1. Sometimes I forget people's names that I should REALLY know...so I avoid calling them by their name EVER.
2. Sometimes I have to pick my nose...blowing it does not always work.
3. I hide cans of diet coke (no...I haven't quit yet)
4. This is the 8th year I've been in school.
5. Sometimes I'll run upstairs to do something...and can't remember for the life of me why I ran up there...
6. What is something you do...that you hate to admit...come on...I shared that sometimes I picked my nose...it's time for you to fess up.

Am I CRAZY?!? Or is it just inherited?!?
It was always inevitible. As soon as we got the last suitcase packed in the car, our coolers full of grape soda, our map in our laps...and all 3 of my sisters and I buckled into our car my mom would yell.."WAIT?!? Did I turn off the iron?" I always thought she was loony for doing that...so here's a list of things I've decided I inherited from her.
1. I check my 3 alarm clocks 3 times before I go to bed.
2. I have to sleep with my door closed just "in case there is a fire"
3. I check to make sure my straightener is off at least three times before I leave every morning.
4. I rub my fingers together when I get nervous.
5. I inevitibly wonder if I turned off my curlers ect, when i go on a long trip..
6. As soon as someone stops on a road trip, I all of a sudden wonder if I really have to go to the bathroom...Usually, I'll sit in the car for a minute declaring in my head I dont'....and then my caution kicks in and I run to the bathroom even though I don't really need to go.
So readers, what do you think? Am I crazy...or is it just inherited...I'd argue that it's inherited...but then again I do check my straightener 3 times before I leave every morning. What crazy things do you do?

A List of REASONS to Use E-Harmony
1. You may actually find someone you get along with great. I did!!
2. Online dating is not just for losers. I used to go on a date with a different guy every weekend...I used to get hit on where ever I went...I just could not seem to find a guy 'worth keeping'..See entry "Several Lines that will Doom You to Singleness" below.
3. There are lots of fruitcakes you can laugh and tell stories about...(keep in mind there are good people on there too!)
4. E-harmony helps match you with people who have the same interests and priorities in life...which is great when you're at a job with the same people all day...and a church where you know all of the guys and would never date them.
5. You can tell people that you met your boyfriend the way 1 out of every 8 couples in America do...Online...:)
6. It allows you and your friends to screen out matches....just with a click of a button.
7. It is entertaining.
8. It makes your family happy. (My parents bought my subscription...it was all their idea)
9. You learn about your own personality through the entire experience.
What do you think of online dating services? I was always opposed to them...but I found the best guy EVER!

How to Make it Through March Madness when Your Boyfriend is a College Basketball Freak
First of all...Joel...you're the best...I just like to make lists and I actually enjoy watching basketball with you :)
1. Tell your boyfriend you'll watch basketball with him if....he rubs your shoulders while your doing it.
2. Discuss the horrible mustaches and ugly haircuts with your sister while you're watching the game.
3. Tell him you'll watch basketball game with him...if he watches a chick flick with you!
4. Watch the game at a sports bar...at least you can do a bunch of people watching while he's glued to the game.
5. Take a little nap...it's the perfect time to catch up on all your sleep...You'll have plenty of time since there's about 4 games on a day :)
6. Analyze the colors of the uniforms....Last night the coloring of the t.v was off, but Holly and I were sure XAVIER was wearing pink uniforms to support breast cancer.
7. Ask a bunch of questions...I'm sure this annoys my boyfriend to death,but at least I'm becoming more aware of the ins and outs of the game.
8. Drink a glass of wine. That will make any event a little more tolerable :)
9. Count the tiles in the ceiling....I always did this when I was bored in church...but I think it would help time pass with basketball too.
10. Decide you're going to enjoy it because it's so important to your significant other.

Why Blog?
1. Apparently blogging helps with depression...hmm...
2. Blogging lets others validate your opinions in writing.
3. Blogging relieves stress.
4. Blogging allows you to see that others actually do think like you do.
5. Blogging adds a tinge of excitement to life...it's cool to find out that someone from Zambia reads your thoughts!
6. Blogging lets long distance friends keep in touch with you.
7. Why do you blog?? Or maybe I should ask "why don't you?"
