100 Things About Me

1. I've been married for 5 years.

3. Mondo gave me the "7 year test" before he proposed.

4. We've been together for 12 years.

5. We only broke up once for 24 hours during that 12 years.

6. I think that 12 years should be added onto our marriage years.

7. I have 2 dogs.

8. One has cancer but you'd never know it.

9. I have a gourami fish that won't die.

10. I had a betta named DJ (short for death junior) in college who lived for 4 years.

11. The betta who preceded him only lived for 3 days (hence the name "death").

12. Mondo just said I was gay for making this list.

13. I call Mondo "metro"...some people know why.

14. I could probably list 100 things just about Mondo.

15. I love to dip Oreos in milk until they're so soggy they're falling apart.

16. I love to dip bologna and miracle whip sandwiches in coke....mmmmmm.

17. I've had a coke float or chocolate malt almost every night since I got pregnant.

18. That's probably why I've already gained 15 pounds.

19. I lost 13 pounds right before I got pregnant.

20. This blog autosaves my draft every minute.

21. My neighbor has the most annoying dog named Chopper.

22. He barks non-stop every day.

23. Gracie barks at him because she doesn't know he weighs about 100 more pounds than her.

24. I live 3 minutes from my parents.

25. I never thought I would want to do that.

26. I live down the street from my 2 friends that I used to live down the street from when I was a child.

27. My mother is an awesome cook.

28. I hate cooking and will eat fast food whenever possible.

29. I can't sleep without earplugs.

30. Mondo and I were asked by a friend if we were swingers.

31. We're not, by the way.

32. I'm obsessed with staying updated on people's blogs.

33. I check my email at least 10 times a day.

34. There's absolutely no reason to check it that often.

35. I'm now into ordering things online.

36. I've never ordered anything off of ebay.

37. I'm so sad that Ethan is old enough to start preschool.

38. But I look forward to the alone time I'll have with Caleb.

39. My dream car is a minivan.

40. That made me sound really old.

41. In my elemetary school in Waxahachie, every classroom had a "keeva".

42. I bet no one reading this knows what a "keeva" is.

43. I actually had a tan when I lived in Waxahachie.

44. No one probably believes that.

45. My first boyfriend was in 4th grade.

46. His name was Robert and he was a skater.

47. I used to throw my dolls in the deep end of the pool so I could rescue them and do CPR.

48. I still have a doll with a cast on it's leg that I made out of wet toilet paper.

49. I was a pretty smart doctor in elementary school.

50. I was destined to be a nurse.

51. I was in drill team in high school.

52. Mondo still makes fun of me for it.

57. Ethan can sing and dance to "Summer Lovin" and Grease Lightening".

58. He does it about 15 times a day.

59. I've got it on video.

60. I need to try and post that.

62. Most of you didn't want to know that.

63. I have to wear support hose.

64. But I usually don't.

65. I count my pregnancy in weeks, not months.

66. That confuses non-medical or non-pregnant people.

67. Today I am 23 weeks and 5 days pregnant.

68. 24 weeks is considered viability.

69. I think I'll deliver at 38 weeks.

70. That's probably wishful thinking.

71. I hate having freckles.

72. Mondo had a truck in high school named "Antique".

73. I guess that was about him, not me.

74. I drove a '92 blue Escort.

75. It really wasn't that old considering it was 1995 at the time.

76. I'm good at reading instructions and putting things together.

80. I have 5 packages of pictures to put in albums.

81. I'm determined to finish all baby things related to Ethan before Caleb comes.

82. Caleb's middle name is after Mondo's best friend (Scott).

83. If Caleb was a girl the name would have been Avery.

92. We're talking about sending our kids to Ft. Worth Christian (in NRH).

93. Isn't that ironic.

94. Caleb is kicking me right now.

95. That's awesome.

96. I get freaked if I don't feel him kick me every few hours.

97. I really should't since he only weighs about a pound and he does need his sleep.

98. I know way to much about babies not to be freaked about every little thing.

99. I recently got certified in Low Risk Neonatal Nursing.

100. Wow, this list was way too easy...I could go on all night!

Great list. You thought that was easy? Maybe you should have done 200 things. I don't think I learned anything new-I guess that's what happens when you've been friends this long!

You know, since you said you were obsessed with keeping up with blogs and all. I also check my email at least 10 times per day, and yes, it is to much! hehehe Thanks for the 100 list, it was fun!
