Four things about me :)
Rhonda Hinrichsen has tagged me. I figured since we’re doing a whole blog on me and I love the Simpson’s, I’d put my picture of what I’d look like if I was a Simpson’s character:![]()
Four things about me
4 Jobs I have had
1. Author (by and large my coolest career move.)
2. eBay Investigator (one that sounds cool, but sucks rocks)
3. optician (Think greasy people . . . enough said)
4. waitress (think greasy food, and me dropping an entire tray of greasy food on a customer . . . enough said)
4 Movies I would watch over and over (I can’t believe we’re limited to only four!)
1. Pride and Prejudice A&E version (dang that Colin Firth is adorable)
2. Emma
3. The Tenth Kingdom
4. The Mummy Returns
4 Places I have lived
1.California: I still remember the sound of the guns cocking when the police surrounded the bank that seemed to get robbed a few times a month.
2. Salt lake
3.Boston
4.Oak
4 TV shows I love to watch (I don’t watch TV anymore with everything going on in life. So sad, since I loved TV. All these shows are ones I used to love watching and would watch all day if I could)
1. Seinfeld
2. The Simpsons
3. Moonlighting
4. Night Court
4 Places I have been on vacation
1.Hawaii which is my absolute number one best vacation ever
2.Bahamas
3.Writer’s cruise to Mexico
4.Disneyland (which I swear gets better every time I go!)
4 of my favorite foods
1. Chicken Makhani
2. Butternut squash soup with pinenuts
3. Mud Pie
4. Anything Scott makes, so I don’t have to cook dinner!
4 Places I would rather be right now
1. Hawaii–I’ll take the Hilton Waikaloa village any day over a crummy day of dealing with ticked off intellectual property owners at eBay.
2.Disneyland
3.Disneyland
4. Anywhere. My goal is to go everywhere and see everything. I’d really love to go to southern
4 Mistakes I have made
1. When I lied to Grandma when she asked me if I’d read the book of Mormon (this is especially bad since I had *just* been baptized) Dang I still feel guilty since I never fessed up the truth. (I’ve since read the book more times than I can even count anymore so I’m hoping that makes up for the lie in some small way)
2. Yeah right . . . like I’m going to post THAT on my blog!!
3. Taking math in any form in college since I failed it every time, and lowered an otherwise fabulous GPA
4. I think that’s enough confession for one go round, don’t you? I mean, after all . . . I’m an LDS author, and can’t afford the bribes I’d have to pay if any further secrets got out. Use your imagination . . . if it was a stupid thing to do, chances are—I did.
I’m adding a category dedicated to my family of bookworms (sorry, the rule of four must come to an end here! What am I, if not a rulebreaker anyway??)

Love The Mummy and The Mummy Returns. Not sure I’ve heard of some of the food you mentioned. Love the books category. Thanks for adding that.
Your Simpson character is great! I did that myself today.

You’re very brave to admit the mistakes you’ve made. Man, I’m not sure I’d be willing to do that. Glad that wasn’t on the list when I did this.
Oops, did that twice. Sorry about that.
We have a frightening amount in common. Thank heaven I’m one of the pickiest eaters on the face of the planet, or I’d probably be weirded out and never come back. I’ll have to tackle some of the books on your favourites list, since I’ve read and loved 3/4 of them.
Wahoo! I made your list! Did I ever tell you I finished fairy tale life? Nice ending, although I sort of wanted the mother to get hit by a truck and was disappointed you overlooked that small plot point.
When did you live in California? And Why didn’t I know that? What kind of freind am I?
Ha Janette! I should have had her get run over by a truck! Why didn’t you edit my book before it went to print?? And Josi, I lived in Orange County Placentia (what I refer to affectionately as the heroin district) It was while my dad went to optical school because he wasn’t satisfied with the ten degrees he already had. I was really young, but not so young I don’t remember almost getting kidnapped by the guy in the car (my brother walt saved me) o or tattling on Walt when he took candy from a stranger only because I didn’t get any, or eating dirt with gina next door, or tying my shoes for the first time and feeling so proud that I made my dad happy. good times!
