This is gonna be a hard one. Six things about myself- it was much easier to talk about my hubby :) Here we go, I don't want to let you down Ang.

Some people don't know this about me but I am proud to say that I use to be a full-on Hippie! That's right, I did the whole no showering, vegan, wanted dread locks badly- thing. I really enjoyed it too! I still think there is a bit of hippie in me and that is not so bad right? There is nothing wrong with wanting love and peace; and a little BO never hurt anybody :) My Hippie tendencies still come out every once in a while but don't worry I now bathe on a regular basis. I have this dream of living in Africa with a tribe or living completely off the land for a couple of months. James has not agreed to any of these things yet, but I am working on him. I should add that I am now a recovering vegetarian and eat chicken quite often. James keeps hoping I will cook a juicy steak one of these days....but I don't know about that. Peace out!

I love to dance! Maybe some of you already knew that...but it has been a good while since I have gotten my groove on and I miss it terribly. I started dancing when I was about 3 years old and have been a dancing fool ever since. I grew up doing Modern Dance (yes, sometimes we danced as though we were leaves falling from a tree) But I loved it! It was the perfect way for me to express myself, especially since I was a little shy growing up. I danced with CDT up until I graduated High School and even traveled to Finland to dance in a International Conference. I was on the Drill team for 2 years in High School. GO BHS!! I have found it is a lot harder to dance now that I am older and Prego, but I have been taking Hip Hop classes at my gym. When I grow up (no I am not grown up yet) I would love to own a dance studio and teach dance. There is something magical about dance and it will always be a passion of mine- even if the only dancing I do is in the shower.

I am very paranoid. In fact, it is a great way for James to tease me. I thank my Mom for my paranoia (she was a worry wart- but just b/c she loves us so much) The second I get in my car or walk in the door the first thing I do is lock the door behind me. I always lock James in the car when I get out first- Ha ha! I also love to obsess over little things like James shutting the garage when he leaves in the morning. He forgot to once and ever since then I have been calling him after he leaves to make sure he really shut it- it has been about 2 months. Poor guy. I am also very strict with my food labels. I like to throw them out BEFORE they reach the expiration date. James says it is more of a guideline and will eat it a couple days past- YUCK!! Can you believe that kind of behavior from a Microbiology major??

When I was a little girl I wanted to be a Maid when I grew up. Crazy huh? Don't tell my hubby- he will be wondering what happened to that idea and why our house is so messy. I guess I wouldn't have been to good at it. When I was a little girl I loved to empty out all the cupboards and clean and organize them, along with the fridge...What was I thinking? Don't worry I have since outgrown that desire and have not cleaned the fridge since.

In High School I begged my mom to get me a skateboard. She finally gave in (bless her heart) and I got my very own one. It was wicked!! I had several skate shoes b/c they were necessary to perform the tricks appropriately and plus they were super cool. I had some guy friends that I would go skate with and I got pretty decent. I could Alie a box and even go down some mini ramps. Oh did I mention I had a rad orange helmet- my mom was always looking out for me. I thought I was pretty cool hangin with the guys. It was a lot of fun and I never got myself killed so that is a bonus. I carried this desire with me into the college years and even got a couple of girlfriends into it. We snuck into a skate park at like midnight and had a blast falling on our faces. Unfortunately I have not rocked the skateboard for a couple of years- but don't worry I intend to pick it up again when our little boy starts walking!!! Skate or Die!!

Ha ha I just thought of this and had to mention it. It is pretty funny. It kinda goes along with the whole Hippie thing. I forgot to mention that every time I saw litter no matter what- I would pick it up. Even if it meant pulling over the car and getting out!!It gets better....every time I saw a dead animal or accidentally hit a bug on my windshield I would say a little prayer for the poor thing. I was praying quite often especially on long road trips. I still love animals but I am not quite that extreme.

Hopefully you have learned some random and interesting facts about me. That was fun!! I tag Ali, Ellen, and Ariel. Get to it girls!!
