25 Things About Me

Apparently this is a rite of passage in the blogging world. Let me see if I can whip up 25 interesting factoids about me as today's blog entry mysteriously vanished, kind of like Lindsay Lohan's career when I hit preview. This might be fun....

1). My first name means "Earth" and my middle name means "water" but my parents are far from hippies
2.) I don't know how to ride a bike
3.) I secretly would love to be a show host on HSN or QVC. Well, I just said it so it's not a secret anymore.
4.) I think you can tell a lot about a person by how they treat the waitstaff and animals.
5.) I am very serious about my teeth.
6.) My favorite scents are coconut, the ocean, ginger, and fresh cut grass. But not necessarily all together.
7.)When I was pregnant with my daughter, I was concerned that her due date might somehow impact my ability to see UGA play for a National Championship in football. My daughter is 6 so I am sure we can all agree that was an unnecessary concern.
8.) I love a bargain
9.) I find it is difficult to watch my kids grow up. I love watching them morph into unique individuals, but the time seems to fly.
10.) I am incredibly superstitious and have this thing about numbers.
11.) I can imitate just about anyone. Remember, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
12.) Nothing compares to laughing so hard you cry.
13.) Red bean ice cream rules
14.) Every year I get so psyched up about the NFL draft. Not sure why because I won't be getting the signing bonus!
15.) Karma. I am a big believer. It doesn't always seem like it occurs, but things have a way of working out the way they are supposed to be.....much to my chagrin!
16.) The first initials of my 3  kids' names in birth order spell NFL. I didn't realize that until after my son (Lambchop-not his real name) was born, but it should count for something. ESPN-give me a call:)
17.) Just looking at those rides at amusement parks makes me want to hurl. However, I will ride them.
18.) My daughter is absolutely hilarious. She  is so animated that I can't help but laugh.
19.) My vanity license plate would say "Low maintenance". Really. Well. it would be tough to get that on a single plate but it certainly wouldn't say "easy".
20.) Nothing compares to being a mother. It is demanding but worth it.
21.) I have done some incredibly stupid things....things that make me cringe. Things that make others cringe too. But I remember them so I don't repeat the mistakes.
22.) To each his own, but I don't understand getting tattoos on your face.
23.) I love infomercial products and so do my kids. Is that genetic?
24.) Leaving toothpaste in the sink has probably broken up many marriages. Wash it away.
25.) Why does my husband leave 1 triscuit in the box? Do you feel guilty for eating the last one? Isn't the triscuit lonely? Eat the last one or throw the box away.

Okay this was cheating as it isn't a real entry, but I have to rewrite the fantabulous story that disappeared.
