Linking up with Living In Yellow for this one. We'll just call today "learn too much about Cat" day. Right. Here we go:
One
Before I was married, I didn't want any kids. Once I got married, we had 3 kids in 3 years. Woah. But aren't they precious?

Two
I hate coffee. But I like things that are coffee flavored. And if I have any caffeine I am certifiably insane for a while, then crash and sleep for hours. Not pretty.
Three
I had an eating disorder in college. It did horrible things to my health, and I feel like a moron for letting it happen. I'm hoping I'm better now. This picture scares me.

Four
For most of my life I grew my hair to my waist then cut it to my shoulders (and donated to locks of love) in 4 year cycles. Haven't done that since I had kids, though.
Five
I married the only guy I ever dated. And I am so blessed to have him.

Six
I majored in drama in college and have barely ever used my degree. Not a lot to do with it in my town. I miss it a lot (here's me as Kate from Taming of The Shrew).

Seven
I'm terrified of flying. Like, sick to my stomach, want to cry every time I'm on a plane scared. But I have seen some of the most beautiful sights of my life from a plane window.

Eight
I have zero fashion sense. 90% of the clothes in my closet are hand-me-downs from my fashionable sister-in-law. And I still can't figure out how to wear half of them.
Nine
I would rather buy something for a super great deal than buy something with a super great brand name. Function over fashion for sure.
Ten
I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.
Eleven
I have a complex where I really want to be good at everything. So I try to do way too many things and then fail at most of them. Some day I'll figure it all out.
Twelve
My favorite authors include: Mark Twain, Charles Dickens, Harold Pinter and William Shakespeare. My favorite book is To Kill A Mockingbird.
Thirteen
My writing style tends to very closely reflect whomever I'm reading at the time. My playwriting prof hated my Eugene O'Neill phase (he was much relieved when I moved on to Pinter).
Fourteen
I'm embarrassed by how much I don't know about the Star Wars and Star Trek universes (and, really, all things geek).
Fifteen
I own 18 shirts from shirt.woot.com. And I'm probably not done. It's a problem.
Sixteen
I wish I were athletic. However, every time I work out, I blow out one joint or another. I probably have the lungs of an 80 year old. It's pathetic.
Seventeen
I love air-hockey and I'm actually pretty good at it.
Eighteen
I can't eat gluten, but I'm learning to cook without it - mostly successfully.

I am seriously technologically un-savvy. I wish I were cool like that, but I don't own a smart-phone, I only use Linux because my husband set it up for me, I don't even know the names of the video game systems that are out right now, and I only might be able to tell you the difference between an i-pod, i-pad, and i-phone. Some day I'm really going to embarrass my kids....
Twenty
My taste in music is really eclectic. I listen to everything from Christian hip-hop to Johnny Cash. I don't like some oldies, some country, and really really heavy metal. But otherwise my tastes are all over the place.
Twenty One
I think flannel is one of the best inventions ever. Flannel pajamas, flannel sheets (and in the '90s I was known to rock those flannel shirts). Hello cozy.
Twenty Two
My kids have their own fridge. Yup - after the egg incident we swapped the big fridge for two minis. One for them, one for us. So far, it's working beautifully!

I am definitely one of those ladies who will freak out when I turn 30. Probably because I still feel 19. Apparently, my dentist still thinks I am 19. Funny stuff.
Twenty Four
I went to an all-girl's high school. I moved a week before starting school there. In my entire high-school career I knew maybe a dozen boys my age. And in the end, I call it a blessing.
Twenty Five
When I started this blog, I promised myself I'd never write entries like this. However, my brain is in vacation mode this week and I can't seem to get myself to do anything that isn't 'fun and frivolous' (I'm totally ignoring that stack of Christmas gifts I need to finish). I hope you've had fun reading this
