I got tagged.....

Apparantly "tagging" is very popular in the blogging world. Tiffany and Ava tagged me. Since I like to do what's popular, I am passing the torch to you Charlene, Ashley, Fern, and Kelli.
These are the instructions:
A. List 7 habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag 7 people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag whoever wants to do it.

Where do I start??? There are so many strange things about me.
1. Seeing or hearing someone brush their teeth makes me physically gag. I have tried not to, but it is a physical reaction I cannot control.
2. I don't love animals. The truth is that I'm secretly afraid of them. I just don't have much experience with them. To quote my favorite TV character, Chandler Bing, "Dogs are jumpy, and needy, and you can't tell what they're thinking - and that kind of scares me". Plus, I got bit by a dog a few weeks ago.
3. I LOVE gameshows - especially JEOPARDY. In fact, I TiVo Jeopardy every day.
4. A bat flew up my prom dress. Enough said.
5. My life revolves around Homecoming. Yes, I realize that I am not in high school, but the life of a student council advisor often resembles that of the students.
6. I love painting my toes REALLY bright colors. Right now they are a bright pinkish orange.
7. I once ate a whole box of Hostess cupcakes in one sitting. The best part is that they didn't even belong to me - they were my roommate Ashley's and I forgot to tell her until she noticed they were all gone :-) Sadly, trying to maintain my new smaller size has eliminated Hostess cupcakes from my life. Oh, how I miss them.

What I really want to know is what strange things YOU think of when you think of me. Comment so that I know what my most memorable quirks are!

Hooray for 3 day weekends!

Whew! I needed a 3 day weekend. School started last week and it was exhausting. Everything went very well, but it was super busy. I teach great classes this year and I'm really looking forward to improving upon the things I did well last year.
I did my best to get school things done on Friday so that I could have a relaxing weekend. It has been lovely so far - sleeping in, reading books, scrapbooking, shopping at my favorite stores (Kohl's, Target, and Ross) and hanging out with friends. All in all, I wish every weekend was 3 days long!
