Everything Y'all Ever Wanted to Know about Nathan

According to Rachel Ann

1. He's sitting in front of the TV, what is on the screen?
Pretty much any Discovery Channel show about stuff's inner workings or blowing things up or crazy animals. In Bulgaria, he watched an obscene amount of British Animal Planet. Truly obscene.

2. You're out to eat; what kind of dressing does he get on his salad?
Caesar salad--the only salad that matters in his book.

3. What's one food he doesn't like?
He isn't a fan of whole wheat. He'll eat whole wheat things, but likes to try and sneak white bread into our cart at the store. In his words, "Rachel Ann, not everything has to be whole wheat."

4. You go out to the bar. What does he order?
Coke. Just Coke.

5. Where did he go to high school?
Raleigh Charter!

6. What size shoe does he wear?
13/ginormous

7. If he was to collect anything, what would it be?
Rubik's cubes. Books about Rubik's cubes. Dune audio books.

8. What is his favorite type of sandwich?

Ham--gross! Usually he settles for turkey because I don't freak out as much. I also buy the hormone-free turkey which usually gets the same response as whole wheat (ie--why does this matter so much to you). Last week in Trader Joe's he asked me this question and I'm not ashamed that I discussed rather loudly in the middle of the meat department why I thought it was important that the turkey could walk prior to its slaughter. Sue me. I'm not anti-meat, but I am anti-stupid unhealthy meats.

9. What would this person eat every day if he could?
Chips and really hot salsa. Coke. Jalapeno pizza.

10. What is his favorite cereal?
Whatever is on sale. He's a big cereal bargain shopper and so usually buys cereal at CVS. This week he's been eating Smacks.

11. What would he never wear?
Lilly pants.

12. What is his favorite sports team?
No favorite sports team. Really doesn't care about sports at all.

13. Who will he vote for?
At this point, who knows. No, really. I'm not just trying to avoid controversy on the blog. I don't think he knows yet.

14. Who is his best friend?
Matt and Nick. Matt, if you're reading this, Nathan misses you. Oh, and Matt, stop calling our house at 3 in the morning!

15. What is something you do that he wishes you wouldn't do?
Always buy whole wheat. :-) Um, and freak out?

16. How many states has he lived in?
Alabama, North Carolina and now Massachusetts. Three.

17. What is his heritage?
I want to say one of his distant relatives was a Scandinavian giant. I know some of his relatives are very much like the people discussed on a Prarie Home Companion. Norwegian, perhaps?

18. You bake him a cake for his birthday; what kind of cake?
Chocolate with chocolate frosting decorated with some sort of chocolate.

19. Did he play sports in high school?
Oh yes--crew team!

20. What could he spend hours doing?
Playing computer games, listening to Audio books, watching British Animal Planet.
