My own tag

I was tagged a few weeks ago by lisa to list 25 random things about myself. that seems like a daunting task, so here is my own made up conglomeration of "tags" done in groups of 5's, 6's, and 7's. again, with the random theme.

Five random facts:
1. I am a sucker for infomercials. Despite my common sense and better judgement, I have ordered (but do not use) the slim in 6 program, a stationary bike for your feet, those really sharp scissors that are supposed to cut a penny, self tanning wipes, a pancake flipper thingy, and a ped egg.
2. Though I know I probably won't use the product after it comes out of the box, I want one of those blankets with arm holes in it, your baby can read dvd's, the 90X challenge series workout dvd, a microphone ear thing that would let me hear the tv better when dan is asleep, and that microdermabrasion wand that susan lucci promotes.
3. I moved 20 times in 27 years and was in 7 school systems before I finished high school.
4. I have four tattoos and Dan and I are working on the next one. I think I would cover my arms in sleeves of them if it were more acceptable. and if I wasn't so prone to changing my mind.
5. I nearly died in a car accident in high school. I flipped my car going 90 miles an hour down interstate 20 across the median and then was hit from behind by an 18 wheeler.

Six Things I wish I could Do:
1. Follow through with things. I am the best starter and the worst finisher.
2. Travel more
3. Fly (not on a plane. like superman.)
4. Accept that God simply loves me for me and not what I do. I'm getting there...
5. Be in two places at once
6. Speak another language fluently.


Five Mommy Confessions:
1. The other day I realized around 3 in the afternoon that I hadn't changed Grace's diaper since 8 that morning.
2. I still HATE drool. cut the teeth already!
3. If I could get away with it, if it were socially acceptable, and if my child would do it, I would nurse Grace waaaayyyyy past one. But call me crazy, when your child can talk and ask for it, I think it's time.
4. I find baby einstein videos eerily mesmerizing
5. For the first three months of Grace's life, I felt like a success if I had brushed my teeth by the time Dan came home from work.
