10 Thingsand a sneak peek!

Everyone has been doing them lately… a “Ten things you don’t know about me post!” And I wasn’t going to do one just because it had already been done like a gillion times however, I had so much fun reading what others had written, that I decided to do one too!

Not that any of these random “facts” of information would be relevant in the world of photography but I would really love for my readers to know who this crazy girl is behind the camera! There is a lot to know about me other than my obsession with my cat, Theodore or my love for the color gold… really there is more to my life, I promise! So here goes nothing… a list of incredibly random facts about Laura Gordon…

  1.  I have never in my entire life had a Starbuck’s coffee!! *GASP* Nope, not once… And actually, I’ve never had any type of drink from Starbucks. I’m just not a coffee drinker but ironically my favorite flavor of ice-cream is coffee :) –Guess that was 2 facts in one!
  2. I hate to admit it, but I am an incredibly picky eater! I eat a lot of what I love but there isn’t much I love and I’m very particular about food touching. Oh, and I think Ketchup is the nastiest thing on the entire planet- I can’t even look at it… I know, I’m a weirdo.
  3. I don’t wear heels. I can’t! I’m 5’2″ so I really want to but they hurt my feet so badly… no matter how hard I try. I have a TON of cute pairs but I only wear them on special occasions and for a very short amount of time!
  4. I have a SERIOUS shopping addiction! And that wasn’t the “you didn’t know about me” part …the embarrassing thing is, I pretty much know everyone that works in all of my favorite stores by name. Annnnnnddd…. I’m FB friends with most of them! HA! Hey Tiffany!!!! :)
  5.  You may have noticed by my Christmas countdown every year that I’m OBSESSED with Christmas but what you may not know is that I REFUSE to listen to anything but Christmas music from Thanksgiving until New Year’s Day! And I really want to go to a Trans Siberian Orchestra concert one year!!
  6. Speaking of music, I LOVE to sing! I don’t like to sing in public (it makes me nervous) but I sing all the time. And you want to know something REALLY funny?! Theodore loves singing…. no, no… I’m not saying my cat sings, but he LOVES hearing singing and will run up to me, get right in my face, rub up against me and make all these cute noises when I sing!
  7. My Nannie was born in 1922, my Mama in 1955 and me in 1988. All in the same year, I turned 22, Mama turned 55 and Nannie turned 88 :)
  8.  I never leave the house without jewelry! Even if I’m going to the doctor or the grocery store. I just can’t- I don’t feel complete!! My jewelry collection is bad… like, my closet is overflowing! I’ll have to blog my jewelry area one day to show you the madness!
  9. I sit indian style about 90% of the time that I’m awake. It almost hurts to sit any other way. Even when I’m out to dinner, the movies, anywhere… I just have to! Oh and it makes a nice bed for one of my 8 animal children to sleep :)
  10. I have Special K Fruit & Yogurt cereal for breakfast every single morning… for as long as I can remember that it’s been out! I feel like it’s been at least 5 years! I LOVE that stuff!

 

Ha! Now that you all know how strange I am, I have to share a sneak peek from a maternity session coming to the blog tomorrow :)

OH !!! I had to comment back on this one !!! We are soooo opposite and alike at the same time its ridic !! The food touching thing is in our blood .. so is the picky eating thing ! I love coffee just not Starbucks ( unless its watered down ) ! I dont know how to walk in flats when I do I end up with a bruise or some other form of harm to my body . I cant sing …. but sure can rap LOL !!!! Christmas is our obsession ! ( Remember the Christmas rap we used to do in the living room ?!) Priceless !! Oh and I love Halloween next ( but scary movies terrify me the noises are terrifying enough I dont even have to watch them ) … I think thats enough about me on your blog ! Sorry ! LOVE YOU ! XOXO

We are so weird its cool ! :)

Hahahah, I love these posts, too. I used to drink coffee, until my dentist dared me to, -tried Starbucks and hated it-just overpriced! Sorry, you got the 5’2″ from me,- I wore heals until I had to have foot surgery & I NEVER want to go through that again. The things you inherited are the picky eater, shopping, shopping and more shopping, which kind of goes along with Christmas. Although, Christmas would be special, just because of our Christian beliefs,festivities, family, food and fun. We can blame Nannie for the shopping. I love music, too, got that from Papa, I can’t sing, but I love to listen and dance.By the way you sing BEAUTIFUL, I hear you! I love your jewelry collection and it looks awesome on you! I love all 10 things about you, especially 22/55/88! Thanks Laura, for just being you (Special).

HAHA, Abby Grace’s comment made me laugh. Also, I sit indian style quite often, and because of that, I hate it when chairs have arm rails.

Fran Satterwhite - September 20, 2012 - 3:22 pm

HAHAHA…I had to laugh too…the madness must run in the family, because I have never had starbucks coffee, I don’t like my food to touch, If I don’t have on my BIG hoop earrings I feel naked….And LOVE to shop wayyyyyy to much!!!! Love the blog, keep em coming!!!!

Loved reading these. Cracked me up, haha. We need to hang out soon girl! Shopping? ;) haha!

I’ve never had Starbucks coffee either b/c I just don’t like coffee. And I work night shift! I also don’t wear heels b/c like you I think they’re really too uncomfortable to be worth it. And you absolutely MUST go to a TSO concert his Christmas. One of my friends took me to one of their Christmas concerts when we were in college & it was AMAZING.
