The Facts of Me

So look at me! Three posts. Two days. Miracle? I think so.
I'm linking up today with the wonderful Whitney @ I Wore Yoga Pants to Work.
Something about my life being a theme park and fascinating facts about me.
Not so sure about the fascinating BUT there will be facts!!

When I get restless, I stand with my ankles turned in. I'm surprised that I haven't seriously hurt myself. I did this a lot when I was younger but I still catch myself every now and then.

I don't like ice in my drinks. I don't like how cold it is. I don't like the crunchy mess. I don't like how it hits me in the face when I try to take a drink.

Which is why I use straws in almost everything I drink. Preferably colorful and of the bendy persuasion.

My maiden name was Skipper. Which means I basically NEVER went by my first name. Skipper. Skippy. Skip. I've heard all the nicknames. All the jokes. I've had friends that didn't know my name was Lauren for months.

I hate bagpipes. Except when they play Amazing Grace.

I got really really dehydrated in high school to the point where my poor kidneys were screaming for help. I was forced to drink tons and tons of H2O and lay off the caffeine. To this day, I don't drink much besides water or the occasional cup of coffee.

I'm obsessed with my dogs. They are mine and the boy's first children. They keep me company during football/softball season when the boy is gone for long periods of time. Plus, they are just stinkin' cute.

I really do all I can to avoid talking on the phone. 

I don't have much (if any) cartilage in my nose. It can almost squish flat. Not sure why or how but I was born this way. I've been a visual aide to the boy's anatomy class. It was a blasty-blast.

I can sleep in almost any position. Under any circumstance. In any light. With plenty of noise. I'm the girl who can take a five hour nap, eat dinner and then go to bed for eight more hours. Sleep is basically a talent of mine.

Oh and I sing. I've sang in a couple of weddings. Helped out at funerals. Done oodles of school whatnot. My nana taught me everything I know. I don't advertise it much though. It's mostly a church thing. And a car thing. And a shower thing.

I'm allergic to chocolate. Gives me killer migraines. You learn to deal...

I love spontaneity. Like the let's-go-jump-in-the-lake-with-all-our-clothes-on kind of spontaneous. Sometimes you just need to let go.

There are some words that I just don't like: wad, nipple, moist. Ha! Those are completely meant to be unrelated but yeah...I can't handle the sound of the others.

I'm not a great driver but I've never had a ticket either. Oh but I've been pulled over...a lot. I have a feeling my time will come but I'm holding onto all the luck that I can.

My favorite animal is probably going to have to be a turtle. Probably why it is the only picture from my zoo trip. I wanted to ride that bad boy.

Being married to a football coach means there is a pretty good chance that you will be tackled at least once a week. The correct way. No mercy. 

I have a thing about dinosaurs. Specifically the Tyrannosaurus Rex. I'm in serious like with them. Why? I have no idea.

I'm a dork. I married a dork. We will most likely have dork children.

It feels like it has taken 98347023 years to finish school. Five schools and three majors later, I will graduate in 109 days. Who is excited? This girl!

My socks never match. Or white. Right now they are both striped. One is blue and pink. The other is orange and green. 

 This is my newest addiction thanks to my sweet sister-in-law. I'm actually pretty good at it though and only lost one game...so far. You should play me. My name is llabeth

I organize. A lot. I can't handle a whole lot of clutter. I'm pretty sure I clean off the kitchen island at my in-laws every time I go over there. They probably hate that.

I hate when people use abbreviations and numbers for words in text messages like ur, 4ever, 2nite and other junk like that. Is it that hard to put the whole word?

This is the love of my life. My best friend. The boy obsessed with Star Wars, sports and science. He is absolutely fantastic.

Go link up with Whitney to share you facts!

Have a beautiful day :)
