This week's post is inspired by a Twitter conversation I had with J. Lea Lopez this morning. So, without further ado, please allow me to present
13 #FunFacts About Me
1) My hubby says I naturally smell like the lotion called "Love" which is sold at Cracker Barrel stores in the US.
If you want to know what I smell like...
2) I love the smell of snow.
*snnnniiiiiiifffffff!*
3) I wrote my first full-length novel when I was seventeen.
4) My longest-standing crush lasted over 16 years and led to me traveling to London for the first time. David Gilmour was the object of that affection.
This was perfection for me, until I met my hubby.
5) I form crushes on my characters, too. I think this is why they don't leave me until the story is written.
I'm sure you can understand why, yes?
6) I'm already planning on taking the train to Modena for the departure of a stage in next year's Giro d'Italia.
Rumor has it that Jakob, here, will captain his team at the Giro. Gee, I wonder why I wanna go?
7) Going back to number one, my hubby makes a point of sniffing me before he leaves the house, every day. LOL! I do the same to him too.
8) Numbers one, two and seven are to be expected, because I have a very sensitive sense of smell.
9) This morning, I gave my kitty a kiss on the head and she smelled like maple syrup.
Maple syrup which purrs. Occasionally.
10) I enjoy eating meals out or getting takeaway dinners far more than I should. I get excited days in advance of a meal out.
11) I had originally intended to save my money and move to the UK if I could. Just a few months after putting this plan into motion, I met Alessandro and moved to Italy less than a year later.
12) I cried tears of joy when Oliver Zaugg of Leopard Trek won Il Lombardia (the cycling race formerly known as il Giro di Lombardia) this year.
Oliver and family after the race. Squee!
13) The fact that my beloved Leopard Trek are merging with Team Radio Shack displeases me greatly. I pray they'll at least keep something closer to the LT kit, but I'm not gonna hold my breath.
Oh, I almost forgot - a bonus #FunFact about me!
14) I have a great appreciation for the male form, don'cha know?

Seriously. Could you possibly blame me?
