My 7 Things

Saw this idea on a blog I read and thought it would be fun to play along.

7 Things I Can Do:

  • I can read really fast, and pretty much retain what I read.
  • I can handcuff someone in five seconds. Okay I was a cop about 10 million years ago and since I don't have need to handcuff anyone nowadays I probably am a little rusty with that skill.
  • I can crochet and I wish I had more free time to do it.
  • I can make really good meatballs and BBQ sauce from scratch.
  • I can take pretty good pictures (not evidenced by some of the ones posted here, but I used to take pictures as a hobby.)
  • I can read people pretty well. (It made being a cop easier.)
  • I can match colors. I have an eye for noticing the different shades of color I think.

7 Things I Cannot Do:

  • I absolutely can not drive a stick. Three people have tried to teach me.
  • I cannot sing.
  • I cannot watch gory movies. I hate them.
  • I can't go to sleep if I need to shave my legs. I don't like my legs touching each other if they are prickly. Yes I am a freak.
  • I can't just let things go. I have to analyze and re-analyze a situation to death.
  • I can't go a full day without checking my email.
  • I cannot make myself take my girls to the mall to sit on a stranger's lap and ask for gifts. It goes against my moral fiber or something. Or I'm just a grinch. (I was never big on Santa as a child.)

7 Random Things About Me:

  • I am a total germaphobe. I hate being around sick people.
  • I have a Bachelor's Degree and would like to get my Master's in Psychology when our kids are all in school.
  • I have two piercings in each ear, but now I can't wear earrings as they bother my ears.
  • I get a headache every time I wear makeup.
  • Hypocrites make my blood boil.
  • I'm a conservative.
  • I believe in God, but every time I see a horrible story about a hurt child I question my faith.

7 Foods I Love:

  • Thanksgiving dinner
  • chocolate
  • lemon pie
  • dewberry cobbler
  • guacamole
  • fajitas
  • fried oysters

That was fun, but it took longer than I thought. Whew!
