things you may or may not know about me

*I love puzzles.

*I don't remember the last time I saw a movie in the theater, I actually don't like movies at all but I love TV (although I did rent The Waitress the other day and liked it).

*I am related to some semi-famous people. My uncle is Vai Sikahema, he played football for BYU, and went on the play pro football (he made me a cool 2nd Grader). I have a cousin who is the President of WeR Memory Keepers, a huge scrapbook company and he makes regular appearances on HSN. My other cousin is Jon Heder, or more commonly known as Napolean Dynamite. My sister Emme is a musician, she tours all around and has released 3 albums and is working on her 4th.

*I get migraines a lot. My doctor won't prescribe the migraine medicine because I have freakishly low blood pressure (another thing you didn't know about me.)

*I have never read Harry Potter, nor have I seen any of the movies.

*The only time I ever call my sister Rebecca, "Rebecca" is when I'm talking about her to people who don't know her. To me, she is Beega, and if I call her Rebecca, we both get weirded out.

*My dad, brother and brother in law are all Dentists. My husband and other brother both make teeth for a living.

*I have had a C-Section. Gracie was a footling breech. They tried to turn her in womb and that hurts worse than labor.

*I have to take a bath everynight or else I can't sleep. I have to raise my core body temperature back up to normal before bed. Which brings us to the next one:

*I'm always cold.

*I am a freak about clean sheets, I cannot sleep unless my sheets still smell of fabric softner.
(I think this stems from an Oprah show I once saw.)

*I have had braces 3 times. (The last time was just last year, and I got to wear those cool Invisalign ones).

*I'm shy until I get to know you.

*I read a lot. I will go through 10 books in a few weeks.

* I HATE styrofoam.

*My husband feels bad that I never mention him on my blog.

*I used to run 10 miles a day.

*I love to vacuum, it's instant gratification.

*I HATE the phone, seriously it's a phobia. (ok, everyone already knows that).

So, where do I begin in mentioning all the new things I just learned about you? You don't like movies, really?? I just thought back to all those nights of watching SKOW and DD (Some Kind of Wonderful and Dirty Dancing, of course). I'm surprised. Wow! How do you even stand being around Jon Heder at family reunions? I laugh so hard at some people doing imitations of Napolean...but to be around the real thing...I'd probably pee my pants from laughing so hard. I don't think I could let him be himself because Napolean is just too funny. I have the sheet issue as well. What's your favorite fabric softener? I'm a little (okay, a lot) obsessive about smells of things, and fabric softener happens to be a favorite. You're great Kate... it was fun to learn some new things about you!!

Love this list Kate. And I actually learned a few new things. Even though we've known each other our whole lives. Oh wait... make that 1 year. Feels like i've known you forever :)

Does it count if I watched Harry Potter in bed with you while you read? I saw you look up quite often.
