About This Blogger

I was reading blogs all day yesterday instead of doing laundry and what not and I found quite a few that had an About Me post and I thought it was a great idea. I hope no one minds me snaggin' it. So here it goes...


1. I play the Bass guitar. I'm not very good at it, but its fun.


2. I have weird taste in food. I absolutely hate red meat and I cannot drink dark pop (or soda...however you like to say it). I like chicken, turkey and Sprite. Oh...and I hate fish.

3. I had cat scratch fever when I was in the 6th grade. Yes, it's real. My arm swelled up like a balloon and I absolutely could not bend it. They were going to poke it with a needle and do a biopsy but I screamed and ran out of the room. They gave me medicine instead and it healed right up. Stupid doctors and needles.

4. I dabble in photography.

5. I drew this at work one day when I was bored and then had to draw one for each of my friends.

Cabookie is my nickname FYI. Don't ask.


6. I'm terrified of bugs. Any bug, but especially spiders.
Just posting this pic gave me the creeps.

7. If you've ever read my About Me page, you know that I love turtles. Or you may have gathered from the pink one on the title. Either way, I have proof.


So there ya go! Seven things you probably never cared to know about me!

Please never post a pic of a spider again. ;)

Now THAT is something I have no problem complying with!

These were all really fun facts! Great pictures, and I love the tattoo. ;)

Tress said...

I came here through Epbot, and now I think we might've been seperated at birth...I play bass (here's my band http://www.myspace.com/vibrolas), I had cat scratch fever when I was 4 and nearly died from it (and I have to explain to people that it's not just a song about STDs!), I'm an amatuer photographer, I'm an artist (actually went to school for that), I'm ridiculously afraid of spiders, and I have a lizard tattoo (ok, so it's not a turtle, but still). The only thing that didn't match was the food! Also, the drs told me I needed my gallbladder removed because I kept throwing up. Luckily I figured out I was allergic to a women's multi vitamin before they scheduled surgery. Hope you are much improved and great blog! ~Leila

Hornetgirl...We.Are.The.Same.Person! Holy Cow! That's so awesome! I am totally going to check out your band's site.

I cannot believe you had cat scratch fever, too. You are the only other person I've ever heard say that.

I am so glad you didn't have to get your gallbladder removed. It is the most slow and agonizing recovery ever.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope to see more of you!

You bet! Especially since I've spent the last couple of hours at work reading your blog ;) If you like the band, we have a facebook page, but I still haven't really figured out fb yet...

Tress said...

Haha I do love the band! You guys sound awesome!! I don't have a myspace and I don't have a facebook for the blog yet or I would totally friend you. Hmm, note to self. Future project-Make Facebook page for Jumble Mash ;)

P.S. I'm glad I gave you something to do at work!

My work has 2 speeds: crazy busy or doin' nothing at all :) What state are you in? We do a little touring every once in a while...we might be heading your way next year!

I'm in West Virginia. You *have* to email me if you are coming anywhere close to here. That would be sooooo awesome.
