100 Random Things About Me


I am totally stealing this idea from another blog I read. I saw it a few weeks ago and never thought I would actually be able to do it. In an evening of complete egocentricity I was able to complete it. I hope it does not bore you to death!

  1. I am going to have a hard time finishing this list.
  2. I don’t like to pet dogs and if I do, I have to wash my hands immediately. This seems rather incongruous as we own an 8 year old Golden Retriever. I rarely pet him.
  3. I feel bad about the fact that I rarely pet my dog.
  4. I have no issues about petting cats.
