So why not me? A lot of bloggers have been making up these lists and since I enjoy them so much, I thought I'd try it. I thought it would be hard to do, but once I started I realized it was pretty easy. Then I wondered if that made me too self-involved, to be able to easily come up with this many random facts about myself? I'm going for more Self Aware than Self Involved so I hope I come across that way.
I wrote this list up a good three weeks ago but have been trying to find the time to post it.
I would love to write 100 things about Jeremy or 100 things about Jack, and maybe I will someday. In the meantime, this list is easier so there you have it.
1. I prefer to stay in and watch a movie than go out on the town.
2. I love to sleep and need 9 hours to truly be satisfied.
3. I would give anything to only need 6 hours, I could be so much more productive!
4. I am VERY ticklish.
5. I can be very forgetful and spacey.
6. I hate confrontation.
7. My husband is my best friend.
8. I hate the smell and taste of fish more than anything.
9. I canNOT eat Olives. Gross.
10. I am not a fan of watching TV, though if I do, The Office is my favorite show... Arrested Development used to be my favorite when it was on the air.
11. I like to read but seldom do...unless you count Parenting magazine or House Plan books.
12. I make to do lists then lose them.

14. I never put my debit card or my cell phone back in the same spot in my purse and have to search everytime I need either.
15. I drive until the gas needle is PAST the "E", before filling up. This drives Jeremy crazy. Still haven't run out of gas though.
16. I love Jack's giggles more than any other sound on earth.
17. I have a goal to run a half marathon this summer and hopefully a full this next winter.
18. I have a tumor on my pituitary gland that I have to take medication for that rest of my life to keep from growing bigger.

21. All I will ever want for Christmas is a clean house.
