I've Been Meme'd...Midori...Midori....Midori...It's All About Meme...

I was tagged by Marc Grossman....so here it goes.... I am going to share some real human facts about me.

 

1. In high school I had to take math for 4 years.  That's right...I stunk at math.  I had 1 teacher for two years..

I hate to admit it I gave it everything I got and earned 2 credits in 4 years...the funny part...When I got into real estate...

The teacher who I had for 2 years in math...hired me to sell his condo and assist in helping him purchase a home. 

I wonder did he think I improved in my math skills over time or did he feel sorry for me?

2.   In the corner of my eye I have a birthmark, often times when I meet someone for the first time they politely tell me I have makeup in the corner of my eye...

Little do they know its a birthmark and it seems to create a lot of conversation.  Friday, I went to the eye doctor and it's official...

He said it himself...once again it was determined that the makeup in my eye is definitely a birthmark! 

Glad he cleared that up for me!

3. When I was 18 I was extremely shy, I went to a Cheap Trick and Molly Hatchet concert with my sister and friends.

While waiting for the show to start...The Cheap Trick crew worked the audience looking for girls to get on stage with the bands. 

One of the guys from Cheap Trick asked me to join them on stage....I hid behind my sister and missed that golden opportunity. 

If they asked me today..it would be a totally different reaction! 

4.  My favorite food is whole chickens. The kind you can buy at the grocery.  It's like I turn into a cat...my mouth waters...and I begin to purr..and I'll swat you if you try to get any of my whole chicken....

Chicken legs don't have the same affect...but those whole chickens....yum yum....

Something so enticing about that whole chicken...if ever we dine together...Better order two ..there is a good chance I will not share any of it  with you...

5. Ok, now here is the winner...I am a huge Jessica Simpson fan, Travis Barker Fan and yes Jonathan the hairdresser fan..notice the pattern...

I love celebrity reality shows...and I admit...I watched the Pussycat Dolls and America's Next Top Model....from start to end. 

Now wouldn't you know it...there is a mother daughter pageant, Crowned and who do you think is one of the judges? 

Shana Moakler...Travis Barker's Ex-Wife or are they back together?...oh the drama.....

I am ready and bracing myself for some ribbing here....so if you feel compelled please do so...

Natalie-you are too funny!  I agree I like the glamorous reality shows.  Not one for survivor or big brother...for some reason....I love the celeb...reality tv. 

Just like I profess my love for whole chickens....I love...love...love hot wings...no breading...lots of hot sauce and some blue cheese or ranch dipping sauce!

Marc-Whole chickens bring out my animal instinct...try and take a piece of that chicken...not only do I purr...I hiss and I scratch...when you want to share with me...you take your life in your own hands.

As far as my eye doctor, it seems everytime I change doctors or if they have a sub...first its the concern...then the explanation...the test...and the end result....A birthmark...I am hear to tell you...no eye makeup in my eye!

Midora- I was very shy growing up too. It got me into trouble and I also missed out on things. But I was never too shy to get up and talk in front of the class, giving book reports or any oral reports and speeches. I love to get a crowd moving.Thanks for sharing more about yourself. Katerina

Midori, very funny... I like Jessica too. The Barkers are weird to me, but I guess I wouldn't know if I didn't watch it a few times.

Chicken and living in Florida ? I would be a lobster junkie.

 Hi Midori... I see we have more in common than I thought. I sucked at math as well. It didn't make sense to me until I started trading stocks on the NASDAQ for a few years. For some reason a $ in front of the numbers helped it all make sense to me.

 I haven't heard of Cheap Trick in awhile, I loved their music, great meme!

Midori- suck at math? check. Watch Americas Top Model and The Pussy Cat Dolls Show from beginning to end, and then watch the mega marathon, yep. I get my whole chicken from Costco! And I LOVE it! LOL. I wasn't painfully shy when I was growing up, I sang all through elementary school, high school and college, but I DREAD networking events! Great to know more about you!

Katerina-funny thing growing up I was a cheerleader, wrestling manager and President of Future Business Leaders of America....when it came to tasks I wasn't shy just like yourself but at 17 an amazing thing happened to me...I started to transform into a woman...I was very uncomfortable...new reactions...new people and new attention...so when those fellows came at me....I got nervous.  I still have shy moments...rarely....but when I do...it's obvious.

Hi Missy-you are right...lobsters...Florida...I love them too!  But I like to keep lobster where it belongs...special....there is an all you can restuarant in Orlando called Boston Lobster....all the lobster you can eat for $30.00...I've been there....that night I decided to eat my money's worth....4 lobsters, a few crab legs and a few shrimp....that was it...no veggies...no desert....just seafood and a lot of it.  It was so good.

My husband just watched and told me....after all that go wash your mouth out! :)  He hates seafood....No teeth brushing...no kisses.  I opted to brush my teeth.

Nothing tops the whole bird though...not turkey...not steak...love my whole birds!

Marti-Hmmmm....doesn't surprise me with your creative mind and ideas.  Math?????  My son's would tutor me...all of them got to pre-calculus....me business math allowed me to graduate...and Algebra...I took it twice...my brother would tutor me....that was worse than failing...or facing my teacher!  I dreaded it every time.  You are right $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ always help!

Yes Cheap Trick was my first concert I had ever gone to....once I got a taste of concerts...I started going to lots of them....

Alecia-it was fun...and its amazing when you poke fun at yourself...I do it all the time.  It was fun sharing and I can think of so many funny stories.... My shyness began when I started to change from girl to woman....it was a scary time for me.  I did not like it!  To much attention...a different kind...the kind I felt uncomfortable with.
