12 Things You Don't Know About Me (and don't necessarily want to)
1. I hate raisins. The remind me of big, fat black ants and it grosses me out to bite into one.
2. When I sleep I cover my ear with my hair so spiders won't crawl inside.
3. If I'm shopping and I find something (shirt, notebook, etc.) that I absolutely love but it comes in lots of colors, I won't be able to decide and I won't buy it at all.
4. When I was 22 I drank too much a guy's house and while he was in the shower, I held his dirty dishes up in the air while I threw up in his kitchen sink. (He never knew. Although when he offered me shrimp cocktail and waved it in front of my face a few minutes later, I threw up all over his couch).
5. I cry at almost every episode of American Idol because of the sob stories and also, I'm happy they're trying so hard to achieve their dream.
6. I once filled out tons of mail-in-order forms from magazines and had them sent to someone's house who deserved so much more than that.
7. I've made dinner and given myself food poisoning. More than once.
8. After getting out of an abusive relationship as a teen, I pushed my next boyfriend verbally to see if he'd get abusive. He threw a handfull of plant dirt at me and walked out. It still makes me laugh. (He was far from abusive).
9. When I was six I got so mad at my best friend that I grabbed her arm and bit her as hard as I could. Then I went and hid under my bed.
10. I've been known to tell Joey the parks are closed because it's a special holiday when I don't feel like standing around the playground with "the mommies."
11. Sometimes when Mike watches Joey for an hour so I can write, I waste the time on Facebook instead. (It's not my fault it's so addicting!)
12. When we buy Chex Party Mix I eat all the fun stuff and leave the Chex for Mike. He gets mad every time.
Please steal this idea so I can read embarrassing things about you:)

Something most don't know about me. Something I don't even want to know about me.
Hm, and what else. I'm not at all afraid of spiders, but I really don't like anything that slithers (worms, snakes, CENTIPEDES).
And Judith, that is seriously the grossest thing I've ever heard. I'm going to start sleeping with my hands over my ears too.
#4 & #7 ( food poisoning - how'd you do that?) is hilarious. Remind me not to eat anything you cook. LOL just joking.
I did made a similar post just a few days ago (Feb.12) - "Top Ten Non-Writing Activities"...Personally, as much as I love reading all of these writing blogs, I absolutely love the personal edge that people offer within their blogs.
(Btw, I'm still itchy...)
Also, we can share Chex Mex anytime you want! The chex are my FAVORITE PART!!!
Erin, I think I got the idea from you and put a link back to your post:)
Thanks Sara, we sound like a good munchies match:)
I'm still chuckling about holding up the dirty dishes to barf. LOL!!!
Kelly, I didn't even like saving that spider pic to my computer!
Don't tell anyone this, but I once stood in for a main character in a TV show and had to wear her (long) dress. I went to the toilet in a hurry, and only realised after the deed was done, that I'd urinated on the back of the dress by accident. I washed it off and kept my mouth shut. I hope she didn't smell it when she came back to retrieve her part and her dress.
We were out of town last week. I teared up when the blonde girl from TN didn't make it. :( I was really hoping for good things for her.
I love the list. Especially the drinking at a guy's house and throwing up in the sink. I have SO done that. LOL And at least you were kind enough to hold the dishes up.
