Thursday Thirteen: 13 #FunFacts About Me

20/10/2011

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.
Picture
If you want to know what I smell like...
2) I love the smell of snow.
Picture
*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.
Picture
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.
Picture
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.
Picture
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.
Picture
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.
Picture
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.
Picture
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?

I love the smell of snow too, but we rarely ever get it here in MS, so I have to take advantage of it when it does happen. :) Great list, Kimberly! Happy Thursday!

Number #14 is quite true! :)

I wrote my first full length novel from 16 to 17. What an awesome age to learn you can start and finish a manuscript, right?

Happy T13,

I wish my characters would go away once the books is written. But no. They stick around for the revisions too. I've got hundreds of them still hanging around.

Neat facts. You wouldn't want my puppy to jump on you for a cuddle. She has a bone and will definitely have bone breath! A maple syrup kitty sounds much better.

I didn't know Cracker Barrel had their own lotion.
Where do you find these guys? Wait...don't tell me- I'd rather see them on Thursday's when I visit.

:)

Have a great Thursday!

Kitty smells like Maple Syrup? Kitty can come be with me. All my kitties smelled like cat.

That was fun, thank you.

I loved it when my cat came in from outside smelling like sunshine. But there are too many dangers out there and all three stay in full time now. Happy belated TT and thanks for sharing the wonderful picture of you and your husband. Your blog is always a delight.
