Escaped the purse tagging, got caught on the book taggings - but I couldn't tell my beautiful daughter in law (mother of my beautiful grandson) no on the "List of 10 things you might not know about me" so just in case you wonder why I am like I am....
1. I hate tomatoes - they were a mistake in the Garden of Eden - I think Eve ate a tomato and not an apple - because a tomato would have caused the kind of problems that no apple could.
2. I am addicted to the 'Radio from Hell' show on X96. I actually quote them more than I should. I agree with most of their fetishes.
3. I don't want Obama, Hillary, or McCain. I want Indiana Jones. Do you realize that spell check doesn't even acknowledge Obama as a word? Why would I acknowledge him as a President? MY LAST NAME IS HILLARY why would I want that kind of torture for the next 4 years? AND - the other guy is just freakin' old!! (Kind of reminds me of the old movie "Temple of Doom" and we're all in it!) Indiana - come out of Disneyland and SAVE US!
3a. I had Dan Jones the pollster as my Political Science professer at Utah State. Didn't like him then - can't stand it when he's on TV now.
4. I was ran over by a Jeep when I was a little girl and ran over by a boat propeller - yes, attached to the boat, as an adult. I avoid going under planes and trains.
4a. Because of the boating accident - I have no feeling on the right half of my jaw, or my middle, ring, and pinkie fingers on my left hand. (So if I flip you off on the freeway, it's because I cannot control that middle finger OR maybe you really did do something to annoy me.)
5. I am afraid of the dark, scary movies, and mice that jump out at you in the dark during scary movies.
5a. I love to see small mice bodies snapped in half in mousetraps - but not in the dark.
6. I absolutely loved my Kindergarden teacher - Mrs. Horgesheimer, she was only as tall as all of the Kindergardeners! I had a crush on my 4th grade teacher Mr. Peterson because he played the guitar. I admired my College Prep English teacher in High School - his name was Mr. Pate - I just knew that his first name was Consta.
7. I actually got a 4.0 in High School, was Student Body Secretary, and achieved All American Status and Athlete of the Year in 3 sports. Then during the summer I played for the Budweiser softball team and my mom wouldn't wash my uniform shirt. (I never wore it to church - I promise!)
7a. My athletic pictures were hot. My high school dance pictures would scare the flies off of a gut wagon. Let me post one after I receive permission from my poor dates that actually had to keep one of them for.... probably just for their children to laugh their butts off 30 years later....
8. I married a California boy - he had to come all the way to Utah to find me. So the Beach Boys song was a fake "I wish they all could beat California Girls...." Bla Bla Bla - bring it on sister.....I got one of your 'Best in States"!
8a. I will have been married to Del for 25 years on April 22! (22 was my favorite jersey number in sports - sorry honey - I didn't know if you thought that was just a special day or .... something else)
9. I love to laugh. I think a good - can't breath, tears streaming down your face, almost peeing your pants, ugly purple lips from no cirrculation kind of laugh is one of the most healthy things you can do every day. Then have a Coke from McDonalds and you've got it made. Good times.
9a. My mom gave me funny genes. She thought I wanted Fun Jeans - that was the 'pre-hearing aids' era.
10. I always fill up a baggie of dirt from my father's garden in Mendon and bring it to my garden and sprinkle it out over the ground every year as a ritual token. One day - I'll have all of his dirt here in my yard. I have enjoyed many a morning in church when I look down at my hands and my fingernails are dark with dirt - evidence of a great day in the garden on Saturday - and that I should probably wash my hands better next time.
10a. When I was a little girl I had to cut down and burn the weeds that grew wild along our fence line in Mendon. Our family did this for years and those pesty plants would come back bigger and taller the next year. Then the USU Agricultural Department along with the Logan City Police Department came and said that Mendon was actually a natural place for marijuana to grow wild, they had a good laugh at us and then they dug them up. I SWEAR WE HAD NO IDEA! I do recall that after we would burn them down, we did have killer hot dog roasts with marshmallows and well, practically everything we could find in the fridge to eat.....brownies, chips, peanut butter... no I'm NOT telling you my address and NO we were not charged with anything.
Ok - there are a million more mysteries about me - but most of you are not old enough to hear them so I'll save them for later. I'm tagging Eric, Erin (Masons Mom) & Mandy M. There are some secrets I need to know about you three....Thanks Bethany!
