NWR: 5 random facts

Original post by marrymybestfriend

give five random facts about yourself...

1. when pumping gas, i have to have it go until i get it to an even dollar amount, then add on one cent. so for example, i will put in $30.01.

2. when i'm writing something (on paper), if i make an error, i will scrap the entire page and rewrite it all

3. i can watch a movie once, and have select parts memorized to a T

4. i always have to have a nickname for everyone

5. if you locked me in a room with nothing but a pen and a blank notebook, i could keep myself occupied for weeks.

Re: NWR: 5 random facts

1. When I was younger I made all kinds of all star teams in baseball, got to play in Yankees and Shea stadiums and got drafted out of HS.

2. I live on Roosevelt Island, and when most people here this they tell me they have never heard of it before or met anyone from there until me.

3. I started my job very young (age 20) and I will be 40 when I am able to retire with full pension and benefits...

4. I am insane about sports to the point of sometimes depending on how my team may have lost the game, I could be in a bad mood....

5. Last year I lost 50 lbs on Weight Watchers, and I have since gained 30 back... Gotta get back on the wagon....

Re: NWR: 5 random facts

Here it goes:

1. I love and am obsessed with anything and everything that has to do with water: beach, pool, scuba diving, sailing, swimming, skiing, etc. I guess that the Pisces in me :)

2. I can't stand it when the refridgerator isn't organized (stuff on the wrong shelf, etc), it seriously drives me crazy

3. Cheese - I am addicted to it

4. I will eat anything and everything (and will try anything once), however, I LOATHE anything that has capers or licorice in it. Yuck.

5. I love to drive....seriously. I get bored as a passenger. FH also loves to drive - so this tends to become an issue on long car trips lol

Adding a 6: Lived in Prague for a few months while studying abroad which made me appreciate different cultures. That was the best few months of my life (execpt meeting FH of course!)

#1- My life is the funniest thing EVER. I promise you, if it were the Truman show, you would all be watching. I personally get annoyed because the humor is usually at my expense
#2 I really am one of the nicest people you will ever meet
#3 Im an awesome baker, but I tend to bake at 3am so no one is around to eat it hot
#4 I believe I have a mental imperfection that make me unable to lie....
#5 I HATE when people are messy and unorganized yet its okay for me.

Re: NWR: 5 random facts

1. I am extremely sarcastic. It gets me in a lot of trouble with people who don't know me well.

2. Unless I'm in a rush I will spell all the words in my text messages out and use proper punctuation and spelling. i.e, I will not type 'u' for 'you' or '4' for 'for'. It just looks sloppy to me. It makes me want to get a red pen out and start correcting it.

3. I love to sleep. Seriously. I love it. If I've got nothing to do for an entire day I will lay in bed watch bad movies and sleep.

4. I knew I loved my fiance from the first moment I met him. I had never felt that way before and it freaked me right out.

5. I am smart. Not scientific genius smart, but smart. I learn very quickly and do very well at work, etc. but I was a bad student until I went on to get my 2nd bachelors degree.
