As I mentioned yesterday, I was tagged to do a Seven Random Facts About Me MEME, by my girl Kim over at JoggingInCircles.  In this MEME, I will attempt to write Seven Random/ Fun facts about myself.  I don’t know if I can come up with Seven…but I’ll give it a whirl.

#1- I was once in a serious relationship with John Mayer. 
Yes, the delicious 6’ 5” moppy haired, you either think he was hit with ‘the stick’ or blessed from above, zexxxxy ass guitarist, John Mayer.  Ok, Ok.  So it wasn’t serious, but we dated for quite some time.  Alright, Alright.  We didn’t even date.  I hung out with him one night after he played a two night gig at Irving Plaza in Manhattan, only after stalking his brothers to find out where the after party was going to be.  Note:  I’m not nearly as obsessed anymore….Just for the record.

#2- I bring a glass of water to bed with me every night.
I don’t have to be thirsty to drink water.  I drink so much of it that I don’t understand how it’s safe.  Well maybe it’s not safe.  Either way, whether I drink it or not, it has to be on my night table while I’m sleeping, just in case.  Often I wake up in the morning and there is half a glass left, but it is comforting knowing it is there for me should I need it.

#3- I am SUPER ticklish and can even tickle myself.
Growing up my uncle would tickle me until I would cry!  How terrible is that.  It turned very not fun and got quite old, real quick.  Then one day I realized I could tickle myself (I always thought that was impossible, although it’s very possible I could be wrong and then that would make this “random fact” really really dumb).  There’s a spot just about 2 inches or so in from my pelvic bone that I need to be careful with.

#4- I am afraid of my own shadow.
I hate being home alone when it’s dark outside.  Hell, even when it’s light out and my phone rings, I jump 3 feet.  On the nights I forget to bring my glass of water up to bed with me, I will try and coax one of the dogs to get out of their bed to accompany me down stairs to the kitchen.  Often times I end up going it alone and once I hit the bottom landing of the stairs I R-U-N like hell to the kitchen.  Then I R-U-N like hell back to the stairs and back up to bed!  Idiot.

#5- I am even more afraid of thunder and lightening.
 I drill my fingers into my ears and shut my eyes so tight it hurts.  I then proceeded to cover my head with a cover and pray that it ends.  My house was struck by lightening when I was little and I blame this for my paranoia.

#6- I would love to have twins.
Knowing that there is a possibility of a multiple birth pregnancy with the treatment we are undergoing doesn’t scare me….as long as it’s no more multiple than twins that is!  I can totally see my husband and me with two little ones at once and think I would definitely go for a “third” afterwards.  Of course at this point we are praying we can even have one!

#7- I DESPISE fish.
Everything about it.  The look.  The horrid smell when you cook it.  UGH!  I used to dine on fish sticks when I was a kid, but ‘not no mores’!  Some people just don’t understand why you don’t like it and will always attempt to get you to try it, but N.O.!  The furthest I will go is Calamari.  Fried Calamari.  So fried that the calamari is no longer “chewy” and “tough”, but instead tender and melting in your mouth. 
Pretty boring, huh!  Sorry.  So now I have to tag seven others.  I am going to start with Nola over at NolaNotes and The Duchess, over at TheDuchess. 
Here are the rules:
1. Link to the person’s blog who tagged you.
2. Post these rules on your blog.
3. List seven random and/or weird facts about yourself.
4. Tag seven random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs.
