25 Random Things About Me
25. I must read aloud when in an instant message chat with someone. When my husband is home, I do it very quietly.
24. I really enjoy writing letters.
23. I don't use my dishwasher because I love to wash dishes by hand.
22. In Kindergarten my teacher wrote on a progress report that I was always afraid no one liked me. I still think that way.
21. My online persona, Kirby... everyone likes her.
20. I don't like going to bed because I'm afraid I'll miss something, but I love napping.
19. I love going to hotels.
18. I have my sisters name tag from Macy's on my fridge.
17. I do not own a pair of flip flops.
16. I really like writing and think I could be a writer, but I don' t understand English grammar.
15. I don't like the sound of the ocean or running water (like a fountain.)
14. I love to quote movie lines. "The Jerk" is one of my all time favorite quotable movies.
13. I don't know my right from left unless I think of it in terms of driving and turning right or getting into the left-hand-turn lane.
12. I like to read True Crime books
11. I really dislike getting wet. This includes showers.
10. Buying clothes, shoes or purses are real low on my list of things to buy -- Office supplies are so much more fun!
9. I own three pair of shoes, two are tennis shoes.
8. Clowns freak me out.
7. I like to look for and collect bicentennial quarters because they remind me of my Grandpa Corlett.
6. My favorite dishes are the pottery bowls that I have collected from various art fairs, vacation spots, pottery guild sales or local shops.
5. I read billboards, signs and other assorted printed material in the wrong order. I also read things too quickly and add in my own words - for example thinking the Michigan Dyslexic Institute was the Mexican Dyslexic Institute.
4. Wearing a hat gives me a headache almost instantly.
3. I like to drink chocolate milk with three ice cubes.
2. I laugh every single day. Most of the time I do something goofy that makes me laugh.
1. I love to watch the same movie over and over again. I have a rotation of about 10 movies that I would rather watch than about anything else. They are of course, all romantic comedies. (I am watching Music & Lyrics while writing this)
I wrote this for FaceBook, but decided I should post it here, too. I tried not to put anything on this list that I had already posted in my blog -- so that means I couldn't write about my love of the number 22, the time 11:11 or that I loved Sharpies and Post-It notes. I actually wanted to fill up the whole post with things about my family -- so I will have to write up another post titled "25 Random Things that I Love about My Family."
Enjoy!

You're sooo cute! I can't believe you do not own a pair of flip flops! You live in Florida- right?lol
I'm just teasing...I live in boring Pennsylvania and yet own a ton of flip flops! I even wear them sometimes in the winter if there isn't any snow. I always love the reactions people give me when they look at my feet! I also like the movie The Jerk...it's a classic...and clowns freak me out too! Have a great day!

Cool post!!!!
Come on....why would you think people wouldn't like you!!!! You are such a WONDERFUL person!!!!!!
#23..are you crazy?!?!?
I was mad yesterday when I filled the dishwasher and still had dishes I had to hand wash!!! lol
Those are great! I hate getting wet too! The worst thing ever is when the tips of my sleeves or pants gets wet. Driving me crazy just thinking about it!
These things were beyond interesting! I found myself nodding to several of them. I was born in 1976, so when I waited tables in high school and college I thought the bicentenial quarters were cool because they were made in '76. It's amazing how few of them seem to be in circulation anymore. Probably because you and I have them all...
I just started mixing up my left and right in the last few years. I gave a bunch of people directions to our house saying it was on the right when it is really on the left, yikes! I think my brain is just too full for the trivial stuff.
I can't believe you don't like to get wet. We spent so much time in the pool at Grammas...and heck you had a pool at your last house.
I don't have flip flops either. I think they are cute and they remind me of summer, but no way can I stand that thing between my toes!
Oh, and not about this, how is your baby sister going to be 30? I still remember your Mom telling that she was pregnant and Alison throwing herself on the floor!
