1000th post

According to my blog post counter. For those of you who have been along for this ride you'll have to remember that I had an old blog before I nearly outed myself/worried about a comment I made on my cousin's blog. Ooops.

So I decided to do a light, fun post. Here's some random facts about me...

1. I like to cross my toes in my shoes.
2. I am told my writing looks like a woman's.
3. I like rocking bright colored shirts from Express.
4. If I weren't a teacher I'd be a television meteorologist, traffic reporter, or entertainment reporter.
5. I'm my biggest critic when it comes to weight. I look down at myself and all I see is fat.
6. Some of the sites I must visit daily include:
- Facebook
- blogger.com
- Just Jared
- www.boxer-or-briefs.com
- Fast Food Maven
- GM Inside News
7. I love trying new foods. On my list of things to try include: banh mi, pho, y nopales.
8. I really want to try making more Mexican food. I tend to have the mindset, "why should I make my own when I live around some of the best Mexican food?" I did make some carne asada last year that was alright, but it could have used more tenderizer on it.
9. The most listened to songs in my iTunes include:
- The Greatest Man I Never Knew- Reba

- You Had Me From Hello- Bon Jovi

- S.O.S. - Jordin Sparks

- Little Wood Guitar- Sugarland

- Pas de Cheval- Panic! At the Disco

- Every Once in a While- Blackhawk
- Rompe - Daddy Yankee

These are songs I NEVER get tired of.
10. Some things on my bucket list include:
- Learn to play guitar
- Become good at line dancing
- Bungee jump - even if it is only at a fair
- Go to Spain, Barcelona especificamente
11. I often hispanicize words, even though I'm pretty guero (white boy). I say things like I want to go to Arisona y I'd like un Esprite to drink. My hispanicizing is done without thinking and realizing it.
12. I was in an elevator the other day with a Mexican guy. He spoke English on the phone until I got in the elevator, then changed to Espanol. I still understood him.
13. "Quieres monkear?" sounds really dirty when you say it to your English speaking friends. It means do you want to hang out?
14. I have the hardest time of matching clothes. I swear, some days nothing matches with blue jeans.
15. The most doable actors right now include:
- George Clooney
- Nick Lachey- did you know he's engaged to Vanessa Milano?
- James Denton
- Tay Lautner
- Ben Affleck
- Matt Damon
- Jesse Metcalfe
16. I can never understand what they're saying in this song. I know they are encouraging me to do the "Walk of Life," pero I don't know much more. They want me to do a song about loving a woman, and doing a song about something else, something about violence, and then doing the walk of life. Sounds complicated.
