the rest of 100 things about me

Awhile back, I posted 50% of the 100 things about me meme.  Here are the rest.

54. I am right handed (mom was a southpaw).
55. Aside from Cuba, I’ve been (outside the U.S. and Canada) to Mexico (border towns, Cancun, Cozumel) Panama, and Germany.
56. I have never dunked my french fries in any dairy product.  And even though I like ketchup, I never put it on fries.  I like’em naked.
57. Scarlet Tanager was my “spark” bird as a kid, the one that really got be hooked on birds.  I couldn’t imagine something that looked like that could be found in Michigan.
58. Naps are vital to my well-being.
59. The bed: flannel sheets, many blankets, soft comforters, bury me!
60. I’m am too uncompetitive for my own career health.
61. I quit Brownies.  I thought it was cheesy and girlie.
62. Twenty (or more) years ago, I was told I looked like actress Kristy McNichol.
63. My childhood nickname was “Woojums,” or just “Wooj.”  No meaning, nonsense word.
64. Despite being descended from the original French settlers of Canada, I speak only a few words of French, although it was apparently spoken in my grandmother’s Canadian home.
65. I prefer to be barefoot.
66. I’m the youngest of four children, born 14 years after my late brother.
67. I wear contact lenses.
68. I can pick things up with my toes.
69. I have impure thoughts when I see this number.
70. I don’t like to shop, and do most of it online.  My lack of enthusiasm for grocery shopping in particular means I eat out a lot.
71. Even though I like to cook.
72. I can’t stick to a diet.  And I should!
73. I didn’t eat pizza until I was in my 20s.
74. I don’t give people the benefit of the doubt often enough.
75. I hate making phone calls.
76. I believe respect is earned.
77. I used to tear up when I heard the National Anthem.  I still do sometimes, for different reasons.
78. I always read in the bathroom.
79. I dream in color, usually remember my dreams, and have lucid dreams fairly often.
80. I’ve never liked comic strips.
81. I don’t drink enough water.
82. I will sometimes write something on my to-do list that was originally not included and cross it off, just to feel like I accomplished more.  On a bad day, it will be something essential and mundane like “Go to the bathroom.”
83. I believe it is a person’s right to die with dignity and without pain, at a time of their own choosing.
84. Kelly Tripucka asked me out on a date.  I said no.

87. I don’t really like playing card or board games.
88. My earliest celebrity crushes were Leif Garrett and Mark Fidrych.  But I’ve never considered unkept blondes “my type.”
89. My current celebrity crushes (lacking all the obsessive intensity of a teenage girl, which I suppose makes this just a list of men I think are hot) are Hugh Laurie, James Denton, George Eads, Nick Lachey, and Jeff Probst.
90. I think my husband is the hottest of all. Not sure how I got so lucky in that department.
91. I’m not really comfortable at parties and other social situations, as I like to relate to people one-on-one.
92. I never went away to camp when I was a kid.
93. I can be so preoccupied that I am rude.  Other times, I just am rude.  I want to change that.
94. I don’t like reading books or seeing movies more than once.
95. I hate not knowing what time it is.
96. Details are important.
97. I have a poor sense of direction, aside from up and down.
98. I like most vegetables, and dislike most fruit.
99. I have no artistic or musical ability.
100. I’ve never changed a diaper.  And doubt I ever will.

That was a bit more tedious than I expected, but I felt obliged to finish what I started.
