random facts

I have found myself at a loss lately of what to blog about. Nothing big and exciting has happened in our lives lately, and since I don't always feel comfortable sharing my everyday, innermost thoughts with the whole world, I am left with nothing. We have slipped into habitual everyday life and find the weeks meshing together. They look a lot like this: work, FHE, work, eat, Zumba, work, sleep, work, dance, eat, work, do the laundry, sleep, etc. See why I can't think of anything?

So, I have decided to make this post a list of random facts about the two of us. 8 random facts about me, and 8 random facts about Tom. Hopefully I can come up with some good stuff that not all of our readers already know about us. Here we go.

Kimberly
1. I can't curl my tongue.
2. I have been hang gliding twice.
3. I am half Portuguese.
4. I've had braces (twice on the bottom).
5. I get the hiccups a lot. This was even a common occurrence for me while in the womb.
6. You can find me (as a little girl) on the cover of two books. look up "Lizzie Logan Wears Purple Sunglasses" and "Lizzie Logan Gets Married"
7. I hate the smell of carbon paper.
8. I do not like bacon. And why is it found in everything? There is a Jack-in-the-Box billboard by our apartment that says "marry bacon". Gag.

Tom
1. Tom knows a few African words that he picked up on his mission, and we're talking the cool "clicking" type of words that sound like something off of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi
2. Tom hates celery. He'll pick it out of soup, salads, stir fry, everything.
3. A few years ago, Tom had surgery due to an over-bite and now has metal plates in his face.
4. He is a big animal lover, especially cats.
5. Tom is super super ticklish.
6. He loves to draw blood and is always checking out people's veins. Creepy weird, I know.
7. Tom's most favorite snack ever is jerky.
8. Before he learned how to play the violin, Tom would play the spoons in his family's band.

And there you have it! Random facts about us. I hope you learned something new.

Tune in next time for a hopefully more meaningful and fulfilling blog post from yours truly. Cheers!

  3. I hate to say this Kim but now that I know how much Tome loves jerky I have to wonder if he only married you because of your dads jerky. He does make the best.
