I was tagged by Katie!

1. I can't really smell. I can smell things if they are really strong and right under my nose. But, if I think about something I make myself smell it. If someone talks about pizza I start smelling it.

2. I get extreme satisfaction from buying things. Well actually, going shopping. I love shopping, and I buy stuff all the time. This is not good for our budget, so I also return about half of what I buy. I know, it's retarded, but I do it.

3. Since I love shopping, I always go SLOW. This drives people crazy I'm sure, but I like to think about every purchase I make, so I avoid returning more. The longer I take, the less I buy. Jae should never go shopping with me :)

4. I'm always surprised when I look in the mirror. I generally think I'm cute, then I look at myself, and think wow, not that cute.

5. When I eat up chicken there can't be any fat or veins or tendons on the part I eat. I waste a lot of it that way, but I can't bring myself to eat it if I can see it. I don't buy it that often now, because it takes forever to get all the fat off, and I throw away at least 1/3 of it. I think my mom would be horrified.

6. Dead fish freak me out. I literally will scream if you come at me with a dead fish. If it's alive it's ok, but I can't deal with dead ones. It totally grosses me out that people cook a whole fish and serve it to you like that, with the head STILL ON!! If it is still in the shape of the animal it came from, I can't eat it!

7. When we watch the Incredibles, I cry when the mom is on the plane with the kids and they're about to get blown up every time. I've seen it at least 15 times, and I've cried every time. Even if it's on and I'm not watching it, if I can hear it I cry. Not sobbing, but definitely tears. Also, I cry when people clap at the end of things. I think it's mosly standing ovations. I have no idea why this is, but it's embarassing!

I am pretty sure no one is going to want to be my friend after all this! I am weird! But it was fun anyway. I tag Emily, Andrea, Jessica, Molly, Kendra, Carly and Kara. And if you don't do it I think 7 random bad things will happen to you! Within 7 minutes of each other. Each lasting 7 seconds. So you better do it.

Those are AWESOME- and by the way, I do the same thing with chicken- if I see it, I HAVE to cut it out. That is SO funny!!!!

Also, I almost forgot, those pictures are SO cute!!! Ava loves swinging too, she will do it the entire time we are at the park and love it, then fall asleep as soon as we get in the car.

Oh Manda, I am SO glad that I am not the only goof that crys at that exact same spot on the Incredibles! I can't tell you how many times I've seen it, too...and yet, I still cry. :o) Do you find that since you became a mom you are much more emotional over things like that? I cry over a lot more cheesy stuff than I used to (and I always try to hide it!). For crying out loud, I cry when Tinker Bell flys over Disneyland castle during the fireworks. Does that make me weird? maybe I've revealed too much. ;o)

Ha! #2 and 4 are totally me too! I love to shop--spend a ton of money, then decide I should return some of it! And I will look at myself in the mirror after being out somewhere and think--why didn't I look in a mirror before I left! I usually look like a mess!
