  1. I will guess the false statement is "I sleep with one eye open". If you do sleep with one eye open, how do you do that?!

    This is so cool, I'm gonna have to copy it and do it myself in a few days!

  5. My guess is #3 - 'I own 8 pairs of cowboy boots'

    What a cool idea!!

    ReplyDelete
  6. Wait, only ONE of those is false?? Ohmygoodness... you've even got ME tripped up. But then I do trip easily

    ReplyDelete
  7. I hope you don't swear in ANY language, but then I've heard a little slip up now and then... just a little. Maybe in pig latin.

    ReplyDelete
  8. I can't get over the fact that there is even a 10 percent chance that you don't use shampoo. You're killin me here. And, if you DO use shampoo, then it means you sleep with one eye open AND you curse in different languages. AND Patrick Dempsey. LOL

  9. OK Lexie! Which one is it? I know that it is hard for us girls to make up our minds but you have to give me just one answer....mmmK?

    You crack me up!

  11. Oh and I forgot!! The one thing that is not true is that you eat slow. That just seemed to "mormal" campaired to the rest!! My son sleeps with both eyes open, creepy!!

    ReplyDelete
  12. You eat incredibly fast??? :)

    ReplyDelete
  13. i guess the 8 pairs of cowboy boots...

    This is cute! I didn't even know you make jewelry... WAY Cool...

    Calling you this afternoon, btw. Unless the world caves in. Because I'm actually home. *SHOCK*

    ReplyDelete
  14. Yes, in fact, I do make jewelery. Beaded mostly but I do branch out occasionally and make some mixed media pieces.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I guess that you don't swear in foreign languages because I can't imagine you swearing at ALL. But the shampoo thing --really that one was almost was my guess.

    PS: You would not even BELIEVE my word verification: uafevtjvx What the H**l? (in some foreign language)

    ReplyDelete
  16. I guess it's "I sleep with one eye open." Is that possible??

    michelleharrod@hotmail.com

    ReplyDelete
  17. I'll guess the falst statement is
    #6 "I sing Opera"

    ReplyDelete
  18. Well, I want it to be Patrick Dempsey. But that's probably true. I'm guessing the cowboy boots. Because unless you're counting your kids' boots... I've never seen you in more than two pairs (and not at the same time!)

    ReplyDelete
  19. Ohhh the pressure –Yikes! Since gazing at your blog for a short time, my boys’ offered a random guess (but they agree, if I win I get to wear the earrings YEAA!)

    Here it goes: statement #9 is false: with a comment: “she’s an adult and she’s had WAY enough time to face her fears!”

    {okay – please don’t hold me accountable for their comment if it’s true– K, plz?)

    ReplyDelete
  20. Hey - I forgot to tell you that "jj" above are my guys: Jasn + Jefy (dusty.puddles)

    My thot was -eating slowly- but it could be true as a distractinator thing – you may forget what you’re doing! =)

  21. ps: any photos of such creativity?? i'd love to steal ... umm, I mean see your designs. =oP

    ReplyDelete
  22. Ok well I know for SURE it isn't one of them... so I have an edge here, right? But still, I'm having a hard time! When is the deadline?!?!1

    ReplyDelete
  23. Lexie, you sneaky little chickie you! Yes, I knew that you would know one of the things was true for sure but that still leaves nine.

    I will announce the winner on Sunday, so you still have time to leave me your answer.

    This is so much fun!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. My guess is your afraid of the dark.

  25. Ok, purely a guess but...the one that's false is that you wanted to be an actress when you grew up.

  26. I have to think that 'I sleep with one eye open' is false! There's no way I think that one could sleep like that! LOL

    ReplyDelete
  27. ***Googling "flying saucer bangs", suspecting that at one point I had them...***

    ReplyDelete
  28. Oh...how nice of you to link me! I'm sorry it's taken me so long to get over here and see your place.

    Congratulations on the 100th post!! That's a fun one indeed.

    I'm going to go with the Patrick Dempsey thing...because it's just kookie and you're a Grey's Anatomy fan. :)
