Here’s 7 facts about me:
My cute pal Jen Sizemore http://jennifersizemore.blogspot.com/ tagged me today (and also reminded me that it’s time to update the ol’ blog)….
So here we go.
Share 7 facts about yourself: some random, some weird.
Here’s 7 facts about me:
1. I have an insane sweet tooth. This does not help in the weight department. Sigh. I rejoice that it’s “candy season” (Halloween) and that I have a legit excuse to buy tons.
2. I have been a life long nail-biter. Ever since I got fake nails for my precious son Matt’s wedding in May (those nails irritated me to no end), I have bitten them lower than they have ever been. It’s record breaking actually. Yikes. I seriously need to wear gloves when watching TV or movies. I draw blood. It’s bad.
3. In high school, I was the top student in my public speaking class. I enjoyed it so much and got so much encouragement, that I considered a future career as a DJ.
4. I want a Nissan Murano or a VW Toureg.
5. I consider going upstairs exercise. And I hate exercise. Thus, I hate going upstairs. Sadly, my room/bed is upstairs. (note to self, try not to have your bedroom be upstairs in your next home).
6. All my babies have come early. Matt was a week early, Jeffrey 2 weeks early, and Annie was almost a month early. The early thing worked nicely for me. 
(otherwise I would’ve given birth to mooses.)
7. I am the shortest of 5 children.

NOW LET’S UPDATE SOME TV STUFF, OK?
Shows I’ve given up (either didn’t enjoy, or time restraints, etc…) – - JOURNEYMAN (just didn’t get into it), REAPER (it was just OK), PUSHING DAISIES (I was so hyped for this one, and I can’t remember hating a show more – ick poo!!!!), MOONLIGHT (mostly because it’s on Fridays and I always forget to set my DVR, and I figure I can catch it on DVD at some point), and BIONIC WOMAN (because the villain was more exciting than the Bionic Woman, and that’s just wrong).
Shows I can’t get enough of:
CHUCK – Hysterical, delightful, trendy, and I love Chuck.
BIG BANG THEORY – This is my LAUGH OUT LOUD tv show every week. It’s not getting the best reviews everywhere, but dangit, it is FUNNY!
HEROES – sure it’s starting off a little slow this year, but C’MON people, this is still GOOD TV! Everyone’s harping on how dumb Claire’s boyfriend is, well, I disagree, I think he’s lovely, and I’m voting for him to get the lead in the upcoming TWILIGHT vampire movie from the Stephanie Meyer novel. All in favor, raise your hands. We need more Kenzei story by the way.
30 ROCK – someone PLEASE hand Alec Baldwin an EMMY. Love this show!
HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER – season started off slow for me. But this week’s episode was back in PERFECT form. SOOOOOOOOO FUNNY! I love Ted.
TORCHWOOD – it’s a weird show, not even well acted sometimes, but I’m officially sucked in.
THE OFFICE – I am so in love with this show, it’s bordering on insanity! I love how Jim and Pam’s romance isn’t the “theme” for the show, just something they touch on here and there. That rocks. (altho they can add more if they “need” to. Hee). The whole Dwight depression over his breakup with Angela is brilliant. His “whale crying” in the stairwell – - well, this guy needs an EMMY too. I’d like to have a group hug with the writers.
Did ya see the preview for the upcoming 24? Yowza! Count me in!
And only 4′ish months til LOST comes back. Good heavens. This it torture.
