Random insight into the the mind of...

Susie:

Favorite drink: Caffeine-Free Diet Coke and Boba Bubble Tea
Favorite sport to watch: FOOTBALL!!!!! (Hail to the Redskins!)
Guilty pleasures: tiaras, frozen mochas, and mani/pedis with the latest OPI nail colors
Secret fascination with: Beauty pageants! I love them! I already look for any excuse possible to wear crowns. I was never in an official pageant, but I won the only little one I was ever in: Queen of my cheerleading squad in 2nd grade – my mom thought it was just a pep rally, dropped me off at the Boys Club, and saw all these made-up little girls running around. She came back to pick me up, all those little girls were wailing and crying, their moms were holding them, and my coach said, “Congratulations!!!” Haha! She wouldn’t let me do real ones, though, which –looking back– was certainly no loss, (esp. when I was chunky in high school,) but I am still fascinated.
What are the 3 most ridiculous, unique, and irrational things that totally freak you out?  1) Cold, dead fish   2) Skin problems (rashes, bumps everywhere, etc. – maybe it reminds me of fish scales!)   3) Monkeys dressed up like people (no, it is NOT cute; it’s creepy!)
What do you do most often when you are bored? Eat. Eat. Eat...
Been to Europe? Lived there for a year August 1998-July 1999 - FANTASTIC! Back to Italy July 2003!
Been to Africa? I went on safari for two weeks in Kenya in July 1992 - incredibly eye-opening.
Most annoying thing people ask me: "What do you do all day?” ARRGGHHH! Try wrangling a baby or two all day and THEN ask me that, again.

Where did you go on your honeymoon? We went to Pink Sands on Harbour Island in the Bahamas - super ritzy and BEAUTIFUL! (Thanks to JB’s parents - it was our wedding gift from them.) We hobnobbed with Fergie - Duchess of York, Elle McPherson, etc., rode horses on the beach, and otherwise ate and slept it away!
