6 Unimportant Facts About Me...

Yes, I know most of you only check this blog for updates on our star, Caris-Bug. However, I saw this on someone else's blog and thought it would be fun to give it a try. So, if you care nothing about knowing more about me, please quit reading now....I promise, no hard feelings!! For those brave souls still reading, I accept no responsibility for the level of boredom you are about to experience - you have been warned!!

1. I absolutely love college football! This is probably the most "un-girly" thing about me. I am a HUGE Ole Miss Rebels fan, but I will root for any SEC team when they are playing non-conference games. Before TIVO, I had been know to plan my entire Saturday around the football games on TV.
2. I love board and card games. I really have an affinity for trivia games, but poker or Yahtzee will do in a pinch. My favorite holiday and family get-together activities involve some kind of game. If it ever comes up in conversation, remind me to tell you about our family history with the game of "Spoons". Scary....
3. I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT STAND when people/businesses/crazies decorate for Christmas at EASTER!! I mean it gets earlier and earlier every stinkin' year!! Christmas is already over-commercialized as it is; do we really need to see Santa and his elves in the middle of August?!?! Let me make a distinction here between the quirky tradition in the south that is keeping your Christmas lights up on your house all year long and the blatant pandering to the public by any retail establishment to get a jump on the holiday sales. I am ranting against the later. Although, it does need to be noted that I have NEVER seen any residential Christmas decorations that were supposed to be permanently attached to one's dwelling. I'm just saying...
4. I will go a mile out of my way to avoid crossing traffic. I'm serious. If I can't find a light or a stop sign, I panic and get all shaky like I'm supposed to defuse a bomb and can't remember if I'm supposed to cut the green wire or the red wire. Then I start looking like a bobble-head doll on crack because I am trying to simultaneously look out of every window of the vehicle to make sure there isn't a car within a 10 mile radius so that I can safely get to the opposite side of the road. It's not pretty...
5. I have dreams ALL THE TIME that my teeth fall out. Not just that they fall out, mind you, but that this happens in very public situations. I'll just be sitting in church or at a restaurant and my teeth just, one-by-one, start falling out of my mouth. How messed up is that?!?! I promise that I DO NOT smoke or use ANY illicit drugs, so I'm at a loss for an explanation. And I do brush and floss regularly, so I'm pretty sure it's not a subconscious hygiene issue.
6. I live on the river and won't swim in it. I've lived on the same street since I was in 9th grade, which just happens to run along-side the Tombigbee River. A plus to most, but not me. I have always thought that the river was disgusting and nasty. I don't want to swim in water when I can't see my hand an inch in front of my face when I go under. That's just me...
