24 Things About Lora!

1. I drink coffee with half-n-half. I like half coffee and half cream.
2. Snakes and rats don't bother me....
3. ... but spiders terrify me. 
4. I LOVE babies of all kinds. Last year, a cat stole newborn kittens from around the neighborhood and brought eight to my house. Now I know where the term cat burglar comes from.
5. My favorite song of all time is 'I'd Rather Go Blind' by Etta James. 
6. I'm addicted to action movies... 
7. ... but my favorite TV show is The Andy Griffith Show. Go figure!
8. I need reading glasses but have 20/20 for distance. 
9. My heritage is Native American, and I'm proud of that fact (Mother's side).
10. My heritage is Irish, and I'm proud of that fact (Father's side).
11. I bite my nails.
12. I love to take long baths and short showers.
13. I own a red Dodge Ram truck and a Toyota Corolla.
14. In the 80's I backpacked across Europe and visited 11 countries.
15. I walk about 20 miles a week but never run. I hate running. I hate aerobics. 
16. I love roller skating, long walks, bike riding, and weightlifting.
17. I've had the same cell phone for five years. 
18. When I was 8, I played the violin for about one month. I was so bad my mom made me practice outside. I climbed a tree to practice, and the neighbors called the police -- they thought someone was killing a cat.
19. Fall is my favorite season. 
20. If I could have any other job, it would be digging in Pompeii, Italy. I would even work for free! 
21. I'm terrified of heights, and I mean terrified. You won't see me rock climbing. Four stories is usually the limit before the knees start shaking. I even turned down a job because they were on the 21st floor. 
22. I prefer mountains over beaches.
23. I'm the worst singer in the world -- but don't care.
24. When I moved from Texas, I found out the BBQ sauce in Tennessee has lots of vinegar. And brisket isn't a staple. Imagine that!
