Thursday Thirteen: 13 sounds that irk me




1. The sound of something falling in the middle of the night. *cut to me racing down stairs with a baseball bat to find the white board had fallen off the fridge.*

2. When someone not only coughs but seems to gurgle their grossness in their throat

3. Creaking doors or floorboards

4. Scratching on a chalk board

5. Squeaking brakes when I'm in reverse backing out of the driveway

6. Dogs running up and down stairs in the neighbors house at 11 p.m.

7. The dryer hopping around because the back leg is broken.

8. A timer on the microwave that someone forgets to shut off.

9. My alarm in the morning.

10. My four-year-old, Braeden, calling from the bathroom to make sure I come in and watch him wipe his bottom. (We're working on this, he's always afraid he will miss some dirties).

11. When my computer tower at home seems to be lifting off a rocket launcher when I'm running too many programs.

12. The garbage truck at 6 a.m.

13. "Mommy, I have to go potty." After he's all buckled in his car seat and we're just about to head off to day care in the morning.

My First Thursday Thirteen

This is my first so bear (bare) with me.


Thirteen Things about Christy


1. I am a blogging fiend. So much so that I own and wear an "I'm Blogging This" t-shirt. And I probably say "I'm going to have to blog this" two dozen times a day.

2. I have an addiction. Um... I have a few addictions. The list is as follows (in no order): DVDs, World of Warcraft, stationery, stickers, greeting cards, wine, Emily Strange and fairies.

3. I sit like a frog. It's true. I can't sit normal. Right now I am in my office at my desk and my knees are pulled up to my chest.

4. I can paint my toe nails while driving. I did this morning. They are painted black now.

5. Many of my most favorite movies are kid movies, Disney movies, that kind of thing. Not necessarily the cartoons. My ultimate favorite movie is Hocus Pocus. (I'm 26 years old).

6. I love to clean. When I'm happy or upset. Seeing something dirty and then cleaning it up makes me feel good.

7. My Mom is one of my closest friends. We finish each others sentences and often say the same thing at the same time. She was once chased by a buzzard while riding her bicycle.

8. I love sushi. I do not like mushrooms. My favorite food is...um...well...anything without mushrooms or gelatin!

9. My favorite television show now that "Friends" and "Roseanne" cease to exist is "How I Met Your Mother?"

10. My son, Brae, is turning 4 years old tomorrow. He can color better than me and transforms his action hero "guys" faster than me. He also has his own World of Warcraft character and plays on the computer by himself with no problem. He is the beat of my heart.

11. I love scary movies but have never been able to sit all the way through the original Halloween. Mike Meyers terrifies me.

12. I'm getting married in 30 days to my best friend Brian.

13. I'm a bit of an activist. I write letters for all causes that are important to me. I cause a muck when needed and even though I am only 5'3" I will NOT be bullied. Oh...and it was much harder to do this than I originally thought.


Hey, how do I get that automatic link adder thing?
