25 random things about me

Since I did this for Facebook, I thought I would put it here for fun too!

Enjoy.

1. I feel like this list needs to be either amazing or witty or something…. It may be just boring. Oh the pressure!
2. I am the typical oldest child – responsible, perfectionist, and all that stuff.
3. I love trivia! I listen to a trivia thing on the radio every day on the way to work. I don’t know all the answers but love the challenge.
4. I am ½ Danish and proud of it.
5. I have texture issues with my food.
6. Peanut butter is gross. More than anything it is the texture.
7. I LOVE thunderstorms. Add lightning and heavy rain, and it is perfect snuggle-up-under-a-blanket-at-home weather.
8. I have 10 nicknames that I go by on a regular basis, and “Kris” isn’t one of them. Only 2 people have ever attempted it.
9. I have never been on a diet – no willpower to be strict about it.
10. I dream every night, and vividly. Sometimes I get answers to questions, and sometimes it is weird versions of Dr. Seuss.
11. I love my DVR. Unfortunately, I watch more TV than I should….but I love it!
12. Favorite color is orange.
13. I am definitely a night person…love to sleep in.
14. I have quite the random assortment of people as friends….and it makes my life exciting and fun!
15. I love to read, mostly for enjoyment, but occasionally for education and enlightenment too.
16. I am a sugar-a-holic. Not chocolate… just sugary stuff.
17. I am a low-tech girl with what I call a ‘ghetto’ cell phone.
18. I have only broken one bone… my freshman year in college, I broke my 5th metacarpal.
19. You know how some people can ‘get in the zone’ running… I can’t. That brain just keeps on thinking, even if it is unnecessary.
20. Snakes freak me out. It is partly the way they move, the whole biting you thing, and their wee-beady eyes…
21. Nothing like a little “punny” humor to make the day better.
22. I am a sappy romantic at heart. I can’t help myself.
23. Romantic movies have totally skewed my view of reality and relationships. I am screwed.
24. I love when I laugh so hard I cry. I need to do that more often!
25. I am relieved that I came up with 25 things. Yay! (now I can check it off my list of things to do…. Just kidding! I am not that bad at making lists.)
