Dana @ My Little Celebration sweetly gave me the One Lovely Blog award last week (thanks so much, Dana!) – and because I’ve pretty much eaten the same thing for 4 days in a row, I thought this would be a nice little break in my daily eats routine.

Without further ado, 7 things you probably don’t know about me:
- I decided that I’m not going to run until after I’ve given birth. I ran about 3 miles this morning, and with each stride, I thought Baby Cakes was going to drop out onto the treadmill (if only childbirth was that easy, right?). And then my hips hurt all day long.
-
I check my email at least 20 times a day. I wish that I was kidding, but it’s sort of an obsession. I have to respond and delete an email immediately upon receiving it. If my inbox has more than 3 emails sitting in it, I start getting antsy.
- The week before I got married (at the ripe old age of 22), my (soon to be) sister-in-law and cousin-in-law convinced me to get a tattoo of Meeker’s initials on my butt. I put about five minutes of thought into it, and I don’t regret it in the slightest. I just think I’m hilarious. I also didn’t tell Meeker until he saw it on our wedding night. Again, I’m hilarious.
- I change into my pajamas the minute I get home from work. If I get home at 4:30, I’m in my pajamas at 4:31.
- The first race I ever ran was a marathon.
-
I’m not an animal lover. Yes, I gush about my pets – but that’s because they’re my pets. (And I can’t resist a puppy or kitten, but who can??)
-
I don’t like watching sports. I really wish I did, I try…but I just can’t get into it. (However, I really miss college football)



I love that you have Meeker’s name on your butt. That is awesome.
I am the same way about my email, I keep it open all day and look at it obsessively. Gmail rules my life.
Um I totally love that you have a tattoo on your butt. That seriously makes me love you so much. I bet Meeker loved it!!
Aww, you’re adorable! And rock out that tattoo!!!
I wish I had the same dedication with my email. The number of emails in my inbox is crazy….
i change into my pajamas the minute i get home too! and i also check my e-mail and phone compulsively.
Totally cracking up about the tattoo on your butt! And that you didn’t tell him until that night–I’ll bet he was surprised
Oh, my gosh. I think I just fell a little deeper in friendy blog love with you.
You seriously have a tattoo on your BUTT? WHATTT? That is awesome. I’m sort of jealous right now. OK really jealous. I’ve already suggested the act to my husband. I’ll let you know what he reports back.
I’m glad I’m not the only one like that about my email….I’m obsessed!! Love the story about the tattoo…was he completely shocked?!?!
That butt tattoo story is hillarious! How did he react?!?
I wish I could get into sports too, the idea of having colors and making dips is the only thing that appeals to me though!
Haha, I check my emails a lot too! My mom always keeps her inbox nice and clean. Hehe, but that is totally opposite from my dad–he has so many emails in his inbox, it’s not even funny.
Haha. The tattoo on your butt made me smile. That’s so…different!
Congrats on the award!
I burst out laughing about the tattoo fact; that is so sweet and hilarious! If you had posted this tomorrow, I’d have thought that fact was an April Fool’s joke. I hope you made him get a matching one!
These facts made me think you are even more awesome than I had already thought lol! A marathon for a first race is so cool!
Oh Katie head that bottom photo makes me miss you so so so!!
Haha you are so cool. I love that the first race you ever ran was a marathon… I guess diving right into things is the only way to get things done sometimes. I am the same way and I wouldn’t have it any other way. GO Buffs!! I have been meaning to email you lately, I will get on this after class tomorrow!
Hahah. You ARE hilarious. I just asked Ryan if I could tattoo is initials on my bum and he said sure—having RAM tattooed there would probably be a GREAT idea.
Ahahaha! That just made me laugh so hard.
HAHAHA the tattoo thing is awesome. That would actually be a really awesome April Fool’s joke for someone, actually…
Is the tatoo an April Fools joke?!?!
Nope, true story.
Loved this!! I loved that picture of you in at the end…sexy little thing!
I have a tat on my behind too of stars. I am obsessive about my email as well it goes straight to my phone so I am constantly stalking it, as far as my work email, i have to keep the inbox empty or close to it.
I’m still debating which is more shocking, the 3 mile run at eight months pregnant or the honeymoon butt tattoo.
So FUN!
I’m a jammy girl, too.
Butt tattoo – love it!! I am the same about my PJs….Chris always says he has to meet me at the front door when I get home to see me in something other than PJs and a pony tail!
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing these hilarious insights about you. I’m exactly the same about emails–they come in, I read them immediately, and then put them in their proper place. Gmail is like a dream come true: color coding, labels, folders…what more could a girl want?!
I am the SAME way about my email!! Shocking I know. Annnnyway, I thought I’d be the first to tell you – I’ve decided to revive Cait’s Plate!! Nothing full-blown right away, but definitely looking for a comeback.
Someone bought “caitsplate.com” so I had to change the address to “http://caitsplate.me.”
Excited to be real life AND blog best friends again!!
seriously that tattoo thing has to be fake. if not you area freakin hilarious.
Haha that picture of you is so funny. I am anal about my email too- I don’t know how people keep thousands of emails in their inbox!
I knew your tattoo secret! it was funny. Pillow for sure….works like a charm. Run/jog b/c nothing will ‘jar’ that baby out! I know…I was so careful and then it took 18 hrs to get big jug headed Ben to appear…Graci asked for directions b/c women do and hmm she came out wonderfully! ha We have a lil gift…need to drop it off soon. When is your last day at work?
omgosh, my friend is getting married and planning on doing the butt tat as well!
and I love your college pic. too cute!
So fun!! I wish I liked sports too, but I just can’t. I do like the superbowl, but that’s probably because it involves lots of food.
I am the same way with my email. It’s kind of borderline obsessive, made much worse by the fact that i have an iphone.
Haha! You’re so cute
I’m in love with my pajamas too…
I didn’t know you went to CU! I go there!! I love that you have a tattoo on your butt and a marathon for your first race? You’re badass!
Yay for CU!! How cool! Sometimes I miss Boulder!
Oh my goodness! I love how you have a tatoo on your bootayy! That is soo funny!
So just wondering…do you actually have to take off your pants to get it done??
I can totally relate to you on the PJ thing! Same same.
Haha, nope didn’t have to take my pants off…just pull them down a bit.
you are just gorgeous haha- love that face!!
btw, thats hardcore how your first race was a marathon- wow! when u tell people that, they must think “this chick is tough”
xoxo
