NaBloPoMo Day #15...... Things you didn't know.....

Help! I am idealess - if that is a word - about what to blog about, but I committed to do this every day this month, so I am going to blog about me again. How exciting. Even makes me yawn! I decided to dig up stuff the average person may not know about me. Read it if you're bored. In the meantime, I could use some blogging ideas!

1) I love to eat spaghetti and pizza sauce. To this day, my mother gives me the can or jar to clean out after she is done with it.

2) Sweetened condensed milk....... I love to eat it out of the can, usually a little at a time. I made the mistake of eating a whole can recently at work and felt rather ill afterwards - guess it is better in small doses. :-)

3) I feel much better about myself with my head shaved, than when I was balding

4) I am scared to death of snakes.

5) I hate football. Ok, maybe that is well known......

6) I think it would be cool to live in a lighthouse

7) I am secretly in love with Sarah Palin

8) I can actually run pretty fast

9) I hate winter. OK, no big secret, but figured I'd toss it in anyway

10) I think Amy Grant is kind of hot, especially for her age

11) I tried smoking when I was about 8 years old. Thought I'd never quit choking. Wish certain other people had had the same experience

12) On most days, I question my decision of moving back to Ohio from Indiana

13) I have 2 other blogs, one very new

14) Of all the things I fear, I fear growing old alone the most

15) I usually start listening to Christmas music in late September

16) I make my bed daily.

17) I think Becky Hartley would make a great mother-in-law

18) I need new socks

19) I love covered bridges

20) I think my car is leaking transmission fluid

21) I counted the crosses at church once during a boring sermon. There are a lot - they are on the hymnbooks, the lights, even some people have crossed eyes....

22) Most of the time, I don't like myself

23) I went hunting one year - when I was 12. I got lost.

24) I hate ties. I blame my college days.

25) I read in the bathroom

26) I remember most of the jokes I read and hear. Some times it seems everything someone says triggers the memory of a joke

27) I like Dolly Parton's singing

28) People think I am outgoing, and maybe I am, but not until I get to know people. I can be very shy and backward

29) I cried for a few months before I turned 40. I am still depressed about it, and now I am 41.....

30) I want an SUV

31) I want enough $$ to afford an SUV

32) I can't swim

33) I feel totally alone most of the time

34) I have a hit out on Todd Palin so I can marry Sarah when he is out of the way (Ok - in case someone is dumb enough to not know it, I am kidding!)

35) I will buy and listen to Christmas CDs of artists that I don't normally listen to.

36) I play the piano, organ, and tuba. Ok, not the tuba

37) There are people whose houses I'd like to toilet paper

38) I always wanted a brother

39) I actually enjoy speaking. Not sure why

40) I dream of having a house big enough that I can set a room aside to be a library, complete with fireplace and a lazyboy recliner.

41) I don't like going to church anymore

42) Fear has held me back from a lot in life

43) I hate to shave, but I hate facial hair on men worse, even myself

44) I think women who wear eyeshadow look like raccoons

45) I secretly feel I will never measure up to anyone's expectations...... even God's

46) If my life's story was published, people would be shocked to know the real me

47) I stole a pen in 3rd grade, the only thing I ever stole

48) I hate weddings, and do not attend them unless I am roped into being in them, or unless they are my sisters getting married. But again.... I was in those weddings ;-)

49) I am very afraid of heights

50) Secretly...... I think tattoos are kind of cool - in moderation

51) Some nights I wish I had a teddy bear

52) The worst Christmas present I ever got was a football

53) The best Christmas present I ever got was an Ipod

54) Though I dreaded jury duty and was bored out of my mind, I enjoyed hanging out with my fellow jurors and had a lot of fun on our breaks

55) I have way too many regrets in life

56) I don't think I will ever be truly happy. Or ever have been

57) I started writing a book, but got sidetracked by depression

58) I am actually a rather good cook

64) Winter depresses me

65) I love hot tubs

You could elaborate on many of the things you just listed.
I have just one son. Talk about why you wanted a brother and how you think it would have changed your life.

I knew a lot of those "things I don't know." I didn't know a lot them also, of course.

What's your newest blog? Do you still keep up on your music blog (I think that is what it was)?
