there's something going around...

I stole this from Ericka, who stole it from Trance, who stole it from LA.

1. Copy this whole list into your journal.

2. Bold the things that you have in common with me.

3. Whatever you don't bold, replace with things about you. Take note, ALL 100 are about me, the bold ones I have in common with Ericka. You bold what you have in common with me then make up new things about YOU for the rest.

Please add a comment if you do it so that I can come read it!

01. I drink Diet Coke on the way to work in the mornings, without fail. I try not to drink more than three cans a day.

03.I like to read.

6. My mother and I have had more ups than downs.

07.There are some things I would possibly go back and change, but if I did, my whole life would be different. I�m not sure if I want that.

11. I like dogs.

12. I am married.

13. I've never been to Bermuda.

19. I want to travel (some of) the world.

20.I am SO not a morning person.

21. I often see the sun come up, as it is usually still dark when I leave for work. This is not by choice.

27. I am extremely creative.

28. I do not see much of my extended family, but not by choice. They're just too darn far away.

29. I am very much a perfectionist, to the point that it keeps me from even starting things for fear that I won't complete them to my standards.

30. I almost always finish a book once I start it, even if it�s bad. Getting better about not wasting my time these days and have chucked the occasional stinky book before grinding through to the end.

31. I have three pillows on my bed.

32. I love baby animals. Like who�s going to say, �Damn, kittens suck!�???

36. I'd like to have more money, but I'm pretty comfy where I am. I'd like to get my bills paid off!

37. I�ve voted once. It was for an independent candidate. In fact, I think I voted for Nader just to be annoying. I hate politics.

62. I generally try to do what's right, but have to confess that sometimes I take the easy way out of things.

63. I very rarely overreact about things at the time they happen. I tend to bury emotions and they dredge themselves up later.

69. I hardly ever attend concerts.

70. I've never smoked pot.

71. More often than not, all I wear is my watch and chain. Well, and clothes. I've tried to go to work naked, but for some reason Zach thinks it's a bad idea.

74. I have learned to say no.

75. I tend to get defensive when confronted.

77. I own sunglasses, but I have no idea where they are.

78. My bra and panties almost never match.

79. I always thought I loved the strong, silent type, but I married a guy who is very emotional and tender, and I adore him. There's a big difference between an ideal and the real thing.

80. I love my husband and family more than anything.

81. I don't own a vibrator. I'd like to get one, though.
