A post about why I'm a dork

So I was reading my sister in laws blog and she has a post about being a dork and not being ashamed of those dorky things....

Since I enjoyed reading her post so much here is my list of things may make me a HUGE dork, but I don't really care what anyone thinks because I am who I am and even love the dorky side of myself. ;-)

I'm Ashleigh and;

I love love love to read.

I love to have a night all by myself.

I like my animals more than most people.

I love vampires, whether that is the twilight books, watching vampire diaries(soo good!), true blood. I'm not sure why that is, yes SUPER dorky! If they were real I would date one :)

I have never been to a casino, and don't really have any desire to go.

I like to wear dresses and sometimes think I was born in the wrong era. I think I would have done well back in pioneer days.

I am fascinated by Amish people. Sometimes I wish I was Amish, it just seems so much more simple and just plain(no pun intended) cool!

Sometimes I'm probably to much of a "good dutch girl" as I use almost everything til there is one drop left or less of something, examples would be shampoo, toothpaste, cleaning products.

I know that I don't like beer, but yet I always try it hoping that it might change.

I love getting a good deal, even if I don't necessarily need something I will buy it because it's such a good deal!

I am not ashamed to admit that I buy clothes at Meijer, Walmart, Target, Salvation Army and Goodwill(good deals at those last two!!).

I love eating ice cream! And could easily eat it every night.

I love cheese.

I really like to cook and bake but rarely do because I hate leftovers.

I would much rather stay at home and read then go out to a bar or even to a movie.

I've never been to Mackinaw Island and I've lived in Michigan my whole life.

I've never smoked anything.

I love my Chacos (sandals) and wish I could wear them the whole year.

I love warm weather, sun, and sand! I wish I lived near a beach.

I love my iphone and will probably always have one. My iphone is the one piece of technology that I don't absolutely despise.

I really love getting my hair hi-lighted, it makes me feel so much better about myself when its done nicely and looks good. Really dorky that makes me feel better...

I hate going to walmart because they have 50 lanes and there are only ever 2 open. Seriously?? How does that make any sense???? UGH!!! Can you tell that I was there recently? For one thing mind you and I didnt get it because I couldnt stand that I was waiting for 5 minutes and it would have been more like 15-20.

I like to take self portraits of myself :-) alot of those occur while driving.

Well I know that there are alot more and maybe as I think of them I'll add them. So stay tuned.

And I love jeep wranglers! Probably way more than I should, I said earlier that I wouldn't want to go to a casino but this weekend at a casino nearby one could win a jeep and I would go for that reason alone! I think that they are the best car in the world! Yep I'm a weirdo:)

Almost there..

So in just 3 short days we'll be hosting a celebration of Jared and I's marriage.

Hooray for a tasty pig roast and more importantly a mashed potato bar! And the cupcakes which I am also excited about it!

I got all my fun pictures in the mail and am looking forward to having those out! I still have quite a bit to do in the next 2 days, including getting plates siliverware and all that jazz. Getting some frames and picture holders. And just the last minute things that come with having a party. But I am really excited to see so many people! :-D

I always have really great ideas of what I want to write on here and when I finally sit down, I can never remember.

Currently: I am still reading Harry Potter book 2. It's as thought I cannot get through it!

I am at work right now but its my Friday!!

I ran 3.6 miles on Sunday and my mom, twins and myself are all signed up for the color run 5k, on August 5th. I am actually really looking forward to it! Mainly for the color aspect of it, they throw different colors at the runners at each K. So its going to be fun! And while on Facebook earlier I saw that Binder Park Zoo has a 5k on June 23rd...hmmm maybe I'll venture out and do that and then I get a pass for the zoo for the day and of course a t-shirt which pretty much makes it worth it to me. Yep, I'm a dork.

On Saturday I have only 3 weeks left until Panama!!! AHH!!! SO excited!! :-) But I still have alot to do!

I'm hoping that tomorrow we will make pizzas for dinner, we bought everything on Sunday and right now it sounds so delightful.

Well I suppose I should wait 20 minutes and begin my trek home!
