I can walk with my shoes untied and not trip over the laces…ever.
How?
Well it’s the way that I walk. I have always walked with my feet slanting slightly outwards, so there you go. At least, that’s what my mother says. What she doesn’t know is that I don’t walk that way anymore! LOL! I actually have drastically corrected the way that I walk, thanks to a few sessions with a personal trainer a few years back. Who knew that a personal trainer would be the one to show me how to correct my knee problems AND fix the way that I walk.

There you have it, the one fact that no one but me and Jesus knew till now.
Do you have any little things that people don’t know about you?

Okay so I was tagged by Marcus to tell 18 things about myself. Here goes:

1. Being close to 30 makes me feel like time is running out.
2. I was once fluent in Spanish.
3. I love cats moreso than dogs.
4. Even though I don’t really want any more kids, I am going to have another one before I turn 30.
5. I am allergic to mosquitoes.
6. I love to sing opera.
7. I am a collector of unusual plastic cups.
8. My favorite video game of all time is Tetris.
9. Watching Olympic Ice skating makes me cry.
10. I could eat pasta at least once every single day.
11. I went to Stockton college for 3 years before I finally said enough.
12. Only 2 classes that I took actually serve my purposes for the work I do now.
13. I have never cheated on my husband.
14. I could never live in the city. I am country born and raised.

16. I love doing search word puzzles. I picked up the habit from my grandmother.
17. I want to learn how to crochet, but I don’t have the patience just yet.
18. I love making things with my hands.

Who should I tag? This one was pretty hard. I never think 18 things about myself. I don’t know if I want to tag anyone. If you feel it, do it.

I got this from my buddy Myclette on Mindsay:

1. What is your best friend’s Mom’s name? Nancy

3. Who was the hottest teacher you ever had?  I didn’t really get into my teachers.

4. Have you ever made out in a movie theater? Yessir.

I have been tagged by Deb to list 5 obsessions, then tag other people.

I am obsessed with:

• Tea and Coffee, but you all knew that already.
• Music, yet another obsession of mine. I can’t go one day without some kind of music. I have a radio implanted in my head…or maybe it’s an iPod.
• Knowledge. I am forever looking for books and reading new things. I love to seek information.
• Shopping for bargains. It gives me a sadistic thrill to find the things that I need at lower prices somewhere else. It gives me a high like no other.
• Writing. Writing is like speaking. If I couldn’t speak, I would have to be able to write. If I can’t write or speak then I think I shall die.

Once upon a time I was a telemarketer. This job only lasted me about 8 months. I didn’t even know I stayed there that long until I had looked at my piddlin’ paystubs. I sold enough there to be liked, but not enough to be loved. I did find some good friends while I was selling accidental Death Insurance. I hated that I would wake up reciting the scripts. You would do the same ones so much that you would have 3 or 4 memorized. I don’t know how anyone can stand to be in that job for long. It was so ridiculous. I couldn’t stand calling people while they were in the process of eating dinner or being with their families on the weekend. Thank God I found a better job and was able to move on.

Yes you can learn a lot from watching television. I am watching my second favorite show Iron Chef America and one of the 2 secret ingredients is coconut. The announcer said that coconut milk is a sterile food and was used as an intravenous food for hurt soldiers in World War II.

My sister told me that the word Spic came from Spanish speaking people saying “no spic ingles” … Well I had to laugh because that is one of the silliest things I have ever heard. It’s even worse because it’s true.

Spic is a clipping of the adjective spiggoty which was applied to immigrants from Central and South America because they did not “spiggoty English” (speak the English).

Holy mess! I had to laugh hysterically at this since it was just so ridiculous. The ways that people can find to make something derogatory never cease to amaze me. For instance, how do you get coon for a derogatory word for African-Americans?
