When you were in school, did you ever recycle a writing assignment by changing it slightly to suit the assignment for another class? And then another? Was it possible to just rewrite your interpretation of Wuthering Heights over and over?
So, a friend said, "Post something new on your blog." And it's now 11:41 pm and I'm tired because I stayed up until 3:30 am yesterday. Or something. I'm really too sleepy to figure it out.
And here we are... I'm recycling something from my facebook page and making it a blog post. I wonder if I'll still think it's a good idea tomorrow.
A List of 25 Random Facts About Me:
1) I love cats.
2) I love coffee.
3) I was once lost in the woods for several hours. Rescued by rangers on horses. A few weeks before I turned 11. (Anyone from Catlin remember that?)
4) My favorite snack is fresh avocado.
5) On my first date with my husband I had died my hair in purple and gold stripes. We went to a movie at the mall. It was March 1986.
6) When I was a little girl, my family and I lived in England for three years.
7) I know a lot about bats.
8) I can identify a lot of types of trees by their leaves and some by their bark.
9) My favorite piece of clothing is the dress I wore to Betsy's wedding.
10) I have the most loyal, funny, smart, pretty, thoughtful friends in the world.
11) My family is cool too. Seriously, I'm really lucky to have the amazing family that I do.
12) I've lived in 13 different places. (Permanent residences. That doesn't include moving around college or when we stayed with my grandparents for a few months.)
13) I was once snowed in alone for four days and had nothing to eat except leftover Kentucky Fried Chicken and water. And it should be noted that I think Kentucky Fried Chicken is gross and that by the end of the four days, it was four-day-old Kentucky Fried Chicken. I also only had access to local TV and I wasn't in my own place, so I only had the clothes and other things that I'd packed.
14) I'm really, really good at finding things. I can sometimes even help people find things over the phone.
15) I want to be friends with a vampire.
16) I make lists for everything.
17) At points in my adult life I wanted to have the following careers: Teacher, Movie Director, Neurologist, Detective
18) The ring tone on my phone when I first made this list was "Remember When" by Alan Jackson. Now it's "Need You Now" by Lady Antebellum
19) I really like candy, but I don't really like baked goods.
20) I'm slowly writing three novels. It's not hard to work on three novels at once when you only write four or five pages a year.
21) My dishwasher is my favorite appliance.
22) Halloween is my favorite holiday.
23) It makes me crazy when someone leave a message saying that they have something funny or interesting to share. And then, when you talk later, they can't remember what it was. Sometimes, when I get a message like that, I frantically call the person, even if I'm in the middle of something. I get so worried that they'll forget and I'll never know the thing they were going to say. Right Shana?
24) I'm good at higher math, but I have trouble counting and adding.
25) I used to be able to recite the entire movie, "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" from memory. I can still do it if I watch it once through to refresh.
