Swiped from Willowluna ...

1. I've come to realize that my hair... is really soft when I use pantene conditioner.

2. I've come to realize that my legs.... don't always work as well as some people with more coordination.

3. I've come to realize that my job is....ok.  I don't mind going.  Some days I laugh a lot there!

4. I've come to realize that when I'm driving....my husband nuts ... it's a short trip!

5. I've come to realize that I need...to go to London.  Yeah, I don't know what I'm talking about either but there it is!

6. I've come to realize that I have lost....the ability to slap on a phony persona and be pleasant to people that I don't want to be pleasant to.  I'm embracing my inner bluntness.

7. I've come to realize that I hate it when....I get up and pour a bowl of ceral and realize I don't have any of my milk in the house.  Then what do I do, eat it dry, eat it with J's milk on it, pour it back in the box, saran wrap it ...

8. I've come to realize that if I'm drunk....I better slow the party train down a bit and wait for everyone else because they're just getting started and I'm about done.

9. I've come to realize that money....is like trying to catch wind in a jar.  It's best to not stress about it and let it just float away.

10. I've come to realize that people....are strange when youre a stranger
Faces look ugly when youre alone
Women seem wicked when youre unwanted
Streets are uneven when youre down
When youre strange
Faces come out of the rain
When youre strange
No one remembers your name
When youre strange x3
People are strange when youre a stranger
Faces look ugly when youre alone
Women seem wicked when youre unwanted
Streets are uneven when youre down
When youre strange
Faces come out of the rain
{Come on, sing it with me. I know you want to! And don't sing "x3" sing the line three times!}
When youre strange
No one remembers your name
When youre strange x3
When youre strange
Faces come out of the rain
When youre strange
No one remembers your name
When youre strange x3

11. I've come to realize that I'll always be...a sarcastic smart ass.  Yay me!

12. I've come to realize that my significant other....(I've always thought that was a stupid saying 'significant other.'  What the hell does that really mean? Anyway ...) can't watch a football game without screaming profanities at the television.  It only bugs me because he drowns out MY screaming profanities.

13. I've come to realize that my mom....gets so pouty when I refuse to let her guilt trip me!

14. I've come to realize that my cell phone....is as cool as I am.  Yep, it's that un-hip! I'm surprised it doesn't have a rotary dial.  For anyone that doesn't get that ... go ask you mom about it ... maybe even your grandma.

15. I've come to realize that when I woke up this morning....I didn't dream about a big gorilla made out of mud trying to push my car over a steep cliff.  Phwew!

16. I've come to realize that last night before I went to sleep....I was wondering how to defeat a giant gorilla made out of mud.  I decided probably a really strong hose.  Welcome to my world!

17. I've come to realize that right now I am thinking about....that damn gorilla.  Change the topic already!

18. No question 18! ... I'll learn to adjust when the shock of it passes.

19. I've come to realize that when I get on MySpace....I'm about as cool as my cell phone.  Rotary dial ... google it.

20. I've come to realize that today....flew the frig by!

21. I've come to realize that tonight....I wish I had some alcohol and a bunch of friends over.

22. I've come to realize that tomorrow I will....not be hung over as I don't have any alcohol or friends over.

23. I've come to realize that I really want to....drink with my friends ... didn't we cover this already?

24. I've come to realize that the person who is most likely to repost...is elusive to me right now. I'll check the crystal ball and get back to you.

25. I've come to realize that life....really is like a box of chocolate.  It's a shame though that in life you can't crack people open to see if the gooey stuff at the center is something that you like or something that you want to squish back together and stick back in the box for some other sucker to find.

26. I've come to realize that my friends....are whacked!  Thank the gods!!!  I'd hate to be alone on that one!

27. I've come to realize that this year....is MY year.  Starting New Year (Samhain) it's a new beginning and I'm going to seize it and squeeze every bit of fun and love and life and joy and creativity and success out of it that is super-humanly possible!

This is remarkably accurate for me.  Makes me sound pushy and obnoxious doesn't it? :D

Your Birthdate: February 10

Independent and dominant, you tend to be the alpha dog in most situations. You're very confident, and hardly anything ever shakes you. Mundane tasks [I'd say more like busy work instead of mundane though] tend to drain you - you prefer to be making great plans. You are quite original. When people don't "get" you, it bothers you a lot. Your strength: Your ability to gain respect Your weakness: Caring too much what others think Your power color: Orange-red [Yep, that's true too] Your power symbol: Letter X [Hmmm, seems pretty boring!] Your power month: October [this part is really true!]
