So, there’s this silly tag-blog-game-chain-letter thing going around with photographers. Basically, you have to blog about 8 things that people may or may not know about you and then name 8 other people who have to do the same on their blog. Silly, I know, but I don’t want 8 years bad luck, so here it goes -
1. I have over 25 pairs of Converse All-Star High Tops. I store them in clear plastic boxes, labeled and everything. I even got married in a pair of white leather All-Stars.
2. I once sat through a 14 inning Cubs game.
3. One time, I brought a Ziploc bag full of puppy tails to school. My parents bred Australian Shepherds, which have to have their tails docked (so cattle doesn’t step on them when they herd.) My mom was a vet technician so she would do it at home. As you can imagine, I was pretty torn up about it as a kid. I stole them from my mom and kept them in my drawer, so I could “give the tails back to the puppies” when she wasn’t looking. Once day, I brought the whole bag to school for show and tell. That was the first of many times that my parents had to have a talk with my principal.
4. I can say all 50 states in alphabetical order in less than 60 seconds. I am especially good at it after two martinis.
5. I don’t know my multiplication tables. (Don’t judge.)
6. My two favorite movies are “Magnolia” and “Pretty in Pink” – they are tied for first place.
7. I spent a good part of my childhood in the hospital with a serious heart condition. At 13, I had experimental heart surgery and, ever since, I’ve been healthy.
8. I have a lot of very strange eating habits. Such as, I love cheese, but not “end cheese,” or any part of the cheese that’s been exposed to air for more than about 15 seconds. Also, I refuse to eat waffles or pancakes with a fork. In my mind, they are a breakfast pastry and are meant to be eaten with your fingers. In addition, I have never met anything in a tortilla that I don’t like (even end cheese). And, I love beans, but I gag if I wash a pan that beans have been cooked in.
That’s it! 8 completely mundane facts about Chenin Boutwell! Now, 8 people we should all know more about -

2. My Hubby
3. Jeff Lawler
4. Alex and Julie Hill
5. Victor Sizemore
6. Erin Vey
7. John Michael Cooper
8. The Image is FoundÂ

I’m totally with you on the pancakes!
Ha, Ha , Ha. Ok so you are for real, now I know that you are a woman of your word. This sounds like a lot of fun though. By the way, last night was a blast, and I can say that winning made it a little sweeter. Magnoila rocks. So now I am off to make sure that I do not upset the blog god. See ya!
that was the most interesting 8 things i’ve seen so far. i’ll admit it was the puppy dog tails that did it.
Now, I know the real you! hahaha! The puppy tails got me too, especially since I have an Aussie
Can you sing the Fifty Nifty United States song too? We all had to learn it in third grade. When I’m not singing, I can also say the states in order in under 60 seconds. My friends and I (who have also obviously never grown up) still enjoy having contests to see who can do it the fastest.
ahhh! that bag of puppy tails is now forever emblazoned in my mind.
I love Magnolia, live in Converse (chucks and Purcells), and join you in a hatred of end cheese!! haha Hope you are having a rad week…
Those were the most interesting and funny 8 fun facts!!
Now I will have to see Magnolia if it is really up there with Pretty in Pink. We missed you at lunch on Wednesday. Maybe next time.
dude. bean pans soooo suck.
