25 Things

I have become addicted to gossip magazines since I started treatments for my cancer. They are my guilty pleasure, and my escape during tedious hours at the hospital. One of my favorite parts of US Weekly magazine is the 25 Things You Don't Know About Me section. Since I'm most likely never going to be famous, and asked to make a list for US Weekly. I thought I would do one for fun. You may or may not be surprised. :)
1. I LOVE guacamole! I could eat it everyday.
2. Most people know that I have been a HUGE fan of Bruce Willis my entire life, but most of you may not know that I have the same love for Jeremy Irons.
3. I am terrified of silence. I can not be home without the TV, or music on.
4. Along those same lines, I cannot fall asleep without the TV on.
5. I have a serious addiction to scented candles. My husband deters me from the candle aisle every time we go to Target. Usually unsuccessfully...ha!
6. My favorite kitchen item is tiny bowls. Don't ask me why, but I adore them.
7. I am absolutely horrified by puppets and marionettes. They totally freak me out.
8. I could watch the Bravo network all day and night. I can't get enough of those crazy housewives!
9. In my mind, my puppies can do no wrong. They get away with everything! Haha
10. Earwax grosses me out. I clean my ears daily, sometimes twice a day.
11. I mostly listen to country music, but it's no surprise to find some Oldies, Pop, Rock, Classics, and even some Master P on my IPod.
12. I firmly believe that using different hair products, face products, soaps and lotions everyday provide better benefits for all.
13. I always have a fully made bed with mattress pad, fitted sheet, flat sheet, comforter and blankets, but I only sleep under a blanket. I prefer to sleep on top of them to provide a pillowy cloud of comfort.
14. I change my pillowcases nightly because I believe it is better for my skin and hair. I'm also a germ-a-phob.
15. I have had over 100 surgeries and procedures done since 2003.
16. I didn't get my ears pierced until I was a senior in high school.
17. I have had my tongue and lip pierced.
18. I currently have 7 tattoos. I'm sure I will get more in the future.
19. I have a lot of anxiety issues. I get most anxious in the car.
20. Even though I have extreme anxiety in the car, I have driven across the country roughly 6 times.
21. I am a clean freak, but I despise cleaning floors.
22. I find trees fascinating. I collect pictures of them. They are amazingly beautiful, and I love that they are all different even if they are the same type.
23. I hate having my picture taken, but I was all about the spotlight on my wedding day.
24. I have the MOST incredible husband, family and best friend anyone could ask for.
25. I have written 3 novels, 2 children's books and numerous poems, but I am crazy scared to get them published. That was harder than I thought it would be, but it was fun! Thanks for reading. I hope you learned something you didn't know about me!
