Aw, Crap!

I've been tagged again. I don't know why, but I have real issues with authority. I don't like people telling me what to do. :0) I don't have any problem doing this kind of thing when I want to do it, but when some one else tells me I don't want to. It's the same thing with the forwarding on of emails thing that I've mentioned before. Ryan hates it because I perceive anytime he's trying to give me advice as him telling me what to do. I do NOT like being told what to do. I always think that he's trying to teach me a lesson or something. It's childish and immature, but a problem I've had my whole life. Just ask my parents. So, I guess these traits can be added to the random facts list about me: I'm impatient, easily annoyed and mean. :0)

Name 3 joys, fears, current obsessions/collections, random surprising facts.
These are listed in no particular order.

Joys
1. My kids
2. The Gospel
3. My Ryan

Fears
1. My teeth rotting/crumbling and falling out of my head. I have nightmares about it all the time. I'll wake up and check/feel in my mouth to make sure that they're still there. I also have nightmares about gum. In them, it sticks to my teeth and I can't get it off or out of my mouth entirely.
2. Having my neck or calves touched. Disgusting. It makes me hyperventilate and have a panic attack. My brother, Joshua, used to grab them and then tickle to be mean. I still hate him for it. Ryan will say to me when we are in bed at night, "Don't these blankets feel like they're really high up. Kind of like they're sitting across your neck. They feel really tight. I can't really breathe that well. What about you?" I freak out and kick and scream until I have them kicked off of me.
3. That Ryan will die in some sort of fiery automobile accident because he wasn't wearing his seat belt. I wonder if he's reading this. WEAR YOUR SEAT BELT YOU CREEP!

Current obsessions/collections
1. Scrap booking. I do it too much. I'm always ahead of schedule for my page exchanges. It's just a quiet activity and I'm all about quiet these days.
2. Honey, Honey, Honey
3. Kissing Peyton

Random/surprising facts
1. I like to spell out words in my head, but in kind of a weird way that's just too hard to explain. I do it with words I hear, read, think, etc. It can be very time consuming and I have to make a conscious effort to keep myself from doing it. It can cause me to lose track in a conversation because I will be spelling out a sentence that was said three sentences ago. I like the words to have an odd number of letters in them as well. Seven is the best and if I can't get just the letters to work out to an odd amount, I will throw in the punctuation as well. On occasion, I will do this just for comfort.
2. Everyone knows that I hate cats. When I see one, my first impulse is to grab it by the head and throw it. I know, not very nice and I would never actually do it, but I just want to get it as far away from me as possible.
3. People think that I'm very patient, but I'm really not. I just can't stand losing it in front of people. If I was hooked up to a heart monitor 24/7, you would see just how impatient I am because my blood pressure goes through the roof when I'm mad. I just don't always show it.

I can't think of a single person to tag. So, if there's anyone out there who has never done this before and doesn't mind having some one tell them what to do, consider yourself tagged by me.

Sounds like you and Ryan have the same discussions as Billy and I. I always think he is trying to "teach me", or "tell me" what to do. I hate it!! It's a control thing. I have to be in control. Anyway, you think you are not patient, but who else can handle all those primary children and not totally freak out on the spot. You are more patient than you realize. And if you still think you are, at least God gave you the gift of common sense, not to blow up in front of people!! My obsession would be kissing Peyton too, if I ever got to see him!!!

I think it is funny that you can't stand to have your neck or calves touched because when I get a massage that is my favorite two areas to have massaged. I tell them to focus on my neck because that is where I always get the most knots and my calves just because it feels really good. I like the cat thing also, especially since your brother seems to be such a cat lover.

Sorry I tagged you. I won't do it ever again.
