The Raving Gecko 2.0 recently introdced me to the Get To Know Me Tag of the blogging world, and since my blog is still quite new, I figured doing one of my own would be a great way to reveal the writter behind the posts.

Get To Know Me…

https://www.instagram.com/p/BrLvOLXANvC/

Which city did you grow up in?

The small town of Burnet, Texas: the home of the Bluebonnet Festival. Oh, and GO BULLDOGS!

Are you an introvert or an extrovert?

I am seriously 50/50. I am happy and bubbly and love people, but my social battery tends to die out quickly, and I need to recharge in peace.

How tall are you?

5 ft, 3 in. I am vertically challenged, and hold no resentment to that fact! Dynamite…small packages. You know… 🧨🎁

Piercings or tattoos?

My ears are pierced and my navel is pierced. I have a mermaid scales tattoo and plan to get a penguin and a rose, each one with sentimental purpose. 🧜‍♀️🐧🥀

Righty or lefty?

Lefty!

How many pairs of shoes do you own?

Umm… 1 pair winter boots, 1 pair black knee-highs, 1 pair cowgirl boots (I mean, I live in Texas), 1 pair hiking boots, 2 pairs booties, 3 pairs flats, 5 pairs heels in various colors and styles, and 1 pair water shoes. Oh, and 1 pair athletic shoes.

Ironically, I don’t even care to collect shoes. My materialic true love is swim suits!

What is the best gift you’ve ever been given?

My daddy gave me his American flag zippo before he passed away, and though I have few uses for it, I have always kept it and treasured it.

What is your favorite holiday?

It is a tie between Halloween and Christmas, which explains my love for The Nightmare Before Christmas.

I LOVE giving gifts, hot chocolate while watching Christmas movies, and christmas lights. There really is something to the saying, “The magic of Christmas.”

I also have a love for the scary and weird. Everyone of all ages can dress up as whoever or whatever they want to be.

Have you ever had a secret admirer?

Well, if I did they never made it known. 🤷‍♀️

How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?

Eh, 30 minutes. I usually shower in the evenings, and I rock the natural look on a daily basis. BB cream, eyeliner, mascara, blush, done.

What is your favorite movie?

This is a hard question to answer! 1. Beauty and the Beast 2. Happy Feet/Phantom of the Opera 3. Nightmare Before Christmas

Is your glass half full or half empty?

I wish I could say it was always half full, I have occasional days that it is half empty. I’m generally a positive person, though.

What was your first job?

Waitressing at a small town restaurant.

What is your favorite song?

I am obsessed with all music, and my ‘shuffle all’ playlist shows that. You can hear a rap song, followed by hard rock, followed by princess karaoke. Halsey’s song Nightmare resonates with me on many levels.

How many languages do you speak?

One and a half. English (obviously) and some spanish, but working toward fluency.

I would love to read other people’s answers, in the comments, as well as any other questions you would like to know the answers to! Thanks for reading the random facts that make up…me!
