Blogging 1OH1: An Intro to Manny's Mom
In honor of my 101st guest book comment (from Produceman) here is my Blogging 101. A sort of introduction to Manny’s Mom, if you will. This is an updated version of my Manny’s Mommy list that was on the left hand side of my blog.
- I am a St. John’s University Alumn. (GO Redstorm!)
- I graduated in ‘02
- I have a B.S. in Legal Studies.
- LOL…B.S. in legal studies…get it? HAHA!
- I will have my Masters in Criminal Justice (Long Island University GO...uh...PIONEERS! I think.)
- as soon as I finish that darn Thesis.
- But I rather write about Manny.
- I probably should be shot because of that.
- I work in N.Y.C.
- In a midtown law firm.
- that specializes in Intellectual Property.
- i.e. trademark, copyrights and patents.
- I hate the commute.
- I take the train. And sometimes the subway.
- I like to read when I’m on the train.
- I’m also a N.Y.S. Notary.
- My favorite sport is baseball
- I like the N.Y. Yankees/The Husband likes the N.Y. Mets
- I used to figure skate in middle school and part of high school.
- Peggy Fleming, I am not.
- Now I play golf.
- Tiger Woods, I am not.
- Stupid Driver thing.
- The Husband got me into Golf
- He got me a 9 Iron for our 1st Valentine’s Day together.
- I almost cried, I was so touched.
- I played on a kickball league this past summer.
- That’s right, I said kickball league.
- I used to have a Hyper Thyroid, and now it’s a Hypo-Thyroid.
- Apparently my thyroid is just as indecisive as me.
- I’m an Aries (April).
- I’m the youngest of three kids.
- I have two brothers.
- One of them is my (fraternal) twin.
- I entered the world 7 minutes after he did.
- I swear he shoved me aside.
- The Twin has a cat, named Bailey.
- Bailey was adopted from the same shelter as Manny
- The Twin-like similarities end there.
- You can see a picture of The Twin in my albums.
- He walked me down the aisle when I got married.
- I cried. And he had tears in his eyes. So did The Husband. My mom bawled.
- I went to California on my honeymoon.
- We drove the California coastline.
- From San Francisco to San Diego in our rented convertible.
- The ground shook during my honeymoon.
- Literally. Pesky Earthquakes!
- My favorite color is purple.
- My favorite animal [besides Manny] are seals.
- My dream job would be: seal trainer extraordinaire.
- Or maybe a Creative Consultant.
- I don’t know what that means either, but it sounds good
- I touched a dolphin once. At Seaworld.
- I went to Beer School once. At Seaworld.
- I love to travel.
- I like to go wine tasting
- and pretend I know what I’m doing.
- Manny is short for Manicotti.
- The shelter told me that his former owner named him that.
- Someone gave up Manny…can you believe that?!
- My first car was an ’88 Nissan Sentra. Jealous?
- I guess you would be if it was 1988.
- I got a new car in September!
- Who knew driving could be so much fun?
- I also have Parrot fish at home. And an algae sucker
- But three of the Parrot fish died recently. I blame The Husband.
- He knows what he did.
- So all that is left is: Plum the Parrot Fish
- and Windex the algae sucker.
- But, I adopted another parrot fish from my brother.
- His other fish were being mean to it .
- My brother named it Mocha, I have no idea why.
- I’m half Italian
- and half Maltese.
- No, not as in the dog. Or the Falcon.
- I love getting manicures and pedicures.
- I’m not much of a coffee drinker.
- I “purrfer” tea
- My favorite cocktail was a Long Island Ice Tea
- Until I met the Watermelon Martini
- Beer is good, too.
- As is wine.
- What is it about firefighters in uniforms?
- And cops in uniform? *sigh*
- Manny is my 1st pet (besides fish)
- My parents were “allergic” to cats.
- and “allergic” to the idea of a dog.
- I would like to own a beagle.
- The Husband wants a basset hound.
- Strawberries are my favorite fruit (that’s for you PMPM)
- M&M’s are my favorite candy, followed by jellybeans
- Ice cream is my favorite dessert.
- You’ve seen one desert, you’ve seen them all.
- I was ZwebbyVille’s 3000th visitor.
- BOG has been my friend since pre-school.
- I wish he would update his blog more often.
- Oh, I worked at Blockbuster to help pay for college.
- And now I have some sort of aversion to movies. And late fees.
- You want to see other cute kitties? Click here. (I heart Moses)
- I sat behind The Husband in my 10th grade English Class. We didn't date until college.
- I love when bloggers leave comments and/or emails.
The End! I hope you enjoyed your Introduction to Manny’s Mom. Sorry, no refunds.
