A couple weeks ago, my friend listed 45 things about herself on her blog, for journaling purposes. I had so much fun reading it, I decided to do it myself, then make it one of those much loved "tags". So, make sure to go to the bottom to see if I "tagged" you! :) Here goes!
1. I've never had a cavity.
2. I do not like my “birthing” hips.
3. I want to write a book before I die.
4. I take really hot showers. Scorching hot.
5. I have an unnatural fear of bugs.
6. I carry mace with me almost everywhere.
7. I lick my ice cream bowls clean. (My grandmother used to tease me that I’d never get a husband doing that. Trav now does it too.)
8. I wish I had done sports in high school.
9. I love getting lost in a book.
10. I write out “to do” lists frequently.
11. I don’t adapt well to change, nor do I like it.
12. I miss teaching so much that it hurts sometimes.

16. I danced to “Crank dat” (rap) for my class on the last day of school.
17. I don’t like red meat, never have. Bacon and steak are vile.
18. I wish I didn’t care what other people thought.
19. I wore blue contacts for a couple years.
20. I can’t sing for the life of me.
21. I want to get my masters degree.

24. I am a big time germ-a-phob.
25. I do not like animals- they encompass the whole "germ" thing to me.
26. I have at one point in my life learned to crochet, knit, embroider, sew, and do counted cross stitch, but can no longer remember how to do any of it!
27. I want to learn Spanish so bad. The Rosetta Stone is on my list of “Things I’ll buy when we have money”.
28. I wish I didn’t have a “Things I’ll buy when we have money” list and could just be happy being poor.
29. I will eat food after I’ve brushed my teeth for the night, and will not brush them again.

33. I have a constant urge to “document” my life with journal entries and pictures.
34. I’m afraid of what’s under the ocean.
35. I have a streak of road rage that’s embarrassing.

38. I have rolled a car- oddly enough I did not swear then.
39. I hate being cold! I’d much rather be too hot than too cold.
40. I think animals and inanimate objects that act like they are human (you know, in commercials or the movies) is pure comic genius.
41. I edit everything I read.

42. I will lie to avoid hurting someone's feelings.
43. I love frozen, burnt cookies. Not just “a little on the done side”, I’m talking charred. Cold, black cookies = Yum!
44. I love Harry Potter and wish they would make a Hogsworth theme park. I would go every year.
45. I want to have at least one of my babies without an epidural. (Sorry, for once I don’t care what you think.)
46. I am a perfectionist in most things.
47. I think the absolute BEST smell in the world is a tire store, hands down. (In college, a friend actually gave me a tire to keep in my room so it could smell like a tire store.)
48. I am a people-pleaser.

Okay I got tagged, now what do I do? Write 50 things about me? By the way, I loved your list. I never would have pegged you as a tire sniffing burnt cookie eater!
Love it! I just laughed when I read the lick the bowl of ice cream. I remember the first time I saw you do it...classic! :) XOXO
Loooove it. Might take me a while to do this... but I will do it :) and after reading all of yours we are going to have kind of similair lists.
It took me 3 days, but im finally UTD on your blog. *whew* I was feeling way out of the loop. Your little man has grown up so much! I can't wait to see him in a few weeks! I would totally go to the Hogwarts theme park! what a fantastic Idea. Okay I just googled it: http://www.universalorlandoresort.com/harrypotter/?intsrch=harry potter
SPRING OF 2010!
I am so glad you did this!!! It is so fun to read random tidbits of people that you think you know pretty well. Burnt cookies? Tires? Teddy bear...Is it Trav? love it.
How do I spell check my blog posts? I used to know how and now I don't. Since you are the "editor", you must know. thanks.
My favorite is that you edit everything you read. You probably think I am such an idiot. I don't think I can think of that many things. I will try!
heh heh, i liked #36, it reminded me of when we were in the ghetto g and you forgot moms credit card in the drive thru atm at the bank.. i think that was the first time ive heard your sailor mouth.
Of course about half the list is exactly me too. Then the other have is completely NOT me. SO we are a perfect balance of each other!!! I love the smell of tires and hardware store as well....yum yum.
I agree with so much of your stuff. I REALLY wish I had been brave enough to try out for sports or run in high school. I personally remember one of those cuss words coming out when Jenni almost got us killed in Cali after eating at Red Lobster. Good times though. It's also a pet peeve of mine when people don't know how to talk or spell correctly. It's a fun post. I'll post mine soon, at least it gives me something else I need to write about. Nothing crazy has been going on this week. Love your guts, even if you do lick your ice cream bowl. (I usually lick the wings container when I make them, at least they are a little healthier)
