As I prepare to make this public (aka - get the nerve to pull the trigger), I thought I'd do a quick post on some random tidbits about me. You will quickly note these are not intended to be serious, nor is it a comprehensive list.
1) Kelly - with a "y," not an i, ey, ye, or any other random variety. I heard the "Kelly song" from Cheers about 8,000 times growing up. (look it up - Woody sang it to his girlfriend, Kelly...."Kelly? K-E-L-L-Y? Because she's Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, Kelly of mine....")
2) I don't like polka dots.
3) I grew up in a Presbyterian Church, got married in a United Methodist Church, am going to a Presbyterian seminary, and am in the process of being ordained as a United Methodist Elder. In the middle of all of those moments, I have visited Baptist, Non-Denominational, Lutheran, and Bible churches.
4) Part of my childhood blankie was sewn into my wedding dress. It is known as "the rag" now, but still exists and will probably be buried with me someday. My 4-year old son thinks "it's gross."
5) I went most of my life never having a nickname and always wanted one. I now have more than I can even remember. Most commonly used ones are KSho and Keezer.
6) I never wanted to go to UT because I thought the campus was a bunch of weirdo hippies. During my junior year of high school, I came here to play in the Texas State Solo & Ensemble contest with my friends, loved it, and decided to apply so I could be in the Longhorn band and study business. I'm now somewhat of a weirdo Austin hippy (in my own way).
7) I hate crafts. Construction paper, scissors, glue, pipe cleaners, pinterest...all give me the heebie jeebies.
8) I don't often use the word hate.
9) My son was born on the 8th at 8lb 8oz at 8min till 8pm. What's his favorite number? 7 (Mine is 8!)
10) I play the trombone and aspire to be a better harmonica player and a quasi-guitar player. I am best suited for karaoke though, or instruments made by Fisher Price.
