My Interests

Yeah, stuff interests me. LOOK!!! A chicken!!!! Seriously.....I love to hang out with my 2 wonderful children, I love cooking, being with my family, going to movies, and trying new food. I love to try cuisines from around the world. One of my favorites is Bun Bo Nuong, which is Vietnamese, but I haven't quite mastered how to make it. I absolutely LOVE to laugh. If it's funny, it's for me. For a female, I also LOVE sports, the outdoors, I have and will fish, hunt, camp, ride horses - did someone say pony???? I also love to do anything that involves water, especially the ocean. Anyone up for chunky dunkin?It's like skinny dipping, but it's for us bigger folk. Kidding, don't like to look at my own body, why would I want you looking at it????

I'd like to meet:

Einstein. Oh, were we talking about the living? Hmmmm, Donald Trump. I need to let him analyze some stuff and see where I went awry. With an IQ like mine, I should be making $$$ like that man. I need to figure out where the F*&k I went wrong.
You're 75% Irish
You're very Irish, and most likely from Ireland.
(And if you're not, you should be!) How Irish Are You?
You Are Very Honest
You tell it like it is, no matter what.
Even if the truth hurts, you'll dish it out.
And while some may get hurt by your honesty...
At least everyone knows where you stand! How Honest Are You? You don't know just how true this is! I will try and save your feelings if you're overly sensitive, but if you know me, you know I'll tell you the answer to your question, regardless what the question is. I am honest to a fault. If you've seen Jim Carrey in Liar Liar, then you know what I am referring to.

Music:

The combination of words with beats and tunes that fluctuate in variety enough to make you tap your toes and bob your head. Yeah, music is good.

Movies:

I love to laugh. I love to be sitting on the edge of my seat wondering what's going to happen next. If there were such things as scary movies, then that would definitely be on here. Does Scary Movie 1-4 count? Nothing can scare you better than your imagination, so get a book and READ!!!!

Television:

Jeopardy! of course! Friends, Whose Line is it Anyway, Family Guy, Law & Order (SVU), Grey's Anatomy, as you can see, a wide variety. Did I mention I watch Spongebob even when the kids aren't with me? Yeah, it's like that.
You're an Expert Kisser
You're a kissing pro, but it's all about quality and not quantity
You've perfected your kissing technique and can knock anyone's socks off
And you're adaptable, giving each partner what they crave
When it comes down to it, your kisses are truly unforgettable What Kind of Kisser Are You?

Books:

John Saul, Dean Koontz, Stephen King to name a few. My school books, love them, they advance me. I do critical care, so the critical care books for nursing are excellent references, even if you are not into medicine.
You Are 76% Evil
You are very evil. And you're too evil to care.
Those who love you probably also fear you. A lot. How Evil Are You?
Your Chances of Being a Multimillionaire: 84%
It's almost certain you'll be a multimillionaire. Just keep doing what you're doing.
You are good with money, a creative thinker, and an ethical person. You might be the next Donald Trump! Will You Be a Multimillionaire?
You're Totally Sarcastic
You sarcastic? Never! You're as sweet as a baby bunny.
Seriously, though, you have a sharp tongue - and you aren't afraid to use it.
And if people are too wimpy to deal with your attitutde, then too bad. So sad. How Sarcastic Are You?

Heroes:

My mother-how she survived the 3 of us, I'll never know. She taught me how to be a strong, independent woman.
Your Candy Heart Says "Get Real"
You're a bit of a cynic when it comes to love.
You don't lose your head, and hardly anyone penetrates your heart.

Your ideal Valentine's Day date: People still date?!)

Your flirting style: honest and even slightly sarcastic

What turns you off: A man always hinting about wanting to have sex with me

Why you're hot: you don't just play hard to get - you are hard to get

The art of tying shoes

So yesterday, I taught my youngest niece to tie her shoes!  Now, I need to teach my oldest one how to more easily put in those awful contact lenses.  Speaking of, my mother would have burned...

It really happened

We actually had a little bit of ice/snow down here in Texas!  I know some places get it here regularly, but Austin gets it rarely.  San Antonio even got some, how crazy is that?  The pr...

Oh, the irony

About 8 years ago, I worked for the police department here.  One day my daughter went up to the main station with me to pick up some things I needed.  There were lots of officers walking aro...

Straight to Hades

I know, I'm awful.  I just saw a picture of my soon to be ex's baby.  We are thankful for the small things, and I am thankful I lost the baby, because this is one baby that only a mother cou...

Respect

Just out of curiosity at this point, has dating become null and void?  Have the men that expect women to jump into bed with them as soon as they meet or start hanging out taken over?  Where ...

I forgot

LMAO  You would think I was drunk or high, but since I am neither, and partake of neither, then I would have to say I am secretly blonde????  Don't know, but had a blog to put up (finally) a...

The tooth fairy

Kids are so wonderful!!!  I broke a part of my tooth off last night, and my daughter left me .50 from "the tooth fairy".  How cute!

Ever had those drunk phone calls?

My late night emails seem to be about the equivalent.  I am normally so tired, that I am giddy, and when I read over what I have sent, I laugh and wonder what the crap I was thinking.  So, i...
