I was tagged by The Juice Is Worth The Squeeze in a fun post where I am supposed to tell you 10 honest things about me that you may already know.
Scary, right! So, here goes nothing!
(they love taking baths)
1. I have an obsession with cleaning my ears. I have since I was a little girl. I remember I got the end of a Q-Tip stuck in my ear when I was tiny, and my dad told me never to stick anything smaller than my elbow in my ear. My mom had to clean them for me for about 2 years after that incident. I still have the obsession - and didn't listen to his advice. oops.
2. I have a flat out, psycho fear of vomit. We all hate it, right? Well, my fear is probably like yours of spiders, snakes, or heights. Its that real. I turn into a nervous wreck and I have missed out on a lot of things in life because of this fear. Amusement Parks, airplanes, bars, anywhere with lots of people, I get nervous.
3. Up to this point in my life, the hardest thing I have ever gone through was losing my mom's best friend "my second mom" Barb my senior year of HS. I remember being there the night she died - those memories are the most vivid ones I have ever had.
4. I pop my knuckles. Bad. Not even when I am nervous - I just always do it.
5. I talk to myself. I think it has something to do with my really strong inner consciousness. I talk myself into things. I am extremely spiritual.
6. I love kissing my weenie dogs, especially on top of their little ears. They are so soft - and sometimes I will go for 5 minutes just giving them as many kisses as possible. I am that crazy dog lady.
7. I am so unoriginal. I am the combined artwork of everyone I know. I love finding things I love in others and copying them.
8. I am scared of the dark. I get all shaky at 3 in the morning when I leave for work. I turn on every light in the house - and I always think the headlights in the car behind me are after me. Dork, right?!
9. My parents are my favorite people in the whole world. I am comfortable saying they are 2 of the most incredible people in the world - for their very own unique reasons. Honestly, I wish they would write a book so I could raise my kids the way they raised my sisters and I. They are pretty dang close to perfect.
10. When I was running the yesterday, I was thinking about my wedding dress and veil and I got goosebumps. I spent the whole run thinking about TL and that special day - I forgot I was running.
Okay - enough about me!

Don't worry...I take ideas from other people too to create. I think something always comes from something else. I love that you are crazy dog lady and thanks for offering to take the pup. Glad he has a home now. :) I get afraid of the dark too...when my roomies weren't home I kept all of the lights on except mine because I was a scaredy cat. he he. Have a great day love!
You are such a beautiful person- inside and out! I am obsessed with cleaning my ears too! I can never imagine getting out of the shower without doing so! Ha! Lovely post :) XOXO

Awesome list! We have to much in common! =)

Thanks for the tag beautiful girl. I will try and add it to my blog as soon as possible. I've been soooooo busy lately trying to get everything packed for my big move.
First, I LOVE your wedding shoes! And I had such fun reading your 10 things. What you wrote about your parents was so sweet!
Doin' it now lady!
And vomiting scares the bejesus out of me too. Just another reason we're the same person.
ROCK ON SISTA!! GREAT LIST! I am looking forward to having a few moments to post my 10 things! I am proud to say I knew pretty close ALL of the things you listed... as only a sister should!
Great post!! I also am obsessed wiith cleaning my ears. And I love that you kiss your weenie dogs in excess- I am the same with way with my kitties! Something about puppy/kitty ears/noses... irresistable!

Oh my gosh I'm terrified of vomit too! And I'm always convinced that people driving behind me are following me home!
Aww, I love to kiss my little doggy too! They're just so snuggly.
Aww, I love to kiss my little doggy too! They're just so snuggly.
that was great! I have an obsession with using q-tips too, glad to hear I am not the only one! And those dogs are too cute!!
Awww thanks for the tag! You are so sweet! I'll do mine on Monday!! And I am totally scared of vomit too!
OMG! Vomit and the Dark scare me too. Thanks for sharing your honesty!
I loved your list! I am obsessed with Qtips as well, and TERRIFIED of vomit. I laughed out loud when you said you always think the car behind you is following you-I do that all the time and get SOOOO scared!
I'm so sorry to hear about your second Mom! xo
omg i tho you talking about me in the first fact hahaha. i can relate :]
This was a fun post to read! I'm also obsessed with cleaning my ears, and the ears of my boyfriend haha! I definitely agree about the 3am darkness thing...I'm such a scaredy cat when it comes to that sort of thing!
4,5,6 Totally can relate!
thanks for the tag!!
and dont feel dorky about being scared of the dark! ditto :)
I'm with you on the dark. I avoid staying home alone at all costs! p.s. Your weddings shoes are beyond fabulous!
I love getting to know my blog friends better and I am a crazy dog lady too. I treat Chase (our littlest) like a baby. Hubby says that our dogs are very spoiled.
The way that you fear vomit sounds like the way that I fear snakes! I am terrified.
I don't "talk to myself" but rather, I say my thoughts out loud. I think there's a distinct difference. You probably are like me where you just have to say some things out loud, you know, while walking around or whatever and there are those who have conversations with themselves. That might be a little crazy, but, we're not crazy.
OMG I have an obsession with cleaning my ears too! lol My fiance thinks it's so weird. haha I'm also scared of the dark too. Well actually...it's more of a "I don't like sleeping alone" thing.
Tracy you're a rockstar! ;)
Oh im scared of the dark xoxox
Those dogs are so cute! And I used to pop my knuckles all the time too. Ugh. I had to stop but it was a hard habit to break.
Love #10! And I am so with you on #s 2 & 5! Loved this post, darling!
xoxox,

For some reason I always convince myself that the car behind me is following me as well, ha! Just found your blog & am looking forward to reading more!
Your doggies are adorable. I love that shot of them in the tub with the soap bubbles!
xo,
Jessica
Your #1 made me laugh. In the shower I will always turn the shower head to a thick stream and turn so that it goes directly into my ears. I don't know why, but I love the feeling. I am sure that it isn't good for them either, but I still do it.
I am with you on the vomit too. I don't know how I am going to be a Mom that cleans up after her kids because it will make me sick too.
I pop my knuckles too - I swear I've done it since elementary school and its a habit I've never been able to get rid of, bad bad bad!
