2. I've never not had a pet—the Bengtson Zoo currently consists of Rosco the golden retriever, Sabrina the umbrella cockatoo, Mr. Fritz the chinchilla, and Jake the snake. R.I.P. Buttons the adorable beagle/pointer/hound ♥, the two parakeets, the bunny, the four gerbils, Barney the dog, and however many gold fish we tried to keep alive.
3. I'm incredibly neat and organized and tend to stress out if there's messiness around me (with the strange exception of my bedroom at home—that's usually a "work in progress") :-)
4. I am a total klutz! I’ve broken my wrists 5 times (and once broke both at the same time)!
5. I have way too much in the clothes department but usually feel like I have nothing to wear.
6. I love listening to Christmas music all year long—always seems to put me in a good mood :-)
7. I love to bake, though I don't usually eat whatever I make—the product is most often delicious but I'm not a huge fan of the sweets, I just like to surprise friends with them. :-)
8. I made a peanut butter & jelly sandwich for the first time this past January—don't worry, I didn't eat it.
9. I love taking walks, running, or playing soccer & football in the rain—splashing around in puddles and playing in the mud never really gets old for me. :-)
10. I generally hate wearing shoes, jackets, scarves, hats, gloves, etc. but I somehow have an inordinate number of each.
11. I generally dislike violence but I can't help loving the fights that break out during hockey games.
12. I have a great grandmother who'll turn 109 this summer!
13. One of my biggest dreams came true a few years ago: seeing Barbra Streisand live in concert with my mama. :-)
14. I tend to be an obsessive collector of the things I really like: music by a certain artist, books by a certain author, etc.
15. Music is constantly running through my head and I'm always putting together soundtracks for various occasions, people, and seasons of life.
