Another A to Z Survey

Another A to Z Survey

Age: 28 (29 on the 29th of November- finally my golden birthday!)

Bed size: Full. Yes I am married, so I have to share this full sized bed. This is the same bed we got when we were first married and living in a 500 square foot studio apartment. If that isn’t bad enough, we share the bed with three miniature dachshunds. I can’t wait to get a bigger bed!
 
Here's the bed that we are still using (although without the leopard print comforter) and what it looked like in our studio apartment.
 
Chore you hate: I actually like cleaning, so I don’t mind most of the chores around the house and do most of them. I’m not fond of weeding. If I did it more often, then maybe it wouldn’t be so bad.

Dogs: Three miniature longhair dachshunds:

Sebastion our six year old black and tan
Benjamin our one year old black and tan dapple- and yes that is me under the covers with Benji taking over my pillow
Lilly our two year old red brindle

Essential start of your day: I always take the dogs out to go potty right away. Then I get to cooking myself a healthy breakfast that usually involves egg whites.

Favorite color: I like a lot of colors, but my favorites are pink, green, purple, and black.

Gold or silver: Gold. That goes against what most people say, but it is the most flattering to my coloring.

Height: 5’6”

Instruments I play: Since you are asking an instrumentalist, my primary instrument is flute (in which I’m sorely out of practice). My secondary instrument in college was sax. I never had one to actually keep and play after college, but I think it would come back to me. I can also play a little bit of piano, but am sorely out of practice on that too.
 
One of my senior pics had to include the flute!
 
Job title: Elementary music teacher

Kids: I have fur babies for now. I would like to have kids in a few years- probably two kids.

Live: Northwest Indiana

Mom’s name: Cindy

Nicknames: I don’t really have a nickname now, but some past nicknames were Kam, Sunshine, and Kaiser.

Overnight hospital stays: None as of now

Pet peeve: People who are disrespectful.

Quote from a movie: There are many movies out there that I like and have great quotes, but I rounded up a few of my favorites for you.

            My favorite book is Gone with the Wind and I love the movie too.

 

            I also love movies that are more on the stupid funny side like Mel Brooks and Monty Python movies.  There are tons of good lines in Spaceballs, but here is a short one to watch.

 
Spaceballs- Mog's intro
 
 
Monty Python and the Holy Grail- The Black Knight. I did this with one of my friends for oratorical contest in high school. I believe we got 2nd place for humorous dialogue.
 

 
 The last clip is from a Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode. The movie they are riffing is called Space Mutiny and it has some the best lines in all of MST3K. Here’s a video featuring quotes and nicknames for the main character of this movie set to music.
 
Right or left-handed: Right

Siblings: One sister who is three years younger than me. Another interesting fact is that we are both teachers (although I’m a music teacher and she is an elementary/special ed. teacher).
 
Here's a picture of us from her 8th grade graduation.
 
Time you wake up: Sometime between 5:00-5:30 when I’m working and whenever I please in the summer.

Underwear: Well, I wear underwear that is appropriate for the outfit I’m wearing. Isn’t that all anyone needs to know about my underwear?

Vegetable you dislike: Asparagus

What makes you run late: I’m not the run late kind of person. I’m always early for just about everything.

X-rays you have had done: Teeth, wrists, left ankle

Yummy food you make: I’m not a big cook, but I’m working on that. My friends said my roasted green beans were yummy. I also like my “healthy” pizza and breakfast cookies.

Zoo animal: I haven’t been to the zoo since I was a kid, but I do get to see animals at Animal Kingdom when we go to Disney World. I’m not so interested in having a favorite animal as much as trying to get a good picture of one.
