Getting sea sick? That's a strange bucket list. :huhlaugh:

[girl_dee]

i have a frozen fish stick craving very very often..........

[C0LLETTE]

I love whacked tourist attractions. See the sign on the highway; drive on for abt 5 minutes while thinking about it, then make a fast u-turn and go back to visit...i'm never disappointed:

the Torrington Alberta Gopher Museum; the Corn Palace in Mitchel S.Dakota, the massive World's First UFO Landing Pad in St Paul Alberta,
World's Largest Painted Easter Egg in Vegreville Alberta.etc etc.

I always imagine someone going into a town council meeting carrying a flip chart and saying "Listen up, everyone! I have a great idea for a great tourist attraction that's going to bring thousands of tourists here...put us on the map...We got big trees, let's cut a hole in one and let people drive through it...We got lots of of cow shit, let's have the world's biggest cow shit throwing Olympics ..etc etc..

And I always show up.

[C0LLETTE]

Oh do tell!

[Breathless]

I'm that person who scooped the item on ebay in the last 4 seconds of bidding, and won because no one could come back with a counter offer

[Kenna]

Oh do tell!

Lol...well, it involved two very hungry friends who decided late one night to "experiment" with the new Ready Set Go Fryer and several recipes that called for veggies or mini-corn dogs, and (my down fall) a bag of Food Lion veggie batter (kinda like Shake-n-bake for veggies, only with wayyyyy too much pepper)....
I was excited we had a big batch of zucchini and yellow squarsh...so we shredded a bunch, tossed it with batter, fried it up...took one bite, and laughed our butts off about how bad it was, especially after I had bragged of my cooking skills. ..It was like a pancake batter with a tub of pepper. NASTY!!! ...
I think we drove to town to get dinner at Wendy's after that.

I don't recall using the Ready Set Go since then.

[WolfyOne]

I suck at keeping in touch, but I love my friends and family

[WolfyOne]

I'm an avid reader and can read a couple books a week on my tablet

[Kenna]

That same best friend (noted above) will beg me to make my beef bourguignon with portabella mushrooms, but my other friend forbids me to use mushrooms. I LOVE mushrooms.

[girl_dee]

I do not like talking on the phone.

[Gemme]

I am an inch and a half taller than JDeere.

I'm approximately 3 inches taller than Collette.

I feel very tall right now.

[candy_coated_bitch]

I'm afraid of clowns.

I love to go fishing. Many people think I'm 'less femme' for this.

[Orema]

I'm approximately 3 inches taller than Collette.

I'm about 2.5 inches taller than Gemme.

:bow: though people think I'm taller when I have big hair

I am very old in my soul! AND I happen to LOVE that I am.

[girl_dee]

When I go out with my son's or my daughter, I wear my favorite pair of dressy shoes because my both of my son's and my daughter are fairly tall (6'7", 6'5", 6'2").

[Gayandgray]

I hate being in crowds.

[Soft*Silver]

I do not like talking on the phone.

OH!!! I HATE talking on the phone. I spent too much time on the phone when I had long distance relationships and now I totally shy away from phone talk. I avoid talking on the phone at all costs, even at my job. All my friends and family know this about me and only discourse with me in texts or on Facebook or email. The ONLY person I talk to on the phone is my grand daughter! And thats because she is so precious I cant bear not to connect with her any way I can!

And I have NO clue how to use the stuff that lets you see each other as you talk on the phone. My 3 year old grand daughter calls me on it so she can see me to talk to me, but I cant call her like that. I dont know how!

[Zimmeh]

So your about 9 inches taller than me?

Zimmwh

I am about:

i have a small foot.. Like i can wear a girls 4.

[Mel C.]

wow...and I wear a mens 11 1/2

[Gemme]

When I go out with my son's or my daughter, I wear my favorite pair of dressy shoes because my both of my son's and my daughter are fairly tall (6'7", 6'5", 6'2").

No one over 6 foot is 'fairly tall'.

In my world, your kids are Gigantor to me.

:blink:

i have a small foot.. Like i can wear a girls 4.

I, too, have small tootsies. Not as small as yours but my galoshes, which I will wear tomorrow, are a girl's size 6 and are soooooo cute.

I admit; I like cute galoshes.

And saying galoshes.

It's a fun word, like onomatopoeia.

[Kätzchen]

I just knew you were going to say that, *lol* :blush:

I used to be the tallest of all my siblings. But eventually they all grew to be taller than me (my kids are as tall as my siblings).


-------☆--------

I had all my kids by C-section because I couldn't have them naturally (I'm too small). And, because all of my kids were over 21" long at birth, and because they also were over 9lbs (except Eddie, he was just barely 8lbs).

Your shortest child is still just over a foot taller than me.

I'm calling one of them when I need to reach the top shelf at a store.

They would most likely help you out, they help me a lot when they're home.

---------☆---------

I like to swim (float, is more like it)

My kids can't stand sports of any kind, especially basketball.

[Kenna]

I used to dislike being short...now I don't mind because I don't have to bend so far to put my shoes on, nor do I hit my head on the ceiling as I walk down steps (like the plumber did today).

I can just hear my best friend now..."when the hell do you wear shoes?" ...When I want to feel taller :eatinghersheybar:

[Kenna]

Right?? One of my butch partners told me she freaked out when she saw me cleaning the fish. I'm like well how the hell are we supposed to eat it??

I would say the same thing, then add "I have yet to see a fish clean itself, then lay down over hot coals and baste itself in lemon butter just for your delight."

(Give a person a fish, they will eat for a day.... teach a person to fish and you feed them for a lifetime...)

[Kenna]

I once killed a very large snake with a pipe wrench, and Blade's kitchen floor has five dents to prove it.

[Stud_puppy1991]

One thing about me, eh? Well, here's one: I am a huge comic book geek. Like seriously. Doesn't matter if it's Marvel or DC or whatever, I will read and collect them all. Matter of fact, there are 54 in my collection currently

[WolfyOne]

I'm only good in crowds where I know people. I can be silent and stay to myself, otherwise. I could never be a motivational speaker.

[candy_coated_bitch]

I love tea and drink at least four cups a day. My cupboard has more tea than food in it.

I wear a men's size 10.5 AND a 12 IF I buy in women's....

When on a camping trip, I'm the fire pit fire bug. I have kept the fire and coals going during 3 days of Lake James rain to keep my camping buddies warm and well fed.

[girl_dee]

my fingers and hips.... are double jointed

[Breathless]

I love to go fishing. Many people think I'm 'less femme' for this.

I love LOVE fishing, can't get enough of it, however I squeal like a little girl trying to get the fish off the hook when it starts wiggling.... i try so hard to do it quietly, I just can't help it.

[girl_dee]

I love LOVE fishing, can't get enough of it, however I squeal like a little girl trying to get the fish off the hook when it starts wiggling.... i try so hard to do it quietly, I just can't help it.

all this talk of fishing...

Its been a lifetime thing for me. I drove a boat since about 9 yrs old. i grew up on the bayou so it was what we did. I do not believe in catch and release, i only kill what I eat or give to others. When my freezer was full, i would drop off my catch to the old men who fished off the bank. They said their wives thought they were catching all of them haha

My little house on the bayou was my heaven. I could be in my fishing spot in less than 10 minutes. On the weekends thats how i start the day. The bayous by my house filled the bayous and the intracoastal canal could bring me all the way to the big lake. Sometimes i just went gator watching with my trolling motor. I saw otters playing, blue herons flying, pelicans, turtles.... it was truly my paradise.
I could fish until dark fishing the banks all the way in.

It was always crazy seeing the looks on the other fishermen's faces when I would fly down the bayou all alone in my aluminum flatboat. (One scared the crap out of me and not in a good way)

As an adult I competed in fishing rodeos down at the gulf and had a garage full of trophies and plaques! I loved it.

I took up freshwater and flyfishing and found a whole new love. Bass fishing is my true calling!

I have only been out there a couple of times since Katrina, its just not the same now. Maybe one day..

[WolfyOne]

Y'all are making me sad with fishing, I miss it and haven't done any since I left Oklahoma.

[girl_dee]

Y'all are making me sad with fishing, I miss it and haven't done any since I left Oklahoma.

Honestly now that I am away from fishing I have been thinking. People have asked me "how can you do that to the poor fish?" I guess I was desensitized and never thought about what the fish was going through on the other side of the water. I have fought a large 40 pound redfish for 20-30 minutes until i just gave up. That doesn't make me feel good now.

I have no problem killing something that is threatening me, but the fish haven't done anything , other than being hungry at the wrong time.

It made me start re-thinking the whole thing.

[Orema]

I'm with Besame on fishing—I'm the perfect companion with a book.

I cannot stand the sound of the squeaky shoes on the gym floor during basketball.

I'm going to go with the eye theme: I have tricolored eyes--green, dark blue, and orangey brown. They look all sorts of different colors depending on the lighting, my makeup, and what I'm wearing.

I do not play electronic games. The only one that I tried and enjoyed was Wii.

I'm an early to rise, early to bed kind of person but on occasion or special occasions can last til at least midnight.

Yeppers. Hazel is a combination of two or more colors in the eyes.

I do not have hazel eyes, but I wish I did. They would be more interesting, I think.

LOVES being taller than my femme so I can "kiss down" and NOT up!!

recalculations required

I originally said I was an inch and a half taller than JDeere therefore clay is ONLY 8.5 inches taller than me. Now this may not be important to all you elegant tall folks but to me it is HUGE.

In my mind's eye I am a fabulous 6'4 Amazon with arms of steel and a deadly aim.

My eyes are a combination of my parents. My father has ice blue eyes and my mom has very dark brown (almost black) eyes.

Mine are a dark green, like emerald.

[WolfyOne]

I'm not a get up and go person. I wake up about 3 hours before I have to leave for work. Sometimes I lay in bed an entire hour before I get out of it. I often run downstairs start the coffee and walk back upstairs and crawl under the covers for 20 minutes while it perks. Perhaps because it's still winter.

I often run downstairs start the coffee and walk back upstairs and crawl under the covers for 20 minutes while it perks. Perhaps because it's still winter.

We have similar routines! After having my wake up time back in bed with coffee I like to have time to do things like make/start dinner or do some laundry before I go in to work. Do not like having to just run out the door without some home/nesting time.

[C0LLETTE]

On the theory that " it's always darkest before the dawn", I get out of bed pretty quickly after I wake up. Otherwise I lie there having gloomy thoughts about the world going to shit.

A stiff hit of caffeine and a banana ( life giving potassium) clears up the worst of that...at least until i turn on CNN.

[Orema]

I'm with Wolfy—I'm a slow mover in the mornings and am awake in the bed for at least an hour before getting up.

[Jesse]

I am out of the bed as soon as I realize I am awake. I also fall asleep almost immediately upon going to bed at night. I never have been one to stay in the bed while awake, unless I am sick, or there is someone giving me sweet reason to linger in bed a while. :love1:

[MsTinkerbelly]

I get up as soon as my eyes open, but I am not awake. I have to feed the pets and sit down with my coffee before my brain forms logical thought. I could also roll out of bed and get into the shower to wake up, but I prefer the coffee method.

I do not linger in bed unless occupied, or sick...I get twitchy and toss around.

My mom is Cherokee and her eyes are an very dark shade of brown- almost black. My dad's eyes are sort of an electric pale sky blue.

--------☆---------


I'm an highly disciplined type of individual. I don't know why though, unless it's because of the social structure of sibling duties and responsibilities, which many were delegated to me, from a very young age. It's typical of me to oversee many projects to completion, while bringing on board new duties, then that sort of cycle keeps going until ..... I just need to take time off. Which isn't always easy for me to do, to take time off. Weirdly, I've gotten better at letting go, over the years.

I don't know why though, unless it's because of the social structure of sibling duties and responsibilities, which many were delegated to me, from a very young age. It's typical of me to oversee many projects to completion, while bringing on board new duties, then that sort of cycle keeps going until ..... I just need to take time off. Which isn't always easy for me to do, to take time off. Weirdly, I've gotten better at letting go, over the years.

My great grandmother was Cherokee. Nice to know our heratige.

I remember Chad at the Reunion. I think we bumped into each other in the hospitality suite!

[homoe]

I ran into someone from this site a couple times on a city bus in Seattle!

[WolfyOne]

For those that don't know me, I have a 74% hearing loss in one ear and 66% in the other.

Thank you for remembering me. I wonder if I look the same now? I have changed a bit over the years. See my gallery photo it is current.

You have not changed. My gallery pic was taken a couple of years ago. I am sure I have aged by now!

This I remember. Your face was always tucked behind the camera, my friend.

I, too, am not a fan of having my picture taken.

You are biased! lol

But I love it. One thing about dee? She always makes her friends feel good. You were missed, lady.

[girl_dee]

i am fascinated with the moon, It took me a very long time to shoot it properly and get a decent photo. Now that I have that down pat I just like to gawk at it.

:moonstars:

[pajama]

I like to work on cars. I do not like to troubleshoot electrical problems on cars. That is all.

[WolfyOne]

I sold auto parts for 15 years and was a service manager for one year. Selling the parts was better than dealing with crazy people who had multiple things wrong with their cars, but only wanted to put a band aid on and come back a week later complaining their car is still giving them trouble.

[girl_dee]

I straighten out the buggies at the supermarket.

[clay]

I love to surprise special people in my life!!

[Wh1ms1]

I love, love, love to dance to...disco, rock, pop...need to take lessons for C&W. (And I love the Beegees toooo) I know, that's 2...

[Brisa]

I have 3 sets of twins in my family:|

[girl_dee]

I love to surprise special people in my life!!

hah and for me, I LOVE to be surprised. I will never snoop around to find a gift or anything, i love surprises :surpriseparty:

[Jesse]

I love half sour pickles!

[Gemme]

I straighten out the buggies at the supermarket.

They call them carriages up here.

Also, a water fountain is a bubblah.

Northerners speak a different language sometimes.

:blink:

I'm looking forward to my day off tomorrow. That's all I've got.

[Bèsame*]

I love half sour pickles!

what do you do with the other half?

[Jesse]

what do you do with the other half?

hahaha! Too funny! :)

[FireSignFemme]

[QUOTE=Gemme;1131305] [They call them carriages up here]

They call them them shopping carts in these parts.

[candy_coated_bitch]

I'm obsessed with lip balms.

[clay]

I disdain glitter...in any form.....ugghhh....:(

[CherylNYC]

I'll play.

I feel cold much of the time. Even on a warm day I can suddenly feel frozen if the wind changes. I hate, HATE feeling cold.

[kittygrrl]

Chocolate is not safe around me:eatinghersheybar:

[clay]

I have such a huge soft spot in my heart for senior (frosty faced) dachshunds.

[Medusa]

I have kept a little shrine to my Grandmother for years. I have a photo of her from the 40s and she had on the cutest little dress that had sparrows on each shoulder. Super pin-up style!
I also have a china dish that I broke the lid on when I was 3 and she painstakingly glued it back together. It isn't worth anything, just memory and history.
I burn candles for her and sometimes leave little things I think she might like. Her voice is still pretty loud in my heart. <3

[Soft*Silver]

the older I get, the more at home I feel on earth. I have always been a wanderer geographically, career wise, relationships, emotionally...but not so much anymore. I am very settled and grounded and while I still reach up toward the sky, my roots are very deep...

I love this. I have a very inexpensive old lamp of my (maternal) grandmothers that I've had since she passed about 10 years ago. The kicker? The same light bulb has stayed lit all this time.

I don't collect hats, but I do have a truck load of them. I added 4 more to this noncollection this week

[girl_dee]

haha ... thats a collection my friend




I collect rocks, not as exciting as hats. Sometimes i paint the rocks and write things on them. I make them into little painted ladybug families sometimes....

[Brisa]

I collect vintage wine corkscrews and other vintage wine 'things'.

[girl_dee]

I love biographies on just about ANYone.

[MsTinkerbelly]

I can't sleep with the covers tucked in at my feet.

[Chad]

I taped a biography about Maya Angelou that is just wonderful. :)

I drink strong coffee during the work week and hot Irish tea on my days off.

I used to drink coffee just about from sunup to sundown. I love it! The last year or so, I haven't wanted to drink it on an everyday basis, or even every week. So, I usually keep a jar of most excellent cold brew that I make, in the fridge. This way it's there when I want it and I can choose to have it cold or heat it up.

Sure thing buddy! Cold Brew Coffee (https://www.chowhound.com/recipes/basic-cold-brewed-coffee-30487) I use a half gallon canning jar with the plastic screw on lid instead of the plastic container, but I'm sure either works fine. I hope you enjoy it! :)

[girl_dee]

I acquired a taste for cold brew over the summer last year. now I love it!

I make it with a coffee filter and a mason jar with my Community Coffee

[Blade]

I hate wearing socks. I only wear them when I have to in boots or shoes and if I can get away with taking them off unnoticed at work- (I hate stinky shoes more, so there is a need sometimes) -they are gone! Neatly in my footwear for quick reapply if necessary. IF I have to wear them, they HAVE to be super soft and the seams have to be over the top of my toes, crooked at all will cause an accident while driving as I fight to fix them or take them off. I have flip flops in my car for long trips.

[Jesse]

I dislike wearing socks as well, in fact I am most content barefooted.

[PaPa]

I dislike wearing socks as well, in fact I am most content barefooted.

Definitely agree! I only use shoes when venturing out in public. However, even then it is not sneakers or boots. It is usually moccasins.

[C0LLETTE]

I can't sleep with the covers tucked in at my feet.

me too.

I have a clause in my will saying that if they tuck covers over my feet in the coffin, they get nothing.

[Chad]

It is my impression that I get along the best with animals. In addition, I am at peace in nature.

[girl_dee]

my earlobes are tattooed...........

[Jesse]

my earlobes are tattooed...........

That's unique! What is the tat?

[girl_dee]

That's unique! What is the tat?

Well they used to be tiny little vines, the right one has a teeny rainbow heart in it. but over they years they have gotten bigger. I really want to have them removed.

[Blade]

I always wear shoes/boots. Even just to get up and go to the bathroom.

[girl_dee]

I am a freak for facts and trivia. I am googling stuff the whole time I watch a movie.

[Jesse]

I have a consultation later this week for a new tat. It would be number ... um (counting)... number 7- but one of those was a 10 part piece that went together over time.

[Wh1ms1]

I am a tattoo virging. 1. Because my mind is always changing, and 2. Because my body does as well. 😊

[Breathless]

I collect tribal art. I have few Mayan masks I acquired at full asking price plus some, while travelling to Guatemala and Mexico, and yet my most prized is a tri-piece oil painting my sister did for me of African elephants as a surprise gift.

[Wh1ms1]

I am a very touchy feely person...as evidenced by my last 2 careers...nursing and massage therapy. But I also love to be touched...massage especially.

[WolfyOne]

I'm a covers on, covers off person in the middle of the night. if I get to warm. I wake and have to push the covers off me until I cool down and then they go back on me.

[MsTinkerbelly]

I don't have any tattoos, and neither does my Kasey.

[legally_b10nde]

I like to use different bubble bath soaps

[Chad]

I have no tattoos, I am not a fan of them.

[clay]

I was a Firefighter for 3 years in my home state!!!

[girl_dee]

i do not like talking on the phone.....

:phonegab:

[Brisa]

I love chicken marsala :canadian:

[girl_dee]

i cannot stand turkey in any way shape or form, well maybe a smoked leg. I feel like a Viking when I eat one.

[Brisa]

I hate dark meat turkey

[Jesse]

I am not a fan of turkey.

I love most shellfish though.

[girl_dee]

I am not a fan of turkey.

me too! I love anything that comes from the sea. I grew up on crustaceans......

However, I did try octopus once and was not a fan.

[Blade]

I have never been hungry enough to eat liver or oysters

[girl_dee]

I have never been hungry enough to eat liver or oysters

i don't eat organs or much beef.

I love oysters, raw and chargrilled.

When i was a kid my father would shuck oysters by the sack, and we would only end up with a bowl full. My mother would make us chew gum so she would get some oysters!

[Chad]

I LOVE ice tea. I mostly drink black tea with peppermint but I also love peach and black tea. I drink a quart a day usually.

[MsTinkerbelly]

I drink my iced tea plain, no sugar or lemon.

[Wh1ms1]

I drink a lot of water, with an occasional cherry coke or mountain dew thrown in.

[girl_dee]

I have dyslexic tendencies.

I mix up:

left , right
yesterday, tomorrow

the most.

[PaPa]

It doesn't matter where I have lived but my house ALWAYS has an office in it. I think I have some sort of love for office supplies too. LOL!

[WolfyOne]

I'm a foodie, my mom taught all her kids to try everything at least once. She also kept a napkin nearby in case we wanted to spit it out, but always made us try.

[girl_dee]

I have a huge office supply fetishist.

[legally_b10nde]

[JDeere]

I only drink sweet ice tea....

[Violette]

I hate shopping!

Right there with you, sister!

[Violette]

I love love love Indian food.

[RockOn]

I have become truly obsessive with not wanting snakes any where near my dogs or on my property since I moved last summer to 2+ acres of mostly pine woods. DUH?? Move to pine woods, this is the way it is!

I have so much stress going on with concern for my babies ... it sometimes feels like I am going over the edge with it.

I know people are sick and tired of hearing about it. Believe me, I am sick and tired of it more than anyone can know. I have researched these shoulderless critters to the nth degree and back ... still doing more too!

It is my job to protect Kevie and Jennifer from copperheads. If I lived without pets, I would not give all these freaking snakes much thought.

I really am quite afraid of snakes. Even harmless ones!! On the news last night there was a story of a woman (lives in Tennessee) who was sleeping in her loft bedroom she could only get into with a ladder. She woke up to find a snake curled on her arm:blink::bolt: it was a rat snake but how on earth did it get there??!!!!?..the story never said:twitch:

[Kenna]

I love peppermint tea with honey

[Breathless]

I love icetea, prefer iced green tea with honey.. mmm
I have no fear of snakes, at all, I am more afraid that they will think I am going to hurt them and attack. When my ex husband told our daughter she couldn't have the homeless dog from the shelter that she wanted more than anything, but could have ANY other pet, I got her the snake she wanted instead. Ball point python. Beautiful creature.

[girl_dee]

I am generous to a fault I think.

[Chad]

I drink my ice tea straight without sweeteners or ice just cold.

I like to photograph snakes and will often take off running to give chase for a photo. I do not have non-domestic animals as pets.

I like to photograph all kinds of wildlife.

Oh, more than one sorry Ms. Dee.

[girl_dee]

I cannot stand Tea... Iced or otherwise.

[blueblackbird]

I'm a desert girl. I love monsoons and the smell of dust.

I know how to shoot an old school, medium format film camera. It's so old that it doesn't even use batteries -- it operates 100% manually :)

[GeorgiaMa'am]

I used to have a pet snake. She was lovely, and liked to play.

[Soft*Silver]

I do not like music past the 80s. Anything 90s or beyond, I click off unless its Tracy Chapman. Or Adele. (I do like real old time rock and roll but I almost never listen to it)

I have been verbally attacked for saying I would prefer not to listen to music in the car.

At home, I almost never listen to music. And when I do, its Tracy Chapman. Or maybe Adele or Bob Dylan.

On FB I click to block videos if music accompanies them. It ruins them for me.

And...I am tired of being told I am a freak for not liking music like most of the world. It doesnt make me a bad person. I am not crippled. I just dont like music, like some people dont like to dance. :|

[Gemme]

I love music, don't care for snakes AT ALL and like tea, both hot and cold, just fine.
