Tag! I'm it!

I was tagged by Jan awhile ago. It took me a while to think of 7 weird things about me (ha. I wish!) but here they are!

1. I was pulled over 16 times before I got my first speeding ticket. My first 2 tickets were both while I was serving my mission. In the same town. Where they publish your name in the paper.

2. I was bit by a dog AND a goose on the same day while I was on my mission. I like dogs. I hate geese. Unless they are flying. Then they are OK.

3. I fell over a waterfall the day before I was supposed to get baptized. I don't know how to swim, so I almost drowned. (there is a really neat story that goes with this... I better blog it!)

4. I fell down my stairs holding my baby (thing3) and sprained my knee. They thought it was broken, but it was just one of the worst sprains the ER had ever seen. I had to go to months of physical therapy to get my knee to bend again. Damn black sandals (that I love).

5. I used to be a travel agent, so I was always able to get wicked awesome deals on airfare. I went to Hong Kong and only spent $37.00 each way. The job was all about the perks, baby!

6. I had someone road rage me and chase me in my car for over 30 minutes once. I was new to the area, and so I didn't know where the police station was. I flew into a gas station and was waiting in line to use the phone when I saw the van pull into the gas station... I burst out screaming! I scared the crap out of everyone inside the gas station... they came to my rescue and saved me, however, they neglected to get the license plate of the road rager!

7. I have an unhealthy fear of utility vans (see above). I was convinced as a child that only kidnappers drove those kinds of vans. If I have to walk past a "kidnapper van" I will wait until a bunch of people are walking... so that I don't get stolen and drug into the kidnapper van. The road rage incident only solidified the notion that crazy people or kidnappers drive those kind of vans.

Wasn't that fun?? I could go on and on about all the weird stuff that is the Motherboard... but I will save it for when I need something to blog about!
