12 Completely Random Facts/Opinions About Me

I got tagged and since I so easily succumb to peer pressure here are 12 wonderful, juicy qualities about myself.  I thought it would be easier to do this here than on FB where this entire thing would take up everybody's news feed.  You're welcome.

1) I have a fear of geese, swans, etc. because when I was four I was trying to feed a goose and another one came behind me and bit me in the butt.  I cried. Hysterically.  Ever since then, I really hate large birds.

2) My three favorite flavors of anything are pumpkin, banana, and peanut butter. Not necessarily together (although banana and peanut butter together is amazing).

3) I argue passionately against the fact that Disney sells a Chewbacca backpack when Chewbacca was never carried in the movies... think about it: Yoda was carried by Luke so a backpack representing that makes sense.  C3PO was carried (in pieces) by Chewbacca but that is not something made or manufactured by Disney.  This needs to change.

4) I have high hopes of making my dad an internet star.

5) I make other people dare me to do things so I have an excuse to do stupid things.  Not very sound reasoning but soundness isn't really a necessity for excuses of stupidity.

6) I broke my foot jump roping.

7) I cried at the end of Armageddon and my whole family laughed at me (don't even ask how that has emotionally scarred me...probably worth a therapy session or two).

8) I'm a rock and roll girl to the core but I am not afraid to bust out any showtune or Disney song at any moment (except at a rock show).

9) I have a horrendous nail-biting habit.

10) I am a self-diagnosed hypochondriac.

11) I'm really clumsy (although my nimbleness has somewhat improved through the sports I've participated in) and have had numerous head injuries.  You know those monkeys that jumped on the bed?  That, children, is a precautionary tale, not a nursery rhyme.  DO NOT JUMP ON THE BED.

12) In my family, I have been dubbed the "funny one" although my dad tries to overshadow me to no avail.
