His teacher was at our wedding. He even did some study abroad in college on Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia.<\/p>\n<p>[+] <strong>He loves jazz.<\/strong> I got him a membership in the Sacramento Traditional Jazz Society for his birthday which is something he can do on his own&#8230; because I hate jazz.  Oh yes&#8230; I also got him a CD of some jazz I could mildly stand and let him listen to it in the car on the way back to northern California.<\/p>\n<p>[+] <strong>He is about 9 inches taller than me.<\/strong> I&#8217;m 5&#8217;1&#8243;&#8230; on a bad hair day.  He&#8217;s 5&#8217;10&#8221;.  He dwarfs me in pictures.<\/p>\n<p>[+] <strong>He is an extrovert.<\/strong> About 80% of clergy are introverts so he&#8217;s the exception. I&#8217;m an introvert so before we had Daniel, we used to go to events in separate cars so I could leave when I was overstimulated.<\/p>\n<p>[+] <strong>When he is on a long phone call, he micro-folds pieces of paper.<\/strong> I&#8217;ll find pieces of paper folded into really tight squares around the house.  I need to get him an origami book or something.<\/p>\n<p>[+] <strong>He is a Dodger fan.<\/strong> Don&#8217;t look at me!  I don&#8217;t understand it either.  I mean, it works this year when his team isn&#8217;t &#8220;cellar-dwelling&#8221; but usually, they&#8217;re sucktastic at best!<\/p>\n<p>[+] <strong>He is an Ole.<\/strong>  Translation: he is a graduate of <a href=\"http:\/\/wp.stolaf.edu\/\" title=\"St. Olaf College\">St. Olaf College<\/a> in Minnesota.  Um Ya Ya!  Like most Oles, he studied abroad.  (Seriously, the first question I ask people when I find out that they&#8217;re an Ole is where they studied abroad or will be studying.)<\/p>\n<p>Now go see <a href=\"http:\/\/frommrstomama.com\" title=\"Becky @ From Mrs. to Mama\">Becky<\/a> and what <a href=\"http:\/\/www.frommrstomama.com\/2013\/10\/all-you-need-to-know-about-my-other.html\" title=\"everyone else\">everyone else<\/a> shared.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week&#8217;s topic: random facts about Jon.
