How appropriate for my 200th post! (confetti)
I spent all of this energy doing this little thingy for my facebook I figured I'd put it on here, too. It's random. Enjoy....
Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
(To do this, go to "notes" under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish.)
1. Though I do it quite a bit out of obvious necessity, I really don't like cooking. I really have to stick to the recipes, unless it's something I make a lot, the success is not guaranteed, It's devoured in like five minutes.... AAHHH!
2. I absolutely love my husband. He's one of the smartest, perceptive, most resilient, loving people I know.
3. I was a major nail biter until I got braces when I was 13. Then I couldn't seem to make it work anymore. Hmmm...
4. I absolutely cannot fall asleep if my feet are cold (which is most of the time). They're caled Bed Buddies. You can get them at Walgreen's.
5. When I eat a muffin, scone, etc, I don't take bites out of it -- I break it off into little pieces with my fingers and eat it.
6. I would audition for American idol, but I'm too old. Boo.
7. My favorite swear word is "crap"
8. I have an unreasonable fear of locking my keys in my car though I've only done it like twice in my whole life. This fear is so overwhelming that if I am leaving my keys in the ignition even if I KNOW the doors are unlocked, I will roll down the window. Even if it's raining.
9. My favorite singer is Eva Cassidy. God rest her soul....
10. If I had my way, I would stay up until like 2am every night and sleep until 10 or 11am.
11. I love my boys very much. They're so awesome. Though I would never trade any of them, I would have really loved to have had a girl. Not in the plans I guess.
12. I'm a voracious reader. I have a list of favorite authors a mile long.
13. I have five holes in my ears. First one on my eighth birthday, the second a week before HS graduation and the cartilage in my left ear when I was about 26. I wouldn't mind one more, but we'll see. Also wouldn't mind a simple tattoo. We'll see about that, too.
14. I am an extremely frugal person - almost to the point that I have to tell myself to relax and just enjoy life a bit.
15. I make my own ringtones.
16. I grew five inches in three months - the summer between 6th and 7th grades. I ended 6th grade at a normal 5'2" and started 7th at a freakish 5'7". Made junior high REAL fun!
17. I'm a little OCD about returning videos. I will check the case like a million times to make sure I have the right DVD in the case. I know. Weird.
18. If given a blank map of the United States, I could identify all of the states and name the capitals.
19. Until my early 20's, I had never set foot in a salon. My hair had always been cut and permed (yes, permed) in my kitchen by my mother.
20. I have never had my wisdom teeth removed because I was born without any (as was my sister).
21. I can't rap. At all. It's amusing, actually.
22. The house in which I grew up did not have am oven. Only a stove top and a microwave.
23. I am very crafty - scrapbooking, crochet, I used to sew (and miss it)...
24. To amuse ourselves as young teenagers, my sister and I made movies (soap operas, commercials, talk shows, murder mysteries, etc.) with any unsuspecting friends who happened to be spending the night. They are...... awesome.
25. I wore glasses from the time I was ten, contacts from the time I was 13. About two years ago I got Lasik and it has been one of the best things I've ever done. I only wish I had done it sooner!
