the husband’s seven random facts

October 25, 2008

So I guess I’m really IT right? I’ve been tagged by Mai da Paypay, and I have to post seven random facts about me. Let’s see if I’m interesting enough to fill all seven. Here we go.

1. Here’s a shocker to kick things off. I hate beef. Given the chance to be the President of the World (because the Philippines won’t just cut it), I’d ban eating beef. Of course, I’ll be needing Mai’s telepathic abilities to do this.

2. I’m allergic to sayote (chayote) and eggplant. I get all red and hot, and not that kind you pervs. I get this rash all over that’s very hot and itchy.

3. I can go four days not taking a shower. That’s my record so far. And I’m pretty damn proud of it. ;) Hey! Here’s an idea. Let’s make a contest out of this. Excellent! Any takers?

4. I don’t wear jeans. In the last five or six years, I think I’ve only worn jeans three times. I only have one pair. I usually wear wool slacks on “regular’ days and khakis on “dress-down” days. I just think jeans are too heavy and somehow stunt my growth. See number 5 for details.

5. I still believe that I’m growing, physically I mean. I long for the day when I reach 5′10′’. Much like I believe that there is a Santa Claus and that I’m not adopted. I jest of course.

6. I like cheese. Which probably explains my fondness for cheese ice cream (my current favorite is that from Amici de Don Bosco); cheesecake, specifically baked cheesecake please, pure and unadulterated (my wife makes one mean cheesecake); and cheese hopia (from Sonya’s Secret Garden, Tagaytay).

7. When I was younger, I never wanted to get married (I have my trusty electric blanket to keep me warm, so who needs a wife). But what do I know right? My wife comes along, knocks me senseless (literally, because she’s freakishly stronger than I am), and BAM! I’m an excellent, not to mention very good looking, thank you very much, husband in the making.

Ok! That didn’t seem so hard. Now I guess it’s time to tag somebody. Hmm…to whom shall I bestow the honor. I choose you Mordsith and Kumareng Grace.

eks: Game! Haha! Yup! I still don’t eat tokwa. I like taho and to-fu though.

Mordsith: Good thing I’m kinda liking dark blue and brown now huh!?

Mai: Good to know. Try stretching to a few days, hehe ;)

kg: Thanks! OK din yun hehe.

Jeanny: You noticed?! The guys here have been making fun of me for doing that!

ka2x: I don’t think I’d be able to kiss me wife if I do that. :)

Kayni: You haven’t tasted cheese ice cream?! Your missing out! Drop by Amici or even FIC (fruits in ice cream) when you get here.
