Random things about me:
1. I am a terrible speller.
2. I have had the worst spring ever. Just a lot of things combined to make it positively horrid. I'm hoping for a better summer, but it doesn't look promising. Some days there just aren't enough drugs to make things look better.
3. I hate blue eyeshadow. I try to wear it--navy, not baby--and it always looks like hell. Boo hiss on blue.
4. I just bought two new lispsticks--that long wear Cover Girl stuff-- and two new tubes of mascara--one regular Lash Blast and another waterproof Lash Something or Other. These are the only Cover Girl products I would ever buy. I have bad memories of everything CG smelling like Noxema, so I have an aversion. I wear a lot of L'Oreal and Milani lately with just a touch of Tarte.
5. I have a callous on the bottom of my foot that is driving me infuckingsane. How do I get rid of this? I've never had one before. I'm guessing it's from wearing high heels so much.
6. I have recently discovered how to email from my cell phone. How did I not know this was possible? I love it.
Am not tagging anyone yet---will go back and do that in a bit.

I've Been Tagged--EIGHT RANDOM THINGS ABOUT ME

1. I've got the paperwork filled out to join the DAR should I ever choose to. Could also be in the Mayflower Society. Maybe when I'm older and have time to go to the meetings?
2. I've performed marriage ceremonies...three, I think. Can't remember exactly. I did them when I was a county commissioner, which is legal here in Tennessee.
3. I have bitten my fingernails as long as I can remember.
4. I cannot whistle. At all.
5. I've not had a carbonated beverage of any kind since September 2006. Don't plan on having one, either.
6. I think lima beans are the best beans. Could eat them every day.
7. The only "real" relationships that I had while I was in college were with guys that I knew from high school.
8. My best friend's husband is a defensive cooridinator/coach/something in the Canadin Football League.
I'm now tagging Puffy, Momma, and Tonya.

Dear Buggy has finally surfaced online just as I was about to start worrying about her again. She had a good idea, so here goes:
Things You* Don't Know About Me:
*you meaning most of you--I can't really keep everything straight from all my circles of friends and such
1. I have lost a ton of weight over the past several months. I have more to go...not much, but enough that I am obsessive about it.
2. Because of the fat thing, I haven't worn my wedding rings in years. Am wearing my solitare as I type right now. It's still a wee bit tight, but it is on, which is more than it would have done this time last year.
3. I can wiggle my ears.
4. My first "serious" (interpret that as you may) boyfriend was two years younger than me. I was 16 at the time. That means he was only a wee bit older than my oldest child is now. I am horrified at the idea of him dating someone so much older.
5. I could easily go the rest of my life without exercising and not feel the slightest bit guilty, but I'd get fat again, so no go.
6. I can eat the same thing for every meal for days on end.
7. I hate to cook.
8. I cannot spell worth a damn.
9. I am terrible about keeping in touch with old friends. Simply terrible.
10. I miss the old goofy threads from OT with Buggy, pooh, Dweeze, Fester, landrua, sami, misto and Co. I'm old. Old. Old. Old.

Yeah, I don't even really know what this means--I think I need sleep. Speaking of things I don't really grasp, I will confess here and now that I had absolutely no frigging clue that guiddity was a word. Furthermore, I would have thought that it was one of those fake, made-up, Harry Potteresque kind of words. Who knew? The most insipidly easy Word of the Day generator actually taught me something. I guess that speaks volumes about me, doesn't it?
