15 Random facts

I think I must be boring or something, cause apparently, none of my friends love my anymore. Nobody comments on my blog. Ok, ok, Kiera usually comments, but she hasn't lately, but she has family visiting, so I guess I'll let it slide. And Josh and Hussy commented on my last one, so they are the only ones that TRULY love me. So, if David and I are both killed at the same time, I leave my child to them. That's right, Josh and Hussy will have to move in together and raise Ethan a la "My Two Dads." Josh gets to be the uptight one. Good luck!

I liked making the 100 random facts list so much that I've decided to do more, only I think 100 is a bit much for me AND you, so I'm just doing 15 this time. As an added challenge, I'm going to try to make this one sex free! Let's see how I do. Here we go:

15) I salt and pepper most of the foods that I eat (not desserts). I even salt and pepper salad and cottage cheese.

14) In 7th grade, when I didn't really have any friends, I had a few people who would occasionally spend time with me. One day one of those girls poured orange soda into my shoe while I was in PE. (my shoe was in the locker room.) When I asked her why she did it, she looked embarrassed and ashamed and said that "they" told her to, and she didn't know what else to do. I told her that I understood. And I did. I knew that under the same circumstances, I would have done the same thing.

13) Also in 7th grade, when I was in Computer Science class one day and we were doing stuff on Apple 2e's. They have an "apple" button instead of a Ctrl key, and my teacher, when writing instructions on the board, would draw a little circle with a line coming out of it to represent the apple. One day I said that I didn't think it looked like an apple, it looked more like a cherry, and my classmates thought that was HILARIOUS! I had no idea why, but they were all telling me how awesome that was, and high fiving me and crap. After that, I made some friends, and even the people who were most evil towards me before slacked off. Of course, I found out that cherry was also something "dirty." Therefore, being dirty and shocking=friends. I think anyone that knows me would agree that this was probably one of the furthest reaching events of my developmental years.

12) I don't like cinnamon.

11) When I was a kid I had a white parasol with a ruffle around the edge and my name written on it in purple cursive. I loved that damn thing. I thought it was the fanciest thing ever.

10) When I was a teenager, I heard that the year after Tabitha was born on Bewitched, Tabitha was the most popular girls name. I thought that was retarded, and swore that if I ever had kids, I would never name a child of mine after a character on a TV show.

9)Mission Impossible (which is a remake of a TV show) came out the year Ethan was born, so people were always asking me if I named him after Tom Cruise's character. I always said, "No way, I would never name a child after a character from a movie! I just like that name." But I actually did get the name from the movie!! shhh. Don't tell.

8) As far as I can remember, I've never told ANYONE about #9. (Even Ethan's dad!)

7) When I was a kid, we used to have book covers from 1st State Bank for all our school books. They had a big 1 on the front. I used to draw in pretty lady mice in all the 1's. Like the top point is the top of the head and the part sticking out in front was the nose. I'm weird.

6) In elementary school, my art teachers would give me extra tips that they didn't tell the rest of the class.

5) I hate doing dishes. I would rather clean the toilet than do the dishes.

4) Extremely old people give me the willies.

3) I really want to like licorice. It seems so interesting to like licorice. But, I still think it's gross.

2) I want flying cars, dammit. Seriously.

1) Cats (or anybody else for that matter) with tumors seriously seriously wig me out.

I made it! 15 random facts, and not a single one was about boys or sex! Unless you count Ethan, but I didn't write about his conception, so I don't count that. :)

See, now, I would LOVE to raise a kid that I didn't have to push outta myself. I'm so up to the challenge. But only if I get to wear leg warmers like the female cast of My Two Dads.

Go for it! Wear all the lag warmers you can squeeze onto each leg! I think they have to be brightly hued as a rule, though.

Old people give me the willies too....I get the same feeling from them as I do watching a nurse stick me/someone with a needle...*shudder*

yeah, that's one of the reasons we get along so well!
