100 Things About Me

1. I was born at home by a doctor
2. I was more than a month old before I had a name. I was supposed to be a boy...my parents hadn't quite prepared for having another girl.

5. I have one sister.
6. I love cooking.
7. Most nights I am too lazy to cook and I eat crackers and brie for dinner.

9. I hate cleaning....I mean despise cleaning! I have no shame in admitting that, if/when I have the money, I will never clean my house again.
10. It's not unusual for me to leave dishes sitting in my sink for 4 or more days. (Benefit of living by myself?). Yet another reason why I need someone to clean my house.

12. I have a senseless fear of asking people I like out.
13. However I am ridiculously confidant with people I have no interest in.
14. I left a pile of random shit (papers, pictures, a screwdriver, a flashlight, some flashcards, some removable bra straps) in a pile in the corner of my bedroom for more than 8 months after I moved into my condo. Guess I just never got around to picking it up.
15. Kenny Chesney is my all time celebrity crush. I would marry him or become his slave, all he has to do is ask.

42. I've never smoked a cigarette.
43. I have smoked other possibly not so legal herbs.
44. That is the only illegal substance I have ever tried.

73. I was born in Tahoe City, CA. I lived there until I was 4.
74. We moved to Reno and I have lived there since then.
75. We moved because I wouldn't talk to my teachers. Seriously, when they tried to put me in whatever grade it is that you are in when you are 4, I wouldn't talk to the teachers. They thought I had some mental retardation. My parents didn't believe then (probably a good call since I graduated high school with a 3.7 GPA).

85. Or modern chick lit.
86. My favorite book is Rain of Gold.
87. I have never been arrested.
88. I am running out of things to say about myself. You wouldn't think it would be that hard to come up with 100 things to say about yourself, would you?
89. I prefer sleeping on the right side of the bed.
90. I like snowshoeing.
91. But need to get back in shape before the snow falls because...yeah, I am so out of shape.
92. I love the Big Sur area of California.
93. I haven't had an official boyfriend since high school.
94. I honestly believe that anybody can do anything that they want to do.
95. I honestly DO NOT UNDERSTAND the whole issue of not using a name for your baby because someone that you know just used the name or your cousins second brother twice removed used a version of the name or whatever. It's f-ing kid, name it whatever the hell you want to.
96. I love soda. Or fizzy water...it's the carbonation.
97. I have never voted in an election. I'm not even registered to vote.

Ahhh, only 2 more...what to say, what to say...

99. I've never been in love.
100. And...I like to have huge cuts or bruises because it makes me feel cool. It makes me feel like I have an interesting life (like I am doing extreme things that can cause me harm). I remember one time I got a huge bruise on my leg from kayaking and I milked it forever...I wore clothes that revealed it just in hopes of people asking my how I got it.
