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.
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?
Haha love this! I definitely would have had P&P, reading and cats on there as well! :)

Haha looks like they all nailed this!! I would have said all 5 of the same things...maybe not the juice thing since I didn't know that! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeletethis is so cute. i def love exercise (duh) and reading!
ReplyDeleteLove this! And that cat gif and the Despicable Me one!!!
ReplyDeleteLoved this! And I'm soooo glad I'm not the only one who loves to use subtitles! And count it up top for traveling - my absolute fav <3
ReplyDeletecats and PAP--I definitely would say that about you too!! such a fun exercise to do with loved ones.
ReplyDeleteI love this and I watched the cat gif plenty of times because like you I am obsessed with kitties!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I love this idea and may have to do it myself!
I love love love books!I, also, have started Pride and Prejudice which I really enjoy so far :)
ReplyDeleteAll things I would have guessed too and they are awesome things to be obsessed with! You know I love me some reading!!
ReplyDeleteThis 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!
ReplyDeleteHaha! 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 :)
ReplyDeleteYou 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. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha! I love that you have your things and everyone knows it! :) Pride and Prejudice is the bomb dot com! :)
ReplyDeleteLol..I love that you are crazy cat Jane Austen loving lady. I have read pride and prejudice a few times and love it.
ReplyDeleteI would have said:
ReplyDelete- Pride & Prejudice
- Cats
- Traveling
- Yoga/Running
- Books
KC is a given, which is why he wasn't included in the list. Hahaha.
I would have said P&P, travel, books, cats, Derby. LOL
ReplyDeleteThis 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.
ReplyDeleteHaha, so funny! they know you well :)
ReplyDeleteI loved doing this it was so fun to see how well people knew me. I totally would have guessed P&P and Travel.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a cute post - your friends clearly know you very well!
ReplyDeleteHahahaha 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
ReplyDeleteha, this is a cute idea! I like it. And look at you, little Jane Austen lover! That cat gif is darling, I really want a cat!
ReplyDeleteI would have said P&P, travel, and Disney. I had so much fun with this when I did it!
ReplyDeleteBahaha every single dang person said cats and books. YES they know you! I would say the same, plus traveling, experimenting with makeup/clothes and Aussie :)
ReplyDeleteI so need to do this.
ReplyDeleteYipee for mom giving Beauty & the Beast a shout out. I know that will be the first thing out of everyone's mouth for me :)
Such a fun post and great job on your reading goal!
ReplyDeleteHaha! So spot on with their picks. I have the same obsession with books.
ReplyDeleteLOL! So funny to see what your friends say about you, but I do think they pretty much nailed it from what we know of you here!
ReplyDeleteBooks and travel would probably be on my lists too.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun post! I may have to do it myself. :)
I love this idea! I feel like I know you pretty well also and we are only blog/instagram friends! I love your blog, especially the pride and prejudice posts!
ReplyDeleteMy 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 !)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I love the Homer Simpson gif...can that type of exercise get us in half marathon shape ?!
Haha love this post! Sounds like they know you pretty well! :)
ReplyDeleteHaha, I love this! So funny they all said similar things. I think I would have said about the same things about you too!
ReplyDeleteHahaha I love how everyone's answers were the same. That's awesome. I'm curious what people would say about me.
ReplyDeleteHahaha I love that you included my KC commentary and that you totally know what I meant by it too :)
ReplyDeletehaha sounds like a fun little game to play. and I really like bloglandia waaaay better than blogosphere! I'm gonna use that one ;)
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteStripes! Good one, Jenni. I think we all summed you up pretty well :)
ReplyDeletehaha love that they are all so consistent - and pretty on point!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you did this! I love how they all basically said the exact same 5 things. Your friends clearly know you well.
ReplyDeleteI 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! :)
ReplyDeleteLol, I love this idea!! I'm a total Beauty & the Beast fangirl & books, yes to all the books!
ReplyDeletehmmm.. seems you need to get signed up for #AusteninAugust ! only 2 days left ;)

Looks like they all said pretty similar things. That kitty gif is adorable!
ReplyDeleteThis is so fun! Made me laugh!!
ReplyDeleteOmg I love this and love the fact that everyone knows your cats and reading/P&P come before anything! ;)

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.
ReplyDeleteI'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)!
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!
ReplyDeleteOh 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.
ReplyDeleteHehe that LBD gif. :) I have read SO much! I think a lot of it is the book club! Hooray. Also, the planes. Lots and lots of planes. :) XO -Alexandra
ReplyDeleteSimply Alexandra: My Favorite Things
I love reading these and keep meaning to ask people what they'd say about me. I would have definitely sad Jane Austen or Pride & Prejudice first too!
