ABC's of Andrea

Congrats to Abby from The Makings of a Mess for winning my first ever giveaway! Yay!

It was really fun to meet so many of you who participated via your comments and twitter.  I thought this would be a perfect time to give you a few more details about me! I recently saw that Ricci at A Beautiful Mess was using this ABC method of introducing herself to new readers...and I just had to snag it!  It is the perfect way to learn a little more about me without seeming too overwhelming!  Hope you enjoy!  And check out the rafflecopter at the end for the giveaway I am participating in with Ricci and all her other lovely sponsors!  We are giving away $75 cash...totally worth it!

A-Age: 29 and a half...almost exactly!  Starting to get a tad leary of turning the big 3-0!  And realizing I still have quite a few things left to check off my 30 before 30 list.

B-Bed Size: Full - if you saw my midtown Manhattan shoebox apartment, you would understand why.  Enough said.

C-Chore You Hate: Cleaning.  Especially the bathroom.  Ugh!

D-Dogs: I'm not really a dog or cat person.  I grew up with goldfish.

E-Essential Start to Your Day: Checking my phone, but I don't really wake up until I wash my face.

F-Favorite Color: Black.  I know that is kind of weird, but it is true.  Close second is red.

G-Gold or Silver: Silver. No question.

H-Height: 5'4" - I'm short...it's sad.

I-Instruments You Play: I took piano lessons for a few years when I was younger.  I didn't like practicing.  Makes it tough to learn that way.  Wish I would have stuck with it now though!

J-Job Title: Manager, NFL Football Operations.  So happy about the title change that came with my promotion :)

K-Kids: None for me...yet!  Looking forward to having a couple someday though.  Enjoying my niece for now though :)

L-Live: New York City - sometimes even I can't believe it.

M-Married: Hopefully sooner than later!  Chris and I are headed that direction...eventually!

N-Nicknames: Dre, Drea (work peeps); Anda Panda, Vashti, Sharona (Mom/Dad); Andi (a couple of people used this one, but I don't like it)

O-Overnight Hospital Stays: I suppose I stayed overnight when I was born, but otherwise I've been pretty fortunate in regard to health.

P-Pet Peeves: Rude people - you know, the ones that exclude others or think they are better than or above others.  Also, people who think their plan or way is perfect and can't adjust or see why you don't agree.

Q-Quote: It's really more of a prayer.  "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."

R-Righty or Lefty:  Righty.  But I have tried to become ambidextrious a few different times.  Didn't work.

S-Siblings: two of the absolute best brothers ever - Jordan and McKinley (Bubsa); we are TTBSTACH (the three best siblings that anyone could have) - ever seen The Hangover?

T-Time You Wake Up: If I had a choice, it would be around 11am....but during the weekdays, I usually wake up somewhere between 8:00-9:00 depending on the day.

U-University You Attended: Georgetown College.  I bleed orange and black.  Go Tigers!!

V-Vegetables You Dislike:  Lettuce.  Is that a vegetable?

W-What Makes You Run Late? Sleeping in.  Almost every single day.  I just can't get up in the mornings.

X-X-rays You Have Had:  About a million on my teeth.  I think I've had them on my foot/ankle as well.

Y-Yummy Food: CUPCAKES!!!

Z-Zoo Animal Favorite? I absolutely LOVE penguins. 

Now that you know me from A-Z, take advantage of the chance to win some free money!! 


Andrea :)
