...Can You Handle My Truth?
I just want you all to know that if you want me to add you, you're going to have to give me a good reason. If you just send me a friend request I'm going to deny you. It's not that I'm stuck up, it's just that I don't see the point in having "friends" I don't talk to. It's gay. All of the people I have on my list I either know in real life, they gave me a GREAT reason to be friends or they're bands. So, come on...give me a reason. Send me a message.
~I'm a walking contradiction.
~Though I don't drink it, I love pictures of blood, so if you have any, send 'em my way!
~I'm very open & honest. Sometimes brutally.
~If you don't want a truthful answer to a question, don't ask me. (i.e. "Do these jeans make me look fat?" I will tell you the truth)
~I'm neurotic. If you don't know what this means, you should look it up. Knowledge is POWER.
~When I L.O.V.E. someone or something, I L.O.V.E. with my whole heart.
~I'm 5'4".
~Until about 4 years ago my eyes were blue all the time...then they started changing colours. Now they go from blue to green to gray.
~I like to know a little bit about everything so I'm full of useless knowledge & L.O.V.E. to share. ~ Did you know that goldfish have a memory span of only 3 seconds?
And that drangonflies only have a life span of 24 hours?
~I have a terrible memory, but remember things that don't matter & dates. I always remember dates. Birthdays especially & dates of events that stick out in my own mind, but others couldn't care less about.
~I often feel insecure & confident. AT...THE...SAME...TIME...
~I'd rather feel insane than sane.
~My daddy died suddenly of a heart attack when I was 11...while I was in the room.
~I'm not afraid of anything.
~I like to make people question themselves.
~I like to make people feel good about themselves & the world.
~I L.O.V.E. to give advice.
~I L.O.V.E. baseball & my favorite teams are the New York Yankees & the Detroit Tigers.
~I L.O.V.E. Pistons Basketball.
~I L.O.V.E. football & have season tickets at The Big House.
For those of you that DON'T know...that's the University if Michigan football stadium.
~I wear a size 34-D bra, but wish it were a 34-C again.
~They're real.
~I love my hair.
~Like Britney Spears, I went from a 34-B to a 34-D over a period of 3 months which is why I know she didn't get implants.
~Britney's birthday is the day after mine...same year.
~I'm Italian, Irish & English.
~I never want to give birth.
~But I want to be a mother, so I'm going to adopt.
~If I could live anywhere in the world, it would be Italy.
~If I could live anywhere in this country, it would be North or South Carolina. ~No one L.O.V.E.S. me as much as I L.O.V.E. them.
~I'm in debt & have many $$$ issues.
~I wish I were rich & famous so I could help more people.
~If I could have a career in any field I wanted, I would be a full time volunteer for as many groups as I could.

It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month, which we know today as the honeymoon.
In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts... So in old England, when customers got unruly, the bartender would yell at them "Mind your pints and quarts, and settle down." It's where we get the phrase "mind your P's and Q's."
Many years ago in England, pub frequenters had a whistle baked into the rim, or handle, of their ceramic cups. When they needed a refill, they used the whistle to get some service. "Wet your whistle" is the phrase inspired by this practice.
You're painstakingly impressed ;-)
