I've been seeing this around facebook and new I'd get tagged eventually, so I thought I'd put this on my blog as it's easier than sending it out to 25 people and I don't know who's already done this and who hasn't....so here's mine: (these are in no particular order)
1: I was saved at age 7....baptized not long after by Rev. Dan Gelatt
2: I've never broken a bone, I've never had a bloody nose
3: I don't wear makeup much, I hate mascara, lipstick gets eaten off...blush, maybe I'll wear it, if I can find my blush brush....but normally, I don't wear any.
4: I love chinese food and yes I can eat with chopsticks....my mom taught me how when I was little. I also love good ribs and pulled pork....Famous Dave's is the best.
5: I'm terribly afraid of heights and can get claustrophobic at times......even with the acrophobia, I love love love rollarcoasters..go figure.
6: I've never drunk a whole glass of milk...I can't stand the stuff...even as a baby my mom said I didn't drink it. No, I'm not lactose int.....I do fine with ice cream and cheese. I also don't eat salad dressing...I love salad, just no dressing. I also don't eat mayonnaise, sour cream, dips, salsa, pinto/ kidney/ lima/yellow/refried or wax beans.....Yes, I'm a picky eater. I also don't drink coffee or tea.
7: I had a cathode ablasion (sp?) when I was 22. It's a form of heart surgery that doesn't involve opening the chest. I was told I was the second youngest person in our city to have it done. I still struggle with heart problems, but not nearly as much as I did in college.
8: I'm not a patient person when it comes to slow drivers. I try to take in account for people who are elderly or young kids who are just learning....it's something I need to work on. I've only ever used my horn twice. (I don't like to use it)
9: I'm learning to juggle
10: I have been working on sign language for about 13 years. I can interpret almost anything, but I can't read it, which means if you were to sign something more complicated than, My name is...I would have problems
11: I love animals and don't want to hear any deer hunting stories or any other tortuous things people may have done to their pets/animals in the frivolity of childhood, I will cry and be haunted by it.
12: I love to read children's literature.....I read the popular, the silly and the newberry or other award winning books. If I was ever to return to college for a master's degree, I'd get it in children's literature.
13: I am a swing voter. I don't believe one side is always right and one side is always wrong. I can't, in my own good conscious, vote on just 1 issue.
14: I used to play the flute....always wished I could play the piano...and play it WELL!
15: I wish I could natually harmonize while singing. I can memorize that alto/harmony, but can't naturally pick it out. My voice has dropped some over the years and I can almost sing tenor in almost everything.
16: (I have to steal some ideas I saw for others and just fit me) Disneyworld is my favorite place to travel to. I've been there about 10 times and still get goosebumps when I travel there. I love it.
17: I love to road travel. In one year, Michael and I travelled coast to coast by car. We went to the San Juan Islands off the coast of WA for our anniversary one year and then, the same year, we went to Hilton Head VA.
18: I need/must have a straightened house. I can't stand clutter. (I'm stealing this from my friend Jen Boice) If I know someone is coming over, I'll clean/straighten until they visit, even if they are just stopping by to pick something up. My husband is a pack rat, which makes life intersting for us both. :D
19: I'm not a fan of jewelry. I LOVE my wedding ring/engagement ring, but I don't wear earings, necklaces or bracelets. I went through a short period of my life when I wore anklets, but that didn't last long.
20: I enjoy public speaking....this doesn't mean that I speak up in Sunday School.
21: I love acting and would love to someday be in a theater group.
22: I order the same item at each restaurant I go to. This doesn't mean I order chicken at each restaurant, this means that at Olive Garden I always get the Fett. Alfredo, at Famous Dave's I always get the rib tips.....I HARDLY ever order something different. I've seen too many family members disappointed and hungry because they were adventurous.
23: I've seen the following people live..either in theater productions or as speakers.
Ian Mckellen, John Malkovich, Helen Mirran, Gabriel Byrne, Patrick Stewart, Tim Robbins, Art Spegalman (author), Sherman Alexai, (Screenwriter), Patty Lepone, Michael Cevaris, John Heard, Hank Azaria, David Hyde Pierce, Tim Curry and we are to see Chazz Palmanterri in a play in about 2 months.
24: My daughter's b-day is exactly 6 months after mine.......meaning...that mine is Feb. 24 and hers is Aug. 24. My son's due date was June 24th, but he came 2 weeks early.
25: My husband and I didn't have a very good first date, and I remember telling my roommate at the time that I didn't really want to go out with him again, but here we are 7 1/2 years into our marriage and going strong....to this day, I don't remember what he said or did to get me to go out with him again, but good thing, 'cause I'm so lucky to have him.

I can't eat with chopsticks. I've tried, but I guess if I want to eat my food while it's still warm, I need to eat with a fork.
Public speaking makes me nervous, but I do like it. When I took speech as a freshman at IUSB, I loved that those people had to sit and listen to me for 5 minutes and weren't allowed to go anywhere. It's kind of powerful. ;)
