Passing it on...

Alright, Staci over the theconfusedquilter.blogspot.com nominated me for this and Staci is right.  She IS confused!  Anybody who sees me rollin' through the school  drop-off line in my Nick & Nora Jammies will tell you that if I have a style, it is "comfy." 

There are a two rules for this award; one is that I have to share 8 things about myself, and the second, is pass the award to 8 other blogs.  

Anyway, I'm just gonna say a big thanks to Staci and pass it on to some other blogs I like to read...and I am gonna stick to small blogs.

Now 8 things about me (stolen from my facebook 25 random things about me note that we all just had to do a few mos ago).

1.I hate for my wrists to be touched. It is just so disconcerting to me. Most of the time I will wear 3/4 sleeve shirts, shirts that are way too big (like Erik's) or I will roll up my sleeves. I can't wear a watch and I have only worn bracelets that were very big a few times. Thank God I live in this warm climate!

2.I have worked as a Barista at 2 separate places. I don't like going to coffee houses because I know how the equipment SHOULD be cleaned and how few of my past coworkers ever DID that level of cleaning. The things I have seen will cure any $4 coffee habit.

3.I resist technology (except Tivo which was my homegirl from day 1)

4.  I have a rare thing with my genetic sequence or something where I sometimes test positive for HIV using standard tests. I have had to do a very expensive series tests to prove that I am not HIV + to the state of Texas (since I did birth a child here).  Major Drama...though I knew I didn't have HIV b/c I had a similar issue when I first donated blood at age 17.  Fun times taking your newborn baby into an appointment with one of the top HIV/AIDS OBGYNs in the country.  FUN TIMES!

5.  After my first date with my now husband, my friends were so nosy (spying out of a window when we got back) and when they asked how it went and I said "he's nice, but it's not like I'm gonna marry him!"  I'm glad I was wrong.

6.  I truly think my 6 year old will be a writer one day.  He's just too funny.  His kindergarten teacher got him started making books and I bought him a ton of barebooks to create because he did such a good job.  Last year he won the creative writer award.  Mommy suspicions: confirmed. 

7.  I knew I was having twins before the doctor said something about it.  I had symptoms really early and I just knew.  I didn't tell anybody because I really hate when people build it up in their head they are having twins and act like 1 healthy baby is a letdown. 

8.  I LOVE bathroom humor.  It's a good thing I have 3 boys...they think that is my best quality.

Soooooo....do y'all have any confessions to share, too???
