My Five Things

Okay, so I got tagged by Deb to write 5 things about myself that people don't know. Well, that's a little difficult, since it's hard to find something that NO ONE knows, but here's 5 little known factoids about yours truly:

1. Despite owning an original Nintendo System and spending an unusually large number of hours playing Super Mario Bros., I have never once beaten the game. Why? Because everytime I was fighting Bowser in the last level (Level 8, I believe), Shayne (my step-brother at the time) would turn the thing off... EVERY TIME. Now, you may be wondering, why is it that he was always around when I was playing it? Good question... No idea!

2. I have had an irrational fear of getting the back of my skirt caught in my panties and walking around with it stuck there in public ever since reading about a story like this in the "Embarassing Moments" of YM magazine when I was like 11...

3. Speaking of skirts, when I was younger, I refused to wear pants. Seriously. I was a dress/skirt only kid for a long time, and when I did break into pants, I refused to wear jeans... Sweat pants only! haha

4. There are several words that I still cannot say at age 21. Among them are animal, ambulance, cemetary, and cinnamon.

5. I have very serious texture issues with food. Namely, if I find the texture of a food weird, I'll throw it up and won't eat it. Some foods I can't handle include whole wheat bread, most vegetable pizza toppings (mushrooms, peppers, onions, pineapple), tapioca pudding, and squash.
