Re: 20 randoms

  • 1) I have OCD. I was diagnosed a few years ago. 2) I am horribly addicted to soda. 3) I broke my ankle February 15, and I just got back to work a few weeks ago. Its still very messed up, and I don't know if I'll be able to wear heels again. 4) My dad had a massive hemorrhagic stroke in December, and I'm sad we won't be able to dance on my wedding day. 5) if I could have another career, I'd a detective. 6) I am a huge animal lover. 7) the Outer Banks in NC is my favorite place on Earth.. 8) I hate flying with all my heart. 9) People tell me I look young for my age, but I hate when my patients think I'm a kid and shouldn't be their nurse. 10) fall is my absolute favorite time of the year. I often will light a pumpkin candle and watch Hocus Pocus and pretend it's 55 degrees out, even if it's in July. 11) I only want one child, and I've never really had baby fever. I feel like I am way too young for that. 12) I am a HUGE Green Bay Packers fan. We try to go see a game at least once a year. 13) I feel like my FI is really the only person that could ever get me to marry them. 14) I watch RL Stine shows on the Hub when I'm off! 15) I am a very sarcastic person. 16) I drive way too fast, like 90-100 mph fast. I get bored very easily and driving is one of those times. 17) I can only sleep if it's pitch black and quiet. 18) I am the only person I know that hates iced tea. 19) I am an awful cook. 20) I will never raise my voice with someone and if I'm mad you wont know it.

    1.) I really love to organize things-- I alphabetize, arrange by color, put things in piles and categories. I have liked to do this since I was a toddler.

    2.) When I was 12, I was swarmed by yellow jackets. I had 80+ stings all over me. It was the first (and, knock on wood, only) time I've ever been stung, so I have no idea what only one sting feels like.

    3.) My siblings and I are spread out over 21 years. I am in the middle-- my sister is 5 years older and my brother is 16 years younger.

    4.) I didn't lose my last baby tooth until i was 16.

    5.) My mom had cancer while I was in college. I donated my hair to Locks for Love. I was proud to do it, but my head felt like it weighed a million pounds with all that hair.

    6.) I hate loud repetitive noises. But I sleep through my alarm almost every morning.

    7.) Episodic television on DVD is terribly addictiing for me. I will watch entire series, from start to finish, in the course of a few days (or weeks). 

    8.) I drink more Diet Coke than anyone I know. 

    9.) I hate to eat dinner while the kitchen is still dirty. I've developed some really interesting cleaning-while-cooking strategies.

    10.) I used to own every Edward Norton movie ever made. I've fallen behind in my collection the last few years, but I still adore him.

    11.) I produce a lot of laundry. I have no idea how. 

    12.) Once, I got a sunburn so bad I wound up in the emergency room. Yes, I'm that pale. 

    13.) FI is unlike anyone I've ever dated. I think that's why we work so well together.

    14.) I used to be an events coordinator. I've planned everything from small luncheons to 1,000 person galas. My mom refers to that job as my "training" for planning a wedding. That makes me nervous for her expectations.

    15.) I was in a sorority. And, I was so sororitastic, I was vice-president of my college's Panhellenic Council. I still wear my letters to the gym sometimes, and my gym bag has my letters on it.

    16.) My mother is one of the most amazing people I know. She is tough, compassionate, feisty and incredibly strong. We grew really close when she was sick, and she is one of my best friends. 

    17.) I love Law and Order. Preferably SVU. The theme song used to be my ringtone.

    18.) I left a job I really really loved for one I hoped I would love as much. It's been a learning process, but I think I'm getting there.

    19.) FI and I met at one of the events I planned. We have a poster from that event framed on our wall. It's fun to have a souvenir of the day we met.

    20.) I'm pretty convinced the crockpot is the greatest invention ever.

    ETA: I'm not sure how I changed font halfway through. Fixed that, and some spelling.

    2.  My parents have been married for 38 years.


    3. I HATE when people say my FI and I are too young to be getting married & that we are going to end up divorced by the time we are 30. FYI people: we are going to prove you wrong.

    13. I hate the D-word. Horrible word. Deployment. I am afraid of losing my FI.

    14. I have been craving chicken parmesan for over a month now.

    15. My FI birthday is Christmas Eve.

    17. The only music I listen to is country.

    18. I want my 2nd holes & my belly-button pierced but I am too scared of needles to get it done.

    19. I hate disappointing people. I would rather be yelled at then get told I disappointed someone.

    20. When I was a senior in high school, my bowling team won state. We were pretty good lol.

    13. I had a full ride scholarship for swimming, but after my Senior year I didnt go.

    15. The FI and I met at a FUNERAL! No kidding.
    16. My parents and his parents have never met, and I wouldnt be surprised if it were at the wedding (that is, if his mother actually comes).
    17. My favorite season is summer. I wanted a May/June wedding, but its too hot.

    I'm new round these parts, so this could be fun :)

    1. My life is parallelling a USA tv show- I went to law school, became an attorney, hated it, and became a mediator (who wears fabulous shoes).  It's not nearly as exciting as the show, but I love knowing I solve problems for a living instead of creating them.
    2. Last Christmas, completely by coincidence, FI and I got each other all gifts that start with K- he got me a Kindle and a Keurig, and I got him a kegerator.
    3. I love shows and books about outlaw motorcycle clubs, real and fake- right now I'm watching a show about ATF agents who infiltrated the Hell's Angels, and Sons of Anarchy is IMO one of the best shows on tv.
    4. FI and I have a cat, fish, and a cockatoo.  The cockatoo rules the house- he chases the cat regularly.
    5. Speaking of undercovers, for the few months I actually practiced law, I assisted on a few Federal criminal defense cases involving gang members, and I got to meet ATF agents who went undercover.  It was kinda awesome.
    6. I'm half Cuban, although no one believes me until I open my mouth and speak Spanish.
    7. I lost 45lbs three years ago and have kept it off ever since.
    8. I love framed photos- I have them all over the house, and I drive FI crazy because I keep adding to the collection.  We've only lived here together for a year and we're already running out of reasonable wall space.
    9. I have a serious shoe and clothing addiction, but I don't remember the last time I paid full price for any of it.
    10. My engagement ring is a three-stone style I always said I never wanted, but I absolutely love it and how it looks on my hand. Good thing FI did it all by himself :)
    11. We have a gun safe my best friend and I could both fit comfortably inside.  It took eight guys an hour to get it thirty feet inside the house.
    12. I have the worst kind of brown thumb- if it grows out of a pot, I will kill it inside of two weeks.
    13. I got fake nails once. I felt like I couldn't do anything with my hands for a week, so I tore them off and I haven't gotten them since and don't think I ever will again.  But my toenails are always painted.
    14. I've had tattoos on my feet for years.  My grandmother saw them for the first time about a year ago, and I convinced her that she'd seen them a million times and knew about them since day one so she wouldn't get mad at me. It worked.
    15. That same grandmother wants me to wear the veil my mother wore in her wedding to my father.  I refuse to because (1) mom and dad divorced and (2) it's hideous of a type of hideous that only existed circa 1982.
    16. Our wedding ceremony is going to be extremely traditional- a full Catholic mass and all.  Our first dance song? Swing Life Away by Rise Against.  The juxtaposition is perfectly us.
    17. When we first started dating, FI taught me how to shoot.  I went from being petrified of guns to being able to out shoot him and his two older brothers with everything from handguns to AR-15's. Much to his brothers' disappointment, I still refuse to go hunting with them.
    18. My best friend and I are going to take dance classes in the six months before the wedding (if not sooner) to get in shape.  Our classes of choice? Ballet, hip hop, and pole dancing.
    19. I haven't seen my natural hair color since I was 14.  I have, however, dyed my hair red, brown, orange, purple, green, blue, pink, blonde, and black.
    20. Show me a sad, neglected animal, and my heart breaks. This is how I ended up with my cat (my roommate found her at a shelter and fell in love even though she was mean as hell.  After a year, my roommate refused to take her, but she'd turned so sweet and loving I couldn't bear to send her back to the shelter, so I kept her) and the bird (his old owner got a dog, and he was so stressed he plucked himself bald.  I hate birds, so if he'd had all his feathers, chances are I wouldn't have given him a second look, but he looked so sad and cold all bald my heart melted for him).  I need to stay the hell away from shelters and the Petsmart adoption areas, or I'm liable to come home with a small army of needy critters.
  • Since I now actually have time to skim through these forums, I figure I'll join in with some of these things! ;)


    1) While I have been out of work for a more traditional job for several years, I have been pet sitting and occasionally writing to help with general expenses. My Dad is kind enough to let me live with him without asking for rent while I go to college full time.

    2) I am majoring in social work and plan on going on to graduate school for social work and law or political science.

    3) I have been published on a major gaming blog (and paid for it), though I usually get paid for writing fan fiction. Who would have thought that would ever happen?

    4) I would have never met my hubby to be if it weren't for a previous relationship. We met through WoW, and the previous relationship convinced me to move servers to be on the same server as him. We broke up, and I joined my now hubby to be's guild, and much to the dismay of several other girls, managed to win his affections (which really wasn't that hard. :P)

    5) I have a cat named Georgie.

    6) I adore vampires, but I absolutely loathe Young Adult fiction and most of the recent vampire books being written (no offense to anyone who does! I actually love the fact that it does get a lot of people who probably wouldn't read otherwise. :) ), with the exception of The Parasol Protectorate, but that is more steampunk than vampires.

    7) I am very vocal about youth rights, especially in regards to mental health.

    8) Fall is my favorite time of year.

    9) I love costuming and garb. I like to find excuses to wear costumes. >.>;;

    10) My future hubby and I watch the news like how other people watch sports.

    11) I was born and raised in Connecticut, but I have lived all over the country.

    12) The town hubby to be and I will be living in when we are able to move in together (about this time next year), and where he grew up, is major inspiration and mentioned in H.P. Lovecraft's short story “A Shadow Over Innsmouth”.

    13) I am a Rennie, I've been going to Rennaisance Faires for over 15 years, which is more than half my life. >.>; Though this summer will be the first time I ever perform in a Ren Faire, as unscripted cast.

    14) I have struggled with weight for the last 10 years, but I am finally heading on the right track and losing weight at a steady, slow pace.

    15) I love a variety of music, but my favorites are industrial, goth, classical, and celtic.

    16) Rather than wearing a traditional gown, I will likely be wearing a corset, blouse, and long skirt.

    17) My favorite clothing accessories are mini top hats and goggles.

    18) David Bowie and Nikola Tesla are my heroes, with Dorothea Dix my heroine.

    19) My Dad built a house for Bill Murray when I was 3. We went over for a barbeque and he burnt the chicken. Also, my mother would not let him hold me.

    20) I go to a karaoke night almost every Thursday, and when I do get the courage to sing, it is usually Paint It Black by the Rolling Stones.
