"What it takes, Who I am, Where I've been..."

I decided to start a new blog because of the thriving success of my last one...oh wait. Really, I never had anything to write so it didn't work out so well for me. Not that that means I have anything in particular to write about this time, but everyone else has one...I'm jealous. I wanna be cool, too.
Melinda posted her 100 things, so I decided to do one and kick-start my blog with it. Heaven knows it took me forever to write the darn list, I might as well have somewhere to post it.
...Ahem...
100 Things you never asked to know, by me:

  1. I feel more comfortable wearing punk clothes in a dressy atmosphere than I do wearing dressy clothes in a punk atmosphere.
  2. The sound of fingernails being clipped grosses me out.
  3. I don't like Holidays.
  4. Whenever I see hippies and tshirts supporting "going Green", I always wanna be like that, but I don't have the drive to put the effort into it.
  5. I rarely remember my dreams, but when I do, they're always nightmares. Like my teeth all falling out.
  6. I am fascinated with stars. That being said, I could probably only point out one constellation.
  7. Growing up, my favorite color was pink.
  8. Not far into my teens I stopped having favorite anythings. Favorites are too permanent, and changing your favorite is flaky.
  9. Now, my 'favorite' color changes with my mood and with the day.
  10. When someone yells at me...I cry.
  11. Or when I'm really angry.
  12. But rarely when I'm actually sad.
  13. I avoid confrontation like the plague.
  14. I would take more offense in being called a poseur than pretty much any other name.
  15. I am superstitious. I throw salt over my shoulder if it spills, wish on 11:11, can't end things on the number 13, and don't cross black cats.
  16. I may look thin, but I am so out of shape I get winded walking up to my
    fourth floor apartment.
  17. I always tell myself I'd work out if someone would go with me.
  18. I'm a little OCD with always knowing what time it is.
  19. Speaking of OCD...My clothes are always organized and separated by color.
  20. One time I was in a rush to get to school and my shoe felt funny...so I took it off and shook it out and a frog fell out.
  21. I'm almost always freezing. Anything under 72 degrees and I shiver...
  22. I hate the cold with a passion.
  23. I'm addicted to my peppermint chapstick...it's like eating a candy cane when I put it on. I don't leave home without it.
  24. I am a meatatarian...anti-veggite. Green stuff is for my pet turtle, not for me. I even feel bad making him eat it.
  25. I use an average of about 4,000-5,000 texts a month, but use less than 400 minutes.
  26. Sometimes I say rude things to strangers in my head.
  27. My jeans have to touch the floor. I have to have a full-length mirror so I can see how they look over my shoes...if they don't hit the floor, I change.
  28. I have a few pairs of shoes but lots of flip flops.
  29. I wear my flip flops in the winter if I can help it. My feet don't like being trapped.
  30. I am a pretty nosy person, but just for myself. Not to spread things around.
  31. One of my pet peeves is bad spelling...If I don't know how to spell something, I will look it up.
  32. No matter how much sleep I get, I have chronic dark circles under my eyes.
  33. In high school one of my teachers pointed out my circles in the middle of class and I was horrified.
  34. When I was little I used to pour as much sugar as I could fit in my mouth and wait for it to dissolve on my tongue.
  35. I still love sugar.
  36. I don't have very many girls as friends...I've always preferred guys.
  37. That's going to be sad when I want to have a bridal shower.
  38. I love to organize. I could sort through things and organize them all day.
  39. I can have approximately two bites of a banana, jello, or pudding...then the texture makes me gag.
  40. I am completely terrified of earwigs.
  41. When I was little I loathed playing "the farmer in the dell" because I was always terrified of ending up as the cheese standing alone in the middle.
  42. This year, my hair has been Pink, Purple, Black, Dirty Blonde, Dark Red and all shades of Brown.
  43. I can raise my left eyebrow, and do so frequently, but not my right independently.
  44. I hate the sound of my voice when I hear it played back, so I never have an answering message of me on my phone. Sometimes it's a song...right now it's just an automated voice.
  45. I also rarely leave messages on other people's machines.
  46. I like to drive really fast with the windows down and the music turned up.
  47. I almost never say "I love you." I don't know why.
  48. When I set an alarm, it's always on an off time...like 7:24. I've done that ever since I first set an alarm.
  49. One of my legs is shorter than the other. My Dad always tells me I should grow them the same.
  50. I can't watch unrealistic movies without making fun of them the whole time.
  51. I am terrified of sea creatures....but I love The Little Mermaid.
  52. The guy who tried to give me my first kiss ended up in prison a year or so later for accomplice to murder. I didn't kiss anyone for a long time.

  54. In one of them we rolled an SUV on the freeway.
  55. I've also rolled at least 2 ATVs and 1 snowmobile on top of me while riding.
  56. One of my pet peeves is people chewing with their mouth open. Especially gum because it goes on and on...
  57. I hate slow Internet. If it's that slow, it's just not worth getting on.
  58. When I was little, part of my bangs always fell in my eyes. So I cut them off.
  59. When my mom questioned me about it I tried to play it off, but somehow she saw right through me.
  60. In college, my roommate and I took some street signs that were lying on the road and put them up in our apartment.
  61. The cops showed up the next day and busted us and took them away.
  62. I have to sleep with something covering me...If it's really hot, I'll just stick one leg out of the covers while I sleep.
  63. I make up songs a lot while I'm doing things and sing them to anyone around.
  64. I smell everything.
  65. Books are my favorite smell.
  66. Erasers might be a close second.
  67. I think 90% of feeling better after taking medicine is psychological.
  68. I've never been able to whistle, and I'm totally jealous of people who can. I think they take it for granted.
  69. I love the South. I love it when people say "fixin' to..." and I always mean to pick up on it, but forget.
  70. I love folding laundry fresh out of the dryer.
  71. I don't cook. When my Mom would ask me what I'm going to do about that when I'm married, I always told her I was going to marry a chef.
  72. I use songs to express my feelings.
  73. I love to drive.
  74. I love Florida rain...it rains so hard, and it's still warm outside.
  75. I people watch all the time. Sometimes I get really distracted doing it.
  76. I like playing video games if I feel like I'll be able to master it eventually..and if there is some sort of story to it to keep me interested.
  77. I have a turtle named Michelangelo, and he's the best pet I could have.
  78. I dressed him up as a ladybug (boybug) for Halloween.
  79. My favorite accessories are belt buckles.
  80. I will probably always refer to Florida as "Home"...I get bored being anywhere else for too long.
  81. I've started introducing myself to people as "Katrina...like the Hurricane" because they always make the comment anyway.
  82. I am addicted to The Outback Steakhouse. Outback Special cooked medium well
    with a half order of cheese fries, garlic mashed potatoes, and a spotted dog with the oreos and the fudge, no whipped cream no cherry, please.
  83. I have a pink laptop named "Mingo."

  92. The first CD I ever owned was "ABBA"
  93. I will tear up during a sad movie and fake it like I'm not.
  94. I won my XBOX in a Tetris competition...but I'm really not that good at XBOX tetris. I prefer Old School.

  97. I can't leave my room without making my bed in the morning.
  98. I weighed 10 pounds when I was born.
  99. I hate making decisions, but once I decide I want something, I am very stubborn about it.
