100 things you didn't know that you wanted to know about me

So I'm going to give this a try...it's going to be hard...

1. I kinda wish I knew how to do the Charleston.
2. I often wish I was from another country so I could have an awesome accent, especially Australia or England...
3. We just got a DVR and now I wish we had 2
4. I only watch reruns of Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama, Scrubs, Law and Order:SVU and occasionally I watch new episodes of House
5. I wish I didn't watch T.V. so much and read books more
6. I want a bowflex body
7. I am not a very good cook, I tend to add spices so they look pretty which usually causes dinner to be ruined or salty
8. I am graduating in May with my Bachelors degree in Psychology and NO I DO NOT KNOW WHAT I WANT TO DO WITH IT!!!!
9. I am terrified of choosing the wrong career and not realizing it until I'm 45
10. I got lasik done on my eyes about a month ago and it kinda feels like I have contacts in or glasses on still...
11. My vision is 20/15 now :o)
12. I am so good at making excuses that sometimes I don't know if I have a real excuse or if I am just being lazy or procrastinating
13. I really wish I didn't do that and I am going to start working on it tomorrow!
14. I grind my teeth at night and it sometimes wakes up my husband
15. My favorite pair of sunglasses are some that were a "joke" but ended up looking awesome and they were 4 bucks! (Abi, you know the ones)
16. If I could, I would be wrapped up in some sort of snuggly blanket at all times

18. I am terrified of decorating my house because I'm not very good at it
19. I really really really want to get a full body scan
20. I have crazy dreams and I love that I can remember them!
21. I don't tell many people about them because they are that weird
22. I used to have a recurring nightmare when I was really little-like 6 or 7-and I still remember it. I would wake up in the middle of the night and be afraid to go back to sleep because the dream would just keep starting over, all night long.
23. The dream had absolutely no substance to it, it was just sounds and smells and blobs, but for some reason it was really scary.
24. I want to have my child by natural child birth
25. I think I'm too much of a wimp to go through with it

37. I have no ability to parallel park. I mean ZERO ability.
38. I will get out of the car and have someone else do it if it is necessary
39. It is extremely difficult to weed when the ground is just small rocks and not dirt
40. While attempting to weed my rocks, I longed for the garden that I was forced to weed at my old house.
41. I have approximately 3 dollars in dimes in my wallet right now
42. There is a reason for it, but it's not very good I just needed change for a five and all I could get was mostly dimes
43. I needed change for a Diet Coke at work
44. I have a small Diet Coke problem
45. I blame my mother for that
46. I just remembered that my elementary school used to have a machine that sold a large straw-like thing that had 3 or 4 little erasers in it that cost like 35 cents. The erasers would be cute shapes and stuff
47. The first boyfriend I ever had (in 6th grade) and I used to tear up the erasers into smaller chunks and put them in our mouths and spit them out the straws at each other.
48. This was apparently flirting because it was after we started doing this that he asked me to "go out with him"
49. I don't think I ever even kissed him and we "went out" for a year!
50. 6th grade relationships are ridiculous
51. I'm pretty sure I have a tumor in my brain

58. I would really really really like to get a full body scan!
59. I already said that, but I added an exclamation mark
60. I like shoes but have a hard time paying over 20 bucks for a pair
61. Due to #60, most of my shoes completely tear up my feet
62. I have been on acutane 3 times
63. I never thought it would happen, but I get compliments on my skin all the time. It is weird to hear that

73. I really dislike Pepsi
74. My husband and I are going to get two Bichon Frise puppies in about 9 weeks

84. I love bread! I like to get a soft piece of white bread and take out the middle and squish it into a ball and eat it
85. I swear to you, it tastes different like that!
86. This list has taken me over a week to complete
87. I really want to travel around the world, specifically: Germany, Sweden, Prague, Italy, France, Ireland, England, Spain, Machu Pichu and Fiji!
88. I have been snowboarding twice, it is really hard and I am not good at it.
89. Last time I went snowboarding, on my honeymoon, we got me the wrong board and I snowboarded the whole time goofy footed instead of the normal way which I should have been.
90. My legs were super sore after that
91. I had a cyst surgically removed on the back of my neck when I was like 16, they thought it might be on my lymph node but it wasn't
92. I have been put to sleep 4 times. 3 times for arthroscopic knee surgery and 1 time for the cyst thing
93. My knees still hurt me for many years after my surgeries
94. My knees only occasionally hurt now
95. I have had a tetnis shot when I fell down face first when I was rollerblading
96. I only recently found out from my sister that I had actually been knocked unconscious for a moment in that accident
97. I miss my old house that I lived in for some 18 years, I sometimes dream about it and about the people living though I never met them. I am often coming back into my house not being able to let them live there.
98. I am glad I moved to Arizona, mainly because I met my husband but I miss my sisters and wish I could see them and their families more, but I guess that is what happens when everyone grows up and has families of their own!
99. I am absolutely terrified of having children because I am afraid they will have my mental and physical problems.
100. I am also excited to have children in a few years (the dogs are training) and am sure that with the help of Chris we will have perfectly healthy and happy children.

#4 you need to get out more. #16 me too. #24 I really hope you are able to do that, and also don't feel bad about yourself if it doesn't work out that way
#51-59 it's not a tumor
#95-96 I don't remember this?
#99 what physical? they are all mental! haha ;-)
#100 you will be a good mom! As long as you do what you know how to do and love your kids - you will be the best mom you can.

95-96 happened in Seattle when we were visiting the Hinckley's, we stopped on the way home at the "Norther Exposure" cafe and got our picture taken in front of it because Dad is a dork! Remember?
