Things you should know about me if we're going to be BFFs

{Inspired by THIS post, linking up HERE}

I can't leave the house without makeup on.  At least foundation and mascara.  I'm scary without them.

I love mac 'n cheese and would take it over most gourmet meals.

If I think someone doesn't like me, I will go out of my way to try and get them to - even if I have no desire to be their friend.

I found a pair of 1 carat each (2 carats total) diamond earrings about a month before my wedding. I had them appraised and cleaned, and they’re the real deal. No one claimed them, so they became mine and I wore them on my wedding day.  Holla! 

I can hold my pee for waaaaay too long (except for when I'm pregnant.)  I refuse to go to the bathroom in most public places, unlike Leila who will seek out any toilet she can just to check it out.

I won't drink water from the sink.  Blech! We have Alhambra delivered twice a month.  My husband says I'm a water snob.  I agree.

I literally don't know what I would do without my mom.

I am jealous.  And it's getting worse.  I hate it - lately I've been finding myself getting jealous over everything, especially on the blog/twitter world - lack of comments, @ replies, etc...  It's bad.

I rarely buy anything full price.  I live for a bargain and love coupons!

Smoking grosses me out to no end.  I often find myself giving dirty looks to people who are smoking (even though it's totally legal and they have every right to be.) When I see someone smoking right around their child it literally makes me nauseous.

I don't make our bed unless I know people are coming over.

I am petrified of snakes.  Beyond terrified.  I can't even look at them on TV.

I think my kids are cooler than most people's.  My husband feels the same way.  We'll be at an activity and see all of the other kids and think ours are just so much cooler.  I'm sure all parents feel this way.


I have a temper, and my husband is the chill one.  I wish it were reversed.  Many nights I go to bed feeling like a terrible mom.

I love coffee – from anywhere, as long as someone else makes it I love it. If I make it at home it’s so-so at best.

Whenever I get stressed I can’t sleep and I get a cold sore (on the exact same spot) It sucks.

Now it's your turn - tell me what I need to know so we can be BFFs!!
