TARDY THE TURTLE!

alehayes · November 2010

1. Tell me something about yourself that's interesting? This can be anything. Really even if it's something not interesting. Just something. I have the weirdest hiccups ever. They make me sound like a pterodactyl.

2. Married, engaged, NEY? Engaged.

3. How long have you/did you lurk before posting? I don't remember. I joined a few years ago when I was majoring in event planning, but I don't think I posted. I got back on when I got engaged in May.

4. If you are coming out of the Knot Closet today, why'd ya wait so long? I'm around sometimes, just usually on A&A or DIY I guess.

5. Style of humor? I find pretty much everything funny. I make a lot of terrible jokes. I'm really sarcastic (I think it's hereditary).

6. Your number 1 talent. Hidden or knot. (Ha, get it? Knot? Word games) I can unwrap Starbursts with my tongue. Also I can touch my nose with my tongue. Those are pretty much the only talents I have. Although I can make really good cupcakes from scratch. Does that count?

7. Thoughts on Tom Hanks. Some of his stuff is awesome. Some of it is not. His hair was terrible in The Da Vinci Code.

eMiLee920 · November 2010

I'm kind of late to this. Stupid work gets in the way of Knotting.

1. Tell me something about yourself that's interesting? This can be anything. Really even if it's something not interesting. Just something. I work on a reality TV show.

2. Married, engaged, NEY? Married

3. How long have you/did you lurk before posting? I've lurked for a while here, but don't post much.

4. If you are coming out of the Knot Closet today, why'd ya wait so long? Intimidation? Also, I'm usually busy at work and 20 other posters have already posted what I would've said (and usually phrased better than I could've done).

5. Style of humor? Sarcastic

6. Your number 1 talent. Hidden or knot. (Ha, get it? Knot? Word games) I don't know if it qualifies as a talent, but if I see you put something down, I can almost always recall where when you can't find it. Except when I'm the one searching.

7. Thoughts on Tom Hanks? Not a huge fan. I don't know why, just don't really care for him.

1. Tell me something about yourself that's interesting? This can be anything. Really even if it's something not interesting. Just something.

My fiance and I had our first date due to the results of a bet over a playoff basketball game.

2. Married, engaged, NEY? Engaged, just under a year to go.

3. How long have you/did you lurk before posting? Couple weeks... it was pretty easy to jump right in!

4. If you are coming out of the Knot Closet today, why'd ya wait so long? You've all seen me before, but I am still a newb :-)

5. Style of humor? Depends on the situation. Very sarcastic and dry, usually, but if I know the crowd I am around won't appreciate that, I tone it down.

6. Your number 1 talent. Hidden or knot. (Ha, get it? Knot? Word games)
Hmmm... my patience when dealing with my extremely young staff at work. That is a talent!!!

3. How long have you/did you lurk before posting?
I, uh, didn't. I didn't realize that the proper protocal was to lurk (nor did I want to be a lurker, brings to mind that creepy guy in the tree on Little Nicky), so I just came here, saw an interesting post, and posted.

1. Tell me something about yourself that's interesting? This can be anything. Really even if it's something not interesting. Just something. FI cheated on his high school g/f about 9 years ago ...with me and now we're getting married- Hope that means we're meant to be and not that he's a creep...

2. Married, engaged, NEY? Engaged- 3 weeks to go

3. How long have you/did you lurk before posting? A year

4. If you are coming out of the Knot Closet today, why'd ya wait so long? Whatever I wanted to say was probably already said and sometimes I have a hard time playing nice.

5. Style of humor? Filthy, dirty and inappropriate, I can turn pretty much whatever you say into something dirty. Gets me in trouble all the time.

6. Your number 1 talent. Hidden or knot. (Ha, get it? Knot? Word games) I can burp anything like a champ.

1. Tell me something about yourself that's interesting? This can be anything. Really even if it's something not interesting. Just something.
I'm a Magician Assistant.

2. Married, engaged, NEY? Engaged for 2 1/2 years so far. Will be over 3 by the time we get married.

3. How long have you/did you lurk before posting? I lurked on the nest and got scared of what I saw over there at the beginning of the year so I came here after a couple months ago once I got the guts.

4. If you are coming out of the Knot Closet today, why'd ya wait so long? I have posted some posts but not a lot.

5. Style of humor? I go across the spectrum. In the past few years its been more sarcastic because FI is.

6. Your number 1 talent. Hidden or knot. (Ha, get it? Knot? Word games) Not many people realize I can dance hip hop, even people who know I am dancer, they just don't expect me to do hip hop.

Tom Hanks is good. I liked him in the movies from the 80s and 90s and was excited when it was announced he was doing DaVinci Code. But like others what disappointed.

crfische · November 2010

Magician assistant? That's awesome. Can you reveal the secrets?!

hcorr34 · November 2010

1. Tell me something about yourself that's interesting? FI and I go against the "norm" for our jobs...I'm a middle school math teacher surrounded by men and he's a pre-school teacher surrounded by women.

2. Married, engaged, NEY? Engaged since 10/10/10 (our 3-year anniversary)

3. How long have you/did you lurk before posting? Not long - first post was on my local board shortly after joining. A long-time friend is a wedding DJ and when I asked him about booking him, he told me to tell him what I could afford. I was afraid of sending him an insulting amount and was looking for the local average. I've been lurking a lot on this Etiquette board...I've had so many questions that have been answered over here!

4. If you are coming out of the Knot Closet today, why'd ya wait so long?

5. Style of humor? Sarcasm is a requirement for dealing with hormonal teens every day!

6. Your number 1 talent. Hidden or knot. Scrabble...I have this weird ability to look at my 7 letters and come up with "bingo" words instantly. It's kinda strange for someone who prefers to work with numbers.

7. Tom Hanks? LOVE him!

One time I was at Kroger and I was looking at spaghetti sauce and a giant Keebler Elf started walking down the aisle...H grabbed me and told me to walk the other way (I hadn't seen the elf) I asked him why and looked - bad move. I power walked down the aisle to get away. When I got the the "Main aisle"...you know the one in the front? There was a guy in a Honey Nut Cheerios Bee suit. I put my basket down and hightailed it out of Kroger. I made H take me to Wal-Mart to get what we needed lol.

3. How long have you/did you lurk before posting?

As evidenced by my post count, I've been around these parts before. I was on a super active month board (08/08) back in the day, and I recently started reading the knut again for sh1ts and giggles. can you say sh1t on this board? (apparently not)

Sometimes posting on a new board is like driving around one of those circular traffic patterns where you're just trying to find the right opportunity to merge, but instead you keep making circles.
