My friend Jennie tagged me in her blog to come up with 50 random things about myself. 50 is a lot! I think she secretly knows I'm easily distracted at work these days and needed something to do during those distractions... ;) So here goes...
1. I've been coloring my hair faithfully since I was 23. I'm not entirely certain what my natural color is anymore
2. I never go more than 6 weeks between hair cut/coloring
3. I still have dreams to this day that I didn't complete a college course and couldn't graduate
4. I never want to move out of the state of Colorado
5. I love Arizona in the month of March. Starting next year it will become a yearly trip for us for some spring training baseball and orange blossoms and wildflowers
6. I'm a very private person. Only few people know the inner workings of my head. And they probably wish they didn't know it ;)
7. I tend to scowl without knowing it and often get asked if I'm okay or to smile by strangers. I hate that. Its just my deep in thought face.
8. I moved to Boston at the start of 2004 and worked for 6 months looking for parasites in peoples poop. It had to be my worst job ever. Hence why I no longer work at a laboratory.
9. I never enjoyed babysitting growing up
10. I wanted to be an architect when I was younger
11. I also wanted to be a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader
12. I take a nap probably 4 out of 7 days
13. During most of my college days I drove a Honda Civic Wagon.
14. I ditched school a lot during my senior year of high school and still managed to graduate number 22 in my class of 730.
15. I'm pretty sure Arizona has one of the worst school systems. When I got to college I struggled a lot to keep up.
16. I was a munchkin in the Wizard of Oz play when I was in 1st grade.
17. I threw up in the water while scuba diving. I don't suggest doing that.
18. I've climbed to the crown of the Statue of Liberty
19. I'm looking forward to not working full-time anymore (I'm pretty sure this isn't a random thing. EVERYONE knows this)
20. I am not a shopper. I love saving money
21. I love going to the movies
22. I love going out with my girlfriends
23. I love it when Eric cooks dinner which happens to be most nights when we do cook at home
24. Eric introduced me to the world of fine dining. Eating out has never been the same
25. I really want to go to as many baseball games as we did last summer and am hoping this baby cooperates
26. I've always been a very bad Christmas present buyer/giver.
27. I love the mountains
28. I have so many started yet unfinished craft projects including the crib set for this baby
29. Its really hard for me to go a solid day without a Diet Coke.
30. I tend to be sarcastic and often offend people without realizing it. Not my favorite trait.
31. My fingernails grow very well
32. My favorite type of vacation is sitting on the beach soaking up sun and reading a book
33. I'm a sleep monkey
34. I want to have a garden one day
35. I am not a good cook. I'm pretty much not a cook at all.
36. My dream house would be right on a lake
37. Eric and I have been a one car family for a solid year now and are managing fine
38. I started snoring during this pregnancy
39. It drives me crazy when Eric leaves the faucet running while he brushes his teeth
40. It drives Eric crazy when he is in the bathroom getting ready and I come in to get ready
41. I love sunkist fruit snacks
42. We have 4 boxes of girl scout cookies in our freezer
43. In all the years I lived in the desert, I only had one scorpion in my house. (at least that I was aware of)
44. I have regrets and fears that are too personal to share (see #6 above)
45. I'm ready for Spring
46. I record and watch 19 Kids and Counting
47. I watch House Hunters almost every day
48. I wish I were brave enough to do a natural childbirth. I'm not
49. I bought tickets for Les Miserables in December last year for the show in September this year
50. I can easily waste time :)

And you only have 18 days left in this pregnancy?! Yay! I loved this list. I learned a lot about you. I do want to know what a sleep monkey is though. I haven't ever heard that term. I suppose now it is my turn.
Love it, good job. It only makes we want to know even more of your inner workings. And I think one of my favorites was that you bought tickets to Les Mis already. I have procrastinated and not yet chosen where I want us to sit. But I am such a firm advocate that it is the best show and everyone should see it.
I LOVE the International version House Hunters. Are you like me and disappointed when they don't choose the same house I would of?
how can you do a list like this and not make ANY mention of the gas problem?
how?
Ah yes...#1 on your list is the reason that Weezy can't tell you and Andrea apart! And, I have great memories of #14.
I love the 50 things about people. I think everyone should do it!
Loved reading this list. I too watch Househunters. And I can't stand it when people come in and bother me when I am getting ready so I can relate to Eric on that one. (Not that you were bothering him.) :)
Totally loved this post!!! So fun!
I was just going to post something but Laurel already mentioned it. THANKS Laurel. I am so in agreement with you.
I like this! I learned all kinds of fun things about you. I'm going to do this... SOOOOO thinking about you these days, hoping all is well and you are in good spirits.
p.s. what Ty and Laurel said.
