"Oh the Cleverness of Me!"

So there is this fun thing going around on "the nets" to steal a term from Enders Game, of listing 101 things about yourself. I thought I would give it a try as I have learned a lot of really interesting things about people I know. So hopefully all of you out there can learn a little more about what makes me, me.

1. My real actual name is Tann Michelle Romriell Smith, but you can call me Tannie.
2. I love to read. I mean LOVE to read. I would rather read than eat food.
3. I have never left the country until this year when I went to Mexico.
4. Now I want to leave the country all the time.
5. I never wanted to be a mother. I would say that I wanted to be one, but I didn't mean it. I just knew it was what you were supposed to say.
6. Now that I am a mother, I love it! I wouldn't trade it for anything.
7. Sometimes I really am as snotty as I look, but most the time I am not.
8. I have always been the friend and never the best friend. The only person who has ever considered me to be there best friend (and told me) also married me.
9. I think that Dan is as hot today as he was in high school. Even with the grey hair.
10. I am way smarter than I act most of the time.
11. I am also more mature than I act, but that is not as fun.
12. I think that I am a ton of fun!
13. I am a huge dork. I have proof of this by the fact that Dan introduced me to Dungeons and Dragons and I went as far as to create and draw this Kestal 'Sohna character. She was adopted and raised by Drizzt Do'Urden 90 years before his death. He wanted someone to pass on his legacy seeing as he is the only good dark elf. So now there is another. See HUGE DORK!
14. I am really happy that at least three people (Trent, Dan and Rachel) will truly appreciate number 13.
15. As a child I was rediculously obedient. To this day I feel guilty of doing anything in contrary to what I am told.
16. In high school I won state in Texas for a painting I did.
17. I have some professors who won't talk to me because I chose the "mom" route instead of a career. And one who is my hero for supporting me.

26. I still feel homesick for Albuquerque.
27. I still think that Professor Snape is a Friend.
