Six Unremarkable Things About Me

Got tagged from Miss Smarty Pants - so here goes.

1. I am a southpaw. In college, I did a report for speech class on lefties. Did you know that lefties die earlier deaths on average than righties? Hmmmm.

2. I secretly hope Dimples is a lefty. Not because I want her to die an early death, but because I think she looks so much like her daddy, I want her to have that lefty thing from me.

3. I have naturally curly hair. As a child I hated it, as an adult, I have learned to love and appreciate it. I don't color it, and I can straighten it (here in the desert there is barely any humidity so it looks good straight) without too much fuss. If I want to wear it curly, it only takes me a few minutes to style it. That part, I love.

4. I love the children's book "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day." Whenever I have one of those days, I tease my family and friends that I am going to move to Australia, just like Alexander wants to do in the book. My favorite line from the book is "I fell asleep with gum in my mouth and now there is gum in my hair."

5. I am 5'10" tall. When I was growing up, I could never find pants long enough for me. I always used to say they should make pants for women like they do for men, in waist size and leg lengths. Now that I am older, and they make pants in long lengths for women, I live in the desert where I wear skirts, shorts or Capri's 80% of the time. I was ahead of my time! :)

6. My life motto is "NO REGRETS!" I never want to look back at my life and regret something I did do, or I didn't do. I try and always use this as a measuring stick for what I do in life. Some days I am better than others at it.

All of the people that I know that blog have already done this so I don't have anyone to tag. If I were going to tag someone, I would tag CLOVER LOVER, and tell her it's time to get started on a blog and this would be a great first entry, and JJ's mom, who has another site, but it doesn't seem as user friendly as this one.

love to you all!

Nice play. I didn't know you wanted dimples to be a lefty. That would be cool. Her generation of our family needs a lefty.
