Here are my 7 things that I hope you didn't know about me, but for you they will probably be confirmed. Enjoy my secrets.
- I have a fear of Balloons. Inner tubes are just as bad. I don't like eather of these around me. I get scared for those who choose to float down the raging river filled with lava rocks on inner tubes. If they pop wouldn't it hurt? I think there is a reason for the word inner in inner tube. I think my fear may have started when I was little. One day I was blowing up a big red balloon that I had blown up several times. I liked to see how much I could stretch it. Every time I filled it up it would get bigger. I ended up with very red cheeks that day after my balloon exploded. Once I was asked by my Cub Master to pick up 30 balloons for a Blue and Glod Banquet. I'm not about to tell a guy that I'm to scared to do something. So, I got tough and picked up the stupid balloons. I thought if I cracked the window next to me the wind would keep them away from me. R-R-RIGHT ! Big mistake. They all just swarmed around my head like, They k-n-e-w ! By the time I got home my hair was literally standing up from the static. I think the Cub Master knew my fear. Which brings me to # 2.
- I conduct a lot of electricty. This is another reason why I don't like balloons and have a hard time with computers. When I was little I liked to play telephone operator with tweezers and outlets. I blew a lot of brakers and have been shocked multiple times. My dad won't let me touch his computer unless I'm grounded.
- I really don't know that much about cars as I say I do. I don't even know how to change my oil. Most of the time I have been on the phone with a mechanic and I would unfortunately be one of those people that they portray in commercials. Making noises and whatnot. He would give me some car lingo and I still would be clueless, but I would be able to BS my way through a later conversation. Or at least I thought so? NOBODY TELL DOUG!
- I don't like to hold babies. I would rather look at them from afar. I didn't have a hard time with holding Caebri though. I don't like to push strollers either. The other day I needed to go to Dexton's school when I had Caebri. I had to put her in a stroller and when I started walking up the street I felt awkward and was hoping that nobody would see me. I didn't even walk behind the stroller. I walked along the side. I don't know what it is. . . . Hey Jules? Ya got some advice? So far we have a fear of air-filled-latex circles and holding young humans, oh, don't forget the inability to resist the urge to electrocute myself. Got noth'n? Nada? Maybe more will help.
- I've always wanted to dance Hip-Hop and possibly Break Dance. TRUE. I love music. When I see people dancing I have the hardest time not wanting to join them. Two of my favorite movies are Save the Last Dance I and II. When I was in 2nd grade during every recess I would sit and watch the older students take turns spinning on the cardboard boxes they brought from home. I thought it was cool the way they could get their bodies to move.
- I reall, really like the smell of Sharpies. One day I was in a workroom at the school drawing
something for a teacher. I caught myself sniffing the marker. It smelled so good. I closed my eyes and everything. When I opened my eyes there were 2 sixth graders standing behind me. They laughed. Every time we saw each other they would say, "Hey, Mrs. Regi!" and pretend to be sniffing a marker. Other smells I like: Tire Shops, Shoe Stores,Lumber Isles and Paint. Awe!
- I tend to unconsciously pick up actions or accents of people I'm around. If you laugh or stand a certain way I will probably do the same. The hardest thing for me is accents. If you have an accent and I have been around you for a minute or two I will pick it up. I can't control it. If english is a second language for you, I would talk as if it were the same for me.
Thanks Misty for tagging me. I'm really excited that Lindsay is blogging. I just found her. I would like to see Lindsay's 7. I tag her! Anyone second that?

Regina you're awesome! I LOVE the smell of the auto parts store and Loews. I think it's from going to the store with my Dad when I was little. Come on over some time I'll teach you how to change your oil. (we'll trade you can teach me how to do my hair :)
Janay
Regina,
I loved your seven things, I didn't know any of them about you. This is so fun to learn new things about each other.
Janay..I think we need to see a blog from you!! What are your seven things? I tag Janay
i second the lindsay and janay tag!!REG I didn't know any of your seven way to go:)
That was fun to read :)
The accent thing, I think comes from the Blair side. I know Dave does it too, and maybe Anna? I love the smell of gasoline, but not diesel!
In my neighborhood, a bunch of moms took a hip hop class together. It was fun to see them perform, they looked just like hiphopping teenagers.
So funny... I also fear balloons when they are being blown up. I HATE the smell of tire stores but LOVE the smell of new cars inside and new dolls. I enjoyed finding out new things about you! I hope Linds and Janay respond to the tag!
So my professional opinion is...you're probably just fine. If you want a more personalized (and private) consult, you'll have to call me. I have some ideas...but I try to keep my online therapizing to a minimum. ;)
