one hundred and one things...part one

i accepted amy's 101 things challenge. i gave up after 22...her dedication, some might call it addiction, to blogging is unparalleled. here is my best attempt. nothing too insightful, just random trivia.

1. I hold face cards upside down when I play games.
2. I am blind in one eye.
3. I dated six guys named Ryan before I found my husband…named Ryan.
4. I am a grazer.
5. On the average day I eat more than Ryan…he is 6’4” and weighs 200++++
6. I don’t know what I would do without paper plates. I must go through a Costco 250 pack every month.
7. I never read the manuals to anything I own or buy.
8. I wear a bra to bed. I was recently told that this causes breast cancer{?}…so I might stop.
9. I brush my teeth in the shower.
10. I have been told I make really good oatmeal.
11. I believe that a single guy and a single girl can be just friends.
12. I have watched this old house every Saturday since I was about 12…long before the flipping and trading-spaces trend hit. Norm Abram is my hero.
13. In the past three years, ryan + I have seen about three movies per year in the theater…or nine for those of you who are bad at math.
14. I have my master’s degree in accounting/tax.
15. I never wear my wedding ring because it gives me a rash. Hopefully this will change when I get a platinum upgrade in 2010…
16. I hate public speaking and I dread teaching in R.S. every month.
17. For me, doing laundry w/o fabric softener just doesn’t cut it.
18. I often get tongue-tied, forget, or jumble words. Mclayne truthfully speaks better than I do.
19. I am a perfectionist…at one time I even used a folding board like they have in stores. I have retired in until my kids can do it or they move out.
20. I usually clean our shower while I take a shower.
21. I have really light eyelashes and eyebrows and every so often, usually for special occasions, I have them dyed. Ryan calls me groucho for the next three days.
22. At least once a week i walk to the park, library, and sonic with mclayne. {cole comes too}

Good work Scharee. It really did take a long time for me to come up with things. So, I will be waiting for the rest of your list!
And I can't believe you used to fold your clothes like that. You would die if you saw my folding skills!

Funny list - I didn't know a lot of those things about you. I agree ~ 101 items seems impossible. The 6+ Ryans made me laugh! I swear I saw Ryan Birks (sp?) at Fred Meyer in Bountiful - he kept looking at me and I was like, is that him? I can seriously only think of 2 guys you dated that weren't named Ryan.
