102 Things about Jennelou

BIG FAT EDIT. See #20. = )


So, this was meant to do this for my 100th post, but blogger was not cooperating. So, since this is post 102, I give you 102 things about Jennelou.

Please note: these are in no particular order, because I wrote them as I thought of them....deal with it.


1. I am named after my father’s grandmothers. IF I ever have children, they will probably be named after someone. Oh, and my first name is Jennifer, but my middle name is not Lou, Louise, or any variations. My former boss used to call me Jenny Lou.
2. I was born on April 28, 1978.
3. I have one younger sister.
4. My favorite color is RED.
5. When I was a kid it was green, and I always saved the green M&Ms for last.
6. I hate belts….I couldn’t tell you the last time I wore one.
7. I am 5’11. I seem to be taller than most people. Which is good in crowds because I am kind of claustrophobic.
8. I was never a NKOTB fan. All my friends loved them…I thought they sucked.
9. When I was a kid my favorites were George Strait and Reba McEntire. I still love them both.
10. I like music other than country now too. Seeing the Rolling Stones in Concert was awesome. Ditto for David Bowie.
11. I have two associates degrees and am working on my bachelors degree.
12. School is definitely not my thing. I can’t wait for it to be over.
13. I was an Accounting major, until I realized I kind of hate Accounting.
14. Someday I want to have a chocolate lab named James Brown.
15. Not because I am a huge James Brown fan. I’m not.
16. And a black lab. Name to be determined. Maybe Anastasia Beaverhausen. Heh.
17. I am not freaking out about the fact that I will most likely be unmarried by the time I am 30. I sometimes worry that that is weird.
18. I always hoped to have kids before I was 30. Now I don’t know if I will ever have them. Not sure if it is my thing.
19. I love it when a guy’s neck smells good.
20. I also have a thing for a man in uniform. Especially when they wear Stetson hats, not those dumb ass bus-driver looking things. It can do a lot for a guys looks. Same thing with a suit and tie. Or a tux.
EDIT: OK. Apparently I stand corrected. Not all non-Stetson variety hats are bad. Fire dude hats are fine. (With some exceptions, I am sure....like if dude has a lot of chins.) = >
21. I have dated a few “men in uniform”. Not all it’s cracked up to be. Guess I just picked bad ones.
22. My first car was a 1986 Chevy Celebrity, nicknamed Celeste. That was a great car, but then when it got old and I “upgraded” to a 1996 Pontiac Grand Am, I was in heaven. I swear it was like driving a Cadillac. Then I drove my boss’s Cadillac, and realized there was no comparison. I still loved that car though.
23. I HATE Mini Coopers. Hate. Them.
24. I rarely drink beer. Don’t like it, and it makes me sick to my stomach.
25. I prefer Smirnoff Ice. Or Chocolate Martinis.
26. I know next to nothing about the mechanics of a car. But I can usually tell you what a car IS. Especially with American cars. My Dad does this with old cars, often down to the YEAR, which is kind of cool.
27. I HATE HATE HATE the words “décolletage” and “décolleté”. When I hear those words, usually on some dumbass infomercial, I want to scream. I don’t know why that is.
28. I also hate it when magazines can’t just say Hair. They say “tresses”, “locks”, “mane”, etc, Why can’t they just say HAIR?
29. When I really like a song, I have been known to play it over and over and over. If I am by myself, I wouldn’t expose this insanity to anyone else. = )
30. I am pretty much addicted to youtube. And myspace.
31. I watched Wayne’s World about 30 times one summer. 993, I think it was. Rainy summer, no cable, babysitting a bored kid who liked to get into trouble. So we watched Wayne’s World.
32. We used to sing “Bohemian Rhapsody” loudly in his mom’s car. One day she had to tell us to stop she was laughing so hard.
33. My favorite shows are Boston Legal and CSI NY. I also like the Sopranos, but they take so damn long to start a new season that I am usually lost when it finally comes back on.
34. I love the movie Ladder 49. Kills me every damn time.
35. When I was younger, one of my favorite movies was “Fine Things”, from the Danielle Steel book of the same name. Cheesy I know, but I loved that movie.
36. When I was a kid I loved Ann Murray. I listened to her records every night when I went to bed.
37. I don’t really like blonde men. And I don’t like curly hair on men.
38. But there is one guy who has light colored hair. This does not apply to him. Besides, his hair might be light brown. Haven’t seen him lately.
39. I don’t really have a lot of shoes. I do have a lot of purses and watches.
40. I love to read, but don’t much anymore, At least not as much as I would like. I am sick of waiting for the 7th Harry Potter book.
41. I have never seen any of the Star Wars movies and have no desire to.
42. Same goes for Lord of The Rings.
43. I am very picky. I do not like most vegetables.
44. I do not like tomatoes, but I do like ketchup, tomato soup, salsa, V8, etc. etc.
45. I would never survive as a vegetarian.
46. I am not too interested in overseas travel, but I would like to see most of the United States.
47. One exception is Italy. I think it would be awesome to go there.
48. I would like to learn to speak Italian, even if I never go to Italy.
49. I never went to the prom. I do not regret that.
50. I hated high school. It amuses me that some of the bitchiest girls are now losers.
51. I have never seen Gone With The Wind or Casablanca. WTF?
52. I hate it when people give their kids really stupid names. I don’t want to offend anyone so I won’t name specifics. I also think that people need to think about how the kid’s WHOLE name sounds, and whether or not name will grow well with their kid.
53. I am really sick of all this “Princess” nonsense. I worked at Wal Mart last year (the HORROR) and I was surrounded by it. This also goes for grown women calling themselves princess.
54. I have lived in a one-hour radius my whole life. Lived with my parents for 21+ years, moved about 10 miles away and stayed there for 5 ½ years, and then moved to my current location an hour away from my parents last July.
55. I do not really want to move back to where I used to live, but it is OK to visit.
56. I never drank coffee until I was 25.
57. I still don’t drink it everyday.
58. It is unhealthy how much I love sour cream.
59. I procrastinate and I hate that. Maybe I will work on that….tomorrow.
60. I hate a lot of Reality TV.
61. I love the first few weeks of a new season of American Idol.
62. I miss new episodes of Alf. And Beavis and Butthead.
63. I wish I could play the steel guitar. Or the piano. Or any guitar.
64. I never wanted to be in band in high school. I hated the shit they had to play.
65. I am in trouble if I ever have kids and they are in chorus. I hate those “presentations” or whatever the heck they call them.
66. I hate running. HATE. IT.
67. I can’t skate or rollerblade. I have tried.
68. I love to look at houses. Since I moved here fairly recently, there are many neighborhoods I haven’t explored yet.
69. I am more of an indoor girl than an outdoor girl.
70. I love a good nap.
71. I have only been hospitalized once, when I was 5, for asthma.
72. I had braces for 5 years, and going to the dentist all the time never bothered me TOO much.
73. Now? I hate it. I don’t know what happened. I really need to go, but I have some weird aversion to it.
74. Bad spelling irks the shit out of me. Seriously. And don’t get me started on that Ur nonsense. Is it really so hard to add the y and the o? aNd I hAtE iT wHeN pEoPlE tHiNk tYpInG lIKe tHiS iS cOoL. There, I am twitching now.
75. I have no tattoos….and no plans to get any.
76. I do like nose piercings, but will probably never get one….that whole looking professional thing.
77. I currently drive a 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix. That will be changing in the next few weeks.
78. I wish I knew more about computers. How they work and things like HTML, etc. I think that is why I am on myspace so damn much changing my profile, I love to try and figure out how the codes work.
79. I want a laptop, but have NO clue what to get.
80. That said, I am not a total dumbass when it comes to computers.
81. Hate poetry.
82. Don’t like people going through my stuff. I don’t think I could deal with a roommate.
83. I hate that my tiny apartment is so damn cluttered, but at least it is cheap.
84. I have some OCD tendencies. Especially with locks. I will lock the door, walk away, and have to go back and check it. With my apartment and my car.
85. I almost always take my shoes off first thing at someone else’s house. And at my own, actually.
86. I have been pulled over multiple times for speeding and have never had a ticket. I have gotten much better about the lead foot, or am trying anyway.
87. I love Charles M. Schulz and Peanuts. And Calvin and Hobbes.
88. I play Tetris on my cellphone all the damn time. I miss Super Mario Brothers. I think my mom still has our old-school Nintendo, but I am afraid to get it because I know I would waste too much time with it. I still have my Original Game Boy but don’t take it out for the same reason.
89. I don’t really have any interest in any of the new video game systems.
90. I really really want TIVO.
91. I don’t even have cable, but I am thinking of getting it because I am paying for a landline phone I never use because I have internet through the phone company. Makes more sense to pay for cable and internet than a phone I never use.
92. My first job (besides babysitting) was at a Pizza Place. Then I worked at a pharmacy, a grocery store, a hotel, the DMV (aka Satan’s asshole), back to the hotel, another pharmacy, Wal Mart, and just recently, another hotel.
93. The best job was the first hotel I worked at…I stayed there for 7 years, and only left to come back to school. Although I am not crazy about school, it was time for me to leave that job. I am still friends with most of the people I worked with there.
94. A lot of things piss me off (duh) but I usually don’t vent my frustrations out loud to the fucknuts I seem to encounter every damn time I go to the store. This almost changed at the grocery store last week. I was ready to kick some middle-aged bitch ASS. It was almost ON. Her conversation with her equally dumbass friend was more important than…I don’t know….moving her giant ass so other people could get by.
95. Yeah, I sometimes think I should be a hermit too.
96. I love Christmas, but I think they start the Christmas music too damn early. So, I don’t listen to the radio much in December…don’t want to be sick of the music by Christmas time.
97. I think Barbra Streisand should STFU, both musically and about politics.
98. I can not stand it when people say “Addy” or “Puter”. How hard is it to write the extra letters?
99. I also hate it when people write the date as 11/30/6. It is 06, thank you very much.
100. I love peppermint stick ice cream. I have recently discovered Edy's Slow Churned......1/2 the fat and it actually tastes GOOOOD!
101. This guy I had a HUGE crush on in high school, asked me recently if I knew that he had a crush on ME in high school. I think he is hotter now than he was then.
102. I don’t know who is more crazy….me for writing this, or you for reading the whole damn thing!
