I've been tagged by Jen to post 7 honest things about myself. I've never been tagged before, it is kinda cool! Huh, not sure how interesting or deep my relevations will be but here goes...
1. I can wiggle my ears. It is a little trick that I figured out that I could do when I was about five years old. I believe I was trying to wiggle my nose like Samantha from Bewitched - but my ears wiggled instead.
2. I fell asleep at the wheel once when I was 21. I had worked a very long day and went to meet some friends after work at a deli since it was Halloween (Don't worry, I wasn't drinking. I am a self-imposed non-drinker.). I headed home about 11pm down a long and dark stretch of road. I had rolled down my windows and turned up the radio to stay awake. I remember blinking and when my eyes opened all I saw was weeds flying by my car. Evidently I had crossed several lanes of traffic (nobody was there luckily), narrowly avoided a power box, jumped my car over a small canyon and landed in a patch of land behind someone's backyard. I had to stand on the roof of my car to find the road (no lights) and I turned my car that direction and prayed I would make it. I did. All my car suffered was two blown out tires and a dent in the hood. I drove my car two miles like that to a grocery store and called a friend for help. My guardian angel was watching over me that night for sure!!
3. I am a freak about laundry. Living with my brother (whom I do love and adore) taught me that men can not be trusted with a washer and dryer. I don't know how many items he changed the color of or shrunk. So many shirts and pants from Katya's and my closet have to be dripped dry I don't let anyone help me. So, Bob is forbidden from doing laundry. He doesn't mind.
4. I worked as a Microbiologist Tech for about two years when I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life. I worked in a clean room, made agar, grew all kind of nasty things, counted spores...etc. It made me a total clean freak for years and years. I used to clean my keyboard, phone and desk with IPA (rubbing alcohol) every Friday for about ten years before I mellowed out a bit.
5. When we travel, I check out the bathroom of any hotel we are staying at before I sign anything. I am a freak about a clean bathroom. Probably because of #4. I KNOW what can grow where.
6. I am an appliance junkie. I just love to get all those infomercial gadgets that are supposed to make cooking sooooooooo easy. Even though I don't really like to cook, I like the gadgets. Whenever I have insomnia, it costs a lot of money because then my willpower is non-existant.
7. I love cold sugar cereals. I mean LOVE them. I try and be good and only eat healthy, whole grain, and organic cereals but sometimes I indulge. I love Golden Grahams, Fruit Loops, Super Sugar Crisp, Pops, Fruity Pebbles, Frosted Flakes, Cookie Crisp, Lucky Charms, Captain Crunch with Crunchberries.... I could go on and on. Yum!
