... yes, about me.
1) I went to the "district" level spelling bee in grade school. I messed up the word M-O-R-T-G-A-G-E. You see that "T" in there? Yeah, I left it out. Never forgot it again.
2) Not only do I still have my childhood Barbie House, Barbie Mountain Cabin and Barbie Tent Trailer, I have Lela's Barbie stuff, too. Sitting on the floor of my extra bedroom. Waiting to be sold on eBay or CraigsList. Anyone want to buy some Barbie stuff?
3) Lela and I, as kids, once lost an albino caterpillar in my house. We had named it Snowball before we lost it. We weren't allowed to bring the snakes we caught inside.
4) I like to dip french fries in chocolate milkshakes.
5) I hate asparagus.
6) I met my husband while living on Maui. I didn't want to date him. He was too nice. He flirted with me for 9 months before I finally gave in and agreed to let him make me dinner. He won.
7) I can actually take 3 hours to get ready in the morning when I allow it. (Yes, I can do it faster, too) I love to read the paper, drink my coffee, check email, check blogs... walk around procrastinating instead of drying my really-thick-takes-forever-to-dry-hair. Not great for feeling like I'm getting things done.
8) I have a girl crush on Kate Beckett from the show Castle. And a boy crush on LL Cool J on NCIS LA. Something about that grin when he's trying to be serious.
9) I believe that gut feelings and intuition are much more accurate than most people give them credit for.
10) I love crime shows. Castle. NCIS. NCIS LA. CSI. The Mentalist. Those I watch regularly. And I'll even catch reruns of Criminal Minds, Bones, whatever.

French Fries in chocolate milkshakes could quite possibly cure nearly everything. I think it may be some secret ancient Eastern medicine thingiemabobber treament doohickie....er..um...yeah. Sounds about right....
The Mentalist..... lesigh.....
I never, never, never ignore my gut instincts. They have prevented SERIOUS catastrophes from happening.
That's so funny about your albino caterpillar. I wonder if someone squished it!
I flit from thing to thing around my house and am easily distracted so I can kinda relate to your morning routine.
Wow, another person who dips french fries? I thought I was the only loon. Cool.
I was always an excellent speller. I remember getting knocked out in a first grade bee on the word 'answer'. Yeah, I left out the silent "w". In the eighth grade bee, I got canned on the word 'threshold'. Yepper, I added an extra "h" in there. Like you, both times I never forgot.
I agree with you about your gut and intuition. It's our built-in radar system.
I really enjoy The Mentalist as well.
I like asparagus though, but I rarely eat it because I hate how it makes your...well...pee reek.
Love it! Technically, it only takes me about 20 minutes to get ready in the morning, but if we include the computer time, I'm right up there at three hours too! Plus I have to keep stopping to help dress kiddos and all that!
ok, i may want to buy some of your Barbie stuff unless it's already gone/sold? but only things that are easy to ship (i.e. not too big). I'd happily pay for all of that...let me know, shoot me an email , ok?
