1. i used to carry around a scrabble board and scrabble dictionary in my car. lexulous has now somewhat replaced my urge to play in person, along with the fact that i have no car.
2. playing word games has given me a large vocabulary. when i write papers for school, i like to include bizarre words to see if professors notice.
3. i am an incredibly picky eater but i am willing to bet i have tried more random foods than most people. i try most anything a few times before declaring that i don't like it.
4. i prefer salty over sweet. in fact, i have been known to eat pretzel salt instead of the actual pretzel. and i like my dark chocolate with salt crystals in it.
5. i like to procrastinate. its rare that i do assignments in advance. yet i still get really good grades.
6. i hate talking on the phone and calling people. i used to hate calling businesses too, but i can do that now. i still won't call people i don't know well even if it causes great inconvenience to me.
7. i am really shy around people i don't know. i have a bad habit of talking thru other people; i will say something to person A with hopes that person B will hear and enter the conversation.
8. the only tv i watch regularly includess jeopardy, good eats, top chef, iron chef and football.
9. i am a huge steelers fan thanks to james. several years of making me watch football has paid off.
10. i am insanely brand loyal when it comes to food. i would rather not eat than consume something from a brand i don't like. i guess this goes back to me being picky.
11. i refused to watch ghostbusters growing up because the secretary has the same name as me. i still have not seen any of the movies in the entirety.
12. i love the smell of new plastic toys.
13. i love to travel. i wish i had a job where i made enough money and enough flexibility to travel when ever i want to.
14. i am a beer snob who drinks coors light. i would go broke rather quickly if i kept drinking microbrews that i like. the dogfish head 120 is $9.50 a bottle

15. i am stubborn. if it comes down to doing what i want, or what someone else wants, i don't understand why i should be the one to concede. i also don't understand the idea of not playing games to win.
16. i declared i was moving cross country because i was bored in ohio. i moved here with no job and no plan, but everything seems to be working out fine. i have a job, a place to live with my two best friends, am in grad school and making new friends
17. i don't wear my engagement ring to work because i hate getting it all dirty. and because over thanksgiving the diamond fell out and i had to have it reset.
18. i can't sleep if i don't have pajamas on. and i prefer to have my eye pillow and teddy bear and pillow and blanket too. and there needs to be some sort of ambient noise in the background.
19. the first car i drove was filled with little furbies from mcdonalds. someone kept leaving them on my hood every morning junior year. i still don't know where they came from.
20. i prefer the aisle seats on flights so i can get off the plane faster.
21. i hate crowds of people that just stand around and have no purpose. i dislike waiting in lines and most other things associated with large masses of people.
22. while i may bitch about my job, i do love what i do. spending all day playing with little kids beats an office job any day. even if the bureaucraticness annoys me.
23. i swear, a lot. its pretty amazing that i have typed this much with out saying fuck.
24. people say i have some sort of accent and lots of people assume i am foreign when they meet me. other than sounding like i am from the midwest, i don't think i talk funny.
25. football manager doesn't amuse me
