Things You Probably Don't Know About Me

Can't. Stop. Blogging. I should study but I can't, so I made a deal with myself that I'd study this weekend and today I'd wrap some gifts I have to give this weekend (one for a Holiday Party gift exchange, one for my brother, and one for my mom's birthday from my dad, brother and I) and go shopping for the stuff to make rolled finger sandwiches for the Holiday Party tomorrow. (If they turn out cutely I'll post a picture since I'm not really "domestic" and I'll be proud).

Ok so, anyway, since I have a bunch of new readers (ok "a bunch" might be a stretch, but I have about 10 new readers), I decided to make a list of interesting things people probably don't know about me (in case the title didn't explain it).

1. I sleep with a doll I've had since I was 18 months old. Her name is Cyndi (after Cyndi Lauper). Her hair had a chemical reaction with shampoo once, so she has dred locks. She's plastic and used to be one of those dolls that peeded if you gave her water but she was "leaky" so my mom gave her a "hysterectomy".
2. I am a decent piano player. I taught myself how to play this earlier this week. I got the soundtrack to Magnolia after watching it a few weeks ago (yeah I know I'm like 5 years behind the times) and decided to teach myself. Ohh, and I sing too, but I don't in public unless I've been drinking and it's karaoke.
3. My friends and I used to dress up as the Spice Girls. I was Scary Spice (I had short hair at the time, a crimper and leopard pants). We went to see the movie like that and learned the dance to Spice Up Your Life, recorded it and gave it to our male friends. (Yeah, I was a weird kid with weird friends).
4. The reason I had short hair at the time was I had shaved my head the previous year (in 8th grade) in an effort to rebel against my parents or something dumb like that.
5. I have 2 screws in my body.
6. I'm an insomniac.
7. I can fit my fist in my mouth.
8. When I was little I had to wear a brace that held my feet forward since my toes turned inward.
9. I'm a pretty decent golfer.
10. Until age 5 I would throw a fit if my mom wouldn't give me a bottle with apple juice in it when I was going to bed. (Hello Freudian Oral Fixation).
11. I play 2nd base for a "beer league" co-ed softball team in the summer.
12. I had a palatal expander once and braces twice. My orthodontic work cost my parents insane amounts of money, but I think it was worth it and I show my teeth off all the time. I still wear my retainers. I also whiten my teeth. (My mom works for a dentist and I get it free).
13. I was at least 18 when I realized that it was "The Cosby Show" but the family was the Huxtables.
14. The first things I purchased after I turned 18 that required me to be an "adult" were sparklers.
15. I danced for just under 10 years and used to be able to do the splits in all 3 directions.
16. My favorite shot is a tie between a Red Headed Slut and a Dirty Girl Scout. (Hello Googlers).
17. I used to ski but haven't ever since my accident.
18. I give myself a manicure at least once a week. If I have time I give myself a pedicure too.
19. I regularly donate blood.
20. I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.
