25 Things

I shamelessly stole this from MagicHands. :)

25 things you don't know about me

  1. I am terrified of ladybugs.
  2. Books are my crack. No matter how horrible a book is, I will finish it. This has led to some interesting reactions from me.
  3. I am extremely clumsy. My feet are not my friend.
  4. I tend to be very shy and have a hard time interacting with new people. Once I get to know someone though, they can't get me to shut up.
  5. When I was a child I wanted nothing more than to be in the military. I was in JROTC throughout high school and excelled at it, even attending the summer camp program and graduating at the top of my class.
  6. I curse like a man.
  7. When I get really tickled I sometimes make this strange snorting-hiccup laugh. No matter what I cannot do it if I try.
  8. I cannot stand food touching. Please, no.
  9. I secretly want to be a politician.
  10. I "see" music. When I hear music I can "see" the different strands and how they intermingle, often each strand is a different color and they blend into a tapestry of sorts.
  11. I can play most instruments, have been in drum corp and state bands but cannot sing to save my soul.
  12. Bring me to the movies and I will choose the western or shoot 'em up action flick every time. I don't do scary movies and chick flicks make me violent.
  13. My hair is almost to my butt and has at least three different shades in it naturally and it's ridiculously thick.
  14. I only knew my husband for less than ten months when we married, and I was 19.
  15. I don't own a cellphone.
  16. I have the attention span of a gnat. While writing this I have lost my train of thought three times.
  17. I was born on 11/11, but 11 seems to be very unlucky for me.
  18. I am insanely competitive., and love board games.
  19. I have given my family food poisoning. I am that bad of a cook.
  20. I secretly love Spongebob, and when my kiddo's were young I had a crush on the Blue's Clue's guy. (The new one, not the old one.)
  21. I could be that guy with the tin-foil hat. Simply put, the idea of aliens scary the crap out of me.
  22. I talk in my sleep and have been known to sleep walk. My daughter does this too.
  23. I think I have more books in my house than the local library, only problem is I won't share.
  24. People who's homes are too clean make me nervous. Don't they live there?
  25. I can't think of a good ending for this. Edited cause I thought of something- I hate pop music and techno makes me twitch. I prefer male singers over female (Only like two female singers I can think of) and love music that sounds old. Think Ray LaMontagne, Damien Rice, Robert Pattinson (Yeah the last one is that Twilight dude, but wow what a freaking singer!)

I think we're kindred spirits. I'm in the military. Aliens scare the shit out of me. I have mild synestheisa, too, but for words, not music.

Weird.
