Name something random about yourself

I can touch my tongue to my nose
I like burnt popcorn
When I was little my imaginary friends name was barbaque
My best friend broke my nose in middle school softball
Im the first one out of my close hs friends to have a baby
I hate the layer of ice at the bottom of marinos italian ices

I have a scar on my left knee when I fell chasing the Mr. Softee truck
I broke my two front teeth in half in 7th grade by falling off a human pyramid
I am petrified of knives

I LOVE fountain soda.
I have a rod and 12 screws in my spine.
I would rather have dogs than children.
I hate having people touch my feet (pedicures etc)

I have an issue with patterns and if you walk around my house or looked in my closet 99% of the things I own and decorate with are solid colors.

Ian Ziering is my third cousin.

I had my tonsils out when I was 18.

I've lived in 8 different apartments in NYC in 8 years.

DH and I are both left handed.

I can roll my stomach (its my hidden talent---DH is completely grossed out by it).

Today is the last day of my 20's

I love to run, especially distance runs. I'm running the Phildadelphia Half Marathon in November and the L.I Half Marathon in May.

I broke my ankle Sophmore year of college at the beginning of a cheerleading routine...I still did the entire routine.

I don't eat fast food at all. I think its gross.

Colleen, I should go to the Philly one and cheer you on! .

-One of the many reasons I know I'm pregnant is because I've been craving ice cream with peanut butter sauce. I haven't eaten peanut butter since I was a little kid because I think it's one of the most vile foods/smells on the planet.

-My favorite color is orange.

-I was on a research team for a year where I got to travel across the country and interview students about their lives. My colleagues called me the Barbara Walters of student affairs because I constantly had students crying. Nonetheless, best experience ever.

-One of my ancestors signed the Declaration of Independence, and he has a common NY road named after him. When you go on Francis Lewis Blvd., think of me!

-I sat next to Lindsay Lohan at a Backstreet Boys concert pre-Mean Girls. She was really nice and signed autographs for everyone; I had no clue who she was.

-I am working on a manuscript to publish a book of poetry.

I stepped on a piece of glass when I was 5. My father decided to play doctor and assumed he got it out. 22 years later, while I was training, my foot began to hurt, after weeks of xrays, crutches and a scheduled foot surgery, that chunk of glass came out of my foot about 2 inches from where it went in. The design on the glass confirmed it was the same glass from when I was 5. This piece of glass now sits in a shadow box that I gave dear old dad as a present and a reminder to never assume he's a doctor again.
