My friend Suz tagged me! I've never done one of these before, but I had fun reading hers so I decided to give it a try. Let's get started.

7 Random Things about Me:

  1. After flying dozens and dozens of times, I still have NEVER been in an airplane bathroom! Not on a domestic flight, not on an international flight, not even on an overseas flight. Sitting in an aisle seat and watching passengers file past me over and over to take a turns in the likely-not-so-clean airborne lavatory is too much for me ~ I can just picture the germ party going on in there!
  2. I think spatially in 2d and 3d pictures and have done so as long as I can remember. My calendar, days of the week, alphabet, numbers, years, just about everything has it's own picture/diagram that I reference in my head. Jim had me draw everything out once on paper. It was pretty interesting and unlike anything he'd ever imagined.
  3. I have a very good sense of direction, something that I got from my dad. I think this goes hand in hand with my spacial thinking because I just reference maps in my mind. After almost 8 years of marriage, Jim now concedes that I usually know the correct and fastest way to get somewhere. He no longer minds me trying to give him directions.
  4. My good sense of direction holds true EXCEPT when I am pregnant. When I'm with child my internal compass gets all scrambled, and I just get us lost! Once baby is is in the backseat instead of the belly, I'm back on track.
  5. I tend to over analyze things at times. Enough said. No sense in over analyzing my habit of over analyzing, right?
  6. I love Snickers bars, and I have a methodical way of eating them. Ever since I was little, I nibble off all the chocolate along the sides first then off the bottom. After that I eat the candy bar with the top chocolate layer still in tact. This allows you to better taste the nutty nougat center. It's true. Go ahead, give it a try.
  7. I bite my lips. I bite my cheeks. I can't stop. Sometimes it's a nervous habit. Sometimes I just think it's fun.

Well, enough about me. I'm tagging Meghan, Lindsey, Meredith, Suzanne G, and Becca. If you care to share girls, I look forward to reading your randoms!

Lindsey says:

Fun! I'm curious about your spatial thinking now!
I'm just wondering if you still have an eyebrow-plucking fetish. I don't know why that's stuck with me all these years, but since it has, I have to ask!

Lindsey, you must have a steel trap mind! Did I talk you into letting me pluck yours way back when or something?? Actually, I  have never had my eyebrows waxed and do still like to pluck. Thankfully I've never been overzealous ~ just like to tidy up!

Leslie, I totally eat a Snickers bar like that too!  I also do that with York Peppermint Patties.  I nibble off all the chocolate on the sides and then take the chocolate off the bottom and top.  Then I eat the refreshingly minty center. Glad I'm not the only one when it comes to Snickers! smile

Stacy Miller says:

I too think spatially (days, weeks, years, numbers). I never knew you did too.  I've tried to explain it to people before, and I just get this blank stare.  I also spell out everyone's name in my head when I think of them or am talking to them.  Do you do that?

You rock Meghan! I've never met anyone as particular as me about their Snickers!

That's cool Stace! I assumed everyone thought that way until I told Jim and got that blank stare too! It's since come up at dinner parties and such, and I'm always having to try to explain myself. I don't spell out people's names, but that's pretty interesting. I wonder if that helps you recall people's names faster and easier?
