Getting to Know You

missy68 · July 2010

Since in a way, we're all newbie-ish around here, let's get to know each other a little better.

1. Are you married? If so, how long and where did you get married? Got a photo to share? If you're not married, when is your date and where will you get married?

2. How many and what kind of pets do you have, if any? Extra points for pics.

3. Tell us two - or more if you'd like - things about yourself that we don't know or would be surprised about.

3. If I didn't work in a professional job, I'd work in a tattoo parlor and I'd have tattoos everywhere. Even my face.
H and I first met at a party, but I was too intoxicated to remember it. Then 2 years later, before I even knew his last name... I slept with him.

I have at least one stuffed animal in every room of the house.

I think just about all furry animals are cute, including rats I see when waiting for the train in Chicago. For this reason, FI always shields my eyes when we drive by roadkill on a road trip.

I absolutely love horror movies, even though I have a crazy active imagination and am afraid of the dark.

3) I'm 3 degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon (and we have the same birthday)...but I'm not really a fan. I've never eaten Taco Bell. I can cross just one eye. Oh, and my FI and I are getting married on the 8th anniversary of our 1st date.

No pets yet! I'm still at school in Detroit (39 days until I escape!). Nebb, your pug is the CUTEST! I'd really love a pug, but I also have my heart set on a shelter dog.

3. Tell us two - or more if you'd like - things about yourself that we don't know or would be surprised about.

Oh geez. I'm going to be a funeral director, which means that this lady is going to work with dead people. No, it doesn't bother me, I promise.

Also... I am a garlic junkie.

Getting to know you... Getting to know all about you.. Now I have that song stuck in my head. Thanks Missy ;P

1. Are you married? If so, how long and where did you get married? Got a photo to share? If you're not married, when is your date and where will you get married? 11/27/10 in Round Rock, TX

2. How many and what kind of pets do you have, if any? Extra points for pics.
Only dustbunnies.

3. Tell us two - or more if you'd like - things about yourself that we don't know or would be surprised about.

I already tell you guys so much. I don't hold a lot back. hmmmmm...

I kept a 4.0 GPA (highest you can get in our grading system) from 1st grade through my bachelors degree. From some of my posts, I'm pretty sure that's not always evident.

This year I went on medication to help control my ADD, for the first time in my life. Because we want to TTC pretty soon, the Dr. put me on a half dose of a bipolar med, just to even me out and slow my thoughts down. Its like night and day!

We're getting married 4/16/11. I'm too lazy to move to the other computer to get any pics of us together, but here we are separate. My pic is a scary bright light web cam photo. I promise that I actually am very tan

The Mr.

I'm a big fan of our 2nd amendment rights. I have a few guns, and I really enjoy shooting and learning more about guns.

I met my best friend when we were 3 in a ballet class. She hated me until the 6th grade, but we've been BF's since then.

[QUOTE]Since in a way, we're all newbie-ish around here, let's get to know each other a little better. In what way are we all newbieish? Or do you mean, to this board? Ok, nevermind, I think I get it. 
1. Are you married? If so, how long and where did you get married? Got a photo to share? I've been married since September last year. I have many a photo to share which I have tormented you all with on as many occasions as was possible over the past 10 months. 2. How many and what kind of pets do you have, if any? Extra points for pics. 3 cats, Naia (the cat-like cat), and Chomp, and Tapatio (litter mates who we got after our beautiful baby Nomad passed last year). Here's a sig pic from the crazy cat ladies forum I sometimes post on that shows them all:

Tell us two - or more if you'd like - things about yourself that we don't know or would be surprised about. I've never touched the snow (hoping to rectify this in two weeks!). I'm having a hard time thinking of another! One thing that you perhaps wouldn't guess is that I failed a course at university (which was the only course I've ever failed, save for getting a D in physical education in year ten because I despised it) because I didn't turn up for the exam. Highly unlike me and actually rather ridiculous![/QUOTE]

1. Are you married? If so, how long and where did you get married? Got a photo to share? If you're not married, when is your date and where will you get married?

Yep. I got married in May here in NC. It was awesome. This is Ben breakdancing right after the ceremony. We told him to do something crazy and that's what he chose to do.

2. How many and what kind of pets do you have, if any? Extra points for pics.

Yep. 2 cats.

Here is Simon. If he could talk, he would be saying "I hate your guts".

This is chicken snuggling with a sleepy Ben.

3. Tell us two - or more if you'd like - things about yourself that we don't know or would be surprised about.

I don't know. I'm pretty much an open book on here and since I'm a post whore, I don't know that there is much that you don't know about me. I did grow up in a neighborhood that hosted a celebrity golf tournament each year, so I got to meet lots of B list celebrities and the Vice President of the Dominican Republic.

And I've recently added little bits of paper to my list of phobias.

3. Tell us two - or more if you'd like - things about yourself that we don't know or would be surprised about. My co-workers and I have lurked for a few years on these boards - mainly SB but E the past year or so. It seems like as soon as one of us would get married, another would get engaged. I refuse to put up any pics because I want to be able to actually speak my mind and not worry about the consequences with the crazies!
