17 random things

Well, Sarah Smoker tagged me to write 17 random things about myself.  So here goes:

1.  I stopped drinking caffeine a year and a half ago.  I haven't had it since, except for a little mix-up involving Sunkist.  Apparently it has caffeine.  A lot of it.  Who knew??

2.  My parents and I call each other every time it snows to say "IT NOWING!!"  I know...we're dorks! And thankfully we live in Cincy, where it doesn't snow too much.  Man, if we lived in NH we'd never get off the phone!

3.  I like ducks.  I think they're fun and I like when they quack.  They just put a smile on my face.  The cutest duck ever was Alex on Halloween :)

4.  I used to be a Spanish teacher.

5.  My Christmas stocking is the huge red M&M character.

6.  I can burp. Loudly.  If I want to, and if I've had either pop or beer.

7.  I will eat ranch dressing on almost any food.  I have a "ranch tooth" instead of a "sweet tooth."

8.  Grant and I watch the movie "Elf" with Will Ferrell every year on Thanksgiving weekend.

9.  I seem quiet and reserved to most people who know me, but to my close friends and family I am loud and funny on occasion.

10.  I like bacon.  Which, apparently, is shocking to my best friend.

11.  I teach dance to little (and big) kids.  Ballet, tap, lyrical, jazz, etc.

12.  I don't eat mushrooms.  My mom got sick off of mushrooms when I was about 5.  I haven't touched them since.  

13.  To go along with #12...I am a puke-a-phobic.  It really used to be a problem.  Then I got pregnant.   It's not so much a problem anymore.  

14.  I LOVE being a mother.  It really feels like my calling in life.  It just feels so natural to me and I could not love my Buster more.  But, somehow, it still feels like I love him more everyday. 

15.  I like to put a piece of lime in my Bud Light.  And I did this before they ever marketed Bud Light Lime.  It just adds such a good flavor.

16.  I love the TV show "Friends."  It upsets me that it's not on TV anymore.  My friends won't play the "Friends Scene-it" game with me anymore.  I know too much.  It's useless knowledge really....

17.  I was captain of my college dance team.  Go Muskies!! 

Alright...geez..that was tough.  Anyway, now I have to tag people to do this too.  I'm supposed to tag 17 people.  Respond in my comments or on your own facebook/blog page.   For now I'll tag:

1.  Kristin Steel (I don't think you've done this yet..)
2.  Missi--I'm interested to know yours
3.  Darlene--I'm pretty sure you read this regularly
4.  Kelbal--whatever will I call you after April?  KelPed just doesn't have the same ring to it
5.  Grant
6.  Kray-even though I know you won't do it...maybe you'll surprise me
7.  Danny Smoker

Anyone else who wants to play...feel free!

I love that you can get food aversions from other people's sickness- that cracks me up! And I know- I have been tagged 17 times I think but I am not sure I can come up with 17 things about myself. I know my friends and family could cause back when we had to do 7 weird things they all came up with a ton...hmmm, what does that tell you?
