I decided to think 100 more things. This actually took a lot longer than the first 100 did. You can see the first 100 at the link under my profile photo.

101. If I could, I would never wear the same pair of socks twice. I love the feeling of new socks!

102. I make really good chili.

103. I hate fake watermelon flavor.

104. I hate Jolly Ranchers.

105. I can swaddle a baby in my arms, standing up, without putting the baby or the blanket down.

106. I get migraines.

107. I have panic attacks occasionally.

108. I love old musicals.

109. And Katherine Hepburn movies!

110. I am allergic to cockroaches. (Really truly, I just got tested!)

111. Kiwi too.

112. I have read the Reader’s Digest since I was 8 years old.

113. My parents used to ground me from reading when I was a kid because it was the worst punishment they could throw at me.

114. I won the Fargo Public Library’s Children’s Reading Contest 2 years in a row (3rd and 4th grade). One summer I read 413 books. They discontinued the contest after that year because some other parents thought I lied. I didn’t.

115. I enjoy singing at funerals.

116. I have greenish brown eyes. They are just like my Gramma’s.

117. My children’s middle names are after realtives: Jonas Jeffery for my Father in Law and Margaret Donna for my Gramma.

118. I’m really not sure if I’m finished having kids.

119. I don’t like Mangos.

120. I love fresh pineapple.

121. I have never been dumped.

122. But I have had a broken heart.

123. I like my in-laws.

124. I find ovetures irritating. Get on with the show already!

125. It bugs me when people use plural pronouns in association with singular subjects. And people do this a lot. Just stop. OK?

126. It doesn’t bug me at all when people end a sentace with “with.” As in, do you want to come with? It’s not bad grammer- it’s a North Dakota Colliquillism. There is a difference

127. I love parmesan cheese!

128. I used to be a Pampered Chef consultant. I did it to get all of the goodies- once I got them all, I quit. Now I do a show once a year to keep up with the new toys.

128.5. I went into preterm labor twice, both times were on the same day that I had a Pampered Chef show planned for myself.

128.8. I’m not suspicious, but if I ever have another baby I won’t have a single Pampered Chef show while I’m pregnant, unless it is time to give birth.

129. Noisy neighbors drive me crazy.

129.5 We have good neighbors now, but we have had several really weird, rude, pot smoking wackos before. I called the cops on every one of them and even got one evicted. It’s not that I’m mean; they truly were dangerous people, always drunk or high or having boyfriends come over and smash up the place (and the girl). I could do at least five posts just on some of these weird neighbors.

130. I like to eat eggs.

131. I tend to walk around stores grabbing what I want, then thinking better of it and putting items back.

132. I would like a dog someday. But not right now.

133. I tend to switch numbers around without knowing it. That caused major problems in algebra.

134. I flunked algebra twice with effort in high school.

135. I took almost all AP and honors classes in high school, except for the math. My teachers couldn’t figure me out.

136. I passed stats in college.

137. I can conduct music.

138. I don’t like shopping for clothes for myself.

144. I’ve shoveled snow off of my roof before.

145. I know what 70 degrees below zero feels like.

146. I don’t like to have a television on unless I am watching it.

147. My favorite radio program is the Minnesota Public Radio morning show. It has the best mix of eclectic music and starts every day off with the poem of the day at 6 am read by Garrison Keeler. Since I live in California, I really, really miss it!

148. I don’t deal well with gore or violence. I upsets me.

149. I once did a cannonball off of the high dive. It was an extremely painful lapse in judgement.

150. I used to be on a swim team. I discovered I like to swim, but I hate to compete.

151. I really hate to be forced to be perky and upbeat.

152. I’m not a super encouraging person. I say what I mean. If I have complimented you- I meant it.

153. People who are always uber encouraging kind of sicken me.

154. I used to really enjoy writing poetry. I won first and third prize in a contest once.

155. I rarely say I’m sorry. I think saying I’m sorry is lip service.

156. I want to hear you say, “I was wrong.”

157. I know how to use a semi colon; that makes me special.

158. I type strangely and my E finger hits before my H finger so I tend to type the word “the” teh.

159. However, my spacebar figer hits before my E finger so I do things lik ethis.

160. I always type would like woudl and in my head I pronnouce it like Wu-del like rhyming with Hodel from Fiddler on the Roof.

161. I have to proofread everything.

162. When I was five I wanted to be a palentologist.

163. When I was seven I wanted to be a country western singer.

164. I love pistachios.

165. I have driven a combine.

166. I legally changed my last name when I was eighteen.

167. People tend to either really like me or hate me.

168. I tend to have only one or two pairs of shoes and wear them til death do us part.

169. I prefer clogs over all other shoes.

170. I really hate wearing sneakers.

171. I don’t like didactic country music. Give me the old cheatin’ songs anyday.

172. The clicky noise that some turn signals make drives me crazy. Our car does this and I have informed Chris that I don’t care what our next car is, as long as it doesn’t make that clicking noise.

173. I like camping, but I haven’t gone camping since my honeymoon.

174. I use hot rollers in my hair when I fix it.

175. I often fantasize about having my own commune where everyone I like can come and live so I can see all of my loved ones whenever I want.

176. I met my husband walking down the street at campus.

177. His family had us married before we had even started dating.

178. I like to shower and get myself fully dressed and ready for the day before doing anything else in the morning.

179. I don’t like wearing shirts that are baggy. A regular t-shirt ( the non fitted variety) drives me crazy. I feel like a slob.

180. I hate rejection. I submitted some stuff to Creating Keepsakes recently and the calls went out, and no call. Rejection sucks.

181. I would love to be on another scrapbooking design team.

182. I like Very Baby All In One Cloth Diapers the best..

183. I like geraniums because they are very hard to kill and bloom a lot.

184. My favorite Bath and Body Works scent is Cherry Blossom.

185. I am a perfectionist. If I can’t do something perfectly, I usually won’t even try.

186. Upon becoming a mother, my attention span and memory were reduced to the size of fleas.

187. I am extra senstive to noise. My level of stress will rise with the volume. Some days it is too much to have the tv and the dishwasher on at the same time.

188. I smake the best gingersnaps ever. Once you have my gingersnaps, no other gingersnap will do. I’m not kidding- you’ll never be satisfied again.

189. I have a Berta Hummel figurine that looks just like Jonas did when he was one. We are going to get one for Maggie when she is one, as well.

190. I love food with lots of flavor.

191. I think that The Emperor’s New Groove is the funniest Disney movie ever and it is a total shame that it bombed at the theaters.

192. I craved powdered laundry detergent when I was pregnant with both kids.

193. I discovered that eating a spoonful or two of baking soda quelled the craving.

194. I tried the detergent to see if I could just gross myself out so I would stop craving it, but it didn’t work. I liked it.

195. I love the words idiosyncratic and multiplicative. I don’t get to use them very often, but I love how they roll off of the tongue.

196. The first book I ever cried at was Where the Red Fern Grows. I cried for three chapters straight.

197. I feel my best when I have had 9 hours of sleep.

198. Almost any time I go anywhere I have a layover in the Denver airport.

199. I have only one niece. I was a mother before I was an aunt.

100. I don’t enjoy window shopping. If I’m shopping, I want to get something. I do my window shopping online.
