This is me:
- I drink milk straight from the carton 95% of the time.
- I only recently started singing in the shower and I've converted to it.
- I've never seen The Lord of the Rings.
- I've never read Harry Potter.
- Most things that I love to do can also be described as super nerdy/old school: sewing, baking, embroidery, crocheting, and reading.
- My biggest pet peeve (non human related, anyway) is open cupboards.
- It makes me happy to see every shape and size of person running. Regardless, I judge every runner/jogger I see on their form.
- I dismiss every runner/jogger I see as a fake if they are wearing Nikes.
- My all time favorite place to shop is DI (love the bargains and the laughs).
- I am pretty sure (like 99.9%) that James Franco is the sexiest man alive.
- I have 75 first cousins on my Dad's side alone.
- When I was little, I always planned that if I got cancer and got hooked up with the Make-A-Wish program, I'd wish to meet Neil Diamond.
- I think showering is overrated.
- One of my favorite books is Walk To Remember, and I've yet to read it without crying.
- I am absolutely and completely terrified of what I want most in life: getting married and having kids.
- My favorite smell is new backpacks (the cheap-o plastic kid ones).
- I'm a cryer. I cry at everything. But I'm a closet cryer...so it's likely that you've never seen the tears.
- I will only eat pretzels that are Rold Gold Tiny Twists.
- I feel incredibly lazy when watching movies unless I'm with a big group of people.
- Even I think my running habits are on the side of obsession.
- I cannot for the life of me pronounce the word "rural."
- When I go shopping, I touch anything that looks soft or oddly textured.
- I'm horrified by snakes. Even little dinky ones. Even pictures of them. Even shoelaces on the ground that resemble them.
- My favorite color is coral. But if you're a boy and you ask, I'll probably tell you something else because I don't want to explain the color coral to you.
- I pretty much always judge books by the covers.
- I love dance parties. Especially ones that are in my kitchen when I'm donning an apron.
- If I had cable TV, I'd spend most of my days watching Say Yes to the Dress, What Not to Wear, and Cake Boss.
- I'm also slightly embarrassed to admit that I love the food channel. Doesn't really matter which show.
- I'm a quarter German.
- I think 73 degrees is the best temperature.
- The most boring date I've been on was watching the Super Bowl. And it was a first date.
- I think my family is basically the most rockin' awesome family of all...no exceptions.

I hate open cupboards, too! I love coral, too! I hate pink, but love coral. I'm glad you judge books by the covers. That's the way to go. Also, those are fabulous choices in tv shows.
I could have sworn we have more first cousins than that...of course I am counting all those that became part of the family after marriages...such as the Jensen clan. I think you have closer to 86...approx.
I thought it was 82 descendents, minus my siblings...but I could be wrong...
That's a great picture of you, Kim. And a fantastic post besides. It made me remember fondly our high school days . . . .
Whoa. We're old. We remember high school. Yuck.
One of my secrets: I'm afraid to cook. I'm really bad at it, and so I kind of avoid it whenever possible. This is one of the many obstacles standing between me and a husband. Ah well.
Just wanted to say how much I love your writing.
P.S. You and I have a lot in common. :)
What?! You're a non-rural pronouncer too!? How did I not know this? I get teased about it all the time from your brother.
Your make-a-wish makes me giggle. Why does it not surprise me?
What running shoes do you recommend since you're anti-nike?
I hate open cupboards too. Spencer, on the other hand, is an open cupboard-leaver.
James Franco...mmmm.
Despite what my hooligans might've convinced you, marriage and family is the best scary decision a girl can make. promise :)
ps-Georgia says, "Hello, I love you, Aunt Kim. And I like all your pink [s]tuff."
James Franco!

okay 1, I didn't know you had a blog so one of us is fired... probably me.
2, I love this post, so fun. 3, there are worse obsessions than running, at least that's what I keep telling myself. And 4, I laughed really hard when I came to the snake bullet because I remembered the time we saw the dead snake in the road and you jumped from my left side to my ride side before I could even blink.
The end, love you Kim! Congrats on school and life, you seem to be doing awesome!
