i’m having laptop issues. first, the internet was slooooooooow. then i had to reboot. and now i have index finger issues from the stupid-ass j-mouse. i really need attach a normal mouse to it…but that would get all complicated in bed. bah.
anyway, i thought that once i got feeling back in my finger, i’d tell you some things you probably don’t know about me.
1. i have a geographic tongue. really, i do! but mostly only when i’m pregnant.
2. i sleep in socks. always. well…actually, i fall asleep wearing socks every single night and i wake up with the socks on the floor beside me every morning. oh, and i sleep with one eye partially open. and it freaks the husband out.
3. i am a pretty big sports fan. especially basketball. in high school, i actually had posters of David Robinson plastered all over my bedroom. i even collected basketball cards. and went to games as much as possible.
4. i have an agnostic sister, a pentecostal brother, and a jewish brother. we are like the mini-UN. and somehow it works. i love them all, and respect what each believes (or doesn’t believe).
5. i don’t like ice cream. i know. there’s something wrong with me. back in my SAHM days, i spent way too much time at Not Just Yogurt…a frozen yogurt place…and i can’t look at frozen yogurt or ice cream anymore. i also won’t eat dessert if it has fruit in it…unless it’s banana cake. i love banana cake.
your turn. tell me five things i might not know about you!

come say hi at Cheaper Than Therapy. i’d love to see you over there!
hmm – this question really got my attention – I love reading people’s quirks! I will try to think of mine…
1 – I love watching teeny bopper flicks – all of them
2 – I still like to smoke when I drink; I know it’s a nasty terrible, unhealthy habit, I hate the smell afterwards but I still love smoking – it’s just awful!!!
3 – I am addicted to the internet, especially facebook right now; after putting my kids to bed I can’t wait to get on the computer
4 – I hate sleeping naked & even when I’m hot I still need my comforter to sleep well
5 – I am a shopaholic; I know every women thinks they are but I truly am…I don’t care about debt, I pay what I can & shop some more
1. I had a miscarriage when I was 26 (so nearly 16 years ago). I swore up and down it was girl and had named her Alexandra Sarah Joy – hence couldn’t use that name again.
2. My mother died horribly of ovarian cancer 10 days after her first grandchild was born in the same hospital, on the same floor down the hall.
3. I have perfect teeth – no braces, no cavities, nada.
4. I used to be a size 4-6 – I was too skinny.
5. I am the world’s biggest Genesis fan, bar none.
Weird… I have the same recurring “discovering new rooms in my house” dream. Wonder what it means?
Besides that, I’ve got nothin’!
1. i have these two strange dreams. in one my teeth keep falling out. in the other i keep discovering new rooms in my house.
2. my mom has the same room dream. weird.
3. the ocean mystifies me.
4. once i start playing solitaire on the computer, i can’t stop until i win the game.
5. when in a large crowd of people, i need to fidget with something to concentrate on a conversation.
Here’s my 5
1) I have an earlobe fetish.
2) I love the smell of coffee but think it tastes like dirt.
3) I couldn’t stand the newborn thing. NEVER again.
4) I pierced my own ears…4 in one ear, 3 in the other…while listening to Madonna’s Lucky Star.
5) Not sure if this is quirky but the older I get and the more nightmare family stories I hear the more odd it seems to be – My parents and my two sisters are my bestest friends.
Cool things! Isn’t it fun to be quirky? I’m the same with the socks thing. The hard part for me of challenges like this is to limit the number of quirks I list. =P
1) I might be pregnant. Wow.
2) I shave my toes.
3) I watch kids movies, even when the kids are sleeping. I like ’em, okay?
4) I want to write and publish a book someday, but I’m scared to start writing it.
5) Josh Groban’s voice gives me goose bumps.
THANK you for posting Blake again — I so wanted to see that again! (I didn’t get to watch it now, but I will later).
Your 5 things are HILARIOUS! All of them — especially the socks and the eye thing — are too much!
I can’t think of anything of my own right now. I’m an open book. I wear my quirks on my sleeve — especially when preggers. Maybe tomorrow when I’m more awake. 😉
