THINGS ABOUT ME

I really enjoyed reading Casandra's post about herself. I thought it would be fun to post 50 things about myself.
1- I can't stand an adult tattle tail. I have no patience for full grown people acting like they're in first grade. 2- I don't like cake. Especially the store bought kind with 6 layers of gross frosting. The only cake I do like is white/yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Home made. 3- Some people think I'm a hypocondriac, but I just like to get a laugh out of people by coming up with different diseases and ailments. Right now I still have testicle cancer, narcolepsy, spina bifita, and carple tunnel syndrome. The problem with this is that nobody believes me when I have a real injury or sickness. 4- I have a strong fear of going bald. I guess it won't really matter if I do lose my hair, but I'd like to keep it as long as possible. 5- I prefer girls/women to have long hair (at least shoulder length). 6- I love wild amusment park rides. Six flags is heaven. 7- I didn't get to play high school sports because of a heart condition... and I'm STILL bitter about it. 8- I wish I could play a guitar & piano really well. I know some day I'll learn how to play them both. 9- I'm no longer a picky eater. I can pretty much eat anything put in front of me. 10- I hate shaving! 11- I've often wanted to try stand up comedy. I think I have a certain randomness that many people would find funny. 12- I had a reoccuring dream for years, and I found myself in the exact place I had dreamed about for years. 13- Turkey Steak is my favorite food. 14- I can't stand country music. 15- I have a nervous habit of biting my finger nails. Jazz games and intense movies are a problem. 16- I am one of the poor souls that enjoys reality T.V. 17- I get cold very easily and it takes forever to warm back up. I can stand in a hot shower for 10 minutes and still have goosebumps when I get out. 18- I don't like water. I have to drink Gatorade or Powerade to play sports, and I have to drink Soda or Lemondade when I go out to eat somewhere. Water just doesn't cut it. 19- I am NOT a capable hadyman. If something needs fixing, I usually can't fix it myself. 20- Summer is by far my favorite season. 21- Winter is my least favorite.
22- I own a speedo and wear it a few times a year (against Alyssa's wishes ;o). 23- Comedies are my favorite kind of movie but I feel like classic comedies are dying off. It seems like film makers just try to push the envelope of what's appropriate rather than making quality movies. 24- I love my wife Alyssa and don't know what I'd do without her. 25- I like to cook sometimes. 26- I am HORRIBLE at wrapping gifts. It's gotten to the point that I just use bags now. I rarely attempt to wrap gifts anymore. 27- I enjoy golfing, but I'm not very good at it (not many people are). 28- Cigarette smoke makes me nautious. 29- I am content doing nothing at all for long periods of time. 30- I think leather jackets look stupid. 31- I won about $50 the one and only time I have ever gambled at a casino. 32- I love to wear hats but I have to leave the bill straight or I get a headache. 33- I'm scared of small children. 34- I once broke my hand punching another kid in the face. 35- I don't really like having conversations with people I don't know. I know this sounds weird but I hate having to act interested in something I'm not. This doesn't mean I never enjoy talking with people, because I like talking with family and friends. I like talking about things I'm interested in. I just don't care for forced conversation. (hard to explain that one I guess) 36- I love taking baths, but rarely fit in any tub so I can't usually take a bath. 37- I have a fear of bad breath so I typically chew about 10 peices of gum a day. If I think I have bad breath I will never talk towards another person. 38- I like to run. 39- I am terified of snakes. 40- I have become a light sleeper. I have to check the door locks personally and make sure the stove is turned off before I can fall asleep. 41- I feel like I can get along with almost anybody. 42- I hate to lose at anything. 43- I freeze up on tests. I could study for days and still second guess my answers.
44- I still enjoy watching the old Tom and Jerry cartoons. 45- I believe most people are bad drivers. 46- I believe I am a very good driver. 47- I would never want to move outside of Utah for any reason. I love the four seasons and the pretty mountains. 48- I don't like how scrawny I am. 49- I love seeing animals out in the wild (except for snakes). 50- I had my tonsils out last year and it was one of the worst experiences of my life.

These are fun to read! Dalin's favorite show to watch is Tom and Jerry. When it comes to tests I feel ya, I freeze up too, no matter how hard I've studied. The speedo thing is gross and just think Dad went bald very early in life, so you might be okay in that area. Unless you follow mom's pattern then you could end up like Grandpa Dan, and he's still got some hair. Dan is always VERY concerned about hair loss, but what can you do? I really don't think Rogain works! HaHaHa.

I'd like to know what the re-occuring dream was, that sounds interesting. -You are SO Randy about your non-water drinking. -Like you, I always have to check the stove and lock before bed. I actually feel a little OCD about it. If I even think that maybe I saw it wrong, I go back and check again.
