15 Things About Me

I have decided to try to participate in Belinda's Blog Every Day in May Challenge.  Today we are supposed to introduce ourselves and since I am totally a list person, that is how I'm going to do this.  So here are 15 facts about me.

1.  I love Christmas movies and will watch them year round.  My favorites are Dear Santa, Christmas Kiss, Holiday Engagement ... and a bunch more that I can't think of right now.  Anyone who looks at my Netflix account would probably think I'm completely crazy - crazy chick watching Christmas movies in June.

2. I like to be alone.  As weird as it sounds I prefer shopping alone, I like eating alone so I can read, I live driving alone, and going to the movies alone.  This can definitely be a stressor for me and Josh because he is such a social person.  It's something we're always working on.

3.  I make lists for EVERYTHING.  The amount of notebooks I have that are filled with lists is insane.  And it drives Josh insane.

4.  I used to never stop reading a book no matter how much I hated it, but I've started growing out of that.  It started with Interview with A Vampire.  I hated that book and couldn't even force myself to read the last 100 pages. 

5.  I am a serious daydreamer.  My ability to stare into space for up to about an hour seriously amazes people. 

6. I love Instagram!  Facebook lately seems to be full of useless crap and people whining.  But Instagram is a simple photo and caption which I really like.  (I am also not a big fan of Twitter).

7.  One of my biggest "pet peeves" is being late.  I am one of those people who is annoyingly on time for everything. 

8.  I hate feet!  My own are fine but I cant have anyone elses near me.  I also really hate when people put their feet on my pillow.  This isn't such a big thing now as it was when I was a kid and friends would come over and sit on my bed. 

9.  I eat about 80% Organic.  I feel like the food tastes better and is usually more healthy.  Also, check on the expiration date on regular milk vs Organic - Organic lasts much longer which is great for someone like me who doesn't go through a lot of milk. 

10.  I only buy cruelty-free products.  I have an app called cruelty cutter and it is awesome.  You just scan any product and it'll tell you if it is cruelty free or not!

11.  I am one of those intense readers who will completely block out everything thing else.  People have to either touch me or make a really loud noise to snap me out of it.  I was actually at an old job on break and someone was trying to get my attention by yelling my name and I didn't hear a thing.  She ended up throwing an apron at me to get my attention.  I have to be careful not to get to that point at my current job.

12.  I love all animals but I am definitely more of a horse and dog person.

13.  I don't mind doing laundry but I hate folding and putting away my clothes.  I have 3 baskets full of clean clothes sitting in our bedroom right now. 

14. I am mildly obsessed with Tattoos.  I currently have 4 and have plans for 3 to 4 more.  I am also obsessed with watercolor tattoos and I am so glad I found an amazing artist who does a great job with them.  I would also love to get my lip pierced but I'm pretty sure my job would have a shit fit.

15. Because I can't think of another thing to add, I'll state the obvious - I love to travel!  It's one of the things I daydream about often.  As I get closer and closer to having some of my student loans paid off, I get more and more excited about being able to travel more!   I actually have a few trips in the works now.
