In response to being tagged by Carrie via Shannon, I now tag Shane (and Molly).
1. I never set the alarm on my alarm clock to a standard interval. For example, I am far more likely to set the alarm to 8:02am then I am 8:00am. Currently, my alarm is set to 5:26am.
2. Since entering high school, the only type of casual shoes I have ever owned are Adidas Samba Classics. I have never purchased a pair of running shoes for casual wear.
4. Math has always come relatively easy to me. I feel like I simplify it (usually to 10s, 100s, etc.) so it's possible to do it in my head quickly. However, many people don't get my method (including Gina). I will give you a couple of examples. When adding 89+38, I will subtract 89 from 100 to get 11 and then subtract 11 from 38 to get 127. When multiplying 22x13, I will multiply 22x10 to get 220 and then add 66 (22x3) to get 286.
5. Before I fall asleep (I sleep on my right side), I always place the bottom left corner of my pillow above my shoulder.
6. Even though I enjoy being left handed, I hope that my children are not. While I like being different, it's more hassle then it is fun. The only exception to this would be if the girls want to play softball. I will likely try to steer them towards batting left handed if possible. It's such an advantage.
7. I am a crust guy (especially on pizza). In fact, the only times I notice myself eating the middle last are peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and (good) brownies/cookies.
8. I love wearing hats, though I am constantly annoyed by them. It's a vicious cycle, let me tell you.
9. At one point years ago, I was planning to donate Nugget to the Minnesota Zoo. However, their exhibit at the time only included Southeast Asian tortoises, not Mediterranean. They would have taken her but she would have never been on display. Nugget is a Horsfield's tortoise (also know as a Russian tortoise or Central Asian tortoise).
10. I can't tell you how much I love it when Natalie looks at someone else, points to me and says "that's my daddy."

3. I definitely have a specific order that I keep bills in my wallet (in the rare instance I have money in there).
