and here is my "25 things"

so this "25 things" posting is going around like a virus on facebook and various blogs, and for lack of a better thing to do at this moment i suppose i can take part cause, while i am not as good as suara (aka, sue and sara) at making lists, i think i can come up with 25 things to share ( i will still not tell you secrets.)

1. deep down in my heart i know i will be famous one day. i have no plans for how this will come to pass, i just know it will.
2. i actually, have no life plan and frequently feel stressed that i am wasting my life.
3. i don't know how to get involved in things.
4. i was home schooled and think i am better/ worse for it.
5. i seriously could have been a professional roller skater if that was a real life thing. i spent hours roller skating in my driveway when i was a kid and got so good, i could do ice skating jumps in them.
6. i still strongly hate my second boyfriend and think if there is a hell, he belongs there.
7. i started skiing when i was 3 and went to ski school every year. i am technically an expert skier but haven't been skiing since college.
8. i don't believe in math.
9. i don't know what the organization i work for does.
10. one of the worst things i ever did was make my exboyfriend go to his prom with me after we broke up. even worse, i didn't realize how terrible that was until years later and don't blame him for never talking to me again.
11. even though i hate sports, i actually wanted to buy a world championship phillies sweatshirt after they won, because i was genuinely excited that they did it.
12. i was challenged to a fight in college and then accidentally showed up for it, resulting in me being picked up and dropped on the sidewalk. no one got hurt.
13. i want to drive a long distance to work, instead of taking a short train ride, so i can listen to morning edition and all things considered on NPR.
14. i think i get along with sue so well because she is the only person i have met who is as shady as i am.
15. ever since aria died i have lost interest in most everything i used to really like.
16. when i was a child i dove off a doll high chair, into the bath tub because i had been watching diving on the Olympics. it was one of the only times i did a regrettable childhood thing without the prompting of my sister. i didn't get hurt but did learn, years later, at the time i did this my parents where meeting with the insurance adjuster in the dining room.
17. i read people.com on a daily basis and know a lot about celebrity gossip. i originally, started doing this when i worked at cardinal health so i would have something to talk about with the girl in the cube next to me.
18. going to friendlies every week before youth group was the last time i had a regularly scheduled outing with friends.
19. i am the only person i know who developed colitis from having a tooth removed.
20. that party at sue terpins where the homeless guy showed up was the first time i actually liked all the friends i had acquired in my life.
21. a philosophy professor once threw chalk at me during class.
22. aside from my first boyfriend, every other boy i was involved with studied religion, and i have no idea how that happened.
23. i am on a perpetual search for the perfect hand bag.
24. the best trip i ever took was the big masonic adventure. it was the first time i felt really free.
25. i have done a very good job of eliminating stressful people from my life. i decided in college that i only wanted friendships which did not stress me out. if we are still friends, that means you made the cut. congrats.
