All About Me

Ok.. so I got tagged by the weirdest, yet awesomest person I have ever met... my sister Jenna. I have to list 25 random things about myself. This is probably going to be hard but hopefully not too boring for those of you who may read this. And Jenna... some things might look like I copied yours, but whether you want to admit it or not, we have alot in common!! So apparently the rules are as follows: once you've been tagged, you have to make a list of 25 random things, facts,habits, or goals about yourself. At the end, choose 5 people to be tagged and list their names at the bottom. You also have to tag the person who tagged you.So here goes!

1.

I used to be pretty athletic. Not saying I'm not still athletic, but I am definately past my athletic prime. I played all sports growing up. Basketball and volleyball in middle school, and softball in highschool. I was always pretty good at any sport you threw at me. I am pretty out of practice now though!! I play a little coed softball in the summer, but I am pretty out of shape. I would love to be able to pick up and play some more.

2.

In my "adult" years I have become pretty much a freak when it comes to other peoples germs. To give a couple examples... everyday at work when I first get there, before I do anything else, I take the hospital quality "germicidal" wipes, and wipe down everything from my desk, keyboard, phone, and armrests on my chair. Even if I am pretty sure I was the last one to touch it, you just never know. And anytime I go on a trip, I always pack my Clorox wipes with me. When staying in a hotel, have you ever given any thought to what the last person who touched the remote was doing while holding it. EEWWW! I wipe that down along with any table tops or toilets. And don't get me started on the bed spreads. You will never find me laying on one or covering up with one.

3.

I love chocolate!! Chocolate chip cookies, chocolate brownies, chocolate butterscotch peanut butter rice krispy treats... and the list goes on.

4.

My biggest fear isn't that someone will break in and murder me, it is that if someone does break in and murder me what will happen to my kids. Will they just sit around scared and not know what to do? How long will they be there until someone finds out that something happened? Wouldn't that be sad. Hopefully Blake is old enough to know to go get a neighbor or someone.

5.

I am really weird behind closed doors. I am constantly dancing silly or making up silly songs for my kids. It is just fun making them laugh. Although sometimes I think they are just straight up freaked out by me. Hopefully I am not messing them up too bad.

6.

I am a horrible singer. I am so bad that even my own parents tell me I'm bad. It is really too bad because I love to sing and so my family has to hear it anyways!!

7.

I am a shopaholic. I have every Friday off and I have a really hard time staying away from the stores on that day. Terry always teases saying that we need to get me a part time job for Friday because it costs us too much money for me to have that day off.

8.

I love to draw and color. Which is pretty awesome cause Ashlyn loves to draw and color too so we can just sit down at the kitchen table and do it together.

9.

I am pretty competitive. It kills me when I loose. I always have to have a rematch. Especially if it is against Terry!!! I can't stand it when he beats me!!!!

10.

I had to have surgery and have my appendix out while I was 10 weeks pregnant with Ashlyn. I was worried that something would happen to her but everyting turned out just fine.

11.

I love animals. Dogs and cats are my favorites. I can't watch the animal planet cause there are always those shows where animals are being neglected. It just makes me so sad!

12.

I always wanted to be an teacher, but I have never even begun a day of college, so there goes that idea!

13.

I love Diet Dr. Pepper.

14.

When I am eating, I have to take a drink of whatever i am drinking between each bite. It just makes the food taste better and easier to swallow. I had know idea, but supposedly that is a weird thing. But if you ask me, i think people who enjoy being thirsty between every bite are the weird ones. (Amber)

15.

My favorite color is RED!

16.

I have a really hard time making new friends. Girls are intimidating to me. And once you do start hanging out it is hard to get past that awkward stage.

17.

I hate to cook. Its no so much the actual cooking part, its trying to figure out what to cook. I feel like I am constantly cooking the same old thing. I am open to any of you giving me some ideas along with the recipe! :)

18.

My dad shot me in the ankle with a B B gun. And the B B is still in my ankle.

19.

I would like to learn how to speak spanish. It just sounds like so much fun.

20.

I was a horrible student in high school. (I know... its very hard to believe. I am so intelligent.)

21.

I once got hit in the face by a two by four. It knocked all of the braces off my teeth and made them stick to my lips. It instantly gave me two black eyes, swelled up my lips, and gave me a huge nose. I had to go to the emergency room so they could remove the braces from my lips. Luckily everything when back to their normal size and color. (How did I get hit in the face by a two by four?? Its a long story, ask me some other time.)

22.

I would like to take a photography class.

23.

I got stuck in the leg with a javelin. My friend was practicing throwing the javelin in a field at our high school. She was practicing with another girl. They were throwing the javelin back and forth across the field to eachother. I was laying in the grass at a safe distance. (so I thought) The other girl threw it back to my friend, but when it hit the ground it did not stick, it bounced and then slid right over into my upper thigh. I got a pretty good gash and it bled pretty good, but it healed up on its own.

24.

I was voted most loyal friend my senior year in high school.

25.

I don't have a ton of friends, but the friends that I do have are the best.

Alright, so TAG, your it: Jenna, Amber, Brittany, and Ali.
