How well do they know me?

First off, checking in with Kels and her summer reading challenge - I said I would read 30 books in June, July & August. In June I read 13 books, and in July I read 12... So I only have 5 books to read in August then I shall be a winner winner chicken dinner. I've only read 2 books since the last Show Us Your Books Link up, for some reason I have just not been in a reading mood.
The Blonder Side of Life

I love these posts that I have been seeing around bloglandia, but I didn't think I had enough people to ask. Then I said who curr, no-one curr so I did it anyway... and I asked a couple of blogging friends to help a sister out.

I asked them all to name 5 things I loved or was obsessed with.. here's what they said:

KC (husband just in case you don't know..)

- Jane Austen
- Subtitles
- Apple Juice
- Me (as in him, not myself).
- Our cats


^ how many times did you watch that gif? watch it again.

 Mummy (the person who birthed me)

- Pride & Prejudice
- Running / Exercise
- Beauty & the Beast
- Cats
- Food


 Megan (bestie)

- Books
- Cats
- Planning stuff
- Traveling
- Exercise


 Jenni (bestie)

- Books
- Pride & Prejudice
- Cats
- Stripes
- Milkshakes

She also said candy (or lollies) and I mean, does she know me or what?


Alyssa 

- Pride & Prejudice
- Cats (yours, specifically, but all in general)
- Traveling / Vacations
- Planning
- Books in general


She also said: I should probably say KC too but I think you love him a healthy, normal, respectable, adult way. Being obsessed with a guy feels so 13-year-old ya know? All that just to say I know you love him but that goes without saying and doesn't belong on this list (other runners up: Australia, running, yoga).

Nadine

- Cats
- Books
- Traveling
- Yoga
- Jane Austen


She also said: If Jane Austen & books are the same, then shopping (which made me laugh)

Tracy

- Cats
- Reading
- Pride & Prejudice
- Australia
- Traveling


Tracy also said the same thing about KC, which makes me laugh because KC clearly thinks I am obsessed with him (just kidding!).

So basically you guys, my friends think I am a crazy cat lady with a weird Jane Austen obsession who loves to exercise, eat, travel and read. And you know what? That's flipping awesome and 100% true. Perhaps I should find something new to talk about?


Happy Wednesday! Do you love any of the things I love?

  10. Gretchen BraunJuly 29, 2015 at 8:44 AM

    This was a fun post :) I think I could name all those things about you as well just from reading your blog the past few weeks! I'm also big into travelling, eating and exercising. Those are three good things to be obsessed with!

  11. Paige @ An Uncomplicated Life BlogJuly 29, 2015 at 9:15 AM

    Haha! Your lists were all pretty much the same and accurate. It's a real bonus when food and exercise BOTH make the list, right? Both of those would be on mine, too :)

  12. Kelli @KellibeansJuly 29, 2015 at 9:15 AM

    You should open a book store with it's own cat, maybe you could even hire KC. You know so all your obsessions are in the same place. :)

  15. Frikken DuckieJuly 29, 2015 at 9:47 AM

    I would have said:

    - Pride & Prejudice
    - Cats
    - Traveling
    - Yoga/Running
    - Books

    KC is a given, which is why he wasn't included in the list. Hahaha.

  16. SMD @ lifeaccordingtostephJuly 29, 2015 at 9:53 AM

    I would have said P&P, travel, books, cats, Derby. LOL

  17. Food, Booze, & BaggageJuly 29, 2015 at 10:25 AM

    This is so fun! It seems so accurate :) I would have said either P&P or books...it would have been a toss up on going specific or general.

  21. NadineJuly 29, 2015 at 11:36 AM

    Hahahaha it looks like you are pretty predictable when it comes to likes :) But that is what we love about you! We know what we are going to get. All great obsessions, obviously! Though...dogs are way better than cats. You would know that if you met Gracie and Mac :D

  22. Caitlin @ Candyfloss & PersieJuly 29, 2015 at 11:45 AM

  29. aeJuly 29, 2015 at 2:40 PM

    Books and travel would probably be on my lists too.

    This is such a fun post! I may have to do it myself. :)

    My secret to blowing through books recently ? Amazon Kindle Unlimited - with audio ! My drive to and from work is infinitely better now that I've listened to The Paper Magician series (in case you need any ideas for books to read in August !)

    Also, I love the Homer Simpson gif...can that type of exercise get us in half marathon shape ?!

    I love books, cats, traveling, and gifs! (no one said gifs...but let's admit it...we love our gifs) I'm glad you did this, and I love the consistancy (did I spell that correctly?) of the answers.

    I think it's okay to be a little obsessed with one's husband...it's quite special if you can get that giddy "crush" feeling all over again! :)

    I've considered doing this, but I've been too lazy to ask anyone. I think it would be interesting to see how well other people know me, though.

    I'm not surprised by any of the answers given here. It's awesome that everyone knows you so well (and that their responses were so consistent)!

  48. BrookeJuly 31, 2015 at 9:35 AM

    Haha I love these posts. From reading your blog, my list for you would have looked very similar! I love how KC is the only one who put himself haha Now I'm curious what people would say about me. Probably, KODA, KODA, KODA, wine!

  49. AnonymousAugust 2, 2015 at 4:12 PM

    Oh yes! I love this little game! I have one planned coming up soon. I totally would have said cats and Jane Austin/books for you as well.
