  • I love reading all through the responses they are so interesting, not so much on mine, here it goes:

    1. DH and I met at his office, he was a teller at a bank and I was his customer, I saw him at the front door and think that he is so cute so decided that I will give him a huge smile. He said he fall in love with me immediately after sees me smiling at him.  It took him around 6-8 months to ask me out, and I always thinks that he is a one night stand but he sticks around like a glue.

    2. I'm such a paranoid and hypochondria person, because all through my life, my body process vitamin C really low (i guess vitamin C deficiency?)  I got sick a lot especially flu, then since I took flu shot regularly everything change.

    3. I have  sensitive stomach, I got diarrhea all the times (sorry TMI) even if it means as just eating  pinch of black pepper. 

    4. I have been a really independent person all through my life, I went on a plane by my self since I'm 7 and I dont need any flight attendent helping me. My mom told me she doesn't have to worry about me when I moved 36,000 miles by myself from my house, but cried when my brother moved just because she thinks that my brother would not be able to handle it by his own.

    5. I have more than 100 pair of shoes, my dad said when he help us move to our current house, he swears that he counted almost 200 pair of shoes (which I think he might exaggerated it). I love shoes!!!!!

    I'm not sure if I should laugh...or cry. It was actually a joke putting that in my siggy because there was this point that every crazy person on the bump came over to TTCAL and I was called bitter & unwelcoming some like 10 times in one day. All because we didn't give into the people who did the whole "My doc said to avoid pg, but we didn't listen and now I'm constipated, am I pg? FX that I am. Shoot puppies & rainbows up my @ss please."

    My 5:

    1.  I sang karaoke on a cruise and since no one performed against me, I won my section of the competition.  Yeah.... I ended up performing on the last night of the cruise in full costume in front of about 2,000 people.

    1. I met Will Smith when I lived in LA. He is my #1 favorite celebrity, so it was AMAZING! Here is my pic to prove it!

    2. I am missing 7 permanent teeth. 2 of them I never had at all, and the other 5 only came in as baby teeth. As you can tell by my smile above, I've had great dental and prosthedontic work done!

    3. I am related to the Lambert family of Lambert's Cafe in Missouri and Alabama. If you haven't eaten there, you should! Mmmm!

    4. I used to be VERY good at making mixed tapes of various songs spliced together. I was great with the record and pause buttons on my cassette player.

    5. This is disgusting and totally TMI, but every time I go #2, I make up a verse of the "Diarrhea" song that fits my current situation. "When you' just got home from work, and you feel your colon jerk, diarrhea! diarrhea!"

    1. My left leg had been through 3 reconstructive surgeries and it's all my own body parts, and no metal. 

    2. I lived in the wilderness for a year.

    3. My 'ring' toe joints are fused for no apparent reason.

    4. I am fat, but have a tiny stomach and can only eat small meals. Beats me how that works. 

    5. I snore. Loudly. I should have had my tonsils and adenoids removed when I was young, because they are too big. But, the ENT was a punk and wouldn't work on me. Of course, I did call him a jackass and I was only 18. He was using a 'numbing' spray to try and push a scope up my nose. It kept hurting more and more. He finally told me that the spray was actually a liquid cocaine. Oh, you mean the thing I am freaking allergic too?

     

    Wilderness for a year!  Do tell!!!

    So Awesome!!! I always wanted to go on TPIR!

    My brother was on it in 2008! No Bob Barker, but he did win a bunch of crap, too!

  • 1.  I was born with a dislocated hip.  I can now pop my hip in and out of socket and it makes this gross clicking noise that I can control on command.  I love to freak DH out with it.

    2.  I went to school and earned a degree in Drug & Alcohol Rehabilitation.  I never used it.  I ended up as the GM/Office Manager of a restaurant I worked at since high school.  I wouldn't have needed to waste money on going to college.

    3.  I snuck out nearly every night during the summer I was 16 to stay with a guy I had a crush on, who coincidentally, had a girlfriend.  He was staying with a few older guys we worked with at the time.  That summer was the most rebellious I ever was.  Hahaha.

    4.  I haven't had anything alcoholic to drink since July of 2010.  I am not in recovery or anything, I am just boring I guess.

    5.  I spend way too much money on things I don't need.  It makes me feel better about life.

  • 1. I love reading and am a huge bookworm. 

    2. Fall and winter are my favorite seasons. I love being cozy with blankets and fires and hot beverages (preferably with alcohol as in a hot rum and apple cider or baileys and hot chocolate).

    3. I love reality tv and will watch the bachelor/real housewives/millionaire matchmaker religiously.

    4. Before DH proposed, I went through the entire house in search of the ring. DH came home to find me on a ladder, looking on top of the armoire. Knowing I would snoop, he had hid my ring in the trunk of his car until the day of the proposal.

    5.  I'm a shopaholic.

  • This is fun but harder than I thought! 

    1. I don't drive and have never had a drivers license. 

    2. I have a mild form of narcolepsy. I usually take medicine for it but haven't for the past year because of TTC so I'm literally always sleepy! I also fall asleep sometimes when people are talking to me lol. DH just picks up where he left off most of the time. 

    3. I have 36 nieces and nephews. Yes that's right 36, the oldest one is 5 years younger than me and the youngest one is 2 months old.  

    4. I consider myself blessed to have found love twice. I became a widow at 24.  He was my high school sweetheart and not a day goes by that I don't think of him. I thought I would never find love again but I did. DH takes me to the cemetery and visits my first DH with me. 

    5. I lived and worked in England for a few years. It was an awesome time and I would like to do that again one day.

    This is P&R cause I have dinner plans with my mom.  I can't wait to finish reading the rest of your replies!

  • I thought of something this evening that I can't believe I forgot.  I'd like to replace my No. 4 about having a hard time coming up with things about me with:

    4.  When I was 14 I contracted a rare auto-immune disease called Guillain-Barre Syndrome.  It started at band camp (Yes, I have a "this one time, at band camp" story).  I just got weaker and weaker.  I, and everyone else chalked it up to dehydration, but by the time we went home, it took two people to get me on the bus, one pushing, one pulling, and my mom had to come and practically carry me off the bus.  That night at the ER, they treated me for dehydration and sent me home.  A nurse saw how much my mom was struggling to get me in the van and told her if I wasn't better by morning to be sure to bring me back.  Well, I wasn't better.  They did all kinds of tests and admitted me.  They called in a neurologist in and gave me a spinal tap to diagnose me.  I was in the hospital for a month, on a respirator for 10 days, and had to go through physical and occupational therapy for several months afterward.

  • Hmm, this is difficult.  I'd have to say my five are:

    1.  I absolutely detest bacon.  And I've never met anyone else who didn't like it.

    2.  I used to play the flute and piccolo in high school and was so good that I was part of a touring youth orchestra in Baltimore.

    3.  I never wanted kids until part way through 2011.  Now I can't imagine trying NOT to have them.

    4.  I am my parents' first child, but I almost wasn't.  My parents were in the process of adopting and had given up TTC when my mom found out she was pregnant with me.

    5.  I'm obsessed with home shopping channels. I buy tons of great stuff (designer handbags and shoes) from them.  My husband thinks I'm a nut.

    4. I consider myself blessed to have found love twice. I became a widow at 24.  He was my high school sweetheart and not a day goes by that I don't think of him. I thought I would never find love again but I did. DH takes me to the cemetery and visits my first DH with me. 

    This brought a tear to my eye. I'm sorry for your loss and so glad you found your second love. :) 

    This.  I'm so sorry you went through that but so happy you found love again.

    This. I'm so sorry, but the Lord works in wonderful ways, so glad you found love again with a man that understands

    I thought of something this evening that I can't believe I forgot.  I'd like to replace my No. 4 about having a hard time coming up with things about me with:

    4.  When I was 14 I contracted a rare auto-immune disease called Guillain-Barre Syndrome.  It started at band camp (Yes, I have a "this one time, at band camp" story).  I just got weaker and weaker.  I, and everyone else chalked it up to dehydration, but by the time we went home, it took two people to get me on the bus, one pushing, one pulling, and my mom had to come and practically carry me off the bus.  That night at the ER, they treated me for dehydration and sent me home.  A nurse saw how much my mom was struggling to get me in the van and told her if I wasn't better by morning to be sure to bring me back.  Well, I wasn't better.  They did all kinds of tests and admitted me.  They called in a neurologist in and gave me a spinal tap to diagnose me.  I was in the hospital for a month, on a respirator for 10 days, and had to go through physical and occupational therapy for several months afterward.

    Wow! I'm so glad they found out what was wrong and got you the treatment you needed! If not, we wouldn't have your wonderful awesome self here!!

    5. I have more than 100 pair of shoes, my dad said when he help us move to our current house, he swears that he counted almost 200 pair of shoes (which I think he might exaggerated it). I love shoes!!!!!

    I have close to 200 pairs as well.  Some people would think that's excessive, but hey, I have to be me, right?

    This is fun but harder than I thought! 

    3. I have 36 nieces and nephews. Yes that's right 36, the oldest one is 5 years younger than me and the youngest one is 2 months old.  

    Holy crap!  I don't even think there are 36 people in my entire extended family!

    I am so sorry sweetie. Your husband is very sweet to take you out there. I'm glad that you were able to find love again. <3

    edit: rephrase

    Viking I know you too will find love again. Divorce is a lot like a death in the grieving process. I have high hopes for you girl!

    Lol it really is wonderful and sad. Wonderful to be part of such a big family, I wouldn't have it any other way.  Sad because my DD is always asking why she is an only child and her cousins have lots of siblings.
