Tag, I am it

Now, I don't get embarrassed very easily, but in my case it is because I really don't care what people think. In fact, the last time I was embarrassed was at a Lagoon party- which leads me to...

Fact/Habit/Embarrassment 1: Jake and I had only been dating less than three months when we went to this Lagoon Christmas Party. The DJ/MC whatever the guy was started harassing Jake because he was with a different girl than he had been with the year before. I can't remember all the guy was saying, but he started in about "will you make a commitment to her right now" or something similar, and I was kind of freaking out. I mean, my sister was sitting there at the table, and well, frankly, I wasn't ready for a proposal or anything (of course, I realize now that that never would have happened, but I didn't know that then). It just all sounded a lot like a set up to me.

Fact/Habit/Embarrassment 2: Since Liz confessed her Hanson thing, I have to confess that I had all of the New Kids on the Block Albums at one point, even a Christmas one.

Fact/Habit/Embarrassment 3: I have all sorts of weird talents. I can pick up things with my toes, including crayons, pens, paper (this comes in very handy when you are pregnant), I can turn over my tongue, and I can fit my entire fist in my mouth, at least I used to be able to (Jake won't let me try it any more, he is afraid it will get stuck).

Fact/Habit/Embarrassment 4: I took AP Psychology in high school and it became my major in college, and I used to conduct Psychological experiments on myself.

Fact/Habit/Embarrassment 5: I was fired from my job at the credit union because someone called and complained that they had heard me say the "f word." So apparently I have a swearing problem, although it is news to me that I do. I promise I have never said the "f word" in my life.

Fact/Habit/Embarrassment 6: I really don't think I have any more. I don't cheat at games (Liz). I am not secretly a superhero. I am pretty much boring, what you see is what you get.

I tag Lisa, Lesley, Vicky, Abbie, Jean and Maren

I LOVE the story about you getting fired. (Sorry. It is just so obsured!)

Now THAT would be a good story to post here, leaving out of course the company name and names of people. I could follow up with my story about getting the stupid HR person at the company to do his job and transfer Brooke's 401K to the IRA we set up.
