random little bits about me. because i felt like it.

-sometimes those mastercard 'priceless' commercials get me all weepy

-last night i drove home with a diet pepsi can on the back of my car. the entire way. i have no idea how it got there and didnt know until D came home and brought it in with him, asking why it was there. i probably would have driven around all day today with it there too if he hadnt seen it. im ridiculously capable of things like this.

-my dream is to someday work for national geographic

-im a really quiet person. but sometimes when i laugh. its really loud. it always takes people by surprise. but they always wind up laughing along with me too.

-when it comes to certain things, i annoy easily

-chocolate is my weakness

-i appreciate being told the truth. even when it hurts.

-being barefoot is one of my favorite things ever

-this is me

-i adore my job

-i think corduroy is the most wonderfully luscious fabric ever

-the wild thornberrys is one of my favorite television shows. my 6 year old neice gets a really big kick out of that. sometimes we watch it together.

-my respect is easily won by people who are honest

-she is my idol

-im not squeamish at all. in fact, ive been told on many occassions im the least squeamish girl ever. blood doesnt gross me out. neither do bugs, snakes or spiders.

-in seventh grade i protested having to dissect a frog

-raw snow peas and raw green beans are favorite snacks of mine

-im proud to work for the media

-i get nightmares when i watch scary movies

-i have a dream of living in the middle of nowhere on a huge farm and starting my own animal shelter, saving all the animals on death row in every shelter in the country

-i also love the city and dream of moving back

-the typical american dream is my idea of hell

-i tend to be of the extreme sort

-i get a rush from learning new things

-im not a girly girl. im just not. i dont like having to fuss with my hair, face and clothes. that reminds me of a quote i know - 'i dont wear anything i cant wipe my hands on'

-i like being able to walk wherever i have to go. i cant do that where i live now. thats the biggest thing i dont like about where i live.

-im fierce, independent, open minded, honest and opinionated.
