I was looking over past facebook notes and found some stuff I did that I liked. I thought I'd just post them here since I have nothing important to say and all of it is still true. My life is sort of stagnant in a good way, so I have nothing new to write about...

25 Random Things
1. I feel naked if my toenails aren’t painted.
2. I’m deathly afraid 3 things: cockroaches (especially B-52’s), the dentist, and live fish (I won’t touch them).
3. I’ve never been good at swimming. I get ear infections easily, so that’s my excuse.
4. I was a vegetarian for 4 years. A piece of fried chicken in the refrigerator was my downfall.
5. My favorite daily mommy moment is when my child wakes up in the morning and I greet him with the phrase “good morning sunshine” or “wakey, wakey, eggs n bakey.” My second favorite daily mommy moment is when I put him to bed.
6. When I was little, I wanted to be a garbage man (woman) when I grew up.
7. When I was younger, I once stole a library book! It was a book about the Beatles with lots of pictures.
8. I've flown an airplane.
9. I’m addicted to American Idol.
10. I used to collect dog Beanie Babies. I have every dog from Spot (the first dog) through 2004. I finally quit because there were too many. I still have them all.
11. I once saved a straw wrapper that was discarded by a guy I liked in high school. It was thrown in the trash and my friend Gayle dug it out for me. I briefly dated that guy 20 years later. No, I had tossed out the straw wrapper decades ago.
12. I experience major anxiety when I toss recyclables in the trash.
13. My favorite alcoholic drinks are: Saracco Moscato d’Asti, Cape Cod, and a gin and tonic.
14. I’ve been going to the gym for 12 years. At one point I went 6 days a week. Now I’m lucky to get there once a week.
15. I believe in ghosts.
16. After I graduated from college, I worked at Ala Moana Liberty House for 1 day. I quit after work.
17. I get vertigo. I used to get it frequently in college, not as much now.
18. My favorite ice cream: Ben and Jerry’s Chocolate Fudge Brownie and Coconut Seven Layer Bar
19. I only wear Victoria’s Secret underwear.
20. My favorite football teams are the Green Bay Packers, SF 49ers, and Washington Redskins. I chose them back in high school because I liked their helmets the best.
21. If I had to move to the mainland, I’d move to San Francisco.
22. The only thing I’ve ever stolen in my life (okay, besides the library book) was a kumquat.
23. I hate Vienna sausages. I’d rather eat my own hand. I will never feed them to my son, but he does like them.
24. My favorite thing about being a librarian is giving a child their first library card.
25. I can crack my knuckle on my right hand just by making a fist and opening my hand.
My mood: tired
