The truth about Alayna

Hi! My name is Alayna. And I am kind of weird.

This is me and my big face (don't worry, I got my eyebrows waxed the day after taking this picture). And this post is dedicated to little known facts about me. After reading this you will see that I am a little strange, a little OCD and perhaps a little duplicitous (look it up and love it). Believe me, I didn't know what that word meant until a few days ago either...

Here we go:

* My belly button and I are at war. As of this moment, my belly button is winning...

* I have a little crush on Cleto from the Jimmy Kimmel show. He's dreamy...

* I make up interpretive dances while I drive...

* I am very particular about my writing utensils. I HATE pencils and I hate super skinny pens almost as much! For example, the pens in the picture below do not look that different, but the red pen seriously makes me sick! It bothers me to use/hold pens like that. So I make my office manager buy special pens just for me. Yep, I told you I was weird...* Speaking of weird/OCD things, I have to make sure the light switches in my house are going the same direction. Meaning the top of the switch is pushed in when the light is on and the bottom of the switch is pushed in when the light is off. If you push the bottom of a light switch in to turn on the light, that's just not normal...right??

* My ear lobes suffer from perma sag...

* I am trying to master the art of eye sparkling. My friend Daja is really good at it and she captivates all the men. I wanna do the same...

* Speaking of captivating men, the picture below made me giggle. I won't go into the details but will just leave it to your imagination...* I am going to Boston in October! I have never been there and/or really had a desire to go there, but now that a plan is in the works I cannot stop thinking about it! Since I am going to Boston it means I am cancelling my trip to Nauvoo for the Halloween Pumpkin Walk. I am kind of sad, but things just weren't working out like I had hoped. Besides, I have some really good friends getting married around that time and would regret missing their reception. I still plan to go to Nauvoo, but it will probably be next year...

* I have skewed priorities. I can't seem to get off of Facebook at night, which cuts into my scripture reading/sleeping time. I have been really tired lately, which means I have been really cranky too. Somebody make me stop!

* Speaking of crankiness, I know Jesus says that we should love everyone, but sometimes I just can't...

* I have hoarding tendencies. Or maybe I just have a ton of useless crap. I hate to throw it away because I feel like I could get money for it, but since I lack the desire to have a garage sale and/or put the stuff up on Ebay, I will most likely just donate it to the DI. Now if only I could find a desire to go through it...

* I desperately want a man to sing me the Backstreet Boys' song "This Is Us." I think it will help a lot. After all, you can't find the right one until you let go of the wrong one...

And finally:

* I got a pedicure today. I am in love...
