Thursday Thirteen #1

Ooh, My first Thursday Thirteen! I'm so excited! And since it's my first one, I thought I would tell you more about myself.

Thirteen Things about me you won't find in my profile... 1. This had to be number 1... I hate celery!!! Can't stand it in anything you can think of that would contain it. Yuck! Just thinking about it, kind of makes me feel icky. 2. I love Ranger! If you ever read any of the Stephanie Plum novels by Janet Evanovich you know who I'm talking about. Well, for the longest time I couldn't make up my mind. Morelli or Ranger? But for some reason over the years I fell in love with Ranger. Now every time I pick up a new Plum novel... I scream at Stephanie... Pick Ranger!!! 3. I'm a member of PETA, but I can eat a cow with the best of them. :) I hope nobody gets upset with me about this comment. 4. I have the worst memory. Worst. I forget people's names almost instantaneously, and I forget their faces just as quickly. Oops, my bad. But what can I do? 5. I have an absolutely sinful weakness for the caramel and chocolate covered pretzels at Starbucks. Mmm... just thinking about it makes me want to go out and get one. (Or two, or three - you know... for later.) 6. I CAN'T STAND IT WHEN PEOPLE TYPE IN CAPS LOCKS!!! IT DRIVES ME NUTS! 7. I hate cliff hanger endings in movies and in books. Why? I ask you. If there's going to be a part two, if I liked part one I'll probably read/see it. I don't need to be plagued for a year(s) because that's how long it takes for the next one to come out. 8. One of my best friends has up and left me to move to South Korea for over a year. Jerk! I miss you! And you better come back with some wicked-ass stories that I can write in a book and get published. No pressure! 9. I love Police Officers! Maybe not always in real life - but always in a romance novel. If it has a cop, I'll read it. You probably already new that about me, but I don't think I stressed the fact enough in my previous blog. My husband thinks it's about the power they have over normal civilians. Nope! He's wrong, I'm female. I don't care how much power they hold over someone. I just love how a heroine can make any huge alpha male cop - who doesn't put up with any bull**it from anyone - fall to his knees and fall in love with her. Yay for Heroines! 10. I say dude way too much. 11. Umm... I think every blog I write has the word Yay in it. If it doesn't it's because I removed it after catching it. So clearly, I say Yay way too much. I'm working on it, but to be honest I didn't even realize this was a problem until I started writing blogs. 12. Without coffee I am only a shell of a human. I not only get cranky, but my brain is foggy, and I can't think straight. My sentences are barely strung together, and sometimes I'm saying something but can't remember the word to use. It could be as simple as "I got out of... umm. what is that thing that you sleep on again?" I know you all think I'm joking, but it really is that scary. Good thing there's a Tim Horton's on every corner! :) 13. Ooh, I feel bad about writing this one... but it's the truth, so here goes... I have a dog and a cat. I love them both, but I love my dog a smidgen more. Does that make me a bad person? I hope not, and I hope my cat doesn't learn how to read because she has some mighty sharp claws. :) Links to other Thursday Thirteens!
