However, my friend Ashley, who I've known literally since I was in third grade challenged me on her blog. Now, the more difficulty about this "personal stand against forwards" is my stubbornness. My stubbornness will always override my logic. Luckily, Ashley's challenge was not so forward-y and more just like a fun activity for when I got up WAAAAYYY too early on a Saturday. Here are the rules: I will write six facts about me. And then I will tag them in my blog. I would love to learn six random facts about you. However, I will not be angry if you don't do it (since most of my friends don't have blogs). So, here we are:
1. I talk to my dog, Milo, mainly when I'm home alone. He usually talks about how much he wishes he could run or that I could take him out to poo. But, David and I like to pretend he has a cursing problem. So, whenever he speaks to us, he says bad words and we scold him for using dirty language. So, maybe we also send him to his room in "punishment" for Milo "cussing." He's such an obedient dog, he goes without a question.
2. I'm addicted to the Bravo network. I'm really upset because Project runway is moving to freakin' Lifetime network after this Season 5 of P.R. I want to protest by not watching, but I love the show so much, I can't get away. I just love when Heidi speaks and I love even more when I learn wonderful vocab words from Tim Gunn. I mean, making dresses out of flowers, recyclable materials, food, etc is just too interesting.
3. I sing really loudly in my car. I used to sing all the time (like choir and a jazz group and was in theatre) so, I really miss that. Unfortunately, my career doesn't really permit extra time to do things like that. So, sometimes I download a new musical on Broadway and listen to it for three days straight in my car until I know all the words and tunes. Then, I start singing it until I get sick of the musical. Musicals that are exempt from me "getting sick of them" are *Wicked, *The Last Five Years, and *Avenue Q.
4. I could live off of Pillsbury Cinnamon rolls. I love them so much. They're actually pretty cheap for how much food you get. I could, hands down, eat all eight in the package in one sitting. If someone really wants to cheer me up or make me happier in general, they can just whip up a batch. I have some in my fridge right now which I was saving for a great occasion, but that great occasion might be this morning. That's right, just talking about it makes me want them. They're my crack.
5. My favorite song is ironically not by my favorite artist. In fact, I don't even like the artist particularly. But, it's a song that makes me rock out (especially in my car, as previously mentioned). I think the message in the song is also incredibly. And, yes, it's from a modern Disney film. It's "Reflection." But the version by Christina Aguilera. If you have a problem with it, see me after class. Because I LOOOOOVVVE it. I mean, what better message to little girls can you send than "I will show the world what’s inside my heart and be loved for who I am."
6. I'm sitting here trying to think of a final random fact. And, I realize suddenly that a random fact, but people might already know, is that I'm great at thinking on my feet. I think it might be the theatrical influence, but when it comes to interviews, speaking in public, etc. I'm really comfortable. I think due to that gift, I really need to get back into broadcast.
Alright, these 4 people will be tagged and need to give me 6 random facts about themselves:
1. Bill - You have a blog and I just met you, like a month and a half ago, so you should give me six random facts about you.
2. Danny - You have a blog also, so this helps. I never get to see you at work, since you never come in. Tell me about yourself.
3. David - yeah, I've dated you for (let's see if I can get this right...) 1 year, 9 months TODAY! That doesn't mean I shouldn't find out 6 random facts about you. And, let's be honest, you need to revamp and start up your blog again.
4. Christine - I heart you. And you post on my blog all the time (which means a lot). I mean, we lived together. I already know you can fall asleep in any position anywhere, so give me six other things.
Here are the rules:
1. Link to the person who tagged you
2. Post the rules on the blog
3. Write six random things about yourself
4. Tag six (or as many people you know that have blogs!) people at the end of your post
5. Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog
6. Let the tagger know when your entry is up

i will just leave my six random facts on here because i can't be wasting precious blog space on forwarded messages, then there would be far less room for random rants about Denzel.
1. i am adopted.
2. i am absolutely petrified of Guy Smiley from Sesame Street. i don't know what happened to me as a kid but i hate the guy and he will forever be my nemesis.
3. the first concert that i ever bought a ticket to was in 2000 or 2001 and it was for Christina Aguilera.
4. i played the flute for seven years. i even took lessons and received two letters in high school.
5. i absolutely love broccoli.
6. i have three siblings and i am the only one in my family to be fully named after relatives. my first name is the same as my mother's uncle and my middle name is my grandfather's. the other siblings only have their middle names named after family members. coincidentally, they all have more exciting names than i do.
Wonderful! I love it. Thank you, Danny, for participating.
Fine,
1. I hate it when people change the pronunciations of their names after they get famous. See Theisman, Joe and Beltran, Carlos
2. I am more left-wing than anyone you know.
3. O'Henry bars are one of my favorite candy bars, even though I've never had one, because of Henry Rodriguez.
4. I prefer Lowes to Home Depot because Home Depot sucks a lot. Anyone who says otherwise is kidding themselves.
5. I put no value in organized education.
6. This is the first one of these chain things I've responded to, and will be my last. Only out of love.
Haha, nice to know you love me that much, David. Thanks! Though I stand by you should start your blog up again.
Okay, I have no idea what I'm going to put because you already know me so well, but I'll try. I apologize if you know any of these already. If you do, just tell me and I'll think of something else.
1. I read the Babysitters' Club obsessively until I was like 13.
2. Over-ripe bananas make me gag. (I'm including this because I'm eating a perfectly ripe banana but I have one from a few days ago sitting on my desk and I almost reached for it first.)
3. As of my last haircut, my hair color is 100% natural for the first time since high school.
4. I think absurdism is one of the best things to come out of the Internet.
5. I wrote like 3 chapters of a Harry Potter fan fic a few years ago.
6. I never paint my nails or toenails red because my skin on my fingers and toes is already so red that if I do, my phalanges look like blood sausages.
Agreed about "Reflection" -- beautiful song! Although I love Christina Aguilera.
I ate Pillsbury cinnamon rolls this weekend. I actually still have some leftovers in my fridge.
I didn't know you never paint your toes. For some reason I thought you had and then I remembered it was silver, which wouldn't make your fingers look bloody at all.
hah, yeah. i'll paint them, but never any shade of red or pink or anything. silver, blue, black, green, etc. look fine.
