100 Things About Me [51-75]

| | Comments (5)
  1. I am a workaholic. I answer work-related emails from customers on the weekend even
  2. I have a set of window stickees from the 1960's that mom gave me when I moved out. Both the Halloween set and the Easter set. They're my most prized decorations
  3. I, like my entire family, am obsessed with small knick-knacks
  4. I prefer writing in pens instead of pencils, even if I think I'll be making mistakes or need to revise things
  5. I enjoy thunderstorms as much as I enjoy snowstorms -- which is a lot
  6. The thing that scares me most professionaly is getting a dead-end job that I hate, but can't leave (for whatever reason). For example, I would hate to become a web designer
  7. The thing that scares me most personally is not finding someone to spend the rest of my life with
  8. I've seen the Wizard of Oz 2 (Return to Oz) and I think it's a great movie that everyone should see at some point in their life
  9. I used to swear up and down that I'd never get a cell phone. Now it's the only phone I have (no land line)
  10. I used to drink as much as a 2-liter of pop every day. Now I don't drink pop unless it is rootbeer
  11. I was in Adam's wedding as an usher -- it's the only wedding I've ever been in
  12. I can't dance. Just ask anyone who's ever been bowling with me
  13. I have wanted to be a teacher, a writer, a programmer, a farmer, a construction worker, a firefighter and a therapist at different points of my life.
  14. I don't understand any of the life sciences except physics. I can't do biology or chemistry to save my ass
  15. My favorite painter is Van Gogh or Escher, depending on the day
  16. Lilacs are the prettiest smelling flower, lady's slippers are the prettiest looking, and honeysuckel are the best tasting
  17. I still claim Missy The Great is my soulmate, even though we don't get to talk as often as we used to
  18. I've met some of the greatest people online. Elissa, Jake, Mike, Missy, Nikki, Lori, Dana, the list goes on. I've been lucky in that I really have never been burned by anyone I met online
  19. I knew absolutely nothing about the company I currently work for when I first applied. I was carpet bombing the world with my resume and just happened to get hired here first
  20. I went on a date that lasted 12 minutes once
  21. I think Super Mario 3 was the best of the entire series (including stuff they put out on SNES, N64 and GameCube)
  22. I never read books until my mom started paying me to read them back in about 6th grade. Now I can't put them down and read all the time
  23. I think orange and yellow are the two worst colors ever for a vehicle
  24. I don't remember much of anything before about 8th grade
  25. I have hacked hardware solutions using 9v batteries, DB9 connectors and some wire. And I enjoyed it!

Lol, HTML is a pain like that, but I don't want to turn off processing since that messes up more stuff. Maybe a preview button?
