30:  Interesting Facts About Moi

(let's get the basics out of the way first)

1.  My favorite color is Green.  (But my least favorite color is Lime Green, go figure.)

2.  My favorite animal is the Fox.  And it has been my favorite animal since before the YouTube video.  They're basically like a cat and a dog mixed into a beautiful mysterious creature.

3.  Favorite Season:  Autumn because of the colors & being able to walk through crunchy leaves.

5.  I have 2 siblings, both sisters, both many years older than I. (7&8 years older to be exact.)

6.  I have a fairly large family.  To be precise, I have 32 cousins, 20 on my mom's side & 12 on my dad's.  (There are also a fair amount of 'little cousins' or 1st cousins once removed.  That # would be 17 in all.)  ((I find family history type stuff interesting, I even have a digital family tree I'm working on.))

9.  One of my favorite board games is a game called Blizzard of '77.  It's based on the actual blizzard from 1977 in NY.  The object of the game is to collect supplies before/during the blizzard.  Always one of the games I would play at my Grandma's.

16.  The Christmas movie I must always watch is A Year Without A Santa Claus. "I'm Mr. Green Christmas, I'm Mr. Sun.  I'm Mr. Heat Blister.  I'm Mr. 101.  They call me Heat Miser, whatever I touch starts to melt in my clutch.  I'm too much." Ba dum bum bum baaaa dum...

17.  If I know the song, you will be hard pressed to find me NOT singing along with it, especially in the car.
