5 More Things About Me...

I've been tagged again by this sweet gal to do another list of random facts about myself. So here you go, kiddos....

1. I don't like cake or cupcakes but I love blogs about them, food TV shows about them, books about them and anything else about them. I just won't eat them. When I get married I do not want a wedding cake because I figure that is my one and only day to have it all just the way I want it.

2. I do however have a HUGE sweet tooth. I love all the sticky, gooey, dentist-un-friendly crap like jelly beans, Swedish Fish, Hot Tamales and sour gummies.

3. The first thing I do in the morning is make my bed. And if I don't do it right away, I do it the minute I hop out of the shower. An unmade bed drives me batty.

4. I wear glasses. Always. I have never even attempted to use contact lenses. Because the very idea of touching my eyeball makes me queasy. Ew. I can't even watch you put your contacts in. I am such a baby sometimes.

5. I love to shop but I hate trying on clothes. If I don't bring it in the dressing room the first time, it's not getting tried on. And my try-clothes-on limit is very low. So I often just buy the clothes and bring them home to try on leisurely. Therefore I am a HUGE returner. I return maybe 80% of the clothes I purchase only because I don't like trying them on in store dressing rooms. Stores probably cringe when they see me walk in because they know I will be back to return much of what I buy.

I tried contacts in junior high. For the first month or two, it would take me forever to get the darn things in my eyes ... that's how scared I was to touch my eye.

I wore them through college and then finally just decided I'd had it. These days I wear glasses and I can't imagine every going back to contacts.

P.S. Glad to know I'm not the only one returning 3/4 of the clothes I buy :)

4- I just got contacts last summer and it took me forever to get them in. I still have days where I can't get them in for like 10 minutes!

5- me too!

I hate trying on clothes too. I have clothes here waiting to be returned when I get around to it.

I am a big returner too. If I get something home and I can't find anything to wear with it, or it just sits in my closet, I take it back. If a store doesn't have a good return policy I normally don't shop there.

Glad to know I am in good company!

Why don't you eat cupcakes or cake? Is it the icing or the cake or both? That's funny. I'm a big bed maker, too. Contacts are a pain, but I have a bad track record with sunglasses. If I wore my glasses all of the time, I'd probably go through several pairs a year!

I don't like both the sweet taste and the texture of cake. Not a big muffin fan either - though I am more flex with them vs cake. And that icky icing- just not my thing. And yes- this totally makes zero sense considering I love sugary candy and love cookies and ice cream.
