my years in the doop boys' chorus will not have been in vain!

The lovely Christabel has linked to me in her lovely A Few Honest Scraps list. The idea is:

1. Thank the person who nominated you and link back to that blog post.
2. Tell ten honest things about yourself and make them interesting, even if you have to dig deep!
3. Pass the award on to ten bloggers you feel embody the spirit of Honest Scrap, and whose blog you find brilliant in design and/or concept.

Now I'm not very interesting, but I can probably cook up 10 stupid things about myself.

1. I am known around the music department as the resident knitter.
2. I am also known around the music department as the resident super-nerd.
3. I have the sweetest brother ever.

4. I have worked at Hill Country Weavers for six months now. I almost know where everything is now, and how QuickBooks 2009 works. This may not seem like a big deal, but if you've ever been to HCW you'd understand what an undertaking it is to know where everything is in that place. Biggest. Yarn shop. Ever.
5. I'm secretly a very vain person. I obsess over having shiny, straight hair, smelling nice, and looking somewhat put-together. Granted my version of put-together is very different from other people, but I do spend a embarrassingly large amount of time putting myself together in the morning.
6. I'm pretty much Liz Lemon, but 10 or so years younger. I'm even starting to dress like her (I realized this today). I'm totally okay with that because I finally, after 25 years, really like myself. *pats self on back*
7. I hate money but I love spending it. I live with two girls that are very simple and easy going, which makes me self-conscious of my love of tech stuff, gadgets, DVDs, and nerdy toys. But hey. I'm me. I work hard to get the stuff I want. "Maybe you can't understand this, but I've finally found what I need to be happy and it's not friends, it's things."
8. Speaking of which, I make it a personal goal to slip in a Futurama quotation into a normal conversation once every day.
9. I have two tattoos with two on the way. One is Chicago related, one is just pretty.
10. As of January 18th, I've been vegan for 8 years. I've loved every day of it and never regretted it for a second. It's made me see the world in a new way and I think it's been a positive thing for myself and the people around me.

So like I said. 10 stupid things about me. May or may not be interesting, though.

Now let's see if I can think of ten lovely bloggers out there ...
