11 Things from Carmen!

YAY!! I was tagged in an 11 Things post!!! WOOHOOO! I feel so cool now. AND it was from Carmen, one of my favorite new-ish blogs! DOUBLE FIST PUMP YES!

OK so here's what the heck I'm talking about:

Post a random picture of yourself along with 11 random things about yourself. Then answer the 11 questions that the blogger who tagged  you made. Then pass along the fun-ness by tagging a few more bloggers with 11 new questions from you! So here we go:



1.My picture is from last summer, when we went to Bath. #4 is where Jane Austen lived. I was freakin out excited, as you can see from my ridiculously huge smile and awkwardly red face.
2. As you might have been able to tell from the aforementioned information, I friggin love Jane Austen books.
3. I have major issues with going to the restroom in public places, or if I think someone can hear me. It just weirds me out.
4. I wanted my name to be Amy when I was little. Lord knows why.
5. I pulled my brother's elbow out of socket when he was a baby and I've never been allowed to forget it.
6. My family is abnormally close. And I don't just mean my brother and sisters, I mean my cousins and aunts and second cousins and great aunts and everyone. I would consider my cousins some of my very best friends.
7. My nickname in elementary and middle school was "beaver" because of my gigantic front teeth. I could also fit a couple of pretzel sticks in between those monsters, so of course I was the most popular girl...not.
8. I have this THING with chicken being TOOO chickeny. Like if it's too thick or has too many knobbly things on the sides. If I find an offsensive breast, it's called being "too chicky chicky". This is a product of my Aunt Gigi.
9. I glued my first set of hair extensions in myself.
10. I'm the only child in my family that ended up with my Mom's blue eyes.
11. I have freakishly long toes. They are super skinny and look like fingers. I can also pick things up with them.

Kind of creepy to think about, but ok let me think... I"m not in the bathtub so I can't say for sure, but I'm gonna go with kick back and enjoy the ride. If I HAD to jump, why not have your last moments be enjoyable?
