Things I Know About Me.

Posted on July 22, 2011 18 Comments

Here are some things you may or may not know about me. Here are some things you may or may not want to know about me.

I don’t like making school lunches or putting away laundry.

My favourite pair of PJ pants has a HUGE hole in them, but I can’t bare (get it?) to get rid of them, cause they are so well worn, soft and comfy.

I always wash my own clothes last so I often end up with the ten year old undies that have no elastic as my only clean pair.

I am indecisive, a planner, lazy, untidy, a tight arse, generous, shy and a contradiction.

I don’t like chocolate much, but have a new found love of pepsi or frozen (has to be frozen) coke.

I sleep with a male who is not my husband.

I am fascinated by people but often too shy to strike up a conversation.

I am currently really forgetful, but I used to have a fabulous memory.

I am still busy figuring out who I am and what I want to be when I grow up.

I’m attending blogopolis next weekend, but not the pre-conference events and probably not the post conference events because I’ll have our smallest with me, and I’m a little bit sad about that. I am reminding myself that my kids will be big and grown soon enough and then, then it will be my turn to party…

I have some really really great friends and one of them blogs at Yay For Home and hosts the Things I Know link up… so go… link up!

    I like all these things about you, especially the PJ’s thing.

    For the same reason, I won’t be party girl at blogopolis either. And a bit sad about it too. But like you, am reminded that my turn will come one day.

    I used to have a fabulous memory too and sooo wish I was more outgoing too. I’d love to go to predrinks but that’s a bit too daring for me on my own, hopefully I’ll be feeling a little more relaxed for post drinks. lol.

      Oh you should go to pre-drinks! I know lots of really lovely friendly people who are going and despite it being scary I know you’ll have a good time…
      Hopefully I’ll be at post drinks for a little bit (baby in tow) so make sure you say hi then if not before!

    I had to throw my comfy pj’s out as they had a massive hole and I couldn’t wear them as it was just too hard – a very sad day. Hehe. See you next week!

    I hate making school lunches. My pjs have basically lost their elastic in the pants but they are worn in and comfy, so I wear them even though they tend to fall down a lot! Blogopolis should be fantastic, enjoy the master classes and the networking you’ll get to do even if you can’t make it to all the social events…have a great time!

    I know that I’m really forgetful now too and I often say really dumb things. I know that you’re an amazing person and incredibly talented. :)

    “I always wash my own clothes last so I often end up with the ten year old undies that have no elastic as my only clean pair. ”

    This is me as well.

    And I loath folding clean washing so we end up living out of laundry baskets for days on end, then husband gets sick of it and puts his stuff away, then my girls get too distressed about the clothes hunt so I put their clothes away and that just leaves my stuff.

    Judging by the above comments I think we need to start some sort of “we have holey pjs and are proud of it group”…my fave pair has a hole too! I’m not going to any pre or post drinks either. Not going to the pre-drinks as I will be having dinner with my lovely friend who is letting me sleep on her couch while I’m in Melbourne and I’m flying home to my babies straight after the conference. So I am thinking that there will be a few of us keen to party in a year or two :-)

      I am definitely applying for president of the group… I now have three pairs of very holey PJ pants that I refuse to give up!

    I *always* wash my own clothes last, too! Except my last pair of clean undies are usually the too small pair! LOL

    Yep, with you on the pjs – why get rid of them if there’s still some fabric there??? – and lamenting the loss of my once-good memory. Still don’t know what I might be when I grow up, very shy but also LOUD, so also a big walking contradiction.

    So grateful that there are others who are attending blogopolis but can’t do pre- and post-events because of littlies…Was a bit sad. Would really love to but just not possible with little one who’s neither into food nor formula, just mum! Looking forward to meeting you!

    HEHE we have a few things in common there. I too sleep with a man who is not my husband. I too HATE HATE HATE putting away laundry/clothes and haven’t done so for about 4 months now… yes pretty bad on the to do list this week. I too am shy in striking up conversations. I too am still trying to figure myself out.
    I don’t however have holey PJs but if this holey pj club starts up perhaps I’ll consider ripping one lol…
