10 Random Facts

Is it a bad sign when you have blogger's block ON A MONDAY???? Probably.

So I'm doing a 10 random facts post...which will probably make you roll your eyes at me...a lot...but that's okay!! Here you go!

1. When I was a kid, Mom and I used to play board games together but I had such a competitive streak that I would throw a total, royal, ugly fit if I lost. She finally told me she wouldn't play games with me anymore if I couldn't learn to be a good loser. Boy if she could only see me now at game night! I only know how to be a good loser! HA!

2. In honor of the Olympics, I'll tell you (Phats, you just zip it!!) that in the winter Olympics back in 96, I had a complete and utter crush on Dan Jansen and the highlight of my day (okay - YEAR) was getting a postcard from him. (Phats, I SAID zip it!!)

3. In 3rd grade, I had a guinea pig for a while. This makes me laugh now, given that I'm scared of anything rodent-y. (Feel free to use that word. Rodent-y.)

4. The reason I got into rubber stamping (back in the day) was because literally ALL my friends were either singers or artists and I had no verifiable talent. I could, however, stamp!! Flawed logic, but still how I operated.

5. I am apparently actually immune to coffee...but I need it. If I don't have it in the morning, I  cannot wake up....but if I drink it at night I can fall right over and go to sleep after drinking it...HENCE my belief that it is all in my head. (But it's significant there.)

6. I ADORE the new mocha chip frappes at McDonald's. Have you had one yet? GO. Stop reading right now and GO get one!

7. Though I wasn't allowed to watch a ton of TV growing up, one show I never missed was Alf.

8. When I graduated from college, I got a cat and named her Chloe. Turned out she was a boy. Should have taken anatomy!!

9. I like to watch TV with the captions turned on. I hear better. (No, really!)

10. I once had to call my dad to come to the house where I was babysitting because the kid had gotten sick and in changing her diaper, I used too many wipes and plugged up the toilet. (woops!!)

There you go! And the only good it will ever do you is if it becomes a Jeopardy category!!!!
