TAGGED AGAIN

ALLISON tagged me, so here are 5 more random/boring facts about myself:


1.
I LOOOOOVVVVE POTATOES:

I could eat potatoes pretty much every day. Mashed potatoes, French Fries, Baked Potatoes, Potato Casseroles....all so dang tasty.


2.
IM NOT SUPER GUNG HO ABOUT THE HOLIDAYS:
I used to go shopping the day after thanksgiving every year, but the last couple years I decided it really wasnt worth the stress to get the same sales you can get on regular days where there arent a ton of people around. I tend to save my shopping till last minute. Also, since i live in a small apartment, I dont have a christmas tree. Most of you probably think by reading this that I'm anti-christmas. I really do like christmas though. Im just not super gung ho about it RIGHT NOW since I dont have any kids and dont have a cute house to decorate. I'm sure I'll be more gung ho about it in the future though. AND, I do love spending time with family on Christmas, but I usually end up getting a migraine by about 3 or 4 pm on Christmas Day. Oh, and I LOVE white elephant gift exchanges.
I DOOOO love thanksgiving though. Its my favorite holiday of the year. I LOVE all the food and spending time with family and being lazy, and having paid time off work. Its pretty awesome.


3.
IM OBSESSED WITH JEWELRY
I love love love love love love love jewelry, and I ESPECIALLY love earrings. I recently bought an awesome earring rack that helps organize my earrings and keep them from getting all tangled up. It also helps to save space and organize them better so their not such a mess in my jewelry box. I seriously love this thing:




4.
IM A LITTLE TOO LITERAL SOMETIMES
Most of the time when people tell me a joke I don't get the punchline, and have to have people explain it to me. Or, when I'm watching a movie, I have to ask a ton of questions because I dont see past the surface of whats going on. Its difficult for me to enjoy mafia or CIA movies, because theres too much going on, and I have to ask a bunch of questions the whole way to really know whats going on.


5.
I HATE PUMPING GAS

It's not the actual pumping of the gas that I hate...its more like the fact that sometimes there's a bunch of creepos pumping gas next to me, and I feel like a gas station would be an opportune place for a psycho to grab someone and kidnap them. I also hate the fact that your standing next to a busy street with a bunch of cars driving by, and all the people driving by get to stare at you too.

thanks for tagging me. :| it may be a while before I respond! So, the first two years we were married we just set up a teeny tiny tree we borrowed from mom, cuz that's all we could fit in our apt. It was cute, you could do something like that! I do really like that earring organizer thing. I would LOVE to get something similar to hang all my necklaces on. I couln't find anything at any stores, so I made something using a picture frame, cork board, fabric, and these silver push pin things. It's not working exactly like I had hoped, but it's doing the job so far. And one more thing, you should live in Portland (or maybe it's the entire state of Oregon, I don't know). It's a law that you can't pump your own gas! A worker always pumps it for you. Nice!!
