it's mandee's fault.

i think it's like 6 uncommonly known facts about me. this is really hard because i love all the weird things about myself and proudly tell everyone. like my obsession with peas (they are delicious) and my fetish with the x-files, and the fact the A Little Princess is my all time favorite movie. But, I will try.

1. i guess this isn't TOO unknown. my family, janina, and dan know this. but i love black licorice. i think that it is wonderful. dan hates it and won't kiss me when i eat it. maybe he really would, but he doesn't like the smell at all.

2. I am seriously afraid of the dark and being home alone at night. I guess a lot of people are, but I will not sleep if I am at home alone. Here is the unknown part: when I was in high school, maybe even my freshman year of college actually, I was staying at my dad's house which at the time was MASSIVE and I had the entire downstairs to myself and I was home alone with two other floors on top of me and a huge unfenced back yard. Anyways, long story... but I got REALLY freaked out and heard some definite noises and called the police and had them come check out the yard and entire house. They didn't find anything and I was really embarrassed. I will get so scared sometimes that I devise serious and detailed plans of what would happen in various attack situations and even practiced. Other times I have locked myself in my room and hid in the closet or under the bed. I am ridiculous.

3. I love sleeping outside. When I was younger, in the summer I would sleep outside almost every night on the trampoline or on the hammock.

4. I secretly like Laguna Beach, The Hills., and The Simple Life.. I am embarrassed to admit this. I think only Dan knows that I watch it sometimes. Even I, myself, have no idea why I watch it. I sit there and think to myself how stupid it is... but I watch it anyway. I have no idea what my issue is. Well, The Simple Life is actually funny.

5. I hate bacon. Again, some people know this... but I think it is so incredibly disgusting. It is covered in fat and is just... not good tasting. Bacon bits on salad are horrid. And I am completely appalled with the fact that Wendy's has that "Baconator" burger.... ewww.

6. I don't like wearing shoes and socks. Unlike the majority of girls, I could care less about shoes. In fact, I don't really like how many shoes look... most are ugly and I hate shoe shopping. I would go barefoot all the time if I could. Also, on the same topic... I have only worn any sort of high heel.... or any heel at all... twice in my entire life and I definitely cannot walk in heels to save my life.

That probably was not very exciting... but... oh well!
I tag... Mary, Danielle, my mom, and DAN!

ch-ch-ch-ch-changes.

This is our new townhouse! Just the inside, nothing of the outside. We are going to paint the entire house... hopefully most of it before we get married. Last night we bought couches and are getting a really nice coffee table from my generous dad and step mom... really the only thing else we need is a dining room set! We are supposed to sign all the papers and get the keys by thursday!!! Keep your fingers crossed. I am really excited. 3 weeks from this time today, Dan and I will be married :) yay!
Today Pam, my mom and I went to go pick our my flowers and went out to lunch and Laurie came too. I also took pictures of my car cause I am going to sell it and post it on craig's list tonight. I am going to miss that thing. Let me know if you know of anyone who is interested!!!

big daddy self adhesive chest hair.

This was the greatest halloween discovery, the chest hair. It was so stinkin HOT... I really couldn't keep my hands off of it. I was a cowgirl, obviously... and I even had a sweet cap gun with a haulster (is that how you spell that?). I really wanted to be Dan's ho... but I didn't know how to make that look even semi appropriate... his was just funny.

What else is new? We had the inspection on the townhouse... there are MICE in the crawl space! SICK! And the upstairs smoke alarm doesn't work, and the lint shoot... or whatever the tube is that goes from the dryer to outside is completely blocked up, and then there was one other thing, all minor things though, the foundation is totally solid, no cracks or anything, it's in really good shape.
