Things you might not know about me...

I actually found this really hard, coming up with things that people don't know about me. But I'll give it a try. If you already know this stuff I'm sorry. I guess I talk about myself too much...

1. I like to fake interview myself. Yes you read that right, like an interview that might happen say on the tonight show or something... I know it's extremely weird/dorky and I thought I'd grow out of it but here I am days before my 25th birthday and I still do it. I sit in front of the mirror and talk to myself... I don't know why but it's delightfully fun!

2. I really, really, really can't stand it when people are mad at me or don't like me for some reason. I spend a pretty good chunk of time trying to get people to like me. Not in a fake way. I'm always me but I would never want to offend people or be rude to them on purpose. Because of that if I DO feel like someone is angry with me it drives me crazy. I'm also not good at confronting them so I tend to just avoid them like the plague. (mature I know)

3. I complain every year about being the only one who really cooks Thanksgiving for my family but I really do love it. In fact it bothers me when people offer to do too much or try to take it away from me.

4. I have an obsession with finding the perfect baby names. That's why I say I have my names but then I end up changing them... I'm fairly sure it drives Nathan insane. I'm also truly afraid that I'll want to change my children's names after I've already named them.

5. My favorite Bible story growing up was always Daniel and the lion's den. And to this day if I hear a sermon about it it makes me INCREDIBLY happy!

6. I'm obsessed with the Elephant Man. (yes you read that correctly) Since the day I found out that he was an actual person for some reason that story has just really resonated with me and broke my heart in an odd way. I told my mom that I wished he was alive today so that I could be friends with him. Pretty much anyone who has a physical deformity breaks my heart especially if they're 100% normal mentally because how hard would it be to think, act and be a normal person who everyone treats like a freak. I can't explain it.... I just love the elephant man.

7. When I was in Jr. High I had a group of girls who called me the "trash girl" because after lunch they made me throw away their trash. And more than being mad at them I'm actually mad at myself for putting up with it.

8. I have a real, honest fascination with serial killers. I know that sounds crazy but I just find it so interesting trying to get inside their heads and what could possibly make someone be that twisted. This obsession scares Nathan and I'm fairly sure I've scared you now lol.

9. Mummies are my worst fear ever. I would much rather be locked in a room with 100 live snakes and spiders than in a room with one dead mummy. I have no idea why they freak me out so much but they really really do.

10. I would much rather load this dishwasher with dirty dishes than UNload the clean ones.

Ok I did it. :)
