Five Things You Don't Know About Me

I was looking at my friends list the other night and it made me realize that most of the people on my list don’t know a lot about me.  Some of the people on the list I have known since I was a child, attended elementary, middle, or high school with while others are from my college years.  And some of the people I’ve come in contact with through various stages of my adult life.  Then I thought, regardless of how we know one another there are probably some things that my friends don’t know about me.  So, here it is.  I’m letting you all in on some very special things about me. 

1)       I have 4 dogs. 

I know it sounds crazy and yes at times, our house is like a zoo but I wouldn’t trade it for anything.  I had two dogs when I met my husband and he also had two.  Now, I’m a small dog kind of girl but like any man, he’s got the “big is better” thought and had two bigger dogs, Siberian Huskies.  Yes, I know…they’re pretty dogs and they are but all that darn hair all over is not so pretty.  I do have to admit they’re cute, comical, and unique souls.  I have two terriers, Isabell, a Westie (West Highland White Terrier) and Tinkerbell (terrier mix).  The two small ones have been through a lot with me in the past few years.  And yes, all four of them are spoiled brats. 

2)      I dislike Chocolate cake.

There I admit it!  I’m not a big fan of chocolate cake.  Once in a while I’ll eat it but I prefer yellow cake or cheesecake…yum!  Call me crazy but chocolate is not one of my favorites for ice cream either.  I do love me some chocolate candy.

3)       Watching TMZ is one of my guilty pleasures.

I’m addicted to the celebrity gossip and happenings.  Who knows why I like to watch it so much and/or care but I do.  Heck, I may not be able to win Jeopardy based on my historical knowledge but I’m all over pop culture stuff.  When that stuff comes on…BOOM, can’t touch this!

4)      I won the 5^th Grade science fair.

I can’t remember what the project was but I know that I received 1^st place.  If my memory serves me correct, I believe it had something to do with a potato. 

5)      I wanted to marry Mighty Mouse.

Yes, I’m woman enough to admit it! When I was a little girl, I had a crush on Mighty Mouse.  “Here I come to save the day…”  I don’t know why or what made him so desirable to my 5 year old self but he was my first crush.
