100 Things... The Project That Wouldn't Die

Happy Monday my darling Internet! I looked over all of your suggestions for getting some schooling on web design, and I’m definitely going to look into those online programs you mentioned. Today I shall regale you with numbers 41-50 of my 100 Things About Me series.

41) My favorite guilty pleasures author is Sophie Kinsella. I absolutely love the Shopaholic series and only wish that I could find a hot PR hunk who could buy me all my hearts desires.

42) I love show tunes and can almost always find a way to fit them into everyday conversation (because I’m good, aren’t I grand, aren’t I great aren’t I swell, aren’t I fun, but nothing stays.)

43) I don’t have any live plants anywhere in my house—I have a fake banana tree in the bathroom, and that’s all. The less responsibility for other living things, the better.

44) I’ve ridden a horse two times in my life, and quite frankly, they scare me to death.

45) I’m right handed, but find it easier to snap with my left hand. Also, when I fold my arms, my left hand is on top.

46) I love to wrap presents—particularly when the gift is a shape other than a cube. It’s so fun to try to find a way to wrap it so that it looks neatly done!

47) I hate to do laundry. H-A-T-E. As soon as you’re done with one load there’s another one ready to go in—it’s rather like a punishment out of a Greek myth.

48) I think that my feet have shrunk recently—I used to wear a size 9, sometimes up to 9 ½ dress shoe, now I’m down to an 8. (And don’t tell me that manufacturers have just started giving larger shoes smaller sizes, because I will not hear you)

49) I actually had a blog a couple of years ago before I even knew what a “blog” was. It is dead now; however, it was a beautiful thing, really beautiful…

50) My middle name is Noelle. You may now commence with the singing. I shall even begin for you… “The first Noel, the angels did say…”

yeah, because Mom and Dad forced you to be right handed. They're like, part of the coalition against left handed people, and they could not have a daughter with such a deformity!!!

[Jass]

I hate doing laundry too! I procrastinate until I have nothing else to wear. LOL

[Plain Jane]

I don't mind doing the laundry, it's the putting it away that I hate.

Line 2: "was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay.."

Your 100 Things are utterly fascinating. Though the red of wallpaper hurts my eyes.... If you're interested in trying something new, I have now replaced my computer chair with my oversized yoga ball, and it totally rocks (or bounces, as the case may be)!

[Becky]

That is so odd that your foot has shrunk. That's the first I've heard of it for anyone under the age of say...50.

Goodness, my feet have gone up half a size with each child (which meant a shocking full size leap with the twins!) - HEY, I should add that to my half finished 100 things!

And CONGRATULATIONS! You're the site of the day at Michele's today - expect more comments very, very soon...

[Ally]

Can I pinch No.47?

Here via Michelle, she says 'hi'!

[kenju]

Michele sent me this morning, Angela. Congrats on being the site of the day. I love your list and the next time I read it, I promise to play Enya and sing the First Noel!

[Mo]

Hello Angela, Michele sent me.

I'm right with you on #43... I "grow" the most beautiful silk plants at home!

[Plumkrazzee]

Love the name!! So pretty. =) Congrats of SOTD, Michele sent me.

[sandy]

I used to have plants in my house. Now I have dead sticks with brown leaves.

Hi, Michele sent me. Congrats on being site of the day.

[Erin]

The last thing I did before going to bed last night was read through your 100 things. Then this morning I wake to find you are site of the day! Congratulations! And obviously, I am here from Michele's!

[Katarina]

Lovely site! And I hate laundry too. Well, I think Id like it if it stayed finished for awhile. But you always have this starter batch fermenting in the corners. Just like dishes. You wash them all, and you ALWAYs wind up with one dirty cup in the sink at the end. I'm so glad Michele sent me here ;o)

[Candace]

Hi, Michele sent me. What a LOVELY blog! You know, a lot of times those "100 Things" are just, well, interest-challenged. But yours? I'm reading and enjoying every single word! And you're a book-lover, too. I'm so glad to have found you! Have a great day- you're going to be busy, for sure (my old blog was SOTD once, so I know).

[Megan]

I don't keep plants either; I feel too guilty when they die. Sometimes I think they actually commit suicide, but I can't prove it.

Hi - Michele sent me!

[Marie]

I'm getting away from live plants more and more. I recently put an old dish garden that had turned into an overgrown mess of a jungle outside...to cease living. I know, it's awful. I like the idea of a fake banana tree. Really like that.

Michele sent me! Happy Day!

[Deana]

I've only read one of the Shopaholics...I did like it. I used to be that way until I actually got out of credit card debt. Now I make better decisions knowing how hard it is to pay for all that shopping! Michele sent me!

[Janet]

I had to try #45...my right hand ended up on top LOL (I'm a righty).

Hi, Michele sent me!

[Aginoth]

must get round to doing an updated list

[NetChick]

Hi Angela! Thanks for dropping by my site yesterday! This 100 things list is a great way to put it together...

(I hate doing laundry too... It always gets washed and dried and then I never seem to find time to fold and put away. How frustrating!)
