13 Things:

1. I hate donuts. I especially hate watching other people eat donuts.
2. I love the smell of bleach, clean towels, and swimming pools (which smell like bleach too).
3. I don't like when green things and orange things are next to each other.
4. My favorite color is green.
5. I am fascinated by office supplies and derive guilty pleasure from lurking in an office supply store for long periods of time. I hope no one notices.
6. I hate getting the cuffs of my shirt wet when I wash my hands.
7. I used to love to watch Punky Brewster and Oprah in the afternoon when I was in elementary school.
8. I don't mind doing laundry but I have a pathological aversion to doing dishes.
9. I know everything there is to know about everything. I like Junior Girl Scouts best because they still believe this.
10. I don't like hoppy beer but I love spaghettios.
11. I talk in my sleep. Sometimes I sing in my sleep.
12. I used to think Kate and Katherine were two separate names and that I was Extra Special because my parents gave me 4 names instead of the usual 3.
13. I like to name my pets after people I liked but don't keep in touch with anymore.

A response to 13 items by Kate’s mother:

Item 2 & 8. Combine your love of bleach and doing laundry to take care of your grey rug problem mention in the above post. Bleach and washing takes care of the grey.

Item 5. Guess gift card from Staples for your birthday is okay.

Item 11. If you like to talk and sing in your sleep, try doing it while awake. Hard to be in a bad mood while you’re singing.

Item 12. You must feel extra, extra special since you your have given yourself two more names, Kat and Cate

Item 13 No need for me to name my pets, my kids take care of that when they bring the animals home for me to take care of.

Mom:

I don't think that having a preference about what you're called is an accurate measure of inflated self-importance.
