1. Do you have any words of wisdom/life sayings/mottos that get you through the day and/or tough times?
"Emotions cloud rational thinkig." - Said by my main communications professor.

2. What is one physical possession you couldn't live without?
My car. I drive everywhere. I would feel stuck without it. Well. That and my phone.

3. What's your sign? Do you believe in astrology?
Pisces. I often believe the things that are written about the personality of pisces, but I often think that horoscopes are a crock. What is kind of funny to me is that I see "pisces" characteristics in my toddler nephew.

4. Ever seen a psychic or had your tarot cards read? Would you want to?
I have not. I would be curious to what a psychic would say. Sometimes I have some "feelings" or "visions", which are said to be common in pisces. I know it sounds crazy, but in all honestly there have been times when I have just known somehting was going to happen, and it did.

5. What's the #1 dealbreaker in a relationship, like, you would walk out the second it happened?
If someone showed up with proof that DH cheated. Like if someone showed up with a child under the age of 5 and proved it was DH child. I couldn't deal with that.

6. Quick you have to trade lives with someone for one day, who is it and why?
Hmm... someone famous, just because I would be curious as how their life was.

7. You've got 1 superhuman power - what is it?
Omniscient.

8. How many close friends do you have? (studies have said women only have 2-3)
maybe 1.

9. Do you ever have "naked day/time" (besides in the bedroom)?
No. sometimes I wish we did.

10. What are your top girl and top boy baby names?
DH LOVES and I mean LOVES Jackson, or Jack for short. I really, really do not like the name Jack. I would be fine with Jackson if Jack wouldn't be used instead. One of my friends also loves the name Jackson for a boy. I guess its a 'race' to who has a boy first. Lately DH has been on Henry, hopefully short for Henrick. I don't mind Henrick, but don't really like Henry.

I really like th name Emilia for a girl. It's my great grandma's name.

nottheonlydreamer44 · November 2010

@ Audgie - I so knew you were gonna say jedi mind tricks; I have psychic abilities. ;-)

@Tafft - Sorry if I brought up a sore spot, hun. I had forgotten all about the possibly not being able to have kids thing. I hope that isn't the case and that you two get exactly what you want and deserve in the future.

@ Loop: you're such a show-off using your big fancy words, lol. I can actually believe the whole "premonition thing" some people can do that. I wish that was me! Also, why the hatred for Jack? I'm not thrilled with it but Jackson is really popular now. Henrick is really different and I don't think I've heard it before; cute. Love the way you spelled Emilia - I like it better with the "E".

@ Kath - you better get on naming that dog. She is too cute not to have a name ASAP. Aww only a couple more weeks til you have a new furbaby... I'm jealous.

@DB - "Some who works in the performing arts area of Disney. I want to work there soooo bad, but I know it won't happen" --- I saw this coming a mile away. You are too cute.

@ Elle - Smoking, huh? I'm interested in knowing why you feel so passionately about that.

1. Do you have any words of wisdom/life sayings/mottos that get you through the day and/or tough times?
Just breathe.

2. What is one physical possession you couldn't live without?
I don't think there's any one thing I can't LIVE without, but I feel pretty lost if I don't have my phone.

3. What's your sign? Do you believe in astrology?
I'm a Scorpio. I believe in astrology to a point.

4. Ever seen a psychic or had your tarot cards read? Would you want to?
Yes. I've been to three because we had free psychic fairs on campus. If BF proposes by Febuary all three will have been right. If not, well...they were close. (One said I'd marry the third man I committed to, one said we would live together within twelve months (this was last February) and the other one said I would marry a Virgo.)

5. What's the #1 dealbreaker in a relationship, like, you would walk out the second it happened?
Infidelity or abuse. They're tied for number 1.

6. Quick you have to trade lives with someone for one day, who is it and why?

7. You've got 1 superhuman power - what is it?
Telepathy.

Living with others puts a damper on all that. So no.

10. What are your top girl and top boy baby names?
BF tries to talk about baby names, but I put a kibosh on that. I feel that it's something that should be discussed or thought about once a couple is pregnant. It also has to do with the fact that I'm afraid I can't get pregnant too.

I had a boss named Jack and that is what I think of now. I wasn't a fan of that guy. Emilia was one of my great grandma's names. I also like it a lot better with the E too. I also like that there is a variety of nick names that can be derived from it.

Thanks Dreamer!

In our discussions Adelaide is definitely in first place. Addie is the actual family name and we came up with Adelaide to make it more modern and because I like big names. However, all those name had a family connection so it could go anyway once we ever get around to having kids.

1. Do you have any words of wisdom/life sayings/mottos that get you through the day and/or tough times?

Well sometimes if I'm having a really bad day, I'll just tell myself, "Alright...relax. Take a deep breath. Everything is going to be ok."

2. What is one physical possession you couldn't live without?

Physical possessions are always things you can live without, but my possession with the most sentimental value is my engagement ring.

3. What's your sign? Do you believe in astrology?

I'm a Pisces. I don't not believe in Astrology, but I don't take it into great consideration when making decisions.

I've never had it done by a professional. And I'd love to.

If he hit me...I'd be gone immediately...along with his castrated balls.

Hazel_B · November 2010

calindi · November 2010

1. Do you have any words of wisdom/life sayings/mottos that get you through the day and/or tough times?
My Mom and Grandma both have a necklace that says "Live, Love, Laugh", so that's sort of the motto of the women in our family.

2. What is one physical possession you couldn't live without?
I think I'd live just fine without any single possession I have, but my most treasured possession is a claddaugh ring my parents gave me when I was 16 years old. I wear it nearly every day, and BF and I have talked about me wearing it as an engagement ring and eventually wedding ring when I travel since it has no stones on it (and thus is less likely to be stolen).

3. What's your sign? Do you believe in astrology?
Sagittarius. No, but I think it's entertaining to read horoscopes once in awhile.

4. Ever seen a psychic or had your tarot cards read? Would you want to?
Nope, and sure if it didn't cost me much.

5. What's the #1 dealbreaker in a relationship, like, you would walk out the second it happened?
Physical abuse. The moment a guy raises a hand to me, he's gone for good.

6. Quick you have to trade lives with someone for one day, who is it and why?
Someone with a big yacht in the middle of the Mediterranean.

7. You've got 1 superhuman power - what is it?
Flying. Boring, I know, but I've always had dreams that I could fly and I wake up massively disappointed to find out it's not real.

8. How many close friends do you have? (studies have said women only have 2-3)
Friends that I could call up in the middle of the night and tell them I needed them, who would get on the first plane the next morning? 6. Three roommates from college, two high school friends, one college friend. 4 girls, 2 guys.

9. Do you ever have "naked day/time" (besides in the bedroom)?
Yep, absolutely! Our first New Years together, we spent all of Jan 1st with a "no clothes" rule (except robes to answer the door to accept Chinese food or pizza deliveries). It was fantastic.

10. What are your top girl and top boy baby names?
For boys, James Henry (my Dad's middle name, combined with BF's and his Dad's middle name).
For girls, I'm not sure. Most of my favorite names start with "M" and BF's last name starts with "M" so that'd commit the poor child to being called M&M her whole life. He likes Julia Rose, and I think it's pretty, too.

BF (before I told him to stop talking about kids names) wanted to use my last name for our son's first name, his middle name for the son's middle name and then his last name. Unfortunately that would make his initials A.S.S. He thinks it's hilarious, I on the other hand, won't let that happen.</div>

1. Do you have any words of wisdom/life sayings/mottos that get you through the day and/or tough times?

"God doesn't give you more than you can handle."
"The greatest hardships are given to the strongest of characters."
"Everything happens for a reason."

Yeah, they may be cheesy platitudes, but they help make all the hard stuff in life make a tiny bit more sense.

"Be thankful for this moment - this moment is your life."

"Tired of crappy things happening to you? Then stop accepting crap and demand something more."

"My darling girl, when are you going to realize that being normal is not necessarily a virtue? It rather denotes a lack of courage."

"Well behaved women seldom make history."

2. What is one physical possession you couldn't live without?

I have jewelry passed down to me from my mom and grandmother. I'd honestly be devastated if something ever happened to any of the pieces.

3. What's your sign? Do you believe in astrology?

Gemini, and no.

4. Ever seen a psychic or had your tarot cards read? Would you want to?

No, and no.

5. What's the #1 dealbreaker in a relationship, like, you would walk out the second it happened?

Cheating or abuse.

6. Quick you have to trade lives with someone for one day, who is it and why?

Angelina Jolie. I would love to see through her eyes (in terms of all the world travel and humanitarian work she does) for a day.

7. You've got 1 superhuman power - what is it?

Ability to heal others.

8. How many close friends do you have? (studies have said women only have 2-3)

I blessed with a lot of good friends. But, in terms of close, tell-anything-to, no-secrets-kept friends? I would say 6, including FI.

9. Do you ever have "naked day/time" (besides in the bedroom)?

Nope.

10. What are your top girl and top boy baby names?

If we have a boy, we know he will be Phillip Christopher (after FI's late brother and my living brother). I'm really pulling for Vivianne Nicole if we have a girl. Other ideas include Autumn, Grace, Savannah for girls; Noah, Connor, Logan, Joshua for boys.

nottheonlydreamer44 · November 2010

Oceana - I love Vivianne Nicole -- I don't think I know anyone with that name! I hope you have a girl

I'm so glad other people like Adelaide but I don't want it to become popular: 10 years ago I was all about Emma and Madison. Yeah, not going to happen now.

4. Ever seen a psychic or had your tarot cards read? Would you want to?

I did see a psychic once in NY. Just a quick read by a lady who had a shop next to the restaurant we ate at. It was fun. But I wouldn't base my life around what she said.

In the summer, yes. In the winter, much less often.
