#51-75

Here is your third dose of random facts.

51. I cry during almost every episode of Grey’s Anatomy.
52. I have a soft spot for animals and I get easily upset if I think one is hurt, lost or in trouble.
53. I am not a crier but I do have the occasional meltdown.
54. Mr KT is especially patient with me when this happens.
55. The first time I cried in front of him was because he majorly dropped me on a bike ride.
56. I was born in Wyoming and am a cowgirl at heart.
57. I love to ride horses especially when I can go fast.
58. I lived in Arizona for 5 months after undergrad.
59. I loved the mountains and desert but missed the grass and pastures.
60. I HATE plucking my eyebrows.
61. I blush very, very easily. Bright red.
62. I very rarely paint my nails and when I do, I use clear polish.
63. I have no idea what the point of clear nail polish even is.
64. I can squat 135 lbs 10 times.
65. I hate to hear my alarm clock go off and so I always wake up subconsciously 1 minute before it goes off.
66. I like mornings and usually get up right away.
67. I have had one broken toe (goofing around with my brother) and one broken finger (falling off uneven bars in high school). That is it for broken bones.
68. One of my favorite parts of the day is when I climb in to my bed and Brick snuggles in on top of the covers between my knees and Kona curls up under my armpit.
69. I don’t mind speaking in front of large groups but I hate asking questions during a lecture. My ears, face and neck turn bright red.
70. In high school, I had an anatomy teacher that made us cook and eat everything that we dissected. I tried everything. Most of it was really, really bad.
71. I love fleece. (Blankets, gloves, hats, pants, vests, jackets, blankets, you name it.)
72. I could sleep anytime, anywhere. I believe that it is because I am relaxed and not sleep-deprived. (See # 43)
73. I really only like to breathe on my right when swimming because when I breathe to the left I get water in my ear. However, I am determined to have this fixed by the 2008 season. I have already started practicing it during swim workouts.
74. I love camping with my husband. There is something sexy about a guy who can build a fire with very few tools and doesn’t mind if he gets a little dirty in the process.
75. One of the only things I really dislike about winter is a cold toilet seat.

Here are the next 25! I know, you are so excited you can't wait. No need to push, everyone can have a turn to read them. =0)

26. I didn’t know that people drank alcohol in high school. (See #23)
27. Some things I carry in the car at all times include a Frisbee, a towel, animal beanbags in a bucket, sidewalk chalk, and a first aid kit. (I would be fun to be stranded with).
28. I like to sleep with a pile of blankets on me. I like the weight of it all.
29. I don’t have a favorite season. I love them all as they get here.
30. I have never been drunk.
31. I have never taken a single drag of a cigarette.
32. I have never been tempted to do either 30 or 31.
33. I love REAL potato chips.
34. I am allergic to caffeine. It makes me so sick it isn’t even funny.
35. I love to run during training, but usually dread the run part of a triathlon. I don’t love to train on the bike but love the bike part of the race. (Kooky, I know.)
36. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism with minors in Studio Art, Biology, and English. Which is funny because I am now a physical therapist.
37. I have never, ever dyed my hair.
38. By my sophomore year of high school I was practicing gymnastics at least 25 hours a week at the gymnastics club that my parents sold their souls to in tuition. I didn’t appreciate all of that until recently. (See look, here I am ready to take my baby to practice.)
39. I was a high school diver and gymnast and I am here to tell you that diving is WAY scarier than gymnastics.
40. I love the word “undulate” especially as it related to swimming fly but maybe in other ways too. =0)
41. I was 4 feet 11 inches tall when I got my drivers license.
42. I grew 5 inches my senior year of high school.
43. I need at least 8 hours of sleep and I get it almost every single night. (I don’t do well after 9:30 pm.)
44. I am still a very, very picky eater but I have always been willing to eat peanut butter. Just ask my mama. (And yes, that really is me.)

45. I love to rock climb. Unfortunately Nebraska is a very flat state.
46. I had more sports equipment than my husband when we got married. He is still trying to catch up.
47. Guys that shave their legs, chest and arms… sexy. The less hair the better. (Faces may be the exception to that rule.)
48. I have overly sensitive ears. I wear earplugs when I use the vacuum or the blender.
49. I have done rescue breathing two times in my life. Once on a child who nearly drowned, and once on an adult who stopped breathing after a seizure. Both instances were at the pool I worked at in college. Both lived. The 4-year-old little girl actually ended up throwing up in my mouth. Gross, I know.
50. I only like movies with happy endings.
