in the mood for a meme

This one has been going around and I'm snatching it up because I'm at a complete loss for words otherwise. So...here goes: 8 random things you don't already know about me.

1) Every morning I have a cup of coffee and these english muffins smothered in butter and honey.

2) I've seen the musical Rent seven times. Most often I was sitting in a front row lottery seat. At a performance in Raleigh, the actor playing Roger tossed his guitar pick in my lap at the end of the first scene. I still have that guitar pick.

3) I was an overly emotional person until Canon was born. Now I hardly ever cry. But for some reason the moment a baby is born on A Baby Story gets me every freakin' time.

4) During my freshman year at UNC, I was a midshipman in the Naval ROTC. The day I quit was one of the happiest in my life.

5) I hate buffet-style restaurants. Ewww.

6) When I lived in New York, I was an acting student at HB Studio. The school boasts alumni such as Robert DeNiro, Anne Bancroft, Matthew Broderick, Sarah Jessica Parker, Sigourney Weaver, Christopher Reeve.... I quickly learned I was in way over my head, but I kept my student i.d. card as proof that I was a student there.

7) I wish I had the confidence to get my shit together, really learn photography and start my own business.

8) Other than my wedding gown, I only have one dress in my closet.

I'm tagging my girl Dawn with this one.

Love this post cuz I always love learning more about you! I'd pay you for your photography skills - what more do you need to learn?! Let your pictures do the talking!

And hey, if you want to boost your portfolio to include more than just beautiful kids (as if that isn't enough!), I'll offer Dan for your taking when we come visit. OK, maybe I'll join him for a shot or two. :-)

You know Hitler didn't like buffets either. Seriously, they are great. :P

I hate buffet style restaurants too! After working my first job at 16 at the Western Sizzlin, I have stayed away ever since. Ignorance is bliss, I mean it!

Nilsa - Poor Dan being offered up as my photo experiment. He must really love you.

After a visit to Golden Corral with Alex's family, I'm sticking by my disdain for buffets.

I liked learning more about you- you are totally cool! Always thought that, and think it even more now!
