This is now a full 100 random things you may or may not know about 'moi.
1. When I was younger, I wouldn't get in the water at the beach. I would stand at the edge of the ocean and cry because the crabs were going to get me. In my mind I still see rows and rows of crabs with their vicious looking claws up and ready. My mother says there were never any crabs.
2. I have my mother's psychotic OCD tendencies. The difference being that I can turn mine on and off. When I walk into a room, my brain automatically starts breaking it down and organizing it. "That needs to go in the trash and those can go in that box, and this goes here" and so on.
3. I frequently have dreams where I sleep with different celebrities. Most of them I'm not even slightly interested in. I'm a dream slut.
4. I hate bullies. They make my blood boil. To the point that I can't watch a movie or TV show where someone is being bullied. I have on several occasions stepped in and defended a complete strangers who were victims of bullying. I will beat my children shitless if they turn out to be bullies.
5. I have no problem getting on to other people's children. I do it quite often, actually. I guess it comes from being a preschool teacher for 3 years. It's almost like a jerk reaction.
6. Every guy who's ever shat on my heart has come crawling back and now leads a miserable life. That makes me happy in a bitchy sort of way.
7. On that note, contrary to what some might think, I was the "dateless wonder" for many years. Everyone wanted to be my friend, no one wanted to date me.
8. And on that, that note, haha, I will never, ever, ever, EVER lead someone on. I think that is quite possibly the worst thing you could do to someone. I have had it done to me one too many times.
9. I used to be able to pull off a convincing British accent. Stacy and I would find it entertaining to use them in public. I'm a bit rusty now.
10. I'm constantly quoting my favorite movies, TV shows, books, and songs. Mostly movies, though. People rarely get them (except Davis). I will instantly adore you if you do.
11. I have huge feet, boobs and lips. I used to be extremely self conscious about it. But I've finally come to terms with it. I guess that's part of growing up.
12. I love the way cats smell. I can tell by sniffing them if they are outdoor or indoor cats.
13. I can watch a movie once and be able to recite it in it's entirety. But I can't tell you where I placed my car keys or what I ate for breakfast.
14. I can function on 4 or less hours of sleep. I have a hard time falling asleep at night and rarely take naps. Who needs Red Bull? haha.
15. Whenever I enter a store that has automatic doors, I put my hand out and "use the Force" to open it. I did this on my and Daniel's first date and he thought it was funny/cute.
He's the only one.
16. When I was in elementary school, I hung out with mostly boys. None of the other girls were interested in Star Wars or Power Rangers.
17. I've always liked rail thin, pale, long haired guys. I'm not impressed with a tan or muscles. Bonus points if you're a geek and/or musician. Back in the day, my bedroom was plastered in Hanson posters.
18. I am extremely passive and rarely get worked up or offended about anything. I pick my battles very few and far between. However, when I pick one, watch out.
19. I have a neck aversion. I hate them. I don't like mine touched or to see other people touch theirs.
20. I love sending and receiving hand written notes and cards, especially in the mail. In this day and age everyone IM's, texts, and e-mails. The hand written note is a lost art.
21. I've been a vegetarian for six years. And everyone thought it was going to be a phase. Ha.
22. I really hate clothes shopping. I'm not a big fan of shopping at all. I do like ordering CDs, DVDs and books online. I also like purchasing pet supplies.
23. I once had a short lived shot at cheer leading, I was in third grade and eventually dropped out because I hated shaking my butt and being prissy in front of everyone.
24. I am very modest. I don't wear shorts, tight clothes or low cut shirts. I'm a weirdo.
25. I am not the speed demon everyone thinks I am. I typically drive anywhere from 5 to 10 miles over the speed limit. I've never been in any type of wreck or hit an animal. The speed demon thing wasn't helped at all by Kevin getting on the air and telling "stories" about how I nearly ran over him or hit other cars in the station parking lot.
26. Cops hate me. I've been pulled over 5 times, all for bullshit reasons. I'm constantly being hassled by them.
27. I cannot stand the smell of fried chicken. It nauseates me. Second only to the smell of bacon.
28. I've always wanted to open either my own pet store or child care center. The child care center is probably the more realistic choice. I would name it "Strawberry Fields" and it would be painted in the style of the Apple Boutique.
29. I love filling things out. Paper work, surveys, applications. That's why I do so many surveys.
30. I feel like I have to "fix" things. I'm always trying to help people. I'm constantly trying to "save" people. But I have recently realized that some people are perfectly happy wallowing in their "misfortune".
31. I love black people. Is it racist to say that? I simply adore them. Especially loud, middle aged, southern, black women. I currently work with one and I love it
32. I think baths are disgusting. Ass soup. You're sitting in your own filth, people!
33. I am deathly afraid of water. I will not come within 10 feet of any form of standing water.
34. I hate Summer. I have no idea why I live in Florida. When I think of Summer, I think of being dirt poor, covered in sweat and it being too damn hot to function.
35. I want to move to foggy London town. I have begun to seriously research what all goes into international relocation.
36. I love rain and thunderstorms. Which is a big part of the London attraction.
37. I am a Jedi master of resumes. No doubt. I can make anyone look like Mother Teresa.
38. I'm not "clean" unless I've showered, shaved my legs, and lotioned.
39. I can't sleep unless my window is closed and the blinds drawn. I'm paranoid that some psychopath will watch me sleep, otherwise.
40. I hate, hate, HATE guys who try to hit on me via MySpace. 99.9% of them didn't even bother to read my profile. They're always like "You're hot" blah blah. First off, asswipe, if you didn't even read what I had to say, you obviously don't think very highly of me. And second everyone looks better in their MySpace pictures than they do in real life. I wish I looked like my MySpace pictures.
41. On that note, I also hate obnoxious guys.
Yes, they're real.
42. I want the "Heroes" helix tattooed on my back like Jessica. It think. I'm still tossing it around.
43. I adore Amy Winehouse. I'm fascinated by her. In my eyes she can do no wrong. She's the best thing to break out on the music scene since the Doors.
44. I'm like a car salesman. I can identify almost any car, tell you the make, model, year, standard features and engine type. However, I know nothing about the mechanics of them at all.
45. I'm always late to jump on the bandwagon. I'll hear a new band or see a new TV show or movie and hate it. Then months and in most cases, years later I'll see or hear it by chance and fall in love with it.
46. I am so friggin pale that I glow in the dark. All my tinted moisturizers and powders are all called "porcelain" and "Moonbeam". It used to bother me. But not so much anymore. I put a lot into my skin (lotioning and exfoliating), I'm not about to butcher it by tanning.
47. I think "Love Shack" by the B-52's has got to be one of the best songs known to man. It puts me in the best mood. I have it on my Mp3 player and listen to it every morning on the way to work.
48. I hate needles. I hyperventilated when I had to get my tetanus shot. I always weasel my way out of any sort of blood work. However, on a fairly recent doctor visit, I had to have blood drawn. I thought I was a big girl about it. The nurse said I was on the verge of fainting, haha.
49. I'm straight edge. I always have been. It wasn't until 2003 that I found out that there was a name for it. Drinking, drugs and smoking have never even been a temptation for me. It's just not my thing.
50. I'm a huge Final Fantasy fan. 8 is my favorite. And I beat the Omega Weapon first try. Impressed much? Skillz, I has them
51. I can be very persuasive and manipulative (aka Jedi mind tricks). It's a dark gift andI only use it when I absolutely have to. Normally, when dealing with my mother. Ironically enough, that also came from her gene pool. I just happen to be a hell of a lot better at it than her.
52. I have been a vegetarian since December 6, 2002 (the day Lennon died….just happened that way). I actually quit eating pork in 2001 after seeing a PETA video about pigs.
An episode of "The Practice" is what convinced me to go full vegetarian. Cameryn Manhein'scharacter was representing a tribal group who was charged with animal cruelty charges after killing a goat in a ceremony. I remember she asked the prosecutor if he ate meat and wore leather. He answered yes to both. Andthen she said "Than how can you standup for this goat, but turn a blind eye to the cow you ate for lunch? You hypocrite, how can you say one life is worth more because it benefited you?".
That really hit home. I decided right then to become a vegetarian.
53. I have an overbearing fear of child birth and pregnancy. There's nothing beautiful about it for me. The plan right now is to go to Africa and snatch some kids like Madonna did.
54. I remember I went through a phase when I was 4 or 5 when the entire cast of "Eureka's Castle" (anyone remember that show?) was my imaginary friends. I was an odd child.
55. I can pull some outrageous shit out of my ass and deliver it with a straight face. I normally use this for comedic purposes; but it's also gotten me out of some tight spots. And gotten me into them as well.
56. Even though I suck in math, royally, I've always been very advanced in reading comprehension and english. Not so much in spelling. When I was in 4th grade they sent me to the high school class for reading and english. I was explaining "Pilgrim's Progress" to kids almost twice my age. I like to think it had a lot to do with the fact I watched "Sesame Street" everyday. Hmm..
57. When I was in 2nd grade, I was a very devoted Power Rangers fan. So much that I quit ballet because my class was the same time as Power Rangers. My mother didn't know the real reason I quit up until 3 years ago. She said "We could have set the VCR!" Pfft, I was hardcore!
58. I want a Chrysler LeBaron. I think they are BEAUTIFUL! I would gladly trade my 2002 for a red 1995 LeBaron. And if you don't know what a LeBaron is, it's the car Ashton Kutcher drove in "Cheaper By the Dozen".
59. I'm straight. But if I wasn't, Tessa would be my life partner! And we would get married on a moutain. And there would be garlands of flowers and herbs. Andour children would form a family band.
60. I'm convinced that I know everything about Star Wars, and you don't. And you could never love it as much as I do. Don't bother arguing with me.
61. Someone once told me I was a "Geek with a loaded rock star complex". I'm not sure what that means, but it sounds cool. Anyone care to enlighten me?
62. me-OW!
Tessa knows what that's about
63. My cell phone is my third lung. I never go anywhere without it. I even take it to the kitchen with me to grab a snack. I'm also a compulsive texter. On that note, if we haven't exchanged numbers, message me.
64. I was raised on MTV. I think this was largely due to the fact that my mom was 18 when she had me (she used to be cool). I had a Bon Jovi poster on my wall at 4. I also new every word to every song from "Slippery When Wet" and "New Jersey". I also loved Poison, Joan Jett, Warrant, Motley Crue and Areosmith.
65. Even though I hate water and the beach, I've always thought a beach wedding would be pretty. Complete with a hippie dress and a barefoot ceremony.
66. If I'm not at work or asleep, I can be found at either Daniel's eating ice cream, snuggling and watching Kids in the Hall. Or at the library free loading off the free wireless with my DS and reading.
67. I love Gwen Stafani. Almost as much as Amy Winehouse. She's an icon who is creative andoriginal. She's got an awesome rock star husband and a kid. She also rocks that bright red lipstick (that I can't pull off because my lips are huge, and c'mon, do we really need to draw more attention to them?). *sigh* We can't all be that cool.
68. I'm a "Potterhead". I started reading Harry Potter when the second one came out. Of course I was immediately sucked in. Anything with magic, or warlocks, or dragons, or space and I'm in. I want the dark mark (book version, not movie) tattooed on my arm. But something tells me 30 year old Laura is not going to think it's quite as cool.
69. I've been playing piano since I was 12. I was put on a two year waiting list to take lessons, so I took matters into my own hands. I taught myself to read music and to actually play. I started lessons when I was 15. I really loved and respected my teacher. She was tough, but she taught me a lot. I would still be taking lessons from her today if she was giving them.
70. I have mild dyslexia. Which is a big reason why I suck so much at math and spelling. And why I have zero hand eye coordination.
71. I've had stomach issues since I was a infant. I could only drink a certain formula and could barely nurse. I used to get sick after I ate anything. After became a vegetarian, they nearly went away. Now I only go through "spells" of stomach issues.
72. I used to be "The Girl All the Preteens Want" (I think Christina penned that one.) All my friends little brothers loved me. I was especially popular at the Digital Bean (which was my second home for a while). Because not only was the majority of the customers there preteens, but we female geeks are a rare breed (apparently) and that made me somewhat attractive to the older crowd as well. It seems to have tapered off, thank God.
73. I was a huge Darkness fan when they first came out (still am) as was the gay guy that worked at Movie Gallery. After I wore my Darkness t shirt in there one day, I never paid for rental as long as he was working. We would lust for Justin Hawkins together and update each other on TV appearances, video releases and Darkness news. I wonder whatever happened to that guy…
74. My first job out of school was at a daycare out in the frigginghetto. I loved my co workers to death, but the job sucked. And the downside of working all day in the ghetto is I picked up ebonics, FAST. Which is not nesscarly a bad thing, but a white girl looks pretty dumb speaking ebonics. I still pick it up if I run into or call one of my old co workers.
75. I can hold lizards, snakes, frogs and most bugs and be okay. But I turn into a typical girl at the sight of a cock roach. YUCK!
76. I LOVE playing in the rain. The harder the downpour, the better. I especially love squishy mud puddles
77. I love, love, LOVE anything mint scented or flavored. I was thrilled to find that Bath and Body Works has a whole (overpriced) line of mint body products
78. I love scented candles. I have them on every flat surface in my bedroom. Yankee Candles are the best.
79. I'm going to have a zoo. In addition to my 3 cats and 2 ferrets, I want 2 uromastyx, 2 sugar gliders, 2 hedgehogs, a corgi, a pug and a boxer. Did I mention that I love animals?
80. I watch more MTV than I'll ever own up to. My brain feels like Jell-o and I feel like a need a shower after I watch reality TV.
81. After working in daycare I will NEVER put my children in daycare. You are handing your kids over to complete strangers to raise. Would you let one of us drive your car? Of course not. But you'll let us take your child? Just because they pass a local background check doesn't mean they're fit to take care of children.
82. I have never chewed someone else's gum or shared a lollipop with someone. I think that is disgusting.
83. I am chock full of useless information. From all the books I read and websites I visit.
84. I am a very forgiving person. A bit too forgiving.
85. I'm one of those people who has to have breakfast every morning. I don't care about the other two, but I cannot function without breakfast. Cereal or Quaker instant oatmeal in stawberries and cream are my breakfasts of choice.
86. I remember people. I can remember everyone that was in my second grade class and people I volunteered with ages ago. But I rarely speak to them because I'm not sure if they remember me and I don't want to look like a freak.
87. I think GPS is from Satan. Don't think for two seconds that the government and god knows who else isn't hacking into the system and watching your every move. Andunfortunately, all cell phones are equipped with it. You can't get away!
88. I go through spells where I have these highly realistic, "nightmeres" is the only word to decribe it. It's very un nerving. I have no idea what triggers them, but I wake up sweating and scared to go back to sleep 
89. I think my constant struggles in life and disfunctionalrelationship with my mother is conditioing me for something much bigger than this. So stay tuned
90. I used to be a very judgemental person. I went to camp in 2004, and I remember as I was bringing my stuff into the dorms, there was this bleach blondetalking loudly in the lobby. "Oh my god! No way!" I remember just being disgusted with her and thinking she was probably a shallow whore. Later that night I couldn't sleep so I went to the lobby. She and group of girls were all donw there talking. I ended up talking to them all night and got to know the girl. She was nothing like I thought. This happened to me reapeatly that week, jerk judgements proved wrong. Well, the lesson was learned well
91. I swerve for butterflies. I can't stand to see butterflies in the grills of cars
92. I love musicals and Disney movies. So High School Musical is like movie kyrptonite to me
93. I've always wanted to be in a chick band. I don't want to be famous or anything. Just get together on the weekends and bang out covers. Just for fun.
94. One of these days I'm going to finish all these half started stories I have lying around….
95. I wish I could hip hop dance. I started listening to hip hop when I was at the ghetto daycare and the dances look so cool. Especially Ciara's "1 2 Step". But curse my whiteness, I just don't have the rythym.
96. I follow Lost, Heroes and Smallville religiously. I'm a sucker for that sci-fi stuff
97. As you can probably tell, I have a very odd and quirky sense of humor. I love people whom I can play off of and laugh at my stupid jokes. And to everyone else, I'm harmless, haha.
98. The first thing Daniel said to me was that I was "an odd girl with big lips" andwanted to know "what the big deal with Star Wars" was. Not your typical pick up line, but it worked like a charm, haha. We've been together a year and a half.
99. Me and my hair have a love/hate relationship. It's natural wavy and beastly. We wrestle every morning. She usually wins 
100. I'm one of those people who talks through the whole movie. Running commentary, cracking jokes, and asking rehtorical questions. This drives a lot of people barking mad.
