In my last post I confessed to being a germaphobe, so I figured I'd confess some more in this one but make it a little fun.
In no particular order, here are 20 completely random facts about me that I'm sure will come in handy one day when I'm famous....or if you ever need to blackmail me.
1. I'm from a big, fat, Italian family and I have the crooked pinky fingers to prove that genetics cross oceans and centuries to unite related strangers living in different lands.
2. Speaking of big, fat, Italian family, I honestly didn't know there were skinny old people until I was a teenager. I seriously just thought you hit forty and doubled overnight...kinda like proofing dough. (Sorry to all my relatives & family friends. I love y'all, I really do.)
3. My favorite flavor anything is orange.
4. I like our dog, but I love our cats. (Please don't tell the dog that.)
5. Speaking of cats, I actually gave one of our cats a concussion. With a 1 lb tub of Desitin. (It was a COMPLETELY freak accident, I promise.)
6.If you give me an easy problem I'll stumble on it, but if you give me an impossible conundrum I'll solve it in 30 seconds flat.
7. I don't need a genetics doctorate, a state-of-the-art lab, or $50 billion in funding to prove humans can be cloned. I've already done it. Twice.
8. I am insanely proud of both my hometown (NOLA) and my football team (The 2009 Superbowl Champion New Orleans Saints).
9. I am the queen of procrastinating.
10. I am TERRIBLE at keeping in touch. And calling. And writing. And answering e-mail. Did I forget anything?
11. But I am great at organizing. Go figure.
12. I can find ANYTHING. No matter how long it's been missing or where we are. I have lost item radar. My specialties are remotes and keys.
13. I have met my guardian angel twice. Once when I was almost pulverized by a Lucky Dog cart during Mardi Gras. (Yes, you read that right.)
14. Which makes this one obvious: I believe in ghosts. And angels. And demons. All that fun stuff.
15. My mom and I have ESP. We can read each others' minds and know when things are wrong in the family or if one of us needs something, etc. We freak people out a lot.
16. My husband and I have ESP too. But not like my mom and I. I can tell if something's wrong and I know what he'd choose if he has to pick something, but this is better. Whenever he's deployed I can tell you exactly to the instant when he uses his debit card/credit card. No. Seriously. I think he feels guilty or something because I always tell him not to spend a lot of money but he does anyway and it translates to me as worry, so I pick it up. That's my theory anyway. I can actually feel him, pull up the checking account online and watch the charge pop up. It's THAT accurate.
17. I am the person you want to have around in an emergency. If you've got a situation, I guarantee I've got a contingency plan for it. Call it a zombie plan on crack.
18. I let my kids eat off the floor. What the hell...it's good for their immune systems and they're going to do it anyway.
19. I have the most disgusting story EVER regarding what happened when our dog ate virtually an entire roll of paper towels. E-V-E-R. Okay, maybe not an entire roll, but a good 15 paper towels. Think wipe dispenser. Out of his rear end. I guess that means I really do love him. (Dumb dog.)
20. Last but not least, I am a mono-eater. I find something I loooooove and have it pretty much every day until I get sick of it. And then I never eat it again. Like when I ate an english muffin with peanut butter and sliced bananas for breakfast every day for almost a year. And can't stand the thought of them now.
So what are your dirty (or funny) little secrets??
