Today is day 2:
(which should have been posted many, MANY days ago...oh well!)
51. My step-dad made sure I could change a tire, do my own oil-change, shoot a gun and had a complete tool set. Women in my family are self-sufficient.
52. I have worked full-time (and gone to school) every year since I was 15. This summer, will be the first time I am doing neither. I am excited and terrified.
53. I think any candy that has a purple flavor is gross. They usually taste the Robitussin.
54. I have been a baseball fan as long as I can remember. There is something so pure, so patriotic about the sport and I feel like a little kid every time I walk into a ball park.
55. Out of all the beautiful things in my grandmother's house, the thing I love the most is the grandfather clock - it's so not my style, but I have so many
56. I met my husband 6 years ago. At the time I didn't think he was at all my type. I was wrong.
57. I have been told I look like Laura Prepon (from That 70's Show)
Don't believe me?
58. I have never seen a single Star Wars movie
59. I wish I was born in the 50's for the fashion, cars and music but NOT for the suppression of women.
60. I took German in high school so I could feel closer to my mother, who grew up there.
61. I had the sex talk with my mother when I was 5 after asking my mom where babies came from. She provided me with a book to read and I was able to ask whatever I needed.
62. If you ever wanted to "treat" me a Diet Dr. Pepper and a bag of Swedish Fish would do the trick
63. I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to conceive. My mother struggle with miscarriages and other concerns and I am afraid of the same.
64. When I was 18, I hustled pool tables with a girl friend of mine. We could make $100 or more in a few hours.
65. I am not a morning person at all. With maturity (and a LOT of coffee) I am working on it.
66. I love baseball. Really LOVE baseball.
67. In college, I owned two Beta fish, which we named Sex and Candy.
68. Growing up, I had three posters on my wall: a red Chevy Corvette Convertible, a photo of Kirby Puckett from the 1991 World Series season, and Jonathan Taylor Thomas
69. Apparently I am sleep deprived (and immature) because all I can think about is that this is number 69. Teehee.
70. I lived in 13 houses before I reached high school.
71. Since I graduated high school, I've lived in 7.
72. I believe all this moving around has prepared me for the frequent moving in Army-life
73. I love the noise a pair of heels makes while walking down a hall-way. To me, that click-click is the sound of success.
74. I always wished I had a natural athletic or musical ability. I am sub-par at both.
75. I want three kids, but would settle for two really awesome ones!
76. I wouldn't mind having 4 either (but don't tell Al - he'll probably have a heart attack!)
77. I was published in a national journal at 22.
78. I also had a poem published in a small-town newspaper at 12.
79. I am equally proud of both publications.
80. I had a 6th grade reading level in Kindergarten. I used to "sneak" Boxcar Children chapter books and a flashlight into my bed at night and read under my pillow.
81. I am a good driver, but everyone I know thinks I am a terrible
82. Perhaps this is because I had to take my drivers test 3 times
83. I shower every other day because it keeps my skin and hair soft and healthy
84. One of the biggest reasons I am looking forward to being a mom is to see 4 generations on my side of the family.
85. I am really craving mint chocolate chip ice cream
86. I played the sliding trombone in 4th and 5th grade
87. In high school I lettered in gymnastics and academics. I could never afford the buy the letter jacket.
88. I have so many places I want to travel (see here for just the beginning) 89. I owned over 100 barbies growing up
90. I've never thought of being anything other than an attorney. I will be graduating next year, into a (very) down legal market and I have no plan B. I'm a little terrified.
91. Being a big sister is one of my favorite "jobs"
92. I am completely lost when I have to cook a meal without using a microwave
94. Growing up, my mom always took long bubble baths. I never understood it until I was older and appreciated the relaxing alone time.
95. I want to someday own a home and host my family around the holidays
96. I have never been to Disney World. I am waiting to have kids so I have an excuse to do so.
97. I have never considered plastic surgery other then a post-kids breast reduction
98. I have had one surgery to correct a deviated septum and I had my wisdom teeth out. I've never broken any bones, but I have been in two casts.
99. I have watched three entire TV shows from beginning to end to put off studying for finals
100. Coming up with 100 things about myself was really, really hard and it took procrastination from my homework to stop procrastinating this post!
