The Versatile Blogger Award

I'm quite honored to receive an award. I have no idea what this award means except perhaps I'm random? I like being random in a non-weird sort of way. Most of my Mobile Uploads and Wall Photos on Facebook are something funny that I saw when I was out and about. Even my status messages are a bit random. I've long thought about writing a blog about the different types of Facebookers there are out there. I started it, but somehow it didn't come out as funny as I imagined in my head... But I digress. Apparently I'm supposed to write 7 interesting things about myself. 

1. Opening canned biscuits scares the pants off of me. There is always that POP and you never know when it's coming. Sometimes it happens right when you tear off the paper. Sometimes it holds on, making you push a spoon into the crack to make it pop--and I do so with my eyes winced, turned away from the action. I always scream.  

2. When I go to sleep at night, I start out lying on my left side. During this position, I take the time to reflect on my day, my dreams, goals, stuff that makes me happy, etc. I think thinking of happy things before you go to sleep has a big effect on the sleep you get. I always sleep great when I do this. When negative emotions have overcome me, I haven't been able to sleep as well. But when I'm REALLY serious about sleeping, I roll over onto my back and there I pretty much stay for the remainder of the night. If I get up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I will typically climb back into bed and fall asleep on my left side. When I was little, I was a very restless sleeper. Sometimes I'd wake up with my head down where my feet would be. Or if I'd slept in my parents' bed, my feet would be all over their faces. (On a side note, the person in the attached picture looks identical to one of my friends...I'll have to ask him about this.)

3. I have a habit of blurting out whatever comes into my mind without thinking how it sounds...and sometimes I say it a little too loudly. For example, when talking to co-workers about a great place to get a steak I said: "At that restaurant, there is this taaaaaaaallll black guy and boy does he know just how I like it!" Or upon seeing it was starting to rain and color the sidewalk, I blurt out: "Oh look, there are sprinkles on the floor!"











4. I'm not your typical girl. I love cool cars, rock & roll, horror movies, sports (mostly baseball & hockey), my nails are not fake, I don't go crazy over babies or cats, floral prints are ugly, I rarely cry, I hate lipstick, and I don't get most women's issues. I also have 5 tattoos and have plans for more.

5. I can tell a pregnant woman what the sex of her baby is by asking ONE crucial question. I've never been wrong yet! Unfortunately it's an extremely personal question so I only ask whenever I'm very close friends with the couple.







6. I have sensory nerve damage in my left thigh from routine painkiller shots after they put a plate and screws in my right ankle. Parts of my thigh are extra sensitive while other parts are numb. Sometimes it tingles painfully and I have to bang it into submission. I get strange looks when I do this...

7. I have a song running through my head on an almost continual basis. Drives me nutters. There are some songs that I have to turn off immediately or else they will get stuck up in there for days and cause me to check myself into the nearest mental institution.
