The lovely <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eatdrinkandrun.com\/2011\/10\/17\/ten-things-meme\">Shelby <\/a>tagged me and since her blog is in my top 5 favorites, I had to do it.<\/p>\n<p>1. I hate mushrooms. Period. Will never eat them. Hate the texture, the flavors, the concept. Everything about them grosses me out. Same with tequila. Not related.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/mushrooms-5620.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-24994\" title=\"mushrooms-5620\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/mushrooms-5620-300x244.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"244\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/mushrooms-5620-300x244.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/mushrooms-5620.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>2. I&#8217;m a linear person and I&#8217;m also very direct. I struggle a great deal with communicating with people who are not linear. I want lists, bullet points, direct answers. I struggle with this a lot and wish I could be better.<\/p>\n<p>3. I used to be able to watch scary movies. I LOVED them. Now? They give me nightmares for a week. Example: recently watched the first episode of &#8220;American Horror Story&#8221; and I swear to Goddess I had nightmares for 3 nights in a row and was totally afraid of the dark.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/030809023444_creepy-kids.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-24948\" title=\"030809023444_creepy-kids\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/030809023444_creepy-kids-300x191.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"191\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/030809023444_creepy-kids-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/030809023444_creepy-kids.jpg 455w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>4. Which leads me to #4&#8211;CREEPY CHILDREN terrify me. The scariest part of any horror movie for me is a demonic, possessed, evil or creepy child. No idea why.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/creepy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-24947\" title=\"creepy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/creepy-300x268.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/creepy-300x268.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/creepy.jpg 492w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>5. I used to love baking and did it a lot. I was really good at it too. I miss creating delicious desserts. But, I don&#8217;t trust myself to bake something and not eat all of it myself, so I just avoid it all together.<\/p>\n<p>6. I chew gum when I run. It feels weird to run without it.<\/p>\n<p>7. I love roulette. It&#8217;s my favorite Vegas game. I play just for fun, I have no illusions of winning. I don&#8217;t really play the same numbers each round, I just go with my gut. I win enough to keep playing. That&#8217;s about it!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/n710682526_1549184_2865.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-25001\" title=\"n710682526_1549184_2865\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/n710682526_1549184_2865-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/n710682526_1549184_2865-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/n710682526_1549184_2865.jpg 604w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>8. I LOVE Scrabble. I play Words with Friends because I love it. For me, it&#8217;s about the words. For most other people (especially Michael) it&#8217;s a math game, to make words that have the highest points and play offensively to block the other person from good spots. I don&#8217;t really play like that, even though I should.<\/p>\n<p>9. I feel like I&#8217;m &#8220;nesting&#8221; lately. I have no idea why. Maybe it&#8217;s because I&#8217;m getting older. Maybe it&#8217;s the dark Fall weather. Lately I just want to spend my time watching movies, TV shows, bake and cook new recipes. Weird.<\/p>\n<p>10. Sometimes it would be nice to be known for something other than losing 110 pounds.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, tagging <a href=\"http:\/\/www.findingradiance.com\">Lori<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bethsjourney.com\/\">Beth<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/thesentimentalsuitcase.blogspot.com\">Samantha<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.faithfitnessfun.com\">Tina <\/a>and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.justjill.us\">Jill<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>QUESTION: Want to share something about yourself?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Confession: totally loved the movie &#8220;Ten Things I Hate About You&#8221;\u00a0but that&#8217;s not what this post is about.
