11 Random Facts: 

1. I don't know how to swim. 

2. I went to college for Health Science, but don't even know what to do with that degree, really. 

3. I gave up all caffeine three years ago. 

4. I don't paint my finger nails -- with the kids and housework, they don't last, so there's no point. 

5. I'm slightly *obsessed* with Dog the Bounty Hunter. 

6. I love to shop at Goodwill and other thrift stores. 

7. I don't really like french fries and can never finish them at a restaurant. 

8. I cannot stand dusting and will wait until it's out of control before I put a rag to it. 

9. I can't remember my multiplication tables beyond the 5's without using my fingers. [Yet I know my 12's!]

10. I love cheesy teen movies, like Prom! 

11. Everyone thinks I'm an old lady because my dream [realistic] car is a Lincoln MKZ

The Questions I was asked: 

1. What is your favorite song to listen to right now?

Anything by Bruno Mars. I am in lust with that man! 

2. Morning Person or Night Person

Morning. I'm awake usually between 4 and 430am most days. It's the only way I'm guarenteed some quiet alone time. And because I wake up early, I go to bed around 10pm. 

3. Who is your celebrity look alike?

Oh, Man! My husband would laugh hysterically at this. Because I've been told by a few people that I look like Orlando Bloom's character in Lord of the Rings - with the long blond hair and all. 

4. Best/Worst gift you have ever received?

Best: Finding out my son was a boy the weekend of my 25th birthday! 

Worst: Nothing! [Granted, we agreed no big gifts that year ... but no card or cake either?! ::sigh::]

5.The best part of waking up is...?

The silence!! 

6.Favorite sport to watch?

Boxing ... MMA ... Baseball [but only the Red Sox!]

7.Favorite website?

Pinterest -- such a time suck. But so many good ideas. Just not enough time in the day to do everything! 

8.Glasses, contacts or neither?

Neither -- although I'll probably need glasses eventually. My left eye is going all wacky lately. 

9.Cup half-empty or half-ful kind of gal?
Either way, there's still something in the glass, right?! 

10.Favorite Starbucks drink?
Lately, it's been a Tall Iced Vanilla Decaf Latte with a shot of Caramel. 

11.Favorite restaraunt?

Oh MAN! We love this little Mexican place near us -- Torero's. And a Thai place -- Royal Bangkok Thai. If you ask my three year old, everyone in the world should love Golden Corral, though!!
