I've decided that I'm going to make a bigger effort to post more on my blog. I've been absent lately because I've been a little depressed...more than a little actually. I've even tried to get all of my negative, bad, sad, and undesirable feelings and thoughts out of my mind and onto a blog. It's my negative blog. It's been really been therapeutic. I feel good enough to start posting on here again. Since this blog is for posterity, I can't have a lot of "life sucks" and "woe is me" on here.
Now I've decided to just do a random post about things I like. These are things that you might not know about me. A small glimpse into what makes up the complexities of Heidi. They might also just be things that have happened as of late that I like. I would in turn invite you to share an interesting tidbit about yourselves in the comment section. I promise not to misuse the information that is given...for less than a 5 spot.
And here we go....
I love the banjo. LOVE. I love the tin sounding melodies that come from it's plucked strings. This love may owe itself to
Kermit the Frog and The Rainbow Connection, but I digress. Even that creepy kid from Deliverance can't change my mind. I will say though, if a man can play the banjo, I have an instant attraction to him. It forced my crush to intensify for Ed Helms. Yes, Jeff knows and he's coping.
My kids wanting to cook dinner. YES!!! Sure Abbey. If you want to make pancakes, you go right ahead my dear. Oh Lindsay! Grilled cheese sandwiches and
"tomato soup" that isn't really tomato soup but tomato sauce that you added water and salt to and so in your mind is now "tomato soup" sounds lovely! Thank you girls so much.
Hollywood gossip. Oh, it's embarrassing and kinda trashy, but I love it! I don't buy any magazines, I just check my websites. TMZ is the main one. I'm not proud of this one, but I like it none the less.
I like caramel better than chocolate. Now, don't misunderstand, I loooove chocolate. I just looooooooove caramel. When I was little one of my most favorite treats was just a simple Kraft caramel. When I'd go trick or treating Kraft caramels were as highly prized as a Hershey bar.
I love the Beatles. I discovered this love at the age of 15. It all started with the Double Blue album and I was hooked. I couldn't get enough. I've spread the Beatles love everywhere I could. I've helped add a few members the the Beatles army. When I worked at Michael's Craft Store in my teens, I would take my breaks next door at the Future Shop. I spent a good portion of my puny pay at that store. Every other week I'd add another Beatles album to my collection. When I was pregnant with Abbey, I wanted to name her Penny Lane. Instead I named her after my favorite album, Abbey Road. My hope is that one day Abbey will marry someone with the last name of Rhodes.
I love laundry products. I can't go to a grocery store without finding the laundry isle and smelling my way through it. I have a few different detergents and softeners at my disposal at all times. I always have Tide in some form. I try different brands and smells all the time though. I visit all of the major players websites to see whats new and coming to a store near me. I have also been know to see what people have at their house...and then smell them all. Jeff thinks I have a problem. I think it just gives me character.
I really like Goodwill. I've loved thrift shops since my teen years. I frequent the one by Lindsay's ballet on Wed and Thurs. I've found some pretty sweet stuff. That's actually a really good post idea. Stuff I got at Goodwill.
Well, that's it for now. I guess I should've said that these were going to be things I love, not just like. Oh well. :)
with this thrown over to give me a little bit of dignity. Oh, I think it worked.
