I’m It
Ok, I have been delinquent in responding to Clayton from Salesopedia and his tag of me. Apparently I have to share 8 little known things about me. I’ll give it a try:
- I am a twin. I have a “younger” sister - I was born 3 min. before her. Still counts.
- Although I live in Minnesota, I was born in Ann Arbor, MI and bleed Maize and Blue. I only lived there the first 5 years of my life, but it had a huge impact on me no matter what the Rock Star says.
- I met my wife at work. I was in sales and she was in marketing. We worked together for 6 months before we found out that we were both ferret owners. I had a male ferret named Otto and she had a female ferret named Emily.
- There is no sport I enjoy more than hockey. It is simply the coolest game on Earth.
- I have a weakness for reality shows.
Even So You Think You Can Dance. Definitely TMI. - I have a desire to be a coffee barrista at Dunn Bros. Irrational, maybe, but truly a passion of mine.
- I’m a dog guy - can’t stand cats. I may get flamed over this, but I had to share it.
- I once took a yoga class in college to basically meet some cute gals. At the end of the class, we would stand in a circle as the teacher dismissed us. One time I sat too long with my legs crossed and both legs fell asleep. I was right next to a female student I was hoping to impress. I tried to stand up but kept falling down like a French prizefighter. The entire class stared at me as they tried to suppress their laughter. After multiple attempts, I finally stood there like a newborn deer - teetering on my asleep legs as the teacher quickly dismissed us. The gal next to me did not appear to be impressed. In any way. Ever.
