Here are 20 tidbits about me:
- I am still under 30, but not by much.
- I will be celebrating my 5-year anniversary this June, to my hubby whom I’ve known know for half of my life.
- I was in the United States Marine Corps, but got medically discharged after I developed arthritis.
- In high school I was first in state for women’s light-weight weight lifting.
- I reached Sr. Blue Belt status in Tae Kwon Do before leaving for the Marine Corps.
- I play paintball once a month; I hated it the first two times I played, but loved it after I got over myself. My hubby & I have been playing every month with our group for the past two + years now.
- I love cheese, chocolate milk (especially Promised Land), Claassen pickles and buffalo wings. I have a crazy weakness for deviled eggs.
- I am NOT a fan of chocolate except for about 4 days a month. I also don’t like peanut butter. (I know, I’m weird.)
- I am a huge fan of Tori Amos, Eminem, Nine Inch Nails, Jay-Z, Kate Voelgel and Joy Whitlock. I like so many different types of music it looks like someone with multiple personality disorder owns my iPod.
- Speaking of iPod’s…I am one of those people that can’t live without it. I never thought I would be “that” type of person, but I can’t help it.
- My favorite author is Jodi Picoult and my favorite book by her is My Sisters Keeper. I am a voracious reader and carry a book with me everywhere I go.
- My all time favorite tv show is My So Called Life…there’s nothing like re-living your high-school years, filled with an unbelievable amount of angst.
- I am obsessed with the show Prison Break.
- I wear SPF 50 when I go out, and SPF 70 on my face. (I’m as white as a ghost, and okay with that.)
- I have a 7 lb. miniature long-haired dachshund that gets me out of the house for a walk at least 4 times a day, so I never have an excuse to just sit on the couch and be a bum all day.
- My favorite veggies are artichokes and sweet potatoes. My favorite fruit are strawberries and red grapes.
- We don’t have any kids (yet) because the idea of being pregnant freaks me out to the extreme. (I always picture the scene from Alients when Sigorney Weaver has the dream about giving birth to an alien.) I know, I know, I’m weird.
- I love watching UFC Championships (as long as there’s some actual Fighting – not grappling – going on) and I have a sick interest in watching Wrestling.
- My favorite sport to watch on TV is hockey – which doesn’t happen often since we don’t have cable or basic or anything – we haven’t “had TV” in about 6 years now and we love it. We can watch movies on our laptops, but that’s about it. (It’s a good motivator to not sit around and watch TV all day when you don’t have one!)
- My hair has been dyed red since October – if there was ONE thing I could change about my physical appearance it wouldn’t be my weight…it’d be that I had been born an auburn-colored red-head.
