I've been Tagged!

So, Megan, my friend at work tagged me, and now I am supposed to tell six things about me, so here goes....

1. I love pickles, I could eat them pretty much every day. I love them so much that I have actually drank the juice.

2. I have over 25 pairs of black dress shoes, but I only wear about five of them more than twice a year. I also have almost as many black shirts as all of the rest of the colors of shirts I own combined.

3. I have gotten two tickets in my life, but only been pulled over once...figure that one out. I have also been in 4 car accidents and gotten at least five parking tickets. 18 and 19 were rough years for me...

4. I am not very competitive, except for at the gym....I always have to one up the person on the machine next to me, for example if they are running 6 miles an hour for 30 minutes, I have to run 6.5 miles and hour for 35 minutes. So, because I know this about myself, I always try to get a treadmill next to a girl that looks kinda wimpy so that I don't kill myself trying to work out to hard.

5. My husband likes my hair long so I am growing it long for him, if it were my choice my hair would only be about chin length like it was for like 7 years before I met him. I am such a good wife :)

6. I have a thing for 80's music. It started when I was in high school. There was a radio station called Star 98.7 that played totally 80's at noon. When I was on summer break I would go in my room at noon and turn on the radio and listen to the 80's music (and sometimes dance...embarrassing I know) But, I was born in 1985 so I don't know 99% of the singers names, but I always know the words to the songs. My favorite song of all time is Just Like Heaven by the Cure....it always puts me in a good mood.

Now I tag my sister Emily...

I HATE the cold

This morning as I was getting ready for work my heater in my house was blasting, so I was nice and toasty. I was running a little bit late so I hurried out the door, and what did I find....ICE on my car! I absolutely hate scraping ice off of my windshield, and it made me late for work. So, my day didn't start out to good today, and I blame it on the cold. So, for the next minute you all are going to hear why I hate winter:

1. I am allergic to the cold. You may think I am kidding...but I am definitely not. It is doctor diagnosed and it is called Cold Urticaria. Go ahead....google it, it is real.
2. The few times that it snowed growing up in California it would only snow about maybe an inch or so, and it would all melt by about 10:00am...but they cancelled everything for the slightest amount of snow. So, I actually looked forward to snow then because it meant no school. But Utah is a much different story...they don't cancell anything for snow, even if the roads are plowed..and that leads to my number 3
3. I can't drive in the snow. I am completely paranoid, and I drive like 15 mph...so it takes FOREVER for me to get anywhere.
4. I like wearing sandals and I have lots of cute sandals that don't get any use for about at least half of each year. I also have very few winter clothes and I refuse to buy a lot of them because I only plan on living Utah until Bryan graduates...which should only be one more winter besides this one...and then we will move back to sunny Southern California, and forget all about snow.
5. I don't snowboard or ski
6. In Utah they actually have a white Christmas....I don't dream of a white Christmas, I dream of a warm Christmas like the ones I used to know. Lucky for me I will be in San Diego for Christmas.

So there you have it....I hate snow, Ice, and cold, and anything that has to do with it. Have a wonderful day!
