11 Random Things About Me

My friend Kathy has tagged me...and I think I've done this before--but because I love her, I will do it again.

1. I read American Idol blogs to keep up during the off season. I must know what they're up to!

2. I have really disgusting feet. Like, cracked heels and tough skin. I think it's because I always ran around barefoot as a kid. Some habits never die.

3. Even though I grew up with all brothers, I've managed to become quite girly. You might not know by looking at me--but I am totally into fashion, hair & makeup. Some day when we have money, I'll be able to live my secret dream of dressing cute :) Not necessarily expensive--just fashionable.

4. I used to be a total neat freak when I was younger. I hate the fact that I haven't been able to keep up with that. My ideal house will be simple and neat yet warm and inviting.

5. I got mis-diagnosed with bipolar disorder a few years ago. Turns out I'm still crazy--but not bipolar! YAY!!

6. I once saw an old movie called "Two Weeks With Love" and I can't find it anywhere, not even on eBay. I so desperately want to find a copy of it. It was hilarious and so cute. ETA: My friend Brianna found it for me!! She wins. Thanks again!

7. I have the hardest time paying attention during fight scenes in movies. It's like my mind shuts off or goes off to a more interesting thought until the fight is over. I just want to know who wins--I don't care how they get there.

8. When I first learned how to swim under water, I was taught to plug my nose with my lips.

9. I love Costco. When Danny and I were first married, we'd walk around and just drool all over the TVs, computers & cameras. It's such a cool store. Plus, they feed you on the end of practically every aisle! Who doesn't like that?

10. With the exception of once (a nanny job with a crazy man)--every single time I have interviewed for a job, I've gotten an offer.

11. When I get mad--I clean. I should probably get mad more often.

OK finding the movie is going to be my new obsession. I hate when people say they cant FIND something because for some reason it ignites this deep seated NEED within me to find it! I looked for the movie...can you tell me a few actors in it? I found a movie called TWO weeks with love that has Debbie Reynolds in it. And another movie called Three weeks TO love that is set in Japan. But I cant find Three weeks with love. I know I need help......

Ha!!! Yes, that is it! Maybe it would help if I knew the freaking name of it!! Yeah! I wish they had a DVD version of it. You are my hero Brianna!
RaeLynn said…
I CANNOT emphasize how much I love you. Seriously--you have no idea how hilarious this movie. For some reason, I have this idea in my head that old movies aren't as funny as movies are now--but this one proves me wrong every time. You ROCK!!
Brianna said…
HAHAHAHA! Seriously if you ever need info on ANYTHING or have to find hard to find items or whatever...I am your girl..its like this sick disease that I have. I know I probably annoy the crap out of people all the time but I can hardly think of a time that I didn't end up finding what they needed LOL! A "barely" highschool acquaintance of mine posted a picture on facebook of a spider she found on her property and wondered "aloud" what kind it was......I totally searched and found it and posted a few links under the picture-just like I did here. Im sure she's like "wow you have no life"....I need help.......

Wow, I am coming to your friend Brianna if I ever need to find something. That is not a sickness, it is a gift! I love the random, and when I saw the title of your post I laughed because I just did a random post myself. Love ya Rae, wish you lived closer so I could make you be my full-time friend (even though you already have a full-time job). :)

lol, Clay likes it when I'm mad because I will rip out the old linoleum and put in new tile or something. Although he can't really afford making me mad often, now can he? And I love your #9...just last weekend Akaila asked if we could go to Costco to eat!
