You think you know (me) but you have no idea…

The blog world is a weird place. We all read each other’s daily posts and feel like we know each other. Sometimes we even get a chance to meet and are pretty much instant friends.

So some of you may know me in “real” life…but if you don’t here’s what you probably should know about me.  And if we ever meet, you’ll be prepared to eat carrots, drive fast and not be offended by my off compliments.

1. I eat weird snacks. I have been known to take down an entire bag of baby carrots at a clip…..or an entire bag of string beans. I love vegetables. It may be strange and odd, but it’s true. I’ve always been a fan.

2. I buy something from amazon.com almost weekly..if not more. It’s my go-to place. Goji berries? check. New phone cover? check. Workout dvd? They have it all.

3. Going to the food store is fun for me. Okay maybe you knew that one.

4. I’m obsessed with white t shirts. Long sleeve and short, I can’t get enough. I’ve been known to accuse people of taking mine….and getting really mad about it, sorry sister.

5. I love cards….but it has to be Hallmark. I’ve been known to stand in the card aisle at CVS or a Hallmark store for awhile. If someone is with me, they usually monitor me to make sure I have a plan going into the store…no plan = hours lost + a lot of money spent.

6. I’m very sarcastic, which doesn’t always come across great. On the opposite end, sometimes I say things that come out very, very wrong…when I really mean well. Kind of like a back handed compliment…gone worse. You don’t even want examples….and please don’t email my sister, husband or mother to find out. Yikes.

7. I always have food on me because I melt down. No food within 30 minutes to an hour of being hungry….run away from me, fast.

8. I like to be home before it’s dark out….unless it’s it’s summer time. Then I don’t care when I get home. My husband calls it “Summer Cole”. Totally different person.  (Oh, 8.5 my family and friends call me Cole.)

9. I fall asleep on the couch 5 out of 7 nights a week. I also insist on picking out movies…and then fall asleep…every time.

10. I don’t get mad or annoyed easily, but I get pretty fired up over bad customer service, slow drivers and rude people in the food store. No patience for those people.

11. I thought I was going to be a teacher for my entire life since I was in elementary school. Now I feel very, very differently.

And that’s it. Now you really know me.

Happy Friday!
