Oh Gee! 5 Things About Me?

Okay… well, first of all, that little bundle of Sunshine, Charissa, is the one who tagged Amy and I. But I know Amy’s packing and preparing to move today, so her turn to post might have to wait a day or two. Anyway, thanks, Charissa. We appreciate all your kind words and playful support.

Here goes…

1. My Dad is one of the most inspirational entrepreneurs I’ve ever met.

This picture was his great idea, along with a bunch of other special shaped hot air balloons like a flying cow and a house.

At one point he held the World Record for long distance flight in a hot air balloon. Now, he’s given up hot air balloons for inflatable shelters and hospitals and stuff. It’s pretty intense compared to floating around in the sky with a giant dinosaur.

2. I almost exclusively wear skirts. It’s rare, rare, rare that I’ll wear pants.

3. My survival kit includes: a curling iron, waterproof mascara, lip liner, lip stick, lip gloss, eyebrow tweezers and eyebrow curlers. If I have those, I’m a happy diva no matter where I go. Oh, and a razor, because even if it is natural, nature untamed can be ugly.

4. I had a spaghetti eating hamster named “Lint” that escaped through a hole in the wall of my apartment when I was in university. And every once in a while, I kinda wonder how he might have ended up. Dried? Fried? Lost and alone? Yuck.

5. My mom’s real name is Gertruida Jocoba Maria Hof. She’s “mom” in The Powder Room. And for every project I ever did, I never had a better supporter than her. I loooove you, Mom!

If we have to tag people… I’m going to wait for Amy to finish hers, first.

Mmmmuah!
