Quite the combo, no? I ripped this off of Leah Braemel’s blog, who got it from The Goddess Blogs, a spot where one of my fellow Utah chapter-mates, Nicole Jordan, does her bloggy thang. (Julia London, who originated the post, defines the ‘flying monkey category’ as being: It wasn’t good, it wasn’t bad, it was somewhere in the middle, sort of grotesquely fun.)
Three things I like about me:
1. I have awesome hair. Everyone deserves a vanity, baby, and that’s mine. I slap a lil mousse in it and have the kind of curls my friends pay a bazillion bucks to get. Woot.
2. I’m not afraid to voice an opinion (loudly). Trust me, where I come from, women who speak their minds are not appreciated–especially if they’re arguing with a man. You know I like arguing with men, right? ;)
3. I’m usually a pretty good friend. Not totally made of awesome, but not craptastic either.
Three things that could stand improvement:
1. I’m fat. Yeah, I know. Shocking, right? I should probably do something about it. Maybe. Ugh.
2. A social life that doesn’t include friends/other writers on the phone would be good.
3. I should do laundry more often. And the dishes. And vacuuming. Maybe mopping. Definitely cleaning the bathtub. Okay, that’s more than three. I’m done now.
Three flying monkey things about me:
1. I just did my taxes yesterday. I usually do them like February 1, but writing like mad to meet my first Kensington deadline–well, housework wasn’t the only thing that went by the wayside.
2. I failed grammar and passed calculus (barely). It’s weird that I write now–but, ya know, still suck at grammar.
3. I’ve lived in every time zone in the U.S. and still like the one I was born in best.
So that’s a very…er…um…interesting list! It appears we have a lot in common. Expecially the number three on your needs improvement list. Eek!

by Crystal Jordan April 10th, 2008 at 5:15 pm ♦I love that-very interesting.

Awwww. Thank you
by Crystal Jordan April 10th, 2008 at 5:16 pm ♦This is fun, but I really want to know more about Dr. Cuthbert from your novel Treasured. He seems so familiar – it’s as if I almost knew him! ;)
Hope you’re well, Crystal!

by Crystal Jordan April 11th, 2008 at 3:51 pm ♦It’s ok. You don’t have to pay me royalties. :P
by william c. April 11th, 2008 at 3:52 pm ♦Then I guess it’s okay to mention that Dr. C. does NOT get laid in this book. Better luck next time! ;)
