This is for Susan...the only person I would probably do this sort of thing for....


6 Random Things about ME.


1. I love the really strong, pure smells. Let me offer some examples: rubbing alcohol, gasoline, bleach, fingernail polish remover and hair color/perm solution. I don't pretend to know the meaning behind this, but I assume that it must have something to do with growing up as the daughter of a hair dresser. What do you think?


2. I don't get sick from too much sugar. If I didn't think that I would blow up like a huge, fat balloon, I would eat an entire cheesecake...or a whole box of chocolate...or a whole carton of ice cream...whatever. I love sugar and it loves me too. We are best friends. But, admittedly, I have to stay away from my dear friend sugar because she likes to take up residence on my back side...and thighs...and belly....


3. Don't judge, but I really LOVE the feeling of a good sunburn. The weird skin tightening and hot/cold burn....ahhh. I DO NOT try to get sunburned...anymore...I admit that in my teenage-dom I did pursue the perfect sunburn.


4. I really like Julia Roberts movies. Most all of them actually...and I own a lot of them. I don't know why...she has big lips....I have big lips...I feel a connection...


5. I never use an alarm clock. Never have really. I seriously just tell myself what time I need to wake up and I will do it. Strange phenomenon. Also I wake up at the same time every day...the time does depend on the season...later in the winter and earlier in the summer. Right now the time is 5:29 a.m.


6. Six...I have six scars on my body. One: forehead (stitches...running with shirt pulled over head). Two: right eyelid (or eye shield as Cole would say...my older brother hit me in the eye with a vacuum cleaner hose...stitches). Three: left knee (surgery in 1995 for torn ACL, meniscus and other yucky cartilage sort of things...basketball injury). Four, Five, and Six: lower abdomen (three wonderful little boys, just leaving their mark on mommy's body as they entered this world in an unconventional sort of way).
