Tidbits...25 of them, to be exact

1. I am terribly upset about turning 25 next year.

2. Something bad happens to me every single time it snows...

3. I am a terrible judge of character.

4. I have a really hard time staying mad at people and because of this, I've let myself become very similar to a doormat.

5. I am perpetually late to everything... I can't help it. I am, however, attempting to work on this issue.

6. I really really really want to believe that everything happens for a reason, but some days I'm just not sure.

7. I was in a really really bad car wreck in 2003 in which I sustained very serious injuries and could have been killed. The car was totaled and when they did the odometer statement for the insurance company, it was 77,777.7 The car was not drivable, so it was just loaded up on a flatbed. No additional miles were put on it after the crash, so it was actually 77,777.7 miles when I wrecked. If you do the numerology on the date of when I had the wreck, it also comes out to 7.

8. I am terribly superstitious of the number 7 because of said situation above.

9. I really love llamas. I don't really have an explanation for this.

10. I named my cat after a bar on the strip.

11. I really love to fly. I love everything about the airport, I think it's exciting.

12. I try very hard to control my southern accent, but when I drink a lot or get really excited about something, it slips out.

13. I have been terribly unlucky when it comes to relationships, but I remain optimistic.

14. I can fake a British accent for hours... I successfully fooled someone at Peninsula Hospital into thinking I was British (no, I wasn't there for treatment...it was for work, haha)

15. I've become very spoiled by the flexibility that my job allows me. I'm not sure I could have a structured job that required me to work set hours.

16. Working for the Department of Children's Services has changed my life... I just can't decide if it's changed it for the better or worse, haha. Just kidding, of course. It's been an incredible opportunity which I'm very thankful for.

17. I would rather have 2 or 3 really close friends that I know I can trust than 15 or 20 acquaintances that I always have to worry about.

18. I really want to audition for American Idol just for the sole purpose of meeting Simon and Paula.

19. I've gotten into a terrible habit of cursing... I'm trying to work on this.

20. I believe that things find you when you need them to find you...and for me, it's usually song lyrics.

21. I absolutely LOVE Taking Back Sunday and Fall out boy.

22. If I could live anywhere else, I'd live in New York City.

23. I am a spelling Nazi, lol. Quite frequently you'll hear Amanda or someone else saying "hey, how do you spell [insert word here]". It drives me crazy when people don't spell things correctly.

24. I heart Jack Bauer.

25. Amanda and I were doing cartwheels down the hallway in the DCS office today. We don't have an explanation, so don't ask. Some co-workers did, however, get video footage of said cartwheels.
