More About Me

10 strange things about Me:

1) I started crying when I first heard the Linkin Park and Jay-Z single. I'm emotional.

2) I wear my pj's all day if I can.

3) I can't stand if I don't have polish on my toenails. It can be chipping and all ugly, but I think my feel look weird with no polish.

4) I almost soak my sliced meat sandwiches w/ vinegar, either red wine or malt if it has bacon.

5) My sister Morgan (http://www.myspace.com/mcharboneau), husband Preston (http://www.myspace.com/pdog69), dad Matt (http://www.myspace.com/mattcharboneaujr), step-mom Holly (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=32332202), and B (Brandon)(http://www.myspace.com/brandonbaker13) are my top 5 favorite people, but I can't put them in any kind of order, they're just grouped!

6) I always have to make sure people know I'm not a typical bitchy, stupid, can't-do-anything-for-herself, naggy, immature girl. I know how to change my oil, and I do. I know how to drive a stick, cook dinner, take responsibility for my actions, work hard, and speak the English language the way it's taught, and not the way it's "spoken" in the southern states.

7) I don't shave very often.

8) I think I only read at an 8th grade level, because I NEVER read anything in my reading/english classes in school. I read very slowly, and if I don't read every word (Preston doesn't read the little "filler" words like "and, but, the, etc"), I will not understand nor pay attention to what I've just "read."

9) I am extremely interested in science. I love the Discovery Science channel!

10) Next time I visit my dad and my sister in Colorado, we're all going to get a tattoo on the pad of our thumb of a "buddy." When we were little, our dad would always draw "buddies" (smiley faces, but w/ character - kind of like Guy Smiley from Sesame Street) on our thumbs. It was my dad's idea, but we didn't have the money at the time, AND I didn't know if I REALLY wanted a buddy on my thumb forever - but now I regret that we didn't do it!

5. Honestly, if someone were to tell you how they felt, would you listen?
Yes. I always listen. I love hosent conversations, as long as the other person is open to hear my opinion and advice, although I'm not the kind to get all butt-hurt if you don't follow my advice!

9. Are you musically inclined?
I know when people mess up, but I can't do it better, so sometimes I get criticized just because I'm not tone-def. I played the trumpet for 8 years so I know how to read music and play in tune - honestly, that would be my dream job: playing trumpet in a full orchastra performing scores for movies - like Gladiator, Pearl Harbor, Lord of the Rings, etc.

10. If you could go back in time, and change something, what would it be?

Body size, I like big guys, big boned or just big bodied, I don't like 'em too fat, but I hate skinny guys.
