25 Things- January 27, 2009

Everyone remembers these silly Facebook games, right?  Well here were my really interesting (hardly) 25 things about me:

Rules:
Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.

1. I love sushi but hate pickled ginger. Gross!

2. I love birds. Any kind. But I am having a hard time reconciling that not all birds want to sit on my shoulder and sing me pretty songs like my bird does. I get bit a lot :P

3. I really really dislike math. I am not convinced that learning how to factor a poly-nomial will EVER help me get a job at the zoo. Look, I probably just spelled poly-nomial wrong... that's how much I care.

4. I brush my teeth like 4 times a day. People with nasty teeth freak me out. I might start carrying around a bag of toothbrushes and hand them out to strangers.

5. I am Facebook challanged. For real... it took me like 10 minutes to figure out how to post this once I actually realized that I had been tagged in Sheileen's. I kinda like Myspace better. Feel free to tar and feather me now.

6. It is taking a lot longer then I thought to come up with 25 things about me. And I am only on #6. I'm gonna be here awhile.

7. I am a bit compulsive when it comes to being tidy. Piles of papers really bug me. It might be ok if it were an extremely neat pile... but probably not. Everything has it's place and should be in that place if not being utilized.

8. Going to the gym is the bane of my existence. But I hate being chubby, so I keep going.

9. I don't want children. You can lecture me about how I will change my mind, but I won't. Really. I have not one stinking maternal bone in my body. I love my neices and nephews, but at the end of the day I am sooooo glad that they go home with someone else. So leave me ALONE.

10. I am really unhappy about all the horror movies coming out that are remakes of old ones. I happen to think that 'Last House on the Left" was pretty brilliant the first time around. Why screw up a good thing? Cause you know they are gonna screw it up. Just like they did with "Halloween".

11. On that note, I also don't like all the movies they are putting out that are remakes of Japanese or Korean films. Have you seen the Korean version of "Shutter" WAY scarier than the crappy one they released here. Are we really so lazy that we can't read some subtitles??

12. Wombats are my favorite animal. I dare you to show me something cuter than a wombat

13. I love foreign films. This could play a large part in my reasoning behind #11 :P Some of my favs: "City of Lost Children" "Pan's Labyrinth" "Devils Backbone" "Old Boy". I watched "Fat Girl"... I can't decide if I like it. Definitely disturbing... possibly brilliant. Jury is still out on that one.

14. There are a ton of movies in my Netflix que. I don't think I will ever reach the bottom (or at least what the bottom is now). I don't even remember what half of them are about.

15. I'm pretty sure that Mark Whalberg has had some speech coaching. I was watching "Fear" on TV the other night and he was hard to listen to. He had like a lisp or something.... couldn't hear his R's. Nothing says scary like a speech impediment. But then I watched "Max Payne" (TERRIBLE btw) and he talks totally different.

16. I'm eating fried zuchini right now. Mmmmmmm

17. I love me some nintendo. I can play mario games for hours. I got the new mario kart for wii for my birthday.... now i just need a wii.

18. Haunted Houses scare the bejesus out of me! Especially if there is a chance that someone could actually touch me. Oh Hell no!

19. I am very good at getting what I want. So good in fact that you may not even realize that you are bending to my will. It's sort of like the jedi mind-trick.

20. I can be extremely anti-social. There isn't much that sounds better to me than staying in and putting my jammies on. Unless of course you want to come over and hang out in your jammies too.

21. I tried wearing contacts for awhile, but they really hurt my eyeballs. It felt like I had gravel in my eyes by the time the day was over. So I stick with my trusty glasses. I look like a nerd, so what?

22. It is impossible for me to be on a diet. If I see cheesecake I will eat it. Plain and simple. This is why I just keep plugging along at the gym.

23. I love to dance! And I don't really care who is watching. I am that girl at the club that hears some lame ass old school hip hop, shouts "That's my jam!" and runs out to the dance floor to shake her money maker even though everyone else just left :P

24. I do my own taxes every year. This is easy for me because I have no children, I dont own a home or a business and I make squat. Yay for Turbo Tax!

25. Holy Moly! It's the end. Ummm... one more thing...... I am super duper sarcastic. Having said that, you should take almost all of these "things" seriously.
