thirty



Thirty thoughts/facts/whatever about Jessica 

1. I was born on May 17, 1982. My due date was April 28. I was 20 days late.
2. I have a .500 average of being on time. See above.
3. Favorite ice cream- mint chocolate chip.
4. I love the color red. My favorite shade of red is one that has slight ultramarine blue undertones.
5. I only buy neutral color vehicles. Silver, Silver, Taupe.
6. I love vintage. Mid Century is the best for furniture and house wares. The 20’s are the best for jewelry.
7. My favorite number is 16, has been since I was six.
8. I have a serious fear of odd numbers.
9. I could never go on a silent meditation retreat.
10. I have read six biographies on Queen Elizabeth II.
11. Reading Jane Austen makes me so happy. Watching that horrible Kiera Knightley movie makes me sad.
12. Nicknames my family calls me are J-cat and Jetski. (I cannot make them stop)
13. When I was in high school, I never broke curfew. Looking back I wish I would have been a little more rebellious.
14. My dream job would be the curator of the Kimbell Museum, if it were located in France, not Texas.
15. My dream retirement would be to grow lavender in the south of France.
16. Favorite snowball flavor- wedding cake
17. If I can make Chris laugh, I think I am awesome.
18. I love all forms of coffee- drip, espresso,lattes, iced, hot, whatever.
19. My first car was a Buick LaSabre. I looked very cool in it.
20. I love handwriting and lettering.
21. My favorite Crayola color as a child was Cerulean.
22. I have never seen an episode of the Simpsons.
23. My first concert was New Kids on the Block.
24. Softshell crab is the best food in the entire world.
25. I love to play basketball; I love it even better when I show up Chris.
26. I am very competitive, so is Chris, there is hardly an activity that is just enjoyed, there usually has to be a winner.
27. I love my siblings. They are the best friends anyone could have.
28. My family is very loud, it can be overwhelming, you just have to jump in and talk loudly.
29. The I-55 bridge and the Causeway give me anxiety. You are just a tiny metal guardrail away from Lake Ponchatrain.
30. Favorite birthday cake- ice cream or vanilla salted caramel with buttercream icing.
