I’ll do one of these.

So.. My beautiful, wonderful, awesome, lovely wife did a “Tag” thing,  I wasn’t “tagged” but I thought, what the hay, I’ll do one.  Maybe you’ll learn something about me. Do this too, and comment a link to your blog!  Maybe we can all learn something about each other.

5 Joys

• Watching The Office, Top Chef, Heroes or Grey’s Anatomy. I know it’s really sad, but for some reason I am so into all of these shows! (I’ll second this!)
• Helping people with computer stuff. I know it sounds silly, but I get joy from teaching people something new.
• Music.  Any kind pretty much.  I enjoy a beat and something that goes with that.  I love it.. Such a unique beautiful art form.
• being the odd one out.  I like to stand out, and I like to do it with class if I can.  But if I have to make a situation awkward, I will.
• My wife.  Honestly, every day I’ve woken up next to her, I have to stop myself from tears of joy.  She motivates me to live.

5 Fears

• Not being able to protect of help the people I love.
• jail.  I’m not afraid to say that.  I don’t like it, and I get all scared feeling just thinking about it.
• letting people see the real me. I’m a scarred, broken person, I’m afraid if people realize that, they’ll think less of me. (instead I cover it up with comedy)
• singing in front of people.  I like singing, in my room or a small group of friends.
• Letting the ones I love down.

5 Obsessions

• Ok. I’ll say it.  Maybe the computer.
• I tap my foot when I go to bed… at least for a little while.
• Finding ways to use the internet for GOOD.
• Chili!  Mmmm On anything!  Hashbrowns, burgers, ANYTHING.
• Organization of my music files. I have a lot of music, and I have a very weird, but real way to organize.

5 6 Surprising Facts

• I have to use woman’s deodorant. And everything sensitive skin.  I have weird allergies to anything that cleans stuff..
• I love Rap music.  Old Rap music. Bad Rap music. AND I know the words to most of the songs. (As long as it’s from pre 20003.)
• I still get the nervous feelings when I think about my wedding day.  One of the scariest day of my life so far.
• The first time I met Andrea, I thought to myself, “That’s her.” I didn’t know what it meant at the time, I do now.
• I always root for the underdog.  If there is someone who is supposed to lose, I want them to win.  If someone is losing, I want them to come from behind and win.  I’m a sucker for happy endings.
• One more.   I cry at just about anything… Sad Movies, Happy Movies, Sports Movies, Stupid Movies, Talking about sweet moments, thinking about old friends, seeing old friends, when I’m happy, when I’m mad..  I cry.  I get overly emotional in every direction. Angry, happy, sad, whatever.
