25 things about miss liz...

1.) I'm really bad at paying things/returning things on time... this is a huge problem in my life right now!

2.) When I come home from nannying, I eat dinner while watching Nanny 911 and take mental notes.

3.) If I could eat anything for the rest of my life it would be dill pickles (baby)

4.) I started eating barbecue sauce on my pasta when I was in high school and my obsession has escalated to me putting it on just about everything... it's a problem.

5.) I love the smell of books. If handed a book I automatically crack it open and give it a big sniff. I do this without thinking about it and immediately receive strange looks.

6.) I LOVE Christmas because I love Jesus. :D and everything else that comes with the Christmas season... love, peace, giving, hope, spending time with friends and loved ones. Christmas is the best!

7.) When my mom was pregnant with my younger brother, she took me to see Batman as a mom and me day before I became a big sister. I loved Batman so much, my mom bought me a pair of converse high tops with joker faces on them. I wish I had kept them so I could give them to my son/daughter one day.

8.) I rarely use curse words. They have never been a natural part of my lexis. If I do curse while not drunk I feel really bad.

9.) If I'm reading a book that I'm really into I get kind of sad toward the end because I've had such a good time getting to know the characters that I don't want it to end! I've been reading the same book for months now because I have been prolonging the conclusion.

10.) I own 5 Webkinz along with an online account. yea...

11.) Everyone always talks bad about Ohio, but some of my fondest memories were spent in that lovely flat state. My grandpa taught me how to drive a boat on Lake Eerie and ever since those days I've been obsessed with boats and the water and owning a boat in my lifetime is a necessity! Besides Christmas, boating is probably the second most thing in the world that makes me happy.

12.) I consider my dad the real life George Bailey (the main character from It's a Wonderful Life) I try to be more like him, he's amazing.

13.) I used to want to marry my cousin Stephen when I was 4... I didn't know!

14.) In 5th grade I was in a fashion show to benefit the Arthritis Foundation and I was PISSED because I was the oldest one so NOT cute like all the little girls AND all of the clothing was from STEIN MART - and they were too small for me because I was a bean pole

15.) In 6th grade I liked a boy solely for the fact that he looked like "Shades" from That Thing You Do. He rode the same bus as me so my best friend asked him to be my boyfriend. We dated for a couple days and after Thanksgiving my best friend also broke up with him for me.

16.) I met Katie Holmes (during the days of Dawson's Creek) at a mall in Toledo Ohio, we told her there was no toilet paper in the girls bathroom and she was very smug.

17.) I was obsessed with skater boys in middle school. I would get CCS (skating magazine) and cut out the little pictures of skate board decks and turn them into finger boards and bring them to class to impress the guys sitting around me. It never worked.

18.) I love learning about WWII

19.) I wish I could have a time machine... I would spend the 60s in London and the 70s in NYC and somehow hang out with Andy Warhol and George Harrison

20.) When I was 4 and asked what I wanted to do when I grew up, my response was "Cross the monkey bars"

21.) I was the Astronomy Club homecoming Princess in high school

22.) My friends and I had a moss club in elementary school

23.) ... I think the album 23 by Blonde Redhead is really sexual

24.) I always wish I could see what Richmond-broad street was like back in the 40s 50s and 60s... every time I pass the old store fronts that are closed down I want to break in some how and explore and try to find old trinkets or notes

25.) I let a boy I liked in 5th grade borrow my Third Eye Blind cd and I never got it back. I let a boy I liked borrow my Norma Jean t shirt when I was 17 and I never got it back. I let someone I loved at one time protect my guitar for me and I never got it back. STUPID BOYZ
