100 Things: 76-100.
76. I got my first pedicure today, February 27, 2008.
77. I am currently watching Back to the Future. I have never seen any of the Back to the Future trilogy which, I know, lowers my level of geekdom.
78. I’ve lived in only three Texas towns - Stephenville, Lubbock, and Dallas.
79. I was a drum major in high school for two years. (No, that doesn’t mean I played the drums.)
80. Most personality tests I take remind me I’m a little introverted.
81. I don’t like playing guitar and singing in front of individuals or small groups. I much prefer large settings.
82. I avoid scary/gory movies because I hate how they put mentally disturbing images in my head. I live alone. That’s a recipe for paranoia.
83. I won a Soil and Water Conservation poster contest in 5th grade. I received a plaque with George W. Bush’s signature engraved in it. It’s hanging in the hallway of my parents’ house.
84. I have accidentally called at least two of my teachers “mom.”
85. I was scolded by a teacher when I fell up the stairs. She checked to make sure I was okay and when she found out I was laughing, she was very unhappy with me.
86. I’d like a kitten but I’m allergic and unwilling to load up on Claritin.
87. I had a kitten in college, her name was Kittybeth. Also called her the Percolator (Purrcolator, if you’d like) because she’d purr so loud.
88. It’s hard for me to eat ice cream without a cone. Or cake.
89. Part of me thinks life would be richer if I lived amongst the financially poor.
90. I am pretty sure I have 100+ first cousins on my mom’s side because I have six uncles and five aunts.
91. I have seen the Dallas Stars, Dallas Cowboys, and Texas Rangers. I will be hitting up a Dallas Mavericks game on Easter. So far, I think hockey games are the best to see live.
92. Entertainment Weekly magazines have mysteriously started showing up in my mailbox. Yes, they are addressed to me.
93. I love summers in Texas because it makes me feel like I’m working out when I’m actually just driving my car.
94. I was voted Best Sense of Humor and High School Sweetheart runner-up my senior year of high school.
95. I had never plucked or waxed my eyebrows until my later years of college. Nobody informed me that my eyebrows were thick, furry caterpillars. No, they were!
96. The first time I drank alcohol was at Buffalo Wild Wings in Lubbock. I was 21 1/2 years old. I think I drank 1/3 of a Coors Light bottle.
97. One time I ate 20 Chicken McNuggets within an hour as a bet. I did. I was a little groggy afterwards.
98. I’ve met the founder of Geek Squad, Robert Stephens, at the Best Buy corporate headquarters. He was very nice and chock full of ideas. Coming out of his ears, even. I have mad respect for him.
99. I sleep best when I have a body pillow. It’s easier on the back and I’m a cuddler.
100. I finally finished Back to the Future. Now I know what a flux capacitor is.

You’re in for a real treat to see the Mavericks play! Dallas Mavericks basketball is probably my favorite sport to watch. On TV OR live.

W as Governor of Texas…
