1. I am self-conscious about my feet. They are big.
2. I am intelligent. The worst thing someone could say to me is that I am stupid.
3. I hate the wind. It scares me. I don't like the sounds it makes. I don't even like wind chimes.
4. I am my mother: emotional; can't stand when shoes are left around the house; don't like to be in the way; worrier; thoughtful.
5. I am my father: may seem emotionally detached, but I do care (it all comes out when i turn into Nancy); serious; dependable; surprisingly funny; I have no problem completely re-loading the dishwasher more strategically so all dirty dishes will fit appropriately.
6. I am the peacemaker; not by avoiding confrontation, but by dealing with things realistically.
7. I aspire to be a good cook.
8. I have never broken a bone (besides fingers/toes).
9. I love to laugh. It makes me feel the best. Ask anyone, I'll laugh at just about anything. The harder I laugh, the better I feel.
10. I am content.
11. I love my husband. While I may not devote blog posts solely to proclaiming my love for him, I do think he's tops.
12. I shop with purpose; I'm not a browser.
13. I am the granddaughter of an English language professor. It makes me absolutely crazy when people use poor grammar. I can't say I'm perfect, but at least I can formulate sentences correctly.
14. I love carbohydrates. Candy, cereal, bread; I love them all.
15. I let my mind wander. Perhaps that's why I have such a hard time focusing when I read a book.
16. I love to clean house, de-clutter, basically throw things away. This includes regular trips to the Goodwill and the weekly purging of the refrigerator.
17. I have a genuine concern for people. I sincerely like to help others.
18. I regret. My biggest college regret is not taking Calculus. My life would likely be much different if I had taken and passed that class and pursued business. But I may have never met Dave had I not gone the course I did. So it all worked out.
19. I'm a nail biter. Always have been. Probably always will be.
20. I love my dog. If my child is loved half as much as Lucy is, he'll be very well taken care of.
21. I get anxiety over commitment, whether big or small (i.e. what color to paint a room).
22. I'd like to collect art. If I ever have excessive amounts of money some day, aside from traveling (see 23), I would love to have all sorts of art -- classical, abstract, doesn't matter -- on the walls of my home.
23. I love to travel. I love new adventures. I love the excitement of preparing to go somewhere new and experience new peoples/places/cultures.
24. I speak Spanish...sort of. A summer in Spain helped me hone my spanish-speaking ability. After I got married I taught Spanish to elementary-aged kids. Nowadays I'm a bit out of practice, but I think I could still get by.
25. I love to run. I desperately miss it as I haven't been able to go for a real run in several months (a pregnant woman passing out while miles from home doesn't make for the best situation). I can't wait for baby and springtime to come.
26. I am a writer. Though this practice of putting thoughts and ideas on paper does not come easily for me, I find great satisfaction in it.
