20 things you may or may not know about me

1. I'll pick an action movie over a chick flick 99 times out of 100.


2. I recently discovered Hulu and am now totally addicted.


3. I knit and crochet and want to learn tatting next.


4. I donated 17 inches of hair to Locks of Love last Christmastime.


5. For more than 2 weeks in 1998 I ate ONLY oranges.


6. In 2002 I did the same thing, eating ONLY red and yellow peppers.


7. I have published over a dozen poems and am in the process of compiling my works into a book.


8. I majored in English Lit and I have not enjoyed reading very much since.


9. I have over 60 pairs of shoes and wear them all fairly regularly.


10. I have taught social dances including ballroom and latin, and currently still teach swing dancing (not ballroom swing, but the kind that actually "swings").


11. I have been medically diagnosed as having mild OCD.


12. I know how lucky I am to have a job that I love and a boss that I respect and like.


13. I collect journals/journaling books, but must find a perfect matching (in appearance and ink color) before I will write in them.
    
14. I'd rather spend a perfect sunny day cleaning my house than a rainy one - I find it's more cheery and motivating.
    
15. I love the physical act of typing. In high school, I used to copy out of the dictionary because I couldn't think up my own things to type fast enough. I'd love to hire myself out to college students needing papers or anything else transcribed.
    
16. I am not a coffee snob. As much as I enjoy a good Starbucks or local high-quality coffee, I also manage to enjoy a cup of Folgers instant coffee (no, I don't buy it, but I'll drink it if it's there) - It's really more of a nostalgic thing as that's the first "coffee" I tasted than a question of taste/flavor.
    
17. My shoes and purse MUST always match (or coordinate if one is patterned).
    
18. Every single day from my 20th birthday in 2001 until the day before my brother's wedding in November 2006 my toenails were perpetually cherry or candy-apple red.
    
19. I got to see Terry Fator live, 2nd row seats, in March 2009! He is the most incredibly amazing, phenomenally talanted man I have every had the pleasure of seeing live and honor of meeting. Please check out his website - terryfator.com - and GO SEE HIM if you are ever in Las Vegas.
    
20. I cry excessively easily; a sappy song on the radio or Hallmark commercial on TV will get me going. I have yet to watch the ending of The Little Mermaid without sobbing.
