Betcha Didn't Know

***Before we get to my post today I just want to put out into the universe I am so thankful those I care and love are safe and sound. If you're in the NOVA area you'll have heard about the crazy inmate that escaped from a local hospital and wrecked havoc yesterday. The hospital is about ten minutes from where my parents live and wouldn't you know the suspect fled to their community. The second car that was stolen was off their street and the suspect fled through the woods three houses down from where I grew up. Talk about scary! Esepcially knowing Mama B was home alone. Thankfully the suspect fled to DC and was apprehended in the afternoon, due to the diligence of the police and someone paying attention to social media. No one was injured and I'm so thankful. So.incredibly.THANKFUL***

Inspiration found *here*.

Betcha didn't know... that I did sideline reporting for a public access channel righto out of college. I wanted to go in to sports broadcasting but didn't have enough experience in college to land an internship. However, a work college did public access and I worked with him for a year until my job said it was a conflict of interest. So, I quit.

Betcha didn't know... that decision still haunts me. #didntgiveitmyall

Betcha didn't know... I can be incredibly shy when I first meet people. I used to be incredibly outgoing all the time, but since college I've become much more of a shy personality at first meet. It now takes me a bit of time to warm up in a big group, but once I'm comfortable I won't stop talking ;)!

Betcha didn't know... we're moving to Alaska. #bringonthemountains #andtheviews

Betcha didn't know... that my left hip is more flexible than my right hip. Don't know why that is, but my pigeon pose is quite different on each side of my body. I need to work double time to stretch that right hip out with more yoga.

Betcha didn't know... I can follow a recipe to a T, but can't boil rice on the stove. I burn it every.single.time. Or don't cook it enough. Le Husband is so thankful for the rice cooker we were gifted for a wedding present. #hecksoamI

Betcha didn't know... I was better at the power apparatus events [vault, floor] than beam and bars. Poise and flexibility are not my strong points so quick and powerful vaults or energetic floor routines were where I excelled.

Betcha didn't know... my dad had twitter before I did. #truestory

Betcha didn't know... I played the Stringed Bass from middle school through high school. Yes, that is the standup up instrument in orchestras and yes lil five foot nothing Pinky carted it around for seven years. I started playing violin in six grade but didn't like the competition to be in the first section so I changed clefs from trebal to bass. #theremayhavebeenacuteboyinvolved #theyneededanotherbassists #madesymphonicorchestramyfreshmanyear

Betcha didn't know... I'm allergic cats and a malaria prevention medication. Kitty cats make my eyes water like no other so I'm a dog person. I had a pretty serious reaction to malarone back in 2008, right before I traveled to Brazil for a mission trip. It had me leaving in the middle of soccer game and heading to the ER. Luckily Benadryl in the ER fixed the problem but I had less than 24 hours to get a new prescription. #stressed

Betcha didn't know... at work I have one of my computers set to left-hand mode even though I'm right handed. I have two separate computers on two different networks and my right hand used to get so tired, so I switched one to left handed. Now I'm as proficient on my left hand as I am on my right, woohoo.
