Interesting Very Interesting...

OK maybe not, but I thought I would treat all of you with some interesting Nersey facts in honor of my 26th birthday on April 5th. These are in no particular order of importance. I am only doing this because I am having a hard time down loading ALL of our fun pictures going back to January.

1. I have a twin brother who told EVERYONE we grew up with that I got held back and the twin thing was a cover. I would be mad about it but I was angrier that I didn't think of it first.

2. I am obsessed with David Bowie in Labyrinth. You might say that his rock mullet, open chest shirts and Lycra pants changed my life. I almost named K-Man Jereth, fortunately Cookie has our babies best interest at heart.

3. When I was 10 we moved to the East Side and I had a hard time making friends so my Mom had the school counselor form something called the "friendship group" where little girls were bribed with candy to play with me at recess. Surprisingly the friendships have not lasted.

4. I was the only girl in the history of Girl 's State(political nerd camp for teenage girls) to be impeached. Haters!

5. I wish Dragons were real.

6. My nick name nersey evolved like this.. Jennifanerz, Nerseyfers, then finally to Nersey.

7. I still have entire conversations with myself

8. I can quote 30 Rock like its my Job.

9. I once gave a boy ulcers after I after I informed him that WE were Not dating, WE NEVER were dating and WE NEVER will date. To be fair we did go hiking together but never hugged, touched or held hands and I only found out his intentions after he tricked me into a family BBQ and his Grand Mother was sooo happy that he had found a nice girl to date. That why that douche got ulcers.

10. I was once a vegatarian for a total of 6 months... then my Mom made pot roast. Sorry animals it would be easier not to eat you if you were not so tasty!

11. I eat vegetables for breakfast.

12. I am convinced that I was a mermaid in a past life, or maybe a beached mermaid in my present life. Ether way my soul belongs to the ocean!

13. My 3 favorite books are 1. Rebbecca 2. Refuge by Terry Tempest Williams 3.East of Edan by John Steinbeck

14. I would say that my role models would by 1. My Mom and 2. Miss Piggy both incredibly strong women who have their men in CHECK!

15. When I was 15 I joined my high school swim team THEN learned how to swim.

16. I was captain of my high school swim team and then had a very illustrious career as a swim coach.

17. I have the cutest little boy in the world and love him to pieces!!!

18. I broke up with Cookie every month for the first 6 months we dated.

19. I am OBSESSED with Americas Next Top Model, any season.

20. When my father was running for Lt. Governor of UT. we were cruising around SLC in our family van that was covered in campaign signs I was in the back and decided to moon the car behind us. I was 4 but I still get blamed for throwing my dads election.

21. When I was in the 7th grade I started a rumor that a girl had hairy boobs and I know for a fact that it followed her through college. I am still waiting for Karma to kick me in the bum for that!

22. The main reason why I went to Russia was not because I wanted to teach children English but that I wanted to see Lennon embalmed....totally worth it!

23. I LOVE ZIONS!!! that being said I once took a nap on the Subway trail.

24. I am a creature of the Sun but unfortunately have only been tan once in my life and that only happened when my freckles connected. I have had at least one really serious sun burn every Summer.

25. I want to run a marathon BEFORE I am 30 yrs old. Which means I will need to start running like last week.

26. I have the absolute best family ever!

I think that I already knew most of these, but I laughed as I read the whole thing. Why, oh, why do you not live somewhere closer!?! Are you doing anything fun for your b-day?

p.s. two things 1. i want more pictures of your cute baby. 2. I am afraid to let James read this for fear that he will get ideas from your comments regarding Labyrinth and naming children.

p.p.s. sorry for the long comment--sometimes nerdiness can't be helped

You have always made life so much fun. I love your quick wit. Happy Birthday and I will testify in any court, you really are a twin....and more importantly, you are the older twin! Love you lots!

Mindurs said...

Didn't anyone question how you knew that the poor girls boobs were hairy? Just a thought.

I feel that I must confirm the hairy boobs thing... I remember in High School someone was talking about it and I told Nersey about it. She looked like she was Mahamad Ali after defeating Joe Frasier.
