Too much me. On a weekend even.

I don't like writing getting to know you posts. You're probably thinking that I'm only saying that because I got nothing. Well you're totally right. This girl is hopped up on Nyquil tonight and watching Gremlins. Much better than it was 20 years ago. I suck at summing myself in ten random facts. I'd like to think a good portion of what I'm all about comes out in the rest of my blog.

Still, if I'm forced to do this (what? you don't think some random blogger fairy got all gangster on me and is holding a  loaded keyboard at my head? Think again.), if I have to do this, I'll give it my best.

So here they are, ten random Mel facts.

1) Big family. This is important because I end up writing something family related every 42 minutes. Luckily most of it doesn't make it up here. Don't want to get dis-invited to Christmas.

2)I'm still scared to sleep alone at night. When I have to I usually have multiple weapons positioned around the room, just in case.

3)I still don't know how to properly apply makeup. No amount of you tube videos can remedy this. This goes for my hair too. It is what it is.

4)I feel like I could win Project Runway is I could sew. And draw. And remember all the fabulous designs I dreamt about the night after I had a root canal.

5)I have never tried Sweet Tea and I never will. It sounds disgusting.

6)I eat Thanksgiving dinner whenever an opportunity presents itself. I live in a town full of casino buffets. The opportunity presents itself plenty.

7)My child is currently walking around gnawing on a whole baguette. I won't stop him because A) he looks cute, kind of French even, and B) this ensures I won't inhale it later.

8)I'm terrible at listening to voicemail. I think my mailbox has been full for a couple of months.

9)I can't decide if my dream house is a giant farmhouse with modern touches on a picturesque property or a loft in the city with a platform bed.  Can't I have both? Or at least one of them? Who do I talk to about getting set up with a trust fund?

10)My husband has the greatest laugh known to man. Lofty claim, I know, but I speak the truth.

As a bonus you should know that no matter how many times I edit a post for grammatical errors I miss something. My brain just has a difficult time catching those things. It's a skimmer. So my bad, in advance yo.
