Man this makes me MISS YOU SO MUCH! You're so fun! I have one more to add . . .
#101-I played Barbies all hours of the night right up until I left on my mission.
I am glad you played! Don't worry, it took me hours too.
I agree with #'s 2,4,8,31,77,92 and 95.
#18 Lobster is way too boingy, so you are not missing out. Do you like crab legs? Similar flavor but a lot better texture.
#62 I think that is called shop lifting(teasing).
#64 LOL Funny and akward!
Karen,
I had a lot of fun reading 100 things about you. To answer a few...#18 - I've tried lobster. I thought it was virtually tastless, so I would say you are not missing much...especially for the price you pay. #29 - Many of the Rite Aids here used to be Thrifty and they DO have the same ice cream--chocolate malted crunch! =) Amen to #10, #36, #50, #52, #54, #55, #71, #74, #84 and #94. (Ha, now you have to go back and look at what you wrote for each of those with all the extra time you have on your hands now that you aren't spending it on thinking them up!)
Hi Karen! I second Kami's crab legs recommendation! MMMMMM! So you like spicy food? Ever tried that Thai restaurant in AF on main st.? Deeeeeelish! Keeping with the topic of food, you've gotten me hooked on spinach smoothies. I've told my sisters about them and after their initial "Gross!" I described it to them and now I may be converting one of them too. (She's the health nut-personal trainer...my other 2 sisters couldn't quite get past the word spinach.) I love ya Karen. You are one great gal!!
That was so fun to read! You're so funny!
And yes- I tagged you!! :)
i love this post and getting to know you better. you have an amazing voice, you should sing more often. and, i went to a padres came once - i saw tony gwynn play. it was awesome! (i do LOVE baseball, but i am a braves fan - sorry:)
you are amazing! talk to you soon.
I loved reading more about you! I want to hear about the spinach smoothie.
Okay, to clarify #62... I laughed so hard after I read Kami's comment, and then I went back and read #62, it totally sounded like I walk out with the stuff in the cart! Which would really be pathetic! hee hee! I leave the cart in the store with all the merchandise! #102-I have never stolen anything in my life! : ) :D ; )
alright babe, if we ever find a Thrifty's we have to go together because i love chocolate malted crunch too, we have mario cart so you have to come play and my dave paints my toes too!
Ok--while I was reading this...the funniest song ever was playing!! I don't think I've ever heard a funnier song...it kept saying, "I'm just too white and nerdy, I'm just too white and nerdy." I literally cannot stop laughing!! It was fun to get to know you better...while I was laughing my end off! You're hilarious!!

It was fun to get to know more about you. I agree about the beach and Thrifty's ice cream. Oh, and we totally have to get together and have a Donny Osmond party. I have been totally obsessed with him since I was about 12. My mom took me to a concert he did in Orange County and I used to go to the tv tapings for the most recent Donny and Marie show all the time! I even recorded the show that they did in Oprah recently. Oh man, I'm glad to have found another Donny fan.
OK- I didn't read all of them but you are such a funny gal! The ones I read were hilarious! And about the store- I totally understood- I have days like that all the time! I second Ashlee- we love us some spinach smoothies at our house too!
Karen... it was really fun reading about you. I thought I knew everthing about you being your oldest sister....but I learned a lot of new things.....like #62...(Funny because I have done the same thing!!) #73...Here's #102 I have a sister who is old enough to be my mother...she is 18 years older that me. She is old and she loves me!!!
Christine says...if you send me a carne asada burrito from Cafe Rio I'll send you chips from Tio Leo's Deal!!!
Fun to read about you! I, too have that genetic defect except I am missing 5 permanent teeth. That is practically a handicap! That's like five fingers. I'm like missing a whole hand. I just hope my kids have all their teeth. I also love Thrifty Ice cream. I remember when you could get three scoops on a cone for 30 cents!
That was so cool. Fun stuff, your too much fun, thanks for sharing!
How fun was that! Thanks for sharing all of your deepest secrets with us! Now, just hope we don't use some of them against you!
I am an American Idol freek (I have been to a couple of the American Idol On Tour concerts) and wish that I could still do the splits!
I think you need to post your recipe for spinach shakes because I'm not the only one who wants it.
ok I too also enjoy your blog your hilarious. And I don't know why you say you don't make friends, cause you have tons... I love ya. I agree with #62 and I have done that as well and also done that and walked out of the store. We had to go back in and return the stuff funny.. I blamed it on Braeley that is if she didn't make me lose my mind... I too need that recipe. I love that you are so cute with your blog and are still doing it even though your using a mac. Keep it up.
katie
what a blast!! karen that was awesome! You are such a fun person and I love knowing more about you!!! xoxo
Ok--I really want that spinach recipe...was it just spinach, orange juice and fruit? Bad Memory!
Please post!! hehehe
