The big 2-5 (read: 30.)

To honor my many moons here on Earth, I present a list of 25 (un)interesting facts about me:

1. If I was 25, I would’ve graduated at the ripe old age of 14.
2. I was genius enough to have graduated at 14, but I didn’t want to make my peers feel inadequate.
3. I still listen to The Cure.
4. I love Elvis’ voice.
5. I don’t want to get old…..really it’s not the getting old; it’s the looking old part I don’t want.
6. I love Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs…….good thing they’re only available once a year!
7. I have hypothesized that mini bite-size snickers are the perfect proportion of chocolate to filling, yyyuuumm (as are the RPBEggs mentioned above.)
8. I used to wear size 40 pants, but I wasn’t fat.
9. I am a closet B-girl.
10. I love my husband – 8 years down, 80 more to go.
11. I actually hope I don’t live past 80….or whenever my teeth start to fall out.
12. I am a car singer…..in my head I can sing with the best of them!
13. I used to wear pigtails…..as a teenager
14. I thought I was so punk cool….or is that cool punk??
15. Now I know I was just a punk.
16. I love to use the word punk….it’s so versatile.
17. I also love to use “air quotes” and ……. to try and give myself an electronic voice.
18. I am listening to “Sweet Caroline”……everybody sing with me: Hand…..touching hand…..reaching out……touching me……touching you…………
19. I will probably delete that song off my playlist by tomorrow.
20. I love to read books.
21. I love to eat birthday cake.
22. I miss my Mom.
23. I have three sons whom I love more than anything else in this world, including number 6.
24. I think men who shave (or buzz real short) their heads are much more respectable than men with comb-overs……or the “skirt look” (cough, cough, George Constanza, cough, cough.)
25. Did you know that if I had filled this out from my 1st birthday and continue until I am 80, you would have to read a total of 3240 extremely boring facts?? (read: I LOVE math.)

Well, happy 25th Birthday to me!

p.s. Don’t worry if you didn’t get a chance to tell me Happy Birthday……I will be 25 again next year, hehe!

p.p.s. I totally copied this idea from first, my sister-in-law Emily, second, Alida. Thanks for the idea girls!
