No particular order, mainly just as they pop into my noggin
1)
I have 2 kids, one boy & one girl
2)
I have been a single parent for most of my
parenting years
3)
I have been a parent for my entire adult life
4)
I am a proud native Texan
5)
I think Freedom of Speech should be protected
for all. You can’t choose who has it and who doesn’t.
6)
I believe in God and pray every single night
before I go to bed
7)
I think your religious beliefs are your personal
business. I won’t force mine on you and
you should not force yours on me.
8)
Religious freedom should apply to ALL, not just
ones that fit an agenda
9)
There are few things I think the federal
government should be involved in; less is more
10)
My favorite sport is hockey (total hockey junkie)
11)
My two favorite hockey teams are the Stars and
Flyers
12)
I’m not just a hockey mom, I am a goalie mom
(yes, there is a difference)
13)
I don’t want to watch ‘Sister Wives’ but I do…every
week and so does my daughter haha
14)
I have seen the movie and read the book ‘The
Outsiders’ so many times that I can still recite almost the entire first page
of the book and most of the movie
15)
I love the movie ‘Talladega Nights: The Legend
of Ricky Bobby’ but do not get the allure of NASCAR at all…well, unless there
is a crash and explosions…then I get it.
16)
I drink about a pitcher of ice tea every day
17)
I hate the taste of coffee
18)
I may be the only Texan who hates Dr. Pepper
19)
I use to blog anonymously and while doing so,
shared info about myself and my family that I have never told another human
being. It was nice to unload it but it still freaked me out a bit
20)
Aca-scuse me? I love the movie ‘Pitch Perfect’…duh,
who doesn’t?
21)
I have seen The Ramones live
22)
I have been to 8 countries not counting the US
23)
I have been to 48 of the 50 states
24)
One of the reasons I went into IT was because
someone told me I could not do it. I
make more than they do now. Bam!
25)
If you tell me I cannot do something (as in not
able to) I am going to do all I can to prove you wrong just for spite (see #24)
26)
I have been in IT for 16 years; 11 of those
years doing consulting (as of 2014)
27)
I love consulting because with each new project
you get new people, location, challenges, etc.
I like the change
28)
Sometimes I work too much
29)
One of my favorite things to do is hang out with
the kids and watch movies and hope they will continue to do this for many
years. As they get older and get their
own families, we’ll just expand the gathering
30)
I am far more critical of myself than anyone
could ever be
31)
I probably watch too much of the Investigation
Discovery channel
32)
I like to watch ‘Gone With The Wind’ because it
reminds me of my nana, mom and sister
33)
My hair has a mind of its own. Sometimes we agree, sometimes we don’t
34)
I have flown a plane (if you know me, this
should scare you)
35)
I do not play matchmaker very often but I have a
100% success rate
36)
It took me well into my 30s before I was truly
comfortable with who I am
37)
I support the 2nd amendment (duh,
Texan.)
38)
I am a monthly supporter of the ASPCA
39)
I don’t think sexual orientation is a choice
40)
I don’t want to see big public displays of
affection from anyone regardless of color, gender, etc.
41)
I support same sex marriage. Why deny anyone the joy of divorce?
42)
I think discriminating against and/or treating
any human different simply based on things they have no control over (race,
gender, sexual orientation, etc) is dumb.
Like/dislike someone for who they are, what they are about and/or their
character…not stupid crap they have no control over. There are crappy people of every flavor,
nobody has the market share on being a douchebag. Well…haha just kidding
43)
I have mastered something that is very difficult
for most people and I’m quite proud of it – I do not speak out of anger. I may walk away, may string together an
impressive group of bad words and I may even scream into a pillow but I can
tell you that 99.99% of the time I do not speak out of anger because I don’t want
to regret something dumb simply due to lack of self control
44)
I say what I mean and mean what I say. Everyone should try it. Remember, ripping the band-aid off quickly
may hurt at first but then it is over.
Slowly tearing it off prolongs the pain unnecessarily
45)
I’m only on #45? Good grief this is difficult… ok,
#45 - I don’t like onions
46)
The smell of raw onions makes me gag
47)
I swear way too much
48)
I have family members who think I am a snob
*yawn*

conspiracy theories

gunman”
51)
I have been to Lee Harvey Oswald’s gravesite…alleged
gravesite, that is
52)
I do not like ketchup. Gross.
53)
I love my dog more than most people
54)
I believe in ghosts
55)
I believe in the possibility of life beyond this
one small rock that revolves around the sun
56)
One of the best concerts I’ve ever seen was
Stevie Wonder
57)
I want to go to Iceland…err I will go to Iceland
some day
58)
By nature I am introverted but my job requires
me to be extroverted.
59)
I often want to be extroverted but at my core, I
am not.
60)
I am terrible about doing crap like getting my
oil changed, renewing registration, inspection, etc…
61)

ago #epicfail
62)
It makes me laugh every time I hashtag #hashtag!
63)

was needed – an engine caught fire. A couple of hours later, we all re-boarded
the same plane and finished the journey to DFW.

not need almost 3 hours to tell that story

72)
I strive to be the parent(s) I did not have
73)
I fought e-readers for a long time…then I got a
Kindle Fire…greatest thing ever!
74)
I am in favor of capital punishment, some crimes
are “game over” offenses
75)
One of my favorite quotes is: whether you think
you can or whether you think you can’t, you are right
76)
I have to force myself to leave the house
sometimes
77)
I love going to aquariums
78)
I believe in Karma 100%
79)
I don’t like people in my personal space unless
they have been clearly invited
80)
I have been called an instigator several times
over the years haha
81)
I am fluent in sarcasm
82)
If you don’t “get” sarcasm, I’m not gonna “get”
you
83)
I think we get messages when we need them, it is
up to us to pay attention
84)
I want to skydive some day
85)
I am super bummed out that I cannot ride roller
coasters anymore due to a neck injury
86)
I spent my 30th bday in Cancun with a
great friend of mine and it was probably one of the most fun bdays I’ve ever
had

never had one thrown for me…that whole anti-social thing likely comes into play
here

have them

I need to embrace life more and not feel guilty
about “me time”

I need a make-over but not sure how to get that
started

I did not know unconditional love until I had
kids
94)
Anxiety sometimes rears its ugly head at very
inconvenient times

Hipsters amuse me
96)
omg…96..so close…yet so far. Alright, #96… I could eat Mexican food every
day. Every. Single. Day.
97)
I want to be crafty and make cool stuff but… I’m
not and I don’t
98)
I hate to cook but when I do cook, it usually
comes out pretty good
99)
I am not just proud to be a Texan, I am proud to
be Southern
100) Yes, I am a Republican who is not racist or
homophobic nor do I want to force any beliefs on anyone AND supports same-sex
marriage We do exist. Don’t assume, folks. Ass-u-me, you know the
drill.
DONE!!
