30 Facts About Yours Truly - November Blogathon

It's finally here! Welcome November and welcome Blogathon...

I've been thinking about this post all day. Mostly because I have no idea which 30 facts I'm going to share. Then I started listing ridiculous things: I'm right handed - yawn... I have brown hair - obvious. So bear with me. Hopefully this list will be more fruitful and exciting than the aforementioned snoozeville facts.

HERE WE GO...

  1. I was born with cleft lip and palate
  2. I used to be obsessed with Buffy the Vampire Slayer between 5th grade - Sophomore in high school. Super embarrassing! 
  3. I have a hippie dream of owning a summer camp. I love the camaraderie between the campers and the counselors. Camp was always a magical place for me. 
  4. On that note, I used to go to craniofacial camp. It was a camp where all the campers had craniofacial deformities. Such a great feeling to be "normal" and around people that were just like me for a few days. 
  5. I have a fear of Gary Sinise. It's not logical but it's a real deep down fear.... Blegh
  6. I have the strange talent of being able to tell what mixes most dogs are. I have yet to discover where this talent comes in handy in my life. Although, it has impressed my husband from time to time.
  7. I miss reading! Having a one year old does not leave me much time to sit and crack open a book. At least, a book that's author isn't Dr. Seuss. 
  8. I have a guilty pleasure of reality TV. Bravo is my secret drug... 
  9. My husband and I celebrate the day we met as our "friend-iversary".
  10. I always wanted to move to NYC. I got as close as Syracuse.... Brrrrr...
  11. I have my bachelor's degree in Psychology
  12. I changed my major 3 times: Public Relations, Aesthetics Specialist, and Business ... I'm still not sure I made the right choice.
  13. I love being a mother more than I ever thought I would. I thought I would miss going into an office, wearing heels, and sending emails... Turns out I don't but benefits talk.
  14. Thank God for Pinterest because my family would be so sick of the only 2 meals I could make - spaghetti and breaded chicken cutlet.
  15. I love a parade. Especially if there's a marching band in it. 
  16. I want to be a snow bird when I grow up... Mountains in the summer and beach in the winter... Sign me up, please!!!
  17. I want to be a tough girl when I'm out on the farm but the quick movement of a bug, animal, piece of grass and I will jump out of my skin because I'm obviously being attacked.
  18. I think I only want one child. Not sure if this is a fact considering I'm not sure how I feel about it yet but I'm putting it out there. 
  19. I make fake trips on Expedia so I can have a number in my head of how much I need to save for - if I ever got the chance to travel to Europe. Then something in the house breaks and my Europe money turns into A/C money. 
  20. I used to be a really good singer. I performed in school, church, and summer camp.
  21. I have to wear special earplugs on an airplane because I can't regulate the air pressure changes
  22. I really enjoy cleaning my ears with a q-tip. 
  23. I'm a cryer. It's my reaction to anything in life. Happy - cry. Sad - cry. Scared - cry. Excited - cry. Nervous - nausea and probably cry. 
  24. I can play the spoons. Thank you Dollywood and our family vacation circa 1996.
  25. I really want to find a church that I feel at home in. I grew up in church and I haven't found one that I've been comfortable in since I left Syracuse 2 years ago. 
  26. I'm a matching freak. I think it hinders my fashion daring-ness
  27. When I was a bartender, I could blow fire. 
  28. I used to be a bartender... Is this one cheating?? 
  29. I'm my parents' only child but I have 4 siblings from my dad's other marriages. 
  30. I was born in Brooklyn, New York, moved to Florida when I was 3 years old, and I still consider myself a New Yorker. 

There you have it! I did it... Phew! My husband even popped his head into the room to offer some facts. None of which I used - thanks anyway, babe. 

Until tomorrow my friends... #NovemberBlogathon
