More tidbits about me

After making this post recently I thought of all sorts of other facts I could have posted. I love reading interesting trivia about others so hopefully the rest of you have that curiosity as well. If not, well don't say I didn't warn you.

1. I hate vanilla scented items. Not vanilla itself but that fake scent that is everywhere these days. Perfumes, candles, etc. It all goes back to a roommate in college my sophomore year who showered often but didn't wash her clothes & sheets but once a month and re-wore well everything from the bottom up. She also wore vanilla perfume and lots of it. I started associating her other "smell" with vanilla and it went downhill from there. It got so bad my other roommate started spraying roommate #1's bed with febreeze while she was out. I now love febreeze.
2. I really am a geek. I try to hide that fact but all signs point to yes. Not only am I computer programmer (or at least I was) I also enjoy sci-fi tv shows and movies. I've watched the entire series of X-Files, Stargate SG-1, and Star Trek TNG, DS-9, and Voyager. I think I've seen most of Enterprise as well. However, I do absolutely hate the original Star Trek series so please don't make me watch it.
3. I've read the Harry Potter series probably at least 10 times. When the books were coming out I would re-read the preceding books before the new one came out so I could start the new one where the old left off. This means I've read the older ones more than 10 times but the newest only 3. In my previous post I said I re-read books and I probably re-read these more than any others. I especially enjoy looking for the foreshadowing Rowling puts in, now that I know the whole story. Whenever I come across that I feel like I have an "A ha" moment. (I hope foreshadowing is the right term. I really didn't like English or Literature in school.)
4. I bruise like a peach. My legs in particular. Sometimes I'll hurt myself and know it'll leave a mark and other times I wake up with a new bruise and wonder where in the world it came from. I secretly think Graham beats me at night.
5. Graham and I both talk in our sleep. We get great enjoyment out of the awake one talking with the sleeping one and sometimes the conversations are quite hilarious. I wonder if we ever talk in our sleep to each other?
6. I enjoy cleaning and laundry. I don't just enjoy the effects of cleaning, I enjoy the process. To me there is nothing more satisfying that working your way through a dirty room seeing it get cleaner in the process. Since having Greta I don't get a chance to do this as often and I keep telling Graham I want a cleaning service. He tells me it wouldn't work because they wouldn't clean it the way I wanted it so I would just end up redoing it anyway.
7. If I ever have a mid-life crisis or time on my hands to do something, I'm gonna go back to school and become a pharmacist. I didn't take chemistry until I was too far into my CS degree to switch and not loose massive amounts of credits but had I known how much I love it, I would probably have majored in Pre-Pharm. I enjoy almost anything medically related but didn't want to be a nurse, PT, or OT (all careers I considered). I think a pharmacist would be the right fit for me. And if I did become a pharmacist I'd want to work at a hospital where they do more mixing of medicine and not just dispensing. When I volunteered at the hospital in Winder it was so cool to watch and help the guy who mixed IV bags and such.
