Whoever thought up this tagging game was pretty darn clever. And I'm guessing the creator just started it and didn't really participate. That way he/she would know oodles of embarassing or odd facts about their friends without divulging incriminating facts about themselves...sounds like my kind of person!
Crystal, my baby sister, tagged me, and now I have to list 10 random things about myself. If I didn't love her so darn much, I probably would ignore the challenge...here goes nothing:
1. Let's just start out with a humdinger--I peed my pants (15 years old) while working a night shift at the Hong Kong (chinese restaurant in Milford, Utah). I was busy ringing up customers with no time for a bathroom break. I lost all control and tried to conceal the moment by pretending to spill water on me. I had to call my big sis for another pair of pants, but the nice Chinese cook gave me an apron while I PATIENTLY waited.
2. I am obsessed with armpits. If you are wearing a tank top, I will be staring at the pits. I don't know what it is. Maybe it's the fact that I never grew armpit hair until I was a Senior in high school and even now I only have to shave weekly. I'm just checking out your pit situation--the color, the pricklies, the texture. It's a need to know situation.
3. I'm a childhood thief. Here it is out in the open now. I know I'm going to feel better, especially if everyone comments that they have done it before. You know the candy bins at the local grocery store. I've stole a caramel or two before. I didn't even really feel guilty. I just remember the sweet, smooth taste of the caramel and only wanting more and more and more...
4. I hate chain emails. Everyone knows what I'm talking about. The kind that gives a sappy message or story and then asks you to pass it on to 10 more people or you will endure bad luck for a bazillion years...I delete them before I even read them.
5. I love the color red, almost any shade of red. It's true. You can check my closet. Among the hangers you will find tons of red, maroon, burgandy, dark pink. I think it stems from my Milford Tiger blood.
6. Another eye opener...I sucked my thumb until I was 8 years old. My older sisters threatened to tell my friends, and I cried. When they threatened to let my childhood boyfriends in on the secret, I vowed to stop sucking my thumb forever. I stayed up all night just to make sure it never slipped into my mouth.
7. I married my high school sweetheart. What can I say? I was lucky enough to find the right person the first time around :) And since we've been married for over 7 years, I can talk about our past makeout sessions. Like the time my two little brothers were camping on the top of the plant shelves in our living room. They watched us make out all night while my mom slept on the couch. Then the little snots tried to hold it over my head as a bargaining tool.
8. Speaking of my marriage, I pretended to shave my legs on my honeymoon because I desperately needed to poop. I didn't want Dustin thinking about me taking a big turd, so I ran the shower and locked the door.
9. I'm also a scaredy cat. One night during my high school years, I heard a tap on my window. I ran out screaming for my dad. He did a quick check with the flashlight just to make me feel better. Later Crystal, the sister that tagged me, fessed up that it was someone looking to sneak her out of the house.
10. I'm out of ideas and not much on rules, so who says there has to be a number 10...ha ha ha
