1. I love living in Ohio and having four distinct seasons. There’s always something to look forward to… and it always happens just as soon as you get sick of the current season. I love this about my job, too. Each season brings a new set of sports and a new set of teams. It’s refreshing.
2. In the past year, I’ve probably consumed the same amount of alcohol that I would consume in a weekend in college.
3. I know how to keep the book at baseball games, and really enjoy doing this when I cover games.
4. I sincerely love working with teenagers. I love their energy and humor, and I love watching them grow up and discover who they are. It’s such a cool time in people’s lives.
5. Although my grandmother and many extended family members live in England, I have never been there. I have no explanation for this, but hope to change it soon.
6. I had braces in 7th and 8th grade, but got them again in August because my teeth were shifting back and getting worse. My orthodontist promises I will have them off by August 2009.
7. I take in strays.
8. I believe I have over-developed senses of hearing and smelling, but need glasses to drive.
9. My two best friends are polar opposites, and the three of us complete each other. We’re always 2 and 1. Except that we all have stereotypical Asian girl names and hang out at Caribou coffee.
10. I don’t eat mammals or birds, but sometimes have fish.
11. I am very self-conscious about my height. So don’t state the obvious, asshole.
12. I am a horrible driver, but may be a worse passenger. My anxieties in cars stem from being hit by a drunk driver when I was sixteen.
13. Since graduating college, I have lived with each of my brothers. You try it, then let me know how it worked out for you.
14. I listen to the Howard Stern show every day. Howard reminds me of my father, my uncle Charlie, and my manfriend, Tom.
15. On average, I hear the National Anthem 4 times a week at various athletic events. Sometimes, I am moved to tears. And sometimes, I take calls.
16. I believe the single biggest problem in this country is our lack of age-appropriate comprehensive sexuality education.
17. I have such an irrational fear of chalk, that I usually just tell people I’m allergic.
18. The coolest thing I’ve ever been a part of is winning the national championship in 2005 with the Mount Union Purple Raider football team.
19. I have worked at a high school, bar, hospital, pet store, theater, athletic club, restaurant, batting cage facility, and church...among others.
20. Although I threatened to call Child Protective Services when I didn’t get my way growing up, and frequently told my parents that they needed parenting classes… they were excellent parents and I am proud now to be their daughter and friend.
21. My boyfriend is the funniest human I know.
22. I loved living in a 10x13 dorm for two years in college, and love the remember whens that come with those memories.
23. Taking four years of Latin in high school was one of the best decisions I ever made.
24. I hate Type As and neat freaks. Because they’re annoying and I wish I were one.
25. If I could be on MTV’s MADE… I would want to be made into an acoustic lounge singer like Lisa Loeb.
