Tell me more, tell me more!

I linking up with Amy Lemmons from Step into Second Grade for her Tell Me More Linky Party.

So here goes...all of the random facts about me that you wish you knew. LOL-now you will know them whether you wanted to or not.

1.)  I have a crippling fear of cats. I mean any cats- from the cute as a button kitten to the nastiest stray cat around. I figure this probably dates back to when our neighbors cat jumped into my crib and had at me while I was a baby.  But, it is actually entertaining to those who know me. I am sad to say that I am passing that fear down to my son.
2.)  When I was about 8 years old, I stuck a pair of tweezers into an electrical outlet in our home on a dare.  Needless to say I do not take dares anymore. Seeing the wall light up bright orange, and being thrown backwards definitely put a stop to that. The hubby seems to think that is to blame for a lot of my decisions! HAHA!
3.) I've always wanted to be a teacher. My mom was a teacher, and I can remember playing with her teacher's edition books when I was in Kindergarten. If only I knew that real teaching doesn't come from a textbook-that I've learned from experience.
4.) I am St. Joseph's University Hawk- anyone familiar with the school?  I am number 16 in my family to graduate from their and my dad's cousin was the 1st female graduate.
5.) Although from the same Philadelphia neighborhood, I met my husband at the Jersey shore- he is 10 years older than me, so it wasn't until I was old enough to go to the bars that we met.
6.) I have 17 neices and nephews- that makes for a TON of Christmas gifts.
7.) The name I was given when I was born was Anastacia- although I've never gone by it. My family has always called me Stacy- but Anastacia was a saint's name and since we are Catholic that was a must!

That's enough random facts about me. Anyone out there have anything in common with me?  Let me know if you linked up, I'd love to learn more about each of you.

Can't wait until my Friday Freebie post with TBA tomorrow. It has to do with life lessons learned from a little dog named Coconut! I'm really excited about it!!!!
