1) I
will be celebrating my 20th wedding anniversary this December.
2) I
am dressing up as a sexy witch for Halloween.
3) It
makes me sad when people say kids are too old to dress up for Halloween. I don’t
think anyone should ever feel too old to dress up. It’s fun and a little costuming
is good for the soul no matter how old you get.
4) My
most consistent goal over my lifetime has probably been to become more athletic
than I am.
5) When
I was a kid I had a pet pig named Molly and a lamb named Sally. They both hung
out with the family dogs. The lamb even chased cars.
6) I
had half my thyroid removed when I was 24 years old. I find it weird that more
people don’t ask about the scar.
7) The
computer I am writing this on is 7 years old. When I bought it, I swore I
wouldn’t replace it until I had finished a novel.
8) When
my kids grow up and leave home, I think I will dispose of my house and live in
an RV for the rest of my life… assuming I can get the hubby to agree to my
plan.
9) I
still think that one day I might like to become a park ranger.
10) I consider myself
a creative person who is good with numbers too. I love me a good spread sheet
and I get a kick out of charts and graphs.
11) Sometimes I do
not know what I am thinking until I write it down.
12) I am trying very
hard to not repeat the randomness I’ve written when I’ve done this in the past.
I hope you are learning a whole new set of random facts about me.
13) I prefer eating
local foods and organic foods, but I will not apologize for any shopping I do
at Wal-Mart or other grocery settings. You make choices and you do your best to
make ends meet. Enough said.
14) I suppose I’ve
always been a believer in psychic abilities, but have been greatly skeptical
when I come across people who claim to have them.
15) I recently met a
psychic who told me, among other things, that I had a very long life ahead of me.
Of the things we talked about, it is this piece of information that I have
thought most about and I think, in some odd way, I am greatly relieved.
16) I asked my dad
for a horse for my fourteenth birthday. I named her Pegasus.
17) I love to French braid
hair. When I was a kid, I was always braiding hair. As an adult, I’m not as
comfortable asking, but whenever I see long and lovely hair I still want to
braid it.
18) I recently
discovered a simple question that has helped me get through personal battles regarding
motivation and focus. It is, “What would the person I am in my head do?”
19) The older I get,
the more willing I am to write people off as “not worth my time and energy.”
Sometimes I worry that this speaks of a pessimism about the world I did not
wish to develop. Mostly I think it has freed me up to remain optimistic about
the world as I want it to be.
20) I miss slumber
parties. Why don’t grown-ups have slumber parties?
21) I wore my black
suit on Thursday and it felt good to be in a suit. I should probably take the
time to dress up more often.
22) I am a cat
person, but somehow I’ve ended up with two dogs.
23) I love the moon.
Sometimes I step outside late at night just to see what the moon is doing up
there in the sky.
24) I know exactly
how I am going to vote on Tuesday – I know every person, and my answer to every
question on the ballet.
25) I am the only
person left awake in my house tonight.
