Random 25 Tag

I feel very lazy this morning, and didn't sleep at all well, so I am taking the easy way out today by posting another tag that has been waiting for me to do. This one is a 25 Random things (facts, habits, goals, quirks, etc.) about me. Then, if any of you are takers, feel free--but there is no pressure to perpetuate this!

1-I prefer pebbled ice to any other kind of ice in a drink.
2-Diet Coke tastes better at Hart’s than any other Gas ’n Sip in town.
3-I can’t understand how someone can live in the same town their whole life, marry someone else they went to high school with in their home town and then raise their family in the same town.
4-I love to hear the Harry Potter books read to me by Jim Dale, but only after I have read them once myself. After that, I can listen to him read it every time.
5-I consider books and the films based on those books (i.e., Harry Potter, Twilight, Jane Austen’s works) to be separate stories.
6-I love butter cream frosting on cake.
7-I love raspberry filled white cake with butter cream frosting the best of all.
8-I don’t love ice cream.
9-I am terrified of snakes.
10-I can kill spiders with my bare hand, even when I am naked in the shower.
11-I can’t believe I put that mental picture of myself naked in your minds just now. Eeeewwww.
12-I believe sheep to be the stupidest animals on the face of the earth.
13-I don’t care to shop for clothes.
14-I don’t like shoes, either.
15-If I had to live in another country besides America it would probably be Australia, New Zealand or Great Britain. Right hand driving is the biggest obstacle.
16-I think that Monty Python is hilarious.
17-I sometimes wonder who first figured out how good crab was to eat.
18-I worry that I am not doing enough good in my sphere of the world.
19-I generally put hand lotion on every morning as I wait for my computer to boot up.
20-In my mind I am a humor columnist, a la Dave Barry.
21-I’ve never tried smoking, but did try drinking alcohol and was sicker than I have ever been in my life.
22-I regret not appreciating my grandparents more when they were alive.
23-I am grateful for parents who let me try lots of different things growing up.
24-I feel like I am still just out of high school, but am beginning to see the reality, and necessity, of being far older than that in real life.
25-It makes me happy when I can make people laugh, even if I end up being the butt of the joke.

New Zealand baby.....you would be a perfect KIWI. Driving on the otherside of the road is EASY just always remember the driver is ALWAYS next to the line in the middle of the road. If you look at your window and yous don't see a line on the road then yous most likely is gonna die!!!!

I have to say that killing spiders while naked in the shower is a true talent. One that I will never, I repeat, NEVER be able to master. You are a marvel that is called Shauna.
