Stephanie Says.. Take a walk inside my head

There is a trend on Facebook to come up with twenty-five random comments about yourself, post them and then “tag” twenty-five other people to talk about themselves.  I can’t get the computer to let me tag people, so I’m posting mine here.

I may do thirty-four because that is how old I am.

 Stephanie’s twenty-five (or thirty-four):

1. I love the smells of lemon and cinnamon.  No, I’ve never combined them.

2. I don’t like when people end their sentences in “at”.  “Where is your house at?” crawls all over me.

3. Three great things about my job:

a) Meeting and getting to know all kinds of people, such as Jerry the Historical Society man (though he calls it the “Hysterical Society”) and The Birdsong Family who are also a singing group

b) Working with Kenny and seeing how good he is at what he does (I call Litho-Craft “The Shop That Saved My Marriage”)

c) Getting to feel a part of something…we work -with- each other more than -for- each other, if you know what I mean

4. Three not so great things about my job:

a) People die at inconvient times, so we never know what our nights will hold (In other words, sometimes we have to get home very late or make late night runs down to the shop)

b) I dislike it when customers drum their fingers on the counter while I am checking them out.  It makes me feel as if they are complaining about the service.

c) Sometimes we are more disorganized chaos than we are settled.

5.  I didn’t want to be Sarah in “Guys and Dolls” because I thought I was a great actress or anything.  I just wanted to sing “If I Were a Bell”.

6. 1992 was the best and the worst year of my life.

7. I love it when my boss makes me laugh.  The other day, I told him that I was having trouble doing two things at once and he said “Take your chewing gum out.”  Typical Mike, but I thought it was funny.

8. The highlights of my weeks are Mission Friends, People magazine day and the day I get to process checks.  The highlights of my months are Book Club and Statement Days.

9. I find it funny that I am in charge of processing checks at work considering that I can’t do math to save my life.

10.  I love -Little Women- and -Eight Cousins- but dislike -Little Men- and -Rose in Bloom-.

11. Daddy will always be my favorite singer, no matter what happens on -American Idol-.

12. I firmly believe that Kenny and Jennifer can read each other’s minds.  I also think that they could take over the world if they halfway tried.

13. I love quarters.  I don’t know why.

14. I cannot spell.  Cannot.  I once saw a card proclaiming “Bad Spellers of the World, Untie” and thought it was made for me.

15. I don’t like Derrick or Meredith.  I much prefer Izzy and Lexie.  And don’t hate me, but I’m probably the only person in the world who is glad that Denny is back.  Yes, I know *boo* *hiss*.

16. My favorite sacred book is -Redeeming Love-.  My favorite secular book is -P. S. I Love You-.  My favorite sacred series is -The Yada Yada Prayer Group-.  My favorite secular series is -The Inspector Lynley Mysteries-.

17.  I will always be mad that Shannon was killed on -Lost- but I’m not so emotional about Boone.

18. My hair will do pretty much whatever you want it to, but I wet it and run out the door.  Therefore, my hair is constantly a mess.

19.  Make up makes me break out.  Especially eye make up.

20. I love chocolate.  Love, love, love chocolate.

21. Kenny can do anything.  Really.  He can.

22. I watch way too much -Full House- for my own good.

23. In a Myers-Briggs test, I am halfway between Introvert and Extravert.  So I am sometimes a homebody and sometimes a social butterfly.  This confuses the heck out of my husband.

24. I still don’t know which of his ADAs Jack McCoy got involved with.

25. I miss Stephanie March.  When we watch -Law and Order:SVU- reruns, I cheer when she comes on screen.

26. My favorite hymn is “Day by Day” but I like “Be Still My Soul” pretty well too.

27. If you cannot see a book in my hand, I have one in my pocket, purse or car.

28. I believe in angels, though I have never seen one.

29. I can’t stand peanut butter sandwiches.  They have to be open faced.

30.  I don’t like grape jelly or purple grapes, but I will eat green ones.

31. I don’t watch You Tube at home very much.  I watch it all the time at work.

32. I had forgotten how much I like -Picket Fences- until Hulu started showing the first season.

33. Wayne calls me a geek because I am looking forward to -Star Trek-. 

34. I am a terrible, terrible disciplinarian.  I would be so bad in a classroom.

Bonus two:

35. Nicole Kidman is beautiful.  She’s my “who would play you in a movie” person.

36. Victor Garbor would play my Daddy.  Even if Daddy isn’t Canadian.

 

 

 

 

I have decided that there are two types of people in the world.

There are  -The Secret Garden- people and there are -A Little Princess- people.

No offense to Shirley Temple, but I am so a -Secret Garden- person.
