Embarassing things you may not know

OK...enough with the emotional and on with the fun.

The only crying I want around here is the laughing type.

Here are some things about me (in no particular order)

1. As a kid, I used to swim with my shorts on so my bathing suit wouldn't get wet.
2. My grandfather once let me sip his beer so much I got drunk and closed my hair in my bedroom window (I was about 12)
3. In college, I got so drunk I took the garbage out in my underwear.
4. I met my husband in a toll booth, he was a toll collector, I was a green Camaro.
5. Almost all of my ex boyfriends are dead, or have had a life threatening disease.
6. I am so far sighted that I can't see my meal when I eat if I don't wear my glasses.
7. I grow hairs on my chin and lip faster than the speed of sound. If I tweeze or wax, there are new ones before I leave the salon.
8. I am a pack rat.
9. Folk Singer Pete Seeger was my next door neighbor growing up. He saved my great grandfather from a fire in his house when I was 8.
10. The man who owns the single largest collection of Mickey Mouse memoriabilia in the world is a close friend of the family. I blame him for my addiction.
11. I've always found men with very short beards very sexy. My husband refuses to grow one.
12. I am a reality TV show addict.
13. I have a very short attention span.
14. I had arthritis as a child and was never expected to walk.
15. A rattlesnake once slithered across my foot.
16. I would starve to death before I ate a banana.

There you have it...exciting, huh.
