My pal Vanessa over at Little Gray Pixel linked up to her friend Deanna to join in on a "confessional" series that highlights things you might not know about her. It sounded like some fun, so I decided to do it today. I realize it's been a very long time since I blogged, so I'm also including a snap of my Halloween costume (I went as Jacqueline Kennedy).
So, without further ado, here goes!
(1) I am absolutely terrified of toasters. I always fear that they will spontaneously catch on fire and burn down my house. For years, I wouldn't allow Shawn to have one in the house. I finally caved and let him have a toaster oven, but it has to be immediately cleaned and unplugged after every use, and stored out of sight. I also unplug people's toasters when I go to their houses.
(2) After years of not having a favorite color, I finally realized that the color I truly love is not green (which I had thought was my favorite color), but orange. I can't get enough of it.
(3) I don't have many memories of my early childhood.
(4) I took dance lessons from the time I was 8 until the time I was 20. My favorite was tap dancing. I have a VHS tape of my routine to "Tequila." I believe my mother still has my original costume.
(5) Every single day, I miss my girlfriends in Ohio and Illinois because they are such beautiful, wonderful, smart, sassy, educated, erudite, candid, dauntless women.
(6) No matter how bad a day is, looking at a penguin always makes me smile.
(7) My car has over 126,000 miles on it and will be 10 years old this year. I don't think I will ever sell it; it's a 2002 Pontiac Firebird.
(8) Shawn and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary this month and decided that for our 10th, we're going to take a month-long trip to visit New Zealand, Dubai and London. The London leg will be a repeat of where we spent our honeymoon.
(9) Reading is my favorite pastime. I'm constantly reading something. I just finished reading the first two books in the young adult Mortal Instruments series, and up next is "Chasing Aphrodite: The Hunt for Looted Antiquities at the World's Richest Museum" by Jason Felch and Ralph Frammolino.
(10) When it comes to salty vs. sweet, I definitely come down on the side of salty.

Happy New Year! I hope you have a wonderful evening. I also loved the Chasing Aphrodite book, I couldn't put it down.
