This is not as easy as it sounds. I had to really think about these.
7 Random and weird facts about me:
1. I really, really hate the fatty and grisly part of meat. I will go so far, as to cut a large area around it so I do not have to eat anything that was even close to touching that part of the meat. I also like my meat really dry, which drives my husband crazy. We have debates over that all of the time.
2. I dislike spiders so much that I do not like to even watch anything about them on television or look at a picture of them. For some school function we watched the movie "Arachnophobia" and I was never the same, and that one part in the Lord of the Rings trilogy where Frodo and Sam are attacked by the big spiders made me want to vomit. Same in Harry Potter where they are chased by all of the spiders in the forest. YUCK!
3. I really like the smell of shoe stores. There is something about that new shoe smell that gets me every time. If "shoe store" were an option for air freshener, I'd probably buy it.
4. I think I've broken my pinkie toe about 50 times. I'm not positive, but with all of the times I've bashed it on the piano bench or a chair, that could explain why it looks slightly crooked.
5. I do not like lemon flavored things. Not desserts, cookies or candies really. I like lemonade and that's about it. I do like the smell of lemons however.
6. I am a horrible artist. I did not get the artistic gene in my family at all. My drawing skills basically plateaued in the second grade and I really hope my children never need to rely on me to help them out drawing anything for class projects. But hey, if you ever need some flowers or stick people, I'm your girl.
7. From the time I was 17 to 18 1/2 years old I was in 3 car accidents. I was a passenger in all three and very lucky not to be hurt other than some bad whip lash. I had a strange feeling for a while though, that fate was not on my side. Four years later I was waiting to take a left turn at a busy intersection with my 6 month old daughter in the back seat on our way to see my parents. Our green arrow came up and just as I was easing off the brake, a thought as clear as day told me to wait and not go. Just then a semi truck ran a red light and came barreling through the intersection going WAY over the speed limit. Listening to the still small voice that day probably saved our lives.
So now it's your turn!

I hear you on the meat fat, but dry meat...I think I'm with Rylie on that one!
Ughhh, just thinking of spiders gives me the chills.
I like new shoe smell too.
I have a toe like that too. It has no connection any more and it just flops around. It is really horrible isn't it. Thanks for playing along. You are not at all weird though :)
I love these random things that I learn about you. Loved your story about driving your car. Truly a miracle. Glad to know about the lemon flavored desserts and the spiders...hmm, I smell Natallie coming up with a scare sometime in the future. So watch out. :)
