Two Year Blogaversary

Well, I think I’ve kept it up, my blog that is. I say that because my first post was titled, “We’ll see if I keep this thing up…“ How crazy it is to me that I have had two years worth of information that have been of somewhat interest to you people. I mean really, I don’t think my life, or my writing is that intriguing at all.

However, I know that whether or not people read this thing, it has been such a such a fun, interesting thing to look back on. And of course a fun memory keeper, which is truly one of the most fun things about blogging. And need I even mention the huge blessing and encouragement you all have been to me these past years? I would have never thought in a million years that I would have met some seriously fun, and seriously funny ladies on the Internet, let alone meet them and start a friendship with them. What an unexpected blast that has been!

So, in honor of my two year blogaversary, as if my blog is not already enough all about me, I am going to list a bunch of randoms about me you may or may not know. I will go until I run out of randomness. Which could be fairly quick because I’m not the most interesting being on the planet. Nor am I that creative. So, here goes the random facts of Lindsee that I know you care, and are dying to know.

- I am not completely OCD but have some major OCD tendencies.
- Some of these tendencies include: my night time and shower routine. Since about 6th grade, I have washed my face every single night. I cannot, and will not go to sleep unless my face is free of anything that will clog the pores. If I happen to fall asleep, I will get up even if it’s 2 a.m. and wash my face. It is sad, I know. Just ask the peeps I live with.
- My shower routine is also the same every time. This includes shaving my legs every single shower. Even in the winter. I have issues with spiky legs. My own, not yours.
- I am one of the least competitive people you will ever meet, which I think is why I was never that into sports, even though the volleyball coach in high school consistently asked if I would join the team. Little did she know that me and the ball were never one. And plus, I consider myself physically challenged.
- I am a “sweet tooth” girl. Therefore when I am around anything sweet, “Self-Control” is one of the lowest fruits on the totem pole. I am seeking the Lord on this one. Both he and I know I could do without.
- I have very long eyelashes.
- Because of my very long eyelashes, it takes me just as much time to do my mascara as it does to put on my entire face every morning. I have come to embrace this fact, others, however, don’t understand. That is of course unless you are a BFF or my family. They are so patient with my morning routine. Let’s face it, I like to take my time.
- I am currently in the process of growing out my hair. I chopped it all off about a year and a half ago, and to say I miss it is a sad understatement.
- Part of the reason I am growing it back out is because my hair is naturally wavy/curly. When it is short, the curly does not work well. And frankly, it knocks a good 30 minutes off my morning routine. I am needing some long, curly hair again.
- I love to laugh. Probably my favorite thing to do in the entire world. And believe me, when I get tickled, there is no turning back.
- I am easily entertained, so therefore, I enjoy almost anything entertaining. Especially when it comes to music and movies.
- I love babies. Not in the I-want-a-baby-tomorrow way, but I have always loved them. I’m pretty sure I started babysitting when I was in 6th grade. I am very comfortable around them, and have been know to put a few to sleep every now and then. Really, it’s the “Bop” that does the trick. I learned that from my Mom.
- In a strange way, even though I have never had one, dogs are drawn to me. I call myself the dog whisperer. Why can’t I be the boy whisperer?
- I am, I think 6ft. tall. If not, I am right under it.
- With that said, I have a 37 inch inseam. No lie. I am all legs.
- I am a pretty patient person except for when it comes to driving behind somebody that is either going the exact speed limit, or a little below. Because, we all know that if you are behind that person, you are not going the speed limit.
- It is a hug pet peeve of mine when people do awful parking jobs. Like, take-up-ten-spaces parking jobs. Who gave them them the parking pass to park wherever, and whenever you please. I am certain the world would be a happier place if you only take up the one you were given.
- I was the first of my family born in Texas to a California dad, and a Colorado mom.
- I really like shoes and bags.
- I used to love the Broadway shoe Aida, which I saw 3 times. Twice in New York, and once in Houston.
- This led to my love of Heather Headley, whom I just watched on T.V. singing with Josh Groban. It was a little slice of heaven.
- I had the amazing privilege to sing with Josh Groban at the Superbowl along with my 2 brothers, Jen, and some other alumni from Houston Children's Chorus when it was in Houston.
- I went to Italy for two weeks where we traveled to Rome, Venice and Florence. As much as I hated leaving my parents for that long (I was in 8th grade) I didn't want to come home. I LOVED Italy.
- To put myself to sleep, or when I am really tired, I rub my feet together unintentionally. I am always really nervous when I am sharing a bed with someone that doesn't know this about me that they will get really annoyed. So therefore, I try not to do it. However, when I don't do it, I truly don't fall asleep as easily. It's weird, I know.
- I love reading. However, I used to hate reading. I love it so much now that I have, in recent weeks, stayed up till 4 a.m. reading. Yes, we are working on self-control.
- I find it extremely sad that I missed my one year blogaversary, my 100th post and my 200th post. Hopefully I’ll make something of my 300th post, which is only 5 posts away. But really, what in the world could I do for my 300th post? I have a feeling it will be extremely boring, just like I was extremely sad I missed the rest of those monumental moments in blog world.
- On that note, my randomness is over at number 27. I am sure you were highly amused.
