In Case You Want to Know

So I was thinking that I wouldn't have a post today because I just didn't feel like it. At first I had a topic all picked out. I knew what I was going to say and my punchlines were all set. Unfortunately, I received a call with some bad news that just kind of threw everything off. But, because this blog is new and I want to stay consistent with my Monday and Friday posts, here I am. I decided against the original topic, it wouldn't be appropriate right now. But I thought it would be fun to give you a few random facts about me because you care. LOL

1. People say I look like Alfre Woodard. I can't believe that I'm even typing this. But yeah, believe it or not, I get that ALL the time. As a matter of fact, since I get this so often, you probably do believe it. Ms. Woodard is beautiful in her own right, but my doppelganger she is not! #LetsArgue​ (Scroll down for a side by side comparison)
2. I HATE talking on the phone. I've worked in a call center environment for about 16 years. I'm even on the phone at times when doing freelance admin work. After hours upon hours of being on the phone for my 9 to 5 and beyond, I'd really prefer not to talk. But, that isn't the only reason I hate talking on the phone. Unless there is an agenda, I experience major anxiety when I have to talk on the phone. This is especially the case when I am going to be talking to someone new. For some reason, I tend to overthink things. I dread the possibility of awkward silences and waning conversation. I prefer face to face interactions. Come see about me! Lol
3. I love old school theme songs. Great theme songs are such a thing of the past. Sometimes my favorite part of a program was the theme song.  I need to do some theme song karaoke, because yes, I know them all! I remember there was a John Legend after-party for one of his concerts. I got to the door, only to realize that I left my license at home. I begged the bouncer to use some other method to determine that I was of appropriate age to be there. Somehow we settled on me singing the theme song to Saved by the Bell. By the time I was half-way through the second verse, he let me in because he figured that I was around his age since I knew that! 
4. These are a few of my favorite things. I have periods where I basically become obsessed with something and it becomes my favorite until my mind/mood/taste changes and I get new favorites. Maybe it's a Gemini thing? Anyway, here's a list inside this list. Check out what's hot to me now: A) Wild n Out. It's a show of jokes and musical imrov. I watched it when it first came out and hadn't watched it for years, but for some reason I am in LOVE now. WNO is so clever and fun! I think it's cool how how Nick Cannon has taken people with some social media and YouTube fame and given them a chance at a larger platform. Folk like to call Nick corny, but he's a successful business man who has been in the game and thriving for years. If that's corny, I'll take it! B) Kettle corn. The perfect mix of salty and sweet! I get the microwaveable bags, but my FAVORITE kettle corn is Boom Chicka Pop. Not only is it delicious, but it is low calories, non-GMO, and gluten free! C) Amanda Seales. She is the actress who plays the married friend, Tiffany, on Insecure. I started following her on Instagram after seeing her on the show and became a huge fan! She's completely different from the character that she plays. Amanda is just so smart, funny, and black, which happens to be the name of her traveling game show where contestants compete to test their knowledge of black history, culture, and the overall black experience. 

Hopefully these little facts were interesting to you. Share a fun fact about yourself in the comments. I'd like to get to know you! Also, click here to send questions about anything that you may want to know about me. This may be something that I revisit.
