The low down Part deux

To continue the saga of  "All that is Ashley", I've wracked my brain to come up with "fun facts" if you will and the quirks that fill my every day life.

- Yoga, Zumba and the Nike Training App are my go-to's for enjoyable workouts.  

- I do NOT enjoy running.  Not jogging, not running, not long distance, not sprints.  No running. If you want to torture me, make me run.  And if you really want to twist the knife, make me run outside.
- I have a sweet tooth.  I can probably thank my dad for this one.  
- I mix my Laffy Taffy.  I stack banana with strawberry.  Every time.
- Caleb calls me the Time Queen.  9 times out of 10, I'll be able to guess the time within minutes of the actual time.  And this is hours after not looking at a clock.
- I tend to leave projects half completed.
- I do not perform well under pressure.
- I love when Caleb scratches my back and head.  Getting my hair washed at a salon is like heaven in a beauty chair.
- Vacations are my favorite.  Anywhere in the Caribbean is my first choice.
- Although I am not a fan of laying out in the sun.  I sweat like a pig and it's utterly miserable.  Laying out in the sun in one of these is MUCH better.
- Especially now with a baby, I can get ready in under 15 minutes, clothed, hair, make-up and all.
- I make it a goal to pack only 1 bag when going on a trip...  And I succeed every time.
- I am a morning person.
- Andrew Belle is my favorite musical artist.
- I do not enjoy playing sports... of any kind.  I am perfectly content being a supportive spectator.
- I am a huge baby when it comes to cold water.  I grew up with grandparents whose pool water would be in the 80s.  Ohhhhh the good life.
- Crowds generally overwhelm me.
- I admittedly love reality tv shows. 
- My favorite TV show is still Friends.  You would definitely want me on your team if we played Friends trivia.
- I thoroughly enjoyed all of the Harry Potter books.
- I love Disney World and theme parks in general.
- I really enjoy writing (hence the blog).  I find I communicate best through writing.
- Speaking of writing, I used to write plays, movie scripts, and books when I was a kid.
- Speaking of being a kid, I would stay inside from recess to read books.  Introvert much?
- I've been on missions trips to Mexico, South Africa and Zambia.  I would love to go back to South Africa as it's one of the most beautiful places I've been.
- I was in the Miss Illinois Teen USA pageant my sophomore year in high school.
- I played Miss Hannigan in the musical Annie my senior year in high school. LOVED playing this role.
- I like sending and receiving cards.
- I'm terrible about keeping my phone charged.
- I would rather load the dishwasher with dirty dishes than unload the clean ones. Weird, I know.
- I don't like attention.
- Wearing my hair up and/or wearing headbands gives me headaches. Sad day. 

Perhaps you learned a little something!
