TAGGED

I was tagged by Heather- thanks Head! I’ll say who I’m tagging at the beginning: Bianca, Courtney, and Brittany! Here are 5 “interesting” things about me:

1) I stutter really bad when I get nervous or excited

2) When I was little, I was the meanest child on earth. Ask anyone who knew me back then and they’ll testify. I remember we had a rope tied to a tree that we would swing on and I knew my sister Michelle was coming out to play on it any second. I snuck outside, climbed the tree and loosened the knot and then went and hid behind a bush. Michelle comes running out all cheerful and excited and takes and giant leap to swing on the rope only to fall flat on her back. My plan was successful. I also tried to tie my mom’s shoes together when she was holding my little sister, broke my other little sister’s arm, and wouldn’t let anyone be friends with anyone else. I was everyone’s only friend

3) Also when I was little I was obsessed with snails. (Sick, I know!) I had like 50 pet snails I found in the sand box outside and I would try and sneak them everywhere we went. I remember I got grounded once because I put a snail in one of my mom’s kitchen bowls with sand in it and snuck it to my Grandma’s house. I dropped it in the car and my mom wasn’t so happy! I was a weird child.

4) I love musicals! King and I, Newsies, Singing in the Rain, West Side Story, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Oliver, and South Pacific are some of the best. I don’t watch them anymore because Brandon absolutely hates them and my sisters won’t watch them with me because I overdosed them on musicals growing up.

5) I hate driving! I know it’s probably because I suck at driving (Heather once told me, “You’re the driver that all parents dread”) but besides that- I’ve had traumatic experiences. I slid on black ice on the freeway and slammed into the car in front of me, (and the officer gave me a ticket for following too close! I tried to fight it at court but that’s a whole other story); before I got my license I stalled on a hill in a busy intersection and got in an accident; I, along with Bran’s family witnessed a terrible accident in Mesquite a few years ago; and just a couple of months ago I was stuck in the white-out on the Micron road trying to get to the freeway. It’s the worst!
