You are so funny!! I loved it. I don't remember you looking like Clay Aikin though??
I'll be watching your blog, as it does appear we may be traveling at the same time!
Congrats on one month down!
holy cow... and to think I thought I new you so well. I am afraid to say this, I dont think we can be friends anymore....
Hey weirdo...thanks for the laughs, maybe someday I will attempt my 100 list.
I dont' think I have 100 facts about me. That would take some serious thought.
However, my foot size did go up a size and 1/2 also after my 3 boys. I no longer like Tom Cruise, I drank that nasty oil to induce labor, it didn't work. I think Halloween is stupid, I like Pres. Bush, I go to bed early, love naps, need lots of sleep, have bid too much on ebay and won, love to dance, laugh and I think my kids are the cutest and my husband is the greatest.
Think we have alot in common.
I like #30. It fits me well also. I was a bit confusd on #77 and want to stay that way. LOL
Okay I just found your blog and read your list. I was seeing myself in over half of what you wrote! Pretty weird. I too must have my ears covered when I sleep. I hate rap music, My foot size jumped up one size when I had my Hannah. I hate halloween, love sleep, voted for Bush and think my kids are the coolest people on earth! (of course,which mother doesn't?) Looking forward to following your journey to your daughter.

Oh, I forgot to mention- fake toenails? Do they do that? I have got to get out more! I paint my toenails once every summer. When it wears off I just think,"Well it is almost Fall so why do it again!"
Someday you gotta show us your toenails! Ha ha!

You are great, I love that you can think of 100 facts about you, that within itself is a wonderful trait.
I would take that Clay Aikin thing as an insult though (or attribute it to elderly eyesight, whichever makes you feel better).
I too pee a little when I sneeze, my dh teases me about it frequently (since my aunt who also does it was recently diagnosed with having a "large bladder").
I like Pres. Bush (where are people like us during those polls?), love to sleep (although can't do much of that lately), and am absolutely sure that our daughter (once we receive that referral) is the cutest kid on this Earth.
Thanks for the laughs. Looking forward to continuing to follow your blog during our wait together.
Fellow firefly !
