1. The cake for my 13th birthday was left over from my grandmother's funeral/wake the day before. I thought it was morbid at the time, but I find it hilarious now.
2. If I am trying to put something together or take it apart, I must stick my tongue out. What? It helps!
3. If I am watching TV and one of those ASPCA or Humane Society ads comes on, I must turn the channel. Can. Not. Watch.
4. I wrote painfully bad, angsty poetry when I was a teenager and I still have some of it. But you have to sleep with me before I'll bust it out and let you laugh at it.
5. I can't roller skate.
Bonus: 5 things no one would know ... about my family.
1. My oldest sister was pregnant at the same time my mom was pregnant with me.
2. My maternal grandfather was a coal miner.
3. My dad worked as a milk man when he and my mom were first married. And he drove a horse and carriage on his route.
4. My mom's family did not have indoor plumbing until they moved from Iowa to Michigan when she was 15. The previous season's Sears & Roebuck catalog was their toilet paper.
5. My father's parent's were first cousins.
