View Full Version : Just for Fun
AndreaPurple 12-16-06, 09:16 AM Ok, I know there are some here who have gotten to know each other pretty well, but then there are plenty of us who haven't. I thought this would be a fun way for us all to get to know each other a little bit better. And even for those who have gotten to know each other, this might be a fun way for you to learn something new about them.
So here it is, share some fun fact(s) (can be 1 or 101) about you that no one would know, whatever you feel like sharing.
Obviously, I will start....
My favorite color is purple
I have 3 tattoos
I was married when I was 28 and lived with mom and dad till the day I got married. (that sounds more virtuous then it really is...LOL:D )
I got my first pair of glasses in the 4th grade
I got braces when I was (I think) 12 and (I think) I had them for 2 years
My parents have been married 45 years, I have 3 siblings and I am the baby of the family
My first car was a Nova
I drive a Mini van, I call it my mommy mini
2 of my 3 closest friends are male
I am a cross between a princess and a truck driver.:D I am more comfortable being one of the guys, but also like girly stuff. As a kid my best friend was the boy next door (still one of my closest friends today) and I had more fun playing with cars and trucks, climbing trees and playing in the mud with him then I did playing with dolls.
I like stupid stuff like Beavis and Butthead (huh huh, I said butt)
I listen to all kinds of music but like country the best.

"Name 10 Weird Things About Yourself"
Ahahahahahahaha! This is fun, fun, fun!
1) I am terribly picky about my sleeping system. I must have a pillow between my legs, the covers stretched tight so that there are NO LUMPS WHATSOEVER and I sleep on my side ONLY with the covers pulled up over my head. I also snore!
2) I am bowlegged from birth (no stupid comments, I just have twisted shinbones is all).
3) I have two toes on each feet with webbing between them and so do my father and little brother. Again, I was born this way.
4) I had my nose broken in high school by having a soccer ball drop-kicked into my face!
5) I am the third of 5 living generations of females (my last surviving grandparent is now a great-great-grandmother).
6) I am allergic to soooo many things my allergist once told me I am allergic to life. Some of my stranger allergies are food allergies, including all citrus fruits, all melons and orange pekoe tea. No sweet tea, lemonade or watermelons for me!
7) All of my children went vertex at 5 months gestation and stayed in the exact same spot for the remainder of my pregnancies.
8) Although I have traditional pets right now (cats) I actually prefer nontraditional pets. I have kept snakes and lizards in the past with great results and I am an EXCELLENT bird trainer!
9) Speaking of my pets, I tend to aquire them in batches and theme-name them. My cockatiels were all named from Star Trek, so was my iguana and my current kittens are too. My snakes were all named for semi-precious gemstones. My lovebirds were all named for cartoon birds. Etc, etc.
10) I HATE CHEWING GUM, because I cannot chew the stuff without swallowing it. I never could. I have probably eaten pounds of gum in my lifetime.
This is a copy paste from my Yahpoo 360 blog :D, where I have a habit of posting silly question lists and tagging other bloggers. Andrea? TAG~! You're it!
AndreaPurple 12-16-06, 11:36 AM Yay, I'm glad someone else thinks this is fun too! :D And yes, this is exactly the kind of thing I was talking about.
Crazy Feet, you and I have some things in common, lets see, I was also born with webbed toes, the second and third toes on each foot(I don't want any wise cracks either:eyebrow: ). I have had snakes and birds as well. I snore too:o .
Ok, so what does being "it" entail? What do I do??:eek:

~Ødd~Scr~θθball 02-09-07, 12:08 PM Some Semi-normal...? Odd or Funny things about me....?! :D
I am a Scorpio and my Chinese sign is the Rooster. Yes, I'll admit it I enjoy reading horoscopes-I don't really believe those daily ones but Natal ones I find somewhat accurate.
I was adopted by four cats. No surprise there as I've always loved and had cats around me. I would also love to have a little pug dog-and when I can adopt children-a well trained protective German Shepard would be a must have. Parents can't be too careful now-a-days.
No webbed feet, here but I have a foot deformity called Clawfoot where my toes turn upward. Makes me walk oddly and can't wear just any shoe. Has to have a deep toe-box.
I absolutely adore kids and wish I could be one again. Don't have any of my own :( and will never give birth to any.:(. So unfair...!}Still hope to adopt some, however.
I also snore and like to sleep snuggled under an electric blanket.I also sleep in wierd positions!
I Love Autumn and those colors.
Without my Beano, my stomach makes loud rumbling noises! :o Yes it's funny but not in public! :eek: :o At least it's not uhm-m-m a fanny pack, problem! :o
I have pierced ear-lobes but can't stand to touch upper portion of my ears. Cant stand for anyone else to either. Can you imagine what a trip to doctor or hair cutters is like..? :faint:
I love to have fun...and ....more fun..!
I also love to knit. Cables and Yarn overs are among my favorite stitches. I would also love to learn how to Tat
I love to draw portraits and figures in color-pencil and I enjoy creative writing and secretly hope to write and illustrate a children's book and maybe get it published....some day.
WoW what a Fun and Neat Thread, Andrea Purple :D
pedalpounder 02-09-07, 01:14 PM - I celebrate birthdays not only in years but also in days. I celebrated my 10,000th day 2 years ago.
- On February 14th of this year, I will be exactly half my mom's age (this happens once in your life) (She doesn't know, and I sent her a surprise gift)
- On February 14th of this year, it will be exactly 2 years since my 10,000th day.

- I drive a yellow Lotus Elise
- I am an impulse buyer
- I was married at 23 and divorced at 28
