25 Things About Me

Because I am a copy cat and because I'm sure you were all dying to know, here are my 25 things about me:
(Idea totally stolen from Airing My Dirty Laundry's blog earlier this week.)


1. My hair is naturally curlier than it has a right to be. We're talking a cross between Bernadette Peters and a Spanish Water Dog curly, not wildly sexy Julia-Roberts-a'la-Pretty Woman curly. I used to spend 30 minutes a day flat ironing it.


2. I will be 39 next month and I'm kind of freaking out about that. It's also why I don't want to spend 30 minutes on hair anymore.

3. The way to my heart is through a pedicure.

4. I adore high heels and sometimes I buy them but then I feel like a little girl playing dress up so I end up wearing flip flops instead.

5. I once drove all the way across the country from California to Virginia by way of Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Tennessee pulling a U-Haul in a Suburban with 3 boys, my 89 year old great grandmother, and a cat. (Mr. Jones had flown out ahead of us to start working.) It took 7 days/6 nights. We all survived. 

6. I am allergic to walnuts but not pecans. They give me blisters in and around my mouth & swell my throat. This is not something you want to see. Ever.

7. My newest favorite book is The Help by Kathryn Stockett.

8. As a little girl my favorite book was On The Banks Of Plum Creek. For a time I believed myself to be the reincarnation of Laura Ingalls. 

9. As a tween my favorite book was Jacob I Have Loved

10. As a teen my favorite book was Flowers In The Attic. (And then all of the VC Andrews books ad nauseum.)

11. The other way to my heart is through strawberry a strawberry patch. I love to go berry picking & then eat them all gone. 

12. Last month I got offended at the wild bunny rabbits who hop through our backyard because they didn't touch the head of cabbage I gave them for days. For. Days. "It's not poison you know!" I maybe cried to them from the kitchen window. 

13. My favorite sitcom is The Big Bang Theory. I big-puffy-heart-love nerdy guys. 

14. I have 4 tattoos, this always shocks people because only the one on my inner ankle is visible. It's a pink daisy with a red ladybug. I wonder if the butterfly above my belly button will look like a moth when I'm 85?

15. If we don't move back home to California, then someday I'd like to move to Nashville. 

16. I am also allergic to stupid people. 

17. If it were up to me, every meal would be either Mexican food or cereal. 

18. In February I joined one of those bootcamp for women exercise classes. This can also be referred to as "the time I went insane". Susan Powter I am not. 

19. My idea of a hot date is dinner & a stand-up comedy show. 

20. I fully believe that since I am the only woman in the house I should never have to take out the trash. 

21. My biggest pet peeve in the whole wide world is eating noises. Unless something is crunchy, we should not hear you smacking your chops. I especially hate it when actors over-act the act of eating. Really? You have to suck your teeth & make gulping sounds between sentences? I wanted to beat Brad Pitt to a pulp in Ocean's Eleven. And I'm still not sure how "Eat, Pray, Love" made my top 10 movie list considering it's all about some chowin' down. 







22. My favorite SATC girl is Charlotte. 

23. I traumatized my husband with information I found on ancestry.com. That's an "in the near future" blog story. My own ancestry currently appears to be pretty damn boring; however I remain diligent in my quest to find a royalty link somewhere. It's got to be there. I can feel it. 

24. The only game show I like is Jeopardy.

25. I love going to watch plays. In the theater, at a high school, musical or not. 

Your turn?
