Random Things About Me

• I can't dance. Please do not ask for a demonstration. You'll be sorry if you do.
• I hallucinate at night - gigantic grasshoppers and spiders, people attacking me, children spilling things, you name it. I think my husband is amused.
• Goosebumps are quite common for me - I get them when I'm cold, when I need a shower, or if I need to go to the bathroom.
• I am hopelessly addicted to Dr Pepper. And ice cream. And milkshakes. And sweet tea. And.....oh man, I've got a problem here.....
• Bottoms of shoes freak me out. Don't even think about putting yours near me.
  
• I've given birth four times - once with an epidural, once totally natural, once as an emergency c-section, and once as a scheduled c-section. I should have one more so I can have a home birth! JK.
• I absolutely adore little baby and kid hineys!
• I love to play the piano. I'm a decent player now, but used to be pretty good. A mommy of four doesn't get much opportunity to practice.
  
• I aspire to be a great cook one day. I'm not doing anything to achieve this goal other than cooking for my family of 6. I figure this particular goal will eventually be met on its own.
• I have very long toes and the second is the longest. MY husband doesn't let me forget it either.
• I have eaten snake, octopus, alligator, frog, duck, lamb, shark, deer, buffalo, and quail. Tastes like chicken! Ha!
• My feet grow every time I have a baby. If I had as many kids as Michelle Duggar and my feet continued the same growth pattern, I would wear a size 17 1/2!
• I love watching LOST, American Idol, Criminal Minds, Grey's Anatomy, Law and Order, CSI, John & Kate Plus 8, Yes Dear, Everybody Loves Raymond...."There's not enough time, there's not enough time!" (as Jessie Spano would say)
• I very much dislike brushing my teeth at night. My husband pushes me out of the bed if I haven't though so I usually do.
• My heart beats faster when I go into a second hand shop for kids. The thrill of the hunt is so great!
• I used to have a red convertible. A drunk driver hit us and totaled it though.
• I lived with my in-laws for a year and survived. In fact, it was kind of nice!
• I do not like chick flicks. I prefer intense, suspenseful, or scary.
• My husband and I missed our flight for our honeymoon to Hawaii. If you know my husband, this is no surprise.
• I cannot handle hearing someone eat. It absolutely makes me crazy. Smacking, slurping, loud swallowing, crunching. I'm cringing just typing it!
• I'm terrified of escalators. (yes, there's a story there - maybe one day I'll post it.)
