Madness

1. Do you make New Year's resolutions? If so, what is your most important one? No, I don't.

2. Easter is coming. Many Christians give up something for Lent. Do you give something up for any reason (or season)? What is it this year? No, I don't. I'm not religious.

3. Do you watch the Super Bowl? If so, do you watch it with a group? If not, what do you do while the game is on? Anything special? No, I don't (3 for 3 here... LOL) It's just like any other day for me. I'll do whatever strikes my fancy at the time.

4. Would you miss Monday Madness if it stopped permanently? Is this a trick question? I find MM interesting.

5. Name at least one theme for MM questions. Share at least one question for that theme. I'm not good at making up memes... That's why I do MM.

6 Weird Things About Me

I've been tagged!! Lisa and Carol both tagged me.

The rules: Each player of this game starts with the "6 weird things about you." People who get tagged need to write in their blog of 6 weird things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names.

Here's my 6 Weird things:

1. When I can't sleep (which has been a LOT lately!), I visualize numbers in my mind and count backward, starting around 599. Being in the accounting field, you'd think I would've come up with that on my own but I didn't. A friend insisted that it worked. It does, too!

2. I love animals, but can't stand them licking my face. I think subconsciously it has something to do with being allergic to animal dander.

3. I have a "thing" about having my towels folded a certain way. I don't get mad if they're folded "wrong". I just re-fold them. Can you say OCD?!

4. I like sleep bundled up like a cocoon. I attribute it to my mother who bundled me up really tight when I was a baby.

5. When I'm under a lot of stress, I scratch my legs until I break skin. Most of the time I'm not even aware of it until the next day when it hurts. Sometimes it happens in my sleep, too.

6. My house looks "lived in" (i.e. messy) yet everything is organized. Go figure.

Probably more than anyone needs to know! Who to tag, who to tag?

How about: Barbara, Leeny, Erica, Kendra, Vicki, and Michelle.

Kicked to the Curb

*sigh* I think I’ve been kicked to the curb. I emailed D yesterday about mixed signals I was getting: the strong pursuit, the seemingly caring things he did, comments he’s made about being open to a relationship, and lately how he’s backed way off. I received a response last night: He told me how comfortable he’s been with me from the beginning, and how wonderful I’ve been. But then I got the “It’s not you, It’s Me" and “I thought I was ready for a relationship. I want a relationship, but I just don’t know if I’m ready anymore.”

I don’t know what’s worse: 1) the uncertainty of not knowing, or 2) the sadness of knowing.

Birthday 2007

Yesterday was my birthday. It wasn't anything special. I received TONS of emails and ecards from my online friends. I appreciated each and every one. Guess what my mother gave me? A pair of men's leather work gloves. I graciously thanked her, but in my mind I was thinking "What am I suppose to do with these?" I received text messages and phone calls from my siblings. One person at work wished me a happy birthday. The new guy? No phone call, no email, no text message, no nothing. Is it too much to expect birthday wishes from someone you've spent two months getting to know? My brother said it's a bunch of BS, and to get rid of him.

SBQ - First Happy Dance

Have you had a happy dance yet this year? If so, tell us about it! (Or just point to the entry that talks about it.) If not, when do youpredict it will be?

Yup. I've had my first happy dance already! It was the brass hummingbird bookmark that can be seen in my 1-7-07 blog entry. I'll be having another happy dance soon, so stay tuned!
