Ha, I've tricked you into reading my intro!
Howdy, you can call me Tattooed. Im 21 and s/o is 33, Gasp, I'm not married and with an older man, oh the shame! We've been trying since March 2012 with 1 m/c at 7 weeks, and a recent cp. I have pcos, which gives me these awesome wonky cycles. I chart with FF, and have done my own research, so Ill try to not ask the same 5 questions you all love repeating 10 times a day. I've been lurking on and off since November, so I'm pretty comfortable with board etiquette.
I'm fluent in sarcasm, and love to use words like totes, pregly and legit, tho I'd never say them IRL. I have a severe case of RBF, resting bish face, and am extremely blunt with no filter, so I don't make friends all that quick. Im addicted to candy crush and tattoos, and I curse like a sailor. S/o and I run our own business that has taken off this last year, so I have way more free time to bump than is healthy. I also have a huge bumpie crush on Teal Owl, and CLEcyclst, you ladies rock my socks off.
I look forward to jumping right in and joining you ladies!
ETA: missing letter added
