ABC…easy as 1, 2, 3
Written by Lauren Folkmann, Posted in Uncategorized
So last night I drank a little too much wine…and beer and Mike’s famous “Norman” drink. Needless to say I have done absolutely nothing productive today. So I figured I’d attempt a blog post, luckily a fun little “get to know me” ABC post is going around the blog world-I can handle that! I can’t promise my usual fantastically witty humor, hangovers tend to temporarily slow my brain cells down, but I’ll do my best for you guys!
H. Height: 6’1″…yes, I am tall…very tall.
I. Instruments you play: does Rock Band guitar count? haha! I used to play the Clarinet back in the day, but that’s where my musical abilities end!
J. Job title: Registered Business Analyst (a pharmacist gone corporate!)
K. Kids: Love them, but not for me….yet 😉

My best friend’s baby girl Lennon |
L. Live: Chicago…Chicago girl to the bone.
M. Mom’s name: Christine, super-mom, super-woman!

Wasn’t I the cutest baby ever?!? |
N. Nicknames: Lo, L, V,
O. Overnight stays in hospital: Exactly one year ago today I had to have an emergency appendectomy and stayed overnight at Northwestern Memorial….it sucked, a lot, but the staff at Northwestern are fantastic! At least I’ll never have to do that again!
P. Pet peeve: Slow drivers!
Q: Quote from a movie: “I like to think of Jesus with, like, big eagle’s wings, singing lead vocals for Lynyrd Skynyrd with, like, an angel band, and I’m in the front row, and I’m hammered drunk.” -Talladega Nights
R: Right or left handed: Right
S. Siblings: younger brother Stephen…love you SV!
T: Time you wake up: 5:55am on weekdays…and as late as I can get away with on the weekends!
U: Underwear: I usually buy mine from GapBody…but that’s all I’m sayin’!
V: Vegetables you dislike: Olives and artichokes (unless they’re drenched in a cheesy dip-the artichokes that is, I don’t like olives under any circumstances)
W: What makes you run late: If I can help it nothing-I hate being late….but sometimes traffic wins.
X: X-rays you’ve had: What x-rays haven’t I had? I broke my leg when I was younger and was always injuring my ankles and knees while playing basketball in high school, so I’m pretty sure my lower half has had its fair share of radiation. Between several other bumps and bruises I’m pretty sure my upper half has had its fair share as well!
Y: Yummy food you make: Not to toot my own horn, but I make lots of yummy food 🙂 My favs are my chocolate chip cookies and my spicy shrimp pasta!
Z: Zoo-favorite animal: Polar Bears!
