Seven Random Things You Didn’t Know About Sarah

I’ve been tagged yet again. (Thanks, Sarah!) This time I’m supposed to share seven random things about myself.

  1. I hate monkeys, especially chimps and gorillas. It’s not that they scare me, so much, but I just hate them. It’s completely irrational.
  2. I have had horrific acne since I was a teenager, and I have a zit-popping point system. I understand that I am disgusting, but when you spend so much time in front of the mirror, you have to figure out some way to pass the time. Thankfully, the acne is sort of phasing itself out, but I have a feeling that I’ll deal with it my entire life.
  3. I talk for my cats. That’s right, for my cats, not to my cats. When they “speak,” I use a specific voice (each cat has a different intonation). I have always done this with my pets, and I didn’t know it was weird until Chris and I got Ravi. My best friend Jenny had to explain to him that it was totally normal, and now Chris talks for the cats, too. It’s pretty funny.
  4. I don’t let Chris fold clean towels because I have a very specific way I like the towels to be folded, and it’s much easier to fold the towels myself than it is to teach Chris every time we do laundry. My mother is to blame for this because she was adament about how all the towels in her house were folded; if I folded the towels incorrectly, she made me redo them!
  5. I also don’t let Chris load the dishwasher. And again, my mother is to blame for this. I must absolutely cram as many dishes as humanly possible into the dishwasher before I run it. I sort of turn loading the dishwasher into a weird game of Tetris to get it all to fit. And this week, I was talking to my brother on the phone, and he has the same weird obsession about the dishwasher!
  6. I can’t eat potluck. I think I’ve watched too many 20/20 specials about food poisoning from food that sits out, and I also don’t like eating food that doesn’t match. Seriously, who can eat lukewarm lasagna and fried chicken in the same sitting? It’s just gross.
  7. I love a good chick flick/Disney movie. I’m a sappy little girl, and I love watching movies like That Thing You Do, The Princess Diaries, The Cutting Edge, and The Holiday.

That’s the randomness about me. Any questions?

Fear of Monkeys Not So Funny Now

All right, for those of you who think my fear of primates is silly, I have been redeemed! Did you read that the Deputy Mayor of Delhi was attacked by monkeys and killed on Sunday? That’s right—attacked and killed!

I sure was glad that this article came to me. Now I know exactly what to do if I’m attacked by monkeys!Luckily, the population of wild apes in the Ozarks is pretty slim.
