Random sevens…
Posted by Gypsy on Jan 18, 2010
Lately I find myself following a lot of different bloggers that I wouldn’t have followed a few years ago. One of my favorites that I’ve found in the last year is “This Is Reverb”, written by Ryan; father, husband, pastor, photographer and generally all around interesting dude. Recently he wrote a post about seven random things then went on to challenge his readers to post their own random sevens. He went with seven random (and adorable) photos. I’m just going with seven random whatevers.
1. I hate the hassle that comes with moving, but I love living in different places. I’ve lived in seven different places on two continents. I’m about to move again to somewhere new and while I’m stressed at the process I can’t wait to explore my new home.
2. I miss being in the Army. A lot. However, being in the Army would’ve meant not being married to Andy and I wouldn’t trade that for anything. Except maybe Nathan Fillion. It’s ok, though, because I know Andy would trade me for Zooey Deschanel.
3. To avoid having serious discussions about the risks Andy faces on deployments I tell Andy if he dies I’m taking the life insurance money and using it on drugs and buying things for whatever hottie I use for solace. I explain to him that I don’t want to do this but I will be left with no other option if he has the audacity to go and die on me.
4. He responds by telling me he’s going to haunt me. This might seem small but as I’m completely terrified of ghosts (something he’s fully aware of) this would likely leave me committing myself to an asylum for the rest of my life.
5. We love each other, I swear. I just don’t do mushy romantic stuff or getting all weepy. Not my thing and I prefer to avoid it at all costs.
6. Andy bought me a PPK because I wanted something smaller and easier for me to shoot. Yet when he’s gone for more than a few days it’s his XD 40 that is loaded and by the bed.
7. I hate that a third of my life is wasted on sleep. It’s so frustrating that there are all these things I want to do that I don’t have time for. Total design flaw.
So those are my seven randoms. If you want, add your own in the comments or on your own blog and link them back.
