25 Random Things About Me

So I got tagged by The Metz’s to write 25 random things about me! Here goes:

1. I eat Milk Duds almost every time I go to the movies.

2. If I could go anywhere in the world I would want to go to Dubai.

3. I love playing card games and learning new ones.

4. I’ve been keeping a journal since 2004 in hopes that one day my kids will read it and see what life was like for Jason and me.

5. My husband had a huge afro when I met him—and when I fell in love with him.

6. I could probably count the times I’ve bought things online on one hand. I just don’t trust it.

7. I'm a really good proofreader—and I'm hard-core about it. I once got a flyer in the mail from a man running for city council. I totally corrected his grammar mistakes and misspellings in red ink and sent it back to him with a note saying, "I will not vote for someone who does not proofread his materials."

8. I have never dyed my hair before—I've highlighted it before, but never dyed it.

9. Sometimes it’s hard for me to relax because I constantly think of what needs to be done or what I could be doing besides relaxing.

10. I’m not a good runner. I feel like I run funny.

11. I never have—and I still don’t—completely understand what MP3 players are.

12. I want to someday be as good a cook as my mom.

13. I truly believe it is impossible for me to move up a level on Guitar Hero because I can’t reach the 4th button. I think my hands are physically too small. I don’t understand how 9-year-olds do it!

14. If I try, I can write exactly like my dad. It looks almost identical.

15. I keep my office lights off at work. It’s much nicer to work with the light of lamps and not the overhead lights.

16. I think I could eat Mexican food every day and never get tired of it.

17. I can’t watch scary movies anymore because they freak me out.

18. I have never had a broken bone.

19. A lot of people have thought my sister and I are twins. I usually don’t see it, but every once in awhile when I look at a picture, I can.

20. If I could change one thing about myself, it would probably be that I could sing.

21. God has—and continues to—change my life all the time.

22. I absolutely love Hobby Lobby.

23. I really enjoy going to the movies and seeing the previews before the actual movie starts. I think I could watch previews for hours. I’m always disappointed when they’re over.

24. After I set the alarm on my phone to wake me up in the morning, I have to check it at least 3 to 4 times to make sure I actually set it and have it set for the right time.

25. I have never played real golf—only Putt-Putt.
