Some random facts.

I slept under the covers until my mid-2os. Is that even normal? Probably not. I was terrified of the dark, ever since I was a child. To this day, I still cannot look at a mirror in the bathroom for fear of seeing something. What, I don't know, but I don't want to find out. I don't sleep under the covers anymore. Becoming a mom changed that and I just don't fear it anymore.

While I love odd amounts of things (like 5 of something placed on the wall, or 3 -- it is more aesthetically pleasing), I buy even amounts of things (4 bags of chocolate instead of 3 or 5). I have no idea why!

I catch myself clenching my jaw when I drive and there is no reason for it. I'm not tense or stressed or scared, but I think it's just a habit.

I wash my hands an insane amount of times per day. I must do it absent-mindedly. I noticed this the other day because the hubby had to fix a leak in the bathroom sink so we couldn't use it and I probably went to it 3 times within 10 minutes before remembering I couldn't use it (I did acutally turn it on once, causing a minor flood under the sink. Oops.

I am a great speller and have excellent grammar but sometimes when I am typing online and not thinking, I accidently type "ov" for "of". How stupid! At least I catch myself before I post it.

Facebook is kind-of like crack. I don't think I could go a day without logging in. I don't want to miss anyone's update. What if something really important is happening and I don't find out about it?! I love logging in and seeing little red boxes that means I have either a message or a comment or even a friend request. What the hell did we do before Facebook?! Maybe I'm just too reliant on being social.

I love the feeling of getting in a hot car when it's winter. Winter is damn cold here. There's nothing better than having the heater blast that heat right in your face, even if it makes your eyes and face feel super dry. When I was a kid, my sister and I used to get up early in the morning and sit on the registers in the house.

I am addicted to doing laundry. I cloth diaper, as you know, and I also enjoy doing the regular laundry. I think it's the organization of it all. I don't always enjoy folding it and sometimes it piles up a little in the hampers, waiting to be put away. I only get to it when I need a hamper. Haha.

That's about it for now.

Random stuff

-I ordered (or my husband ordered for me) a new Dell laptop. I want something that I can use to edit photos and this way I won't have to fight DH for his computer (which is actually mine that he stole after his broke, but I digress . . .).

-I got a new cell phone so this means, for the first time in 6 years, we have TWO cell phones -- one for each of us. We like Tracfone -- I couldn't pass up the deal Target had -- a slider phone with double minutes for life for $19.99 -- can't beat that! I then went online to purchase a 450 minute card (with 80 bonus minutes) so then I got 980 minutes to add to the 10 that came with it. SCORE!

-I am in a wedding on Saturday and I haven't been in a wedding since I was 5, since I was a flower girl in 2 family weddings. I am heading up to the Cities on Friday for the rehearsal/dinner and the wedding is on Saturday. We are getting our hair did. ;) Andrew will be with my mom from Friday night through Sunday morning because I cannot fathom watching a wild (almost) 3-year-old while I am IN a wedding -- this child runs and runs and never stops. Seriously, he is the kid that you see in group of kids that is the wildest. I am not exaggerating. Anyway, DH can handle the baby just fine and I need her there so she can feed on the tap (she doesn't take bottles) whenever necessary. It should be interesting with the dress, but we'll make it work. The dresses are a really pretty candy apple red with spaghetti straps. While I am welcoming a break from Andrew, I know Mommy Guilt is going to kick in and I hope that he has fun -- I'm sure he will. He loves Grandma, or "Grammon", as he calls her.

-Speaking of Andrew, he turns 3 on Wednesday. We're going to just do a small gathering with my mom and siblings at my mom's house on Thursday. It should be fun.

-Andrew has some "friends" and they are not people, nor are they animals. They are Clementine oranges from the other day. Tonight he set them on his stool in the bathroom before I set him on the toilet and he turned to his "friends" and said, "What think, oranges?" It was so funny!

-I got Elise 2 more diapers -- I had to try the BumGenius 4.0 snap diapers! Now I have 30 diapers total in my stash and I'm done buying.
