sprinkles of this and that

I've been feeling all sorts of random lately.

I 100% blame the weather. For those of you that don't know, I 100% despise cold weather. I don't care that Houston is swelteringly hot most of the time, I like it that way. That's why I live here. So when it's in the 70's and sunny outside, I die a little bit being stuck inside an office for 8-9 hours a day. Seriously depressing. I actually look forward to when my coworkers take 'smoke breaks' because I'll slip outside with them occasionally so that I can bask in the sunlight and warm weather. (C'mon Vitamin D! And no, I absolutely do not smoke).

So to keep with any randomness I may be feeling right now (and continue procrastinating my work life), I'll share a few more tidbits with you:

1. I'm obsessed with blogging. And by blogging, I mean blog stalking. If I'm interested in what you have to say, I will religiously read your blog. So keep on posting!

2. My engagement/wedding bands are my most prized possessions. For those of you engaged/married couples out there - you know how when you first get engaged you can't stop staring at your hand and the diamond now sitting your left hand ring finger? Well I still do that. A lot. And no, I don't have a ridiculously huge diamond, I just really like my ring.

3. I eat an apple a day, and what do you know - I never have to go to the doctor.

4. I LOVE not having kids right now (and this is no knock to those of you that do, I ADORE reading about your kiddos and looking at their precious pictures, I fantasize about when we do have kids, and all yalls cute blogs about your kids are the source of any baby twinges I may have... but it is always fleeting for me because I just love that I get to keep my husband all to my selfish little self right now)

5. I'm (whoa, I was about to say 'obsessed' but that leads people to believe you have a problem, and I don't) a workout-lover. And no, I don't have insane weight ideals, nor do I crash diet, go on crazy workout binges, or anything of the sort. I just really enjoy being healthy and feeling good in my own body.

6. I used to hate running. Now, I love it!

7. Cooking is one of my favorite past times. I seriously love food. You can check out Britt's post about being a foodie and just scratch out her name and put mine in. I think about food 99% of the time. It really throws my coworkers for a loop. I eat all.day.long. but its mainly fruits and vegetables. Which brings me to...

8. I lovelovelove fruits and vegetables. Oh man. Fruit is easily one of my favorite things to munch on. And I really don't discriminate. But...

9. As much as I love fruits and vegetables, I hate olives of any kind. Eck. They make me want to gag. I also do not like cooked carrots.

10. Sean thinks I have an issue with food texture. I vehemently deny this on a regular basis and then totally judge food by its texture. I hate when he's right

11. I am a habitual procrastinator with everything except getting out of bed in the morning and working out. I will pop out of bed at 5:05 and workout, and then begin my long day of procrastinating.

:)

What are some random things about YOU? I just love not feeling awkward after posts like these, so please, share away!

  2. I'm pretty new around here, so i'll share some randomness of my own. I set my alarm for random times near when I need to get up- so 6:57 or 7:04. I wore my ering & wedding ring on my right hand for about 2 years & then one day decided to switch it back to the "correct" hand. Growing up, I'd only eat PB&J on white bread & a turkey/meat sandwich on wheat bread. Hope that's enough for ya!

  4. Love this post!! We're so much alike!

    1. Obsessed,I'll say it, Obsessed with working out (not in the bad way though :-) )
    2. I'm totally a blog stalker
    3. I hate being indoors all day in the office. I get so depressed if I don't get outside to see what the weather was like during the day.
    4. I was staring at my wedding/engagement ring today. I love it because it's mine and it's special.
    5. I told my track teacher in Jr. high there was no way I was running cross country (2 miles at a time-yeah right) who knew I'd be running 26.2 one day!

    But, I love olives!!

  5. I too am religious about the time I wake up, however I wake up at 6:07am everyday. Something about waking up at a "normal time" (6:05...6:10) just doesn't work for me!

  6. I am the same way about textures of food. I won't eat baked apples because I don't like the change in texture of the apple after it is cooked. Yuck!

    I also won't eat fruit salad because I don't like fruit to taste like other fruit. Like a banana being tainted by a strawberry. It really grosses me out.
