100 things, part four
61. When I was a kid, I refused to swim in our pool alone. I just knew that Jaws would come and eat me when I was alone. That's what happens when your parents think it is cool to let a four year old watch a scary movie.
62. I sometimes talk in my sleep. It worse when I was a kid than now as an adult. Darius also talks in his sleep.
63. It really creeps me out when my mother talks about sex.
64. I love to travel but I hate flying. Flying always makes me feel rather pukey
65. I cannot respect people who cannot make fun of themselves or let others make fun of them. Being able to laugh at yourself and laugh with others is a trait that too many people lack
66. I secretly wish I could be a SAHM. Especially on Mondays.
67. When I work from home, I have to have the TV on for background noise. Otherwise, the house is too quiet and I can’t work
68. I still nap when Darius naps. He’s almost four
69. It really annoys me when people take personal calls at work. And then talk really loudly so that everyone can hear you. Like we all need to know about the training schedule of your horses, lady.
70. I’ve been stung by a jelly fish. Over 160 stings on my left arm. The pain was comparable to child birth. That is, if you were giving birth out of your hand. But instead of a cute baby at the end, all I have to show for it is a faded scar.
71. I can make fab smoothies. It’s from the three years that I worked at Jamba Juice as a teen. Seriously, my smoothies are the best.
72. I heart sushi
73. When I was 10, my mom and stepdad decided that we would travel the country for 5 weeks. In a beat up Chevrolet. All the way to Florida and then back to California. They spent months planning it. We spent hours in the car every day. I can barely remember the trip. I feel kinda guilty that they would spend so much time/energy/money on a family vacation that turned out to be just okay.
74. I love listening to my dad’s childhood stories.
75. I am vehemently pro-choice and have a really hard time dealing with people who are not. This doesn’t bode well with my bible-thumping, pro-life, extended family.
76. If I had to pick one food that I had to eat for the rest of my life, it would be pizza. Hands down.
77. I permed my hair as a pre-teen. I thought it was the bomb. My thick wild hair was out of control during those years.
78. My first crush was on Domingo Rodriguez. I was ten.
79. I don’t really like soup.
80. I almost married two other men before I met Neville eight weeks before my 22nd birthday. One when I was just 18 and the other about 5 months before I met Neville.
Cool, new blog layout. Or am I just noticing it :) I so would not go in the for like a week after I saw Jaws - it was a black bottom pool and he so could have been in there. We're sleep talkers over here too :) And my parents use to occationally suggest driving to Florida, then realize we all just did not like each other that much.
