I swear, I think that being officeless is worse than being on a serious deadline. I am bored to tears AND antsy about all of the work I haven't been able to do. In order to keep myself from stressing out, I have decided to make a list - 50 Things About Molly... I've seen it on other blogs, and it's kind of interesting. Let's see if I can get to 50.
1. I am left handed - I eat and write with my left hand...but throw with my right.
2. I have green eyes that can sometimes look blue in the sunlight and with the right color shirt on.
3. I am a dog person - cats are ok, but I adore the canines.
4. I don't like bananas, grapes, canteloupe, watermelon, honeydew, or kiwi.
5. I do like liver & onions, spinach, cooked carrots, rutabegas (sp?) and can eat bbq for breakfast.
6. I was a big baby - 9 lbs, 15 oz's at birth
7. I wrote plays in the 2nd grade and cast kids from my class to be in them. I would even bring them costumes to wear and rewrite all the copies of the script.
8. I am horribly scared of alligators - I have nightmares about them.
9. I am very self conscious about my body - especially my love handles.
10. I am named after a friend of my mother's in college - a ZTA friend at UGA
11. I have always found English classes easy...and math classes impossible.
12. I don't love poetry - except for limericks. Love limericks.
13. I love to read - mostly fiction although a good biography can suck me in, too.
14. I think that listening to Braves games on the radio is really fun and it makes me feel happy.
15. I adore the smell of fresh cut grass - it reminds me of summertime and of football games on Friday nights.
16. I could eat an entire jar of dill pickles in one sitting.
17. I own close to 50 pairs of shoes.
18. My Seven jeans that I bought in LA are one of my favorite possessions.
19. I have never been out of the country besides going to the Bahamas.
20. I was a gymnast for 8 years, but I was always scared of the parallel bars.
21. I won a writing fair in 4th grade for a poem I wrote about school. I won again in the 9th grade for a story I wrote from the point of view of a soldier in Desert Storm.
22. I won 3rd place in an On the Spot writing contest at a Journalism Convention held at UGA when I was in 12th grade.

25. I have been late on my car payment.\r\n26. I have bounced a check.

28. I have called in sick when I was not really sick.

35. I have had my heart broken - at least twice.
36. I have broken someone's heart.
37. I got an award in 5th grade for not missing a single day of school - that same year, I also got an award for the highest academic average in my grade. Going to school DOES help you to do better. ha
38. I have called someone by the wrong name - recently - and it was a family member.
39. I wanted to be a grocery store clerk when I was a little girl.

50. I am much too sensitive and can dish out a lot more than I can take.
