25 Things You Don't Know About Me...Til Now
July 31, 2011
1. I sleep with a light on in a hotel room when I'm by myself. I have a fear of shutting off the lights and someone sneaking out from the closet or under the bed once they're off. I know, I'm crazy!
2. I pick off everyone's plates at a dinner table usually before I eat my own food.
3. My jaw sounds like its about to crack in half when I chew.
4. I endured what I call torture twice for my psoriasis. It's called Geockerman and you are smothered in coal tar, wrapped in Saran wrap and left to die for 6 hrs, everyday for two and a half weeks. Once when I was six, once when I was 11. The time when I was 11 I was rushed to the emergency room almost every day from panic attacks.
5. Because of number 4, I have slight closyrophobia.
6. I unpack and repack my bag at every destination on tour, takes up too much of my time. I annoy myself with this ritual, but it drives me crazy when I'm not organized.
7. I solve my life's biggest problems while on stage singing. Multitasking at it's finest! I'm always right in the moment with the audience, but if I've had something that's been weighing on me I usually think of the solution in the middle of a song. Music frees my mind.
8. I can wear a watch on stage but not in the studio when I'm recording. It's confining to me for some reason.
9. My charm necklace I always wear, especially when I travel has on it... an evil eye, infinity circle that says "always", a key, a gothic letter E and letter L and a heart engraved with MC & JC
10. I make lists for everything...like this one!
11. I can't stand to be tickled, not because I'm extremely ticklish, but because it's simply annoying.
12. I can't stand talking on the phone. I'd much rather email or text.
13. I can't wait to turn 30.
14. I love taking vacations, even mini ones for just a night. It resets everything about me. I totally believe in work hard play hard...and I work hard, so the balance is a must.
15. I am the queen of researching a great restaurant in a new city. Everywhere I travel, I have to know where I'm going to eat & workout before I arrive.
16 What makes me happiest is a crisp fall evening with my husband, cooking dinner with a slight breeze from a cracked window blowing gently through the house, David gray playing, and a glass of red wine.
17. I take lotion with me to the pool to apply after i get out of the water. There's no worse feeling to me than dry, tight skin.
18. My favorite part of my husband is his hands. They are so manly and my hands feel very tiny in them. They feel very protective.
19. I cry a lot. Happy tears, sad tears, it's my way of getting things out.
20. I can practically quote Eddie's vows he wrote to me for our wedding. I'll never forget the power and venerability of his words.
21. I drink my coffee black
22. I'd rather have salt than sugar
23. My pet peeve is someone slyly trying to take a photo with their camera phone. Didn't your parents teach you manners??!!....just ask!
24. My first crush was Patrick Swazey
25. I keep the hankerchief that I used at our wedding in my wallet. It still has mascara on it. I don't want to wash it.
