Tag....


I was tagged by one of my new favorite persons Laura, and since I've never been tagged before i thought "hey why not!" I always enjoy reading other people's blogs. So i guess here it goes!
Seven random or weird facts about ME!

1. I hate going into pets stores and walking by the aquarium section, it totally freaks me out i don't know what it is about aquariums that gives me the willys but every single one does.. also to go along with that fear i would rather open my eyes underwater in a swimming pool with out goggles then with, it just doesn't feel right being able to see that clearly underwater, that also gives me the willys .

2. I like to read true crime books, i have a interest in murders and murderers. I read about serial killers and wonder "how did they become something so evil" i guess it's a little sick but reading about this stuff is a guilty pleasure of mine. (must be the "cop" in me)

3. When i was in seventh grade wood shop class i was making a wooden owl and sliced opened my middle finger on my left hand using the ban saw. The worst part was that in the middle of the night i ended up ripping off the butterfly stitches and bleeding all over the place. I now have a very faint white scar on that finger.

4. I married a man i met in college, come to find out Bill not only lived around the corner from me growing up, we went to the same school, we knew all the same people, but our paths didn't cross till many years later. I always tell him our paths didn't cross sooner because if they had i know i never would of ended up dating him let alone marrying him.

5. I'm a bit OCD, bill makes fun of me for it but I'm SUPER anal. Things have to be in their place and I'm constantly doing the laundry and the dishes.(i hate a pile of dirty clothes or dishes in the sink) At work first thing i do is rearrange my desk(i share with another girl) to they way it's suppose to be, then i can begin my day.

6. My favorite website is Wikipedia, i love looking up random stuff on it, i say I'm "researching" my co-worker Chris says it "surfing the net" either way I'm always on there. today in fact i "researched" the following: The Marquis De Sade, The Bastille, Styrofoam, Changeling, Onion Fields, and mad king ludwig castles. I could easily spend hours on wikipedia looking up facts. it's very entertaining for me! Often dictionary.com is wikipedia's companion.

7. Even though I've graduated college, gone to school and taken my State Board exam for cosmetology (i'm a licensed hair dresser) i still work at dodge my high school job and do hair on the side at home. It's been 8 years at dodge and i don't really see myself leaving anytime soon. I think this place has a way of sucking people in and never letting you go. it's reminds me of the song "Hotel California" Lets just say most of the guys i work with still say "this is just a job to get me through school.... they all have been working here 15 plus years and are NOT going to school anymore!

Tag... You're it!

I would have to say that was VERY fun to read. Way to find 7 good facts about you. I was learning lots :) I love that you are a wikipedia fan, so is Brian. I am always laughing because he will be on their looking things up too! Sad to say I did not know you are a liciense hairdresser. Way to go you! But, I can understand your love for Dodge. It must be the people you work for :)
