I subscribed to your blog so that's one thing we have in common, now here are some others.
9. Perhaps I wasn’t disgustingly skinny but I was pretty dang thin, what happened?
11. I work in HR too.
13. I’m not afraid of heights but I too love the rush of a good coaster. The higher and faster the better.
28. I was in love with John and Roger. I met Simon once and made an idiot of myself.
32. Bags, purses, you name it, I love them, they’re my crack.
43. Impulse shopper and marketers dream, if it has cool packaging I’ll buy it.
46. Who wouldn’t? How I wish Edward were real!
48. I cry constantly, I’m consistently making a fool of myself.
52. I firmly believe my life is better for having ready these books.
69. No dressing but a little fresh lemon is nice.
77. I have my Raggedy Ann blankie, Mom gave it to me for Christmas as a surprise a couple years ago. I cried like a baby (see #48).
85. Geeks R Us.
86. They say you gotta be in it to win it but I’m holding out hope someone will just walk up to me and hand me gobs of cash.
88. I used to be a Girl Scout leader.
90. My first name should be clumsy. If I can trip over it, spill it, fall on it, fall in it, drop it, or anything else of that ilk I will.
92. Glad containers are my best friend.
93. Can’t carry a tune in a bucket.
95. I’ve forced myself to read a lot more lately and I’m so happy.
96. Crafting is fairly new to me and I love it!
100. Thank you for sharing all the crazy stuff about you!
Stopping through for the UBP- so very nice to meet you :)

I loved that list of 100 things about you! I think every blogger should have one, lol. And be totally honest!
Okay I used to be really skinny, too (plus I kept forgetting to eat while I was falling for my now-hubby - can you say twitterpated? lol).
I love french fries and ketchup but I really like mine dipped in honey.
I hate doing dishes too.
My house is perpetually messy (I have a 10-month-old who never stops!)
I love the beach.
I can't dance either.
I cry too easily, too.
I love the harry potter books too!
I've dyed my hair... this brings to mind the fact that my hubby doesn't think I should dye my hair when it goes gray - I don't want to look old in four or five years though! Aaaah!
Aaand I'm clumsy too, I don't like making lists about myself either, I love to read, I do too many crafts (and never finish them), I love baking cookies more than anything else, and I hate spongebob too! Do I get an extra entry for reading all 100??? Or just your undying love? lol
Thanks for the giveaway! I'm an MT and really want these chicbuds so I'll look oh-so-cool while transcribing Radiology reports. ;-)
