I hate tag.

So, Jen was tagged by someone to write ten things about herself and then she proceeded to tag me and some others. I've been dreading it but thought I would get it over with. I have seriously been thinking about this for days! I don't know if I can come up with 10 things!

1. I too love to read. I am useless once I start a book because I can't do anything until it is finished. I love Christian fiction. Some of the secular stuff just has too much filth. I like contemporary just as much as the historical fiction. I've read some allegorical but I'm not a huge fan. I don't want to have to think too much when I read. Some of my favorites are Liz Curtis Higgs, Karen Kingsbury and Lynn Austin.

2. For some reason, I love reality t.v. And not just the usual stuff like Survivor and Amazing Race (my favorite!) I even like the shows that go into real peoples lives like Little People Big World on TLC and on A&E they have Gene Simmons(from KISS) Family Jewels. This show cracks me up because this guy totally views himself as the cool rocker dude and then in his family life he is totally whipped by his long-time girlfriend/wife and his kids make fun of him. They are actually a pretty normal family and not at all like the Osbournes. His daughter is 13 and very modest and plays volleyball. His son seems very intelligent and witty. They aren't disrespectful toward him, they just laugh at him like any of us laugh at our parents. I don't know why I like these shows. Eric gives me a hard time. I think I just really enjoy watching happy normal families and am very interested in how they live.

3. My dream job would be an elementary school librarian. I have even thought about getting my masters in it but I know that it would be so hard to get a job. They are in such low demand and a lot of schools are cutting them down to part-time.

4. I'm not proud but when I was 18, I got a Minor in Possession of Alcohol ticket. It was my first year at the junior college in my hometown and my friends and I thought we were cool and went to the coast for spring break. I think we thought it would be like MTV but it totally wasn't. We got caught in a Hotel 6 parking lot holding our bottles. When we went to court the judge moved it to an infraction and we had to pay fines. It's still embarassing though.

5. I am extremely afraid of rodents and cockroaches. All rodents- even hamsters freak me out. I don't know what happened because when i was a little girl, I had a hamster. Now though, I want to cry even thinking about rats.

6. I love step aerobics! I totally miss my gym back in Iowa. The gyms out here just have pilates, spin, and other classes that don't sound interesting to me. I just want some good old fashioned step. I went to one spin class and I picture that as what hell is like.

7. Someday, I want to build a house for habitat-for-humanity. I think it would be so cool to build something like that from the ground up and see your efforts come to life. Maybe it is because my dad was always in that line of work. I once helped him build a deck and it was so fun to me. I want to learn how to use power tools and build stuff!

8. I am the worst decision maker! I will just continually go back and forth and when I do make a decision, I'll regret it later no matter what I decided. I have always been a follower and when adults used to say things like, "Do you want to be leader or a follower?" Inside I was always saying, "Follow, Follow!" I have gotten better at this since I've gotten older and have let the teacher in me come out.

9. My husband is my best friend. I feel so comfortable sharing my heart with him and being silly with him. As pessimistic as he can be at times, he is always optimistic when I need him to be. He makes me laugh like nowone else I've met.

10. Last one! ummm, Oh ya! I actually like watching ESPN. My favorite show is Pardon the Interruption. Well, I like it when it is not on all the time and I'm not watching the same Sportscenter for the 5th time. I don't like Cold Pizza either because Skip bugs me. Occasionally they'll have these pieces about kids who they make their Sports wishes come true like Make-a-Wish and I am always in tears!

So that's it. It was hard. I would tag 5 people like Jen did but most of the people who read this and have a blog have already been tagged. You know what that means Cheri!! You are the only one so tag, your it.
