Things you should know about me ...

• 9 times out of 10, my socks don't match. Yes, this is another trend I started. Ask my friend Moyra, who has known me for almost eight years. She has hated my mismatched feet since 2005!
• Now that you know that, you have to know that there is an exception. If I am wearing pajamas or sweat pants I am always wearing pristine, matching white socks. It is a strict rule of mine that you can never, ever, wear anything buy white socks with loungewear.
• People who are not in a hurry confound me. My daughter Kristyn saunters everywhere she goes like she doesn't have a care in the world or a specific time to be anywhere. I need to know that I am making progress toward where I am going and if I am moving anything but at breackneck speed, I am wasting time.
• Besides Friends, I don't think I've ever watched a TV show all the way through. I just don't have eight years to find out how someone finally found a wife or whether or not some crazy med student marries the doctor who is supposed to be mentoring her on her first day.
• I would rather fill a sink with hot, soapy water and have the satisfaction of washing and drying dishes immediately than load the dishwasher, turn it on and wait hours only to unload the freaking thing again.
• I don't like Michael Douglas as a person, but love his movies. Same as Tom Cruise. I don't know what that says about me, but thought you should know.
• I hate feet. Feet are gross. Trust me, mine are really gross.
• I cry when I'm angry, but rarely when I'm sad. If happen to be fighting and I cry, run. Especially if I am holding an object that I can throw.
• I can't stand the band Rush.  You know how some people fall asleep counting sheep? Put Rush on for me and I'm out like a light.
• I have a soft spot for Britney Spears. I don't know why I am rooting for her like I am. I gave up on Lindsay Lohan though - but The Parent Trap will always be one of my favourite movies. That could simply be because of Dennis Quaid though.
• Lists. I love lists.
