3 Random Things

I saw this on someone's blog (okay, it was 7 random things, but I thought that might be excessive.)

3 Random things about you (that we may or may not know.. preferably do not know.)

Re: 3 Random Things

  • 1 - I have keratosis pilaris (aka chicken skin), so my arms and legs look like this (from google... not a picture of me):

    Keratosis Pilaris

    2 - I actually don't mind liver and onions.  It's not something I seek out, but I certainly don't mind eating it once in a great while.

    3 - ETA: Our new duplex has a dishwasher, but we don't use it.  (It is very reminiscent of the one we had in our apartment - it was craptastic and we'd end up rinsing and then drying the dishes after they'd been run through a cycle.)  We also needed a new dish drying rack...we found one we liked at BB&B, but I wasn't willing to spend $25 on it.  So we now wash our dishes and put them in the dishwasher to dry.

  • 1 - I am legally blind (but my vision is correctable with glasses and contacts).

    2 - I used to be fluent in sign language. 

    3 - My pants are too big.

  • 1. My three sisters and I all have boys nicknames that we go by. I think my dad wanted boys.

    2. My dad's cousin is John Lovitz (if you don't know who he is, he is an obnoxious actor, you would probably recognize if you saw him)

    3. I was arrested in college for driving without a license (long story, it wasn't really my fault but my parents were pisssssed)

  • 1. Kinda mentioned this the other day but I have an ear cleaning obsession!  I seriously clean my ears twice a day!

    2. I was the first in my family to graduate college (not my extended family)

    3. I absolutely hate to fold laundry.  I don't know what it is but I hate it!  And socks...I hate pairing them up!

  • 1- I have an older half sister.  I "met" her when I was a baby and that's it.  The last I heard she lives in CA and wants nothing to do with my dad (understandable).  Oh and DH's family doesn't know about her (DH does)

    2- When I was younger (like up the point of college) I preferred to eat off of divided plates.  I still hate when certain foods touch and will specifically place certain foods next to each other.

    3- I hate the skin on peaches.  I won't eat a peach with the skin.  I have to peel it off.

    I agree with #'s 2 & 3 word for word!

    My foods cannot touch either!  Drives my DH crazy!

  • 1.  I keep fresh flowers in my office at all times.  I didn't have a chance to go get any for last week, and I was supposed to be off Thurs-Mon anyway, and it felt so weird.  Today I brought in purple irises.

    2.  I keep air freshener on my desk for when I touch up my nails at work.  I don't think anyone would care, but the smell of nail polish drives me nuts.  I guess a related thing would be that I touch up my nails almost every morning.

    3.  I have all four of my passing exam results on my bulletin board in my office.  I kept telling everyone that I'd take them down once I get my real certificate...instead, I hung the certificate above the scores.  I'm not ready to part witht them yet.

    Oh I have a bonus one I just thought of.  I keep good fortune cookie fortunes.  I just counted - I have 11 right in front of me right now.  Two are taped to my exam scores ("You will be pleasently surprised soon" and "You're at that critical point.  Make that last push.")...that's what made me think of it.

    Damn you Nest for screwing up my siggy!

    I have one of these on my work computer screen: "There is no secret to success except hard work."

    (Which is really ironic while I Nest as much as I do at work. LOL)
