i finally did it
well a week or so ago Brian, Lauren, & Leyla posted their "honesty post"...and I started mine at least 4 times..but never finished...so here is goes..
I present 100 things you probably didn't know about me....but might find very interesting...even if you dont it was interesting for me to write...
1) I was born on March 8, 1985 at 4:46 PM. I weighed 5 lbs. (I wasn't a preemie.)
2) My mom was worried that the size of my small head would later affect my intelligence. (my boyfriend still points it out)
3) I started daycare/pre-school when I was 5 and 1/2 weeks old.
4) My daddy took me to pre-school every morning...with my clothes on backwards and my hair in a really tight ponytail. Because it was my dad who took me every morning, my two favorite songs from about age 2 til 6 were Red Red Wine and Manic Monday (Ms. Dotty says they asked him to pick a more appropriate music choice on school days)
5) Ms. Dotty (who was the Director where I work now she's the Kindergarten teacher at the moment) was my 2 year old Teacher's Aid
6) I have known Marina and Dana their entire lives, our moms are best friends so the 3 of us were raised like sisters. Dana is actually my god-sister.
7) Alyse was my first best friend. We met the 2nd day of kindergarten...Hutch was trying to kiss all the girls on the playground and we hid in the same place.
8) The day before picture day in 4th grade my grandpa and i were playing catch and the baseball hit me right in the lip...GREAT picture.
9) Alyse and I have both always been deathly afraid of Ronald McDonald....we still are.
10) I lost my first tooth when I was 3 mom obviously freaked out but the dentist said it was ok..I was just early...I had all my permanent teeth by the age of 9.
11) Speaking of abnormal health issues....I am naturally immune to the chicken pox. I am allergic to mosquitos..not as bad as I used to be...I have been hospitalized 3 or 4 times from mosquito bites. I had strep throat every month for like 2 years..so I had my tonsils taken out when I was 5. I missed a week of kindergarten and actually got sick of ice cream. I remember I had chocolate flavored anesthesia and when I woke up I screamed "mommy" and then threw up.....not a good memory.
