I have nothing to post, so I thought I'd tell you 10 things about me that you may not know. But if you read my list, you have to leave me 10 things (ok, I'll let you do 5) about you in the comments. Just for fun.
1. Two of my favorite things in the world are clean sheets and backrubs.
2. It's taken me nearly 38 years and some friends who are 5'9" to be ok with being tall.
3. I am an obsessive ironer. I even iron the kids' clothes. I don't iron my sheets or my undies, but pretty much everything else is game. Part of the problem is that I don't get the clothes out of the dryer and/or laundry basket before they wrinkle.
4. I hate going to movies. They're too loud, my feet stick to the floor, and I hate listening to other people eat popcorn. Eew.
5. I color my hair. I mean I color my hair. Like with $6 box of Garnier Nutrisse. I picked that brand because I like Sarah Jessica Parker who does the commercials.
6. Chaos makes me crazy. As a result, I'm pretty organized and probably drive people crazy with my need to plan ahead.
7. I can't stand being the center of attention...just don't like everyone looking at me.
8. I decorate my house for Christmas the day after Thanksgiving.
9. I never get bored. Ever.
10. I have serious issues with hair that is unattached to a body.
Alrighty. If you got to #10, let's hear it. Get your list going. Chop, chop.
