I Have A Confession to Make!

Well, I guess I could make several confessions, but my one main confession today is that I am such an ill pot today! I don't know what is wrong with me, but boy am I grumpy! I can't even blame it on PMS. I am just plain grumpy, which is very out of character for me. Confessing my grumpiness did make me feel better- now maybe innocent by-standers will get to keep their heads.

To make this post interesting, I will confess a few other things. Let's see what dirt I can dig up on myself!
  • I recently became hooked on the most horrible television programming ever-The Secret Life of An American Teenager. Oh yes, I wasted a whole day watching the first season on ABC family. It's terrible, but I'm hooked.
  • I really stink at Guitar Hero. We received the game as a gift from a friend this Christmas. I thought it would be easy to pick up-I mean my 7 year old nephew plays it. Nope! Not coordinated enough! Oh, and did I mention that I actually injured myself while trying to play. I pressed the buttons on the guitar so hard that I caused a huge knot to come up on my wrist.
  • I'm really a little old lady in a 29 year old body. Example: If I ever get a napkin or Kleenex, I hang on to it for a good portion of the day. I am one step from hiding them up my sleeve like my grandma. I also hum while I work, and I drove a large, white Buick for a while. By the way, I adored my Buick!
  • I listen to books on CD. Most of my books are considered chick-lit, but some of my books are just a couple of steps away from being romance novels. However, they are not romance novels. There is never any pirates or burning loins.
  • I didn't receive my first kiss until I was 18 years old. I was a late bloomer. However, I caught on like a pro and made up for lost time. Just kissing though. Nothing else.
  • This isn't dirt, but just a rather fun fact. I showed livestock. I showed pigs from 1st grade-12th grade. I also showed lambs in middle school and cows in middle school and high school.
  • Singing in front of people is terrifying to me. I would rather give a speech in front of 100,000 people than have to sing in front of 10 people. Therefore, karaoke is my idea of Hell.
I guess that is enough confessions for today. I will share more later. I haven't begun to break the ice....I mean there are so many sultry affairs and crimes of passion to share with you. Only kidding! I am pretty straight laced, but I definitely have a quirky side that is always up to something!

I didn't have my first kiss until I was 17 and 11 months (almost 18) and in fact that is the only boy I have ever kissed (we got married a couple years later). Were you in 4-H when you showed your livestock? I never did the livestock thing, but I did the Home EC type stuff. I like the confessions - I am pretty straight laced too :)

That Secret Life of the American Teenager show has me hooked on it as well!!! I'm pushing 30 years old (I think you and I are both celebrating a b-day on June 1st if I remember correctly!) and I can't stop watching the darn thing. My husband just looks at me like I'm crazy!!!

We all have GRUMPY days. With my new diet I'm just a plain old bear!!! ; )

Brenda Heisler said...

We can all relate to that. We all have our grumpy days.

I'm like you - a late bloomer. Worked out ok for me.

A stupid show I'm hooked on is Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe. Love that guy!

I had a little funk like that over the holidays...no reason...just grumpy! It's okay...we all deserve a grumpy day here and there:)

Jennifer said...

I have been a little grouchy after the holidays and being with family at all hours of the day. It's fine, you will be back to yourself in no time.

I am so glad that you are also hooked on The Secret Life of the American Teenager. I watched every episode on Sunday! :) I haven't watched the new episode but never fear - I have it on my DVR. Sorry I didn't go to Weight Watchers yesterday. I had dinner plans with a friend from out of town. Miss you!

What a cute blog! No need to be grumpy, be grateful for the wonderful things in life - its too short to be grumpy AND it will only give you wrinkles at your age. (wink!) BTW - I have yet to figure out guitar hero also....

Cheers,
Cindy
