10 things you might not know about me (or want to know either)


If you're not laughing by the time you're finished with this, go smack yourself because you need to lighten up. Oh, and these are all real.

1. I am not a morning person. In fact, I'm not a night person either. I'm kind of a broad daylight person. If it gets dark, I'm ready to go to bed. In fact, I was asleep by 8:20 last night and was giddy about it.

2. I am mean as a bear if you wake me up unexpectedly within the first two hours of my going to sleep. Also, I get "googlie eyes" if I wake up during this time, oh, and I don't always wake up. I'll carry on a really real conversation with googlie eye and not know it. Freaky I know. It creeps Mason out - really it does.

3. I quietly obsess about shoes and truly delight when I can buy a new pair for any reason, but I never buy the pairs that I actually want because I try to be more practical. If I had a lot of money I would own a small country's worth of shoes. Thank goodness I don't have a lot of money.

4. I sneak to watch the Girls Next Door (yes, the Heff, Holly, Bridget, and Kendra Show). I usually do it on Sunday nights when the band is at the house and upstairs, and I have put Clare down to sleep. If I hear anyone coming down the stairs, I turn it to another channel.

5. I don't care that you just gasped that I sneak the Girls Next Door.

6. I write notes to myself on the back of my hand because I refuse to get any version of PDA or phone that will function as a phone and PDA. Don't want to be too connected. The back of the hand works better than the palm, but it is more conspicuous. I do this because the palm is more likely to transfer to my face. Yes, I know what you're thinking.

7. I await the mail truck like it's the second coming. I don't know why. Mason busted me on Tuesday about this. I thought I was hiding it.

8. I hate boogers. Hate hate hate them. I keep Kleenex with me at all times. They literally feel like rocks in your nose.

9. I can stare so hard at something that I actually can't hear what people around me are saying. Sometimes I have to ask people to repeat themselves because this happens. I believe this is referred to as day dreaming, it's much like my googlie eye dream talking, but it's while I'm awake and really it's the opposite.

10. I want to learn Spanish, but I'm too lazy. I even bought the Rosetta Stone and threw the hundreds of dollars away, but would rather be sleeping.
