1. Once a boifriend broke up with me in order to be with a woman named Jenica. I was so jealous and thought, "If only I'd been named Jenica I'd be the unique and special one."

2. Tonight I was at a small dinner party at my brother, Dave, and his husband, Jan's, apartment, and we were having a competition where each person must choose three words to google with quotes around the phrase, and the winner is the one with the fewest number of hits. BUT the catch is that you must get at least one hit or you're out of the game entirely. I won! I chose "blissed out beaver" and a single hit came up (Google if you're curious what it was- it wasn't porn!). My brother came in second with "passion triple sec" (45 hits).

3. I have nighttime insomnia, middle of the night insomnia, and morning insomnia. And that's even with having gone caffeine-free for over 3 years! My mom said I have been like that since I was a baby. My husbutch sleeps like a log. I'm envious!

4. I don't know how I dated femmes for so long without realizing...

5. Once as a teenager I cooked chicken pot pies for my parents that had individual dough handles like a basket. I felt so proud!

1) I cant make jello. I dont know why. I keep trying. It doesnt settle. How hard is it? Simple. I just cant do it.

2) I just broke my mailbox. It had ice all over it. Now it will never close, ice or no ice.

4) I have less financially now than I ever have had but I feel like I have more now than I ever have had

5) sometimes the kindness of another person is all it takes to change a life....

4. I am learning that I "don't owe anyone pretty"
5. I love stupid little kid jokes . . . .


e.g. What did the momma buffalo say to the baby buffalo when he headed out for his first day of school?
Bye son!

Which is more satisfying, an Earth rock or a Moon rock?
A Moon rock because it is a little meteor

**NOTE: for them to make sense and to amuse your animals/significant other/friends and family say em out loud. . .

1. I sit around in my pajamas too much.

2. I'm going back to school to be a nurse practitioner, and I'm really excited about this.

3. It may take seven years or more. I'm not excited about that, as I am now 50. But, what the heck.

4. I try to find scents I like and will use. But, I'd rather just be clean and have no special scent.

5. I've gotten into figuring out how to make my favorite foods in a healthier way. Last effort was jambalaya, and it was a rousing success.

I like hors d'oeuvres or amuse-bouche more than dinner.
History fascinates me.
Weightlifting is my sport.
I'd like to finish fiction I'm working on; I never feel well enough to write.
I'm a great designer, but not a good artist. They're not the same.

1. I seem to be less concerned about germs and sharing things like forks and toothbrushes than most people.

2. I'm not afraid of spiders or mice. Or snakes. I'm not fond of rats, though.

3. I love to eat out.

4. Getting manicures is fun, but pedicures are embarassing and uncomfortable (although I have them anyway, from time to time).

5. We have a mole in the basement. I'm trying to catch him in a no-kill trap baited with peanut butter. Unfortunately, it appears that he enjoys the cat food and has established a nest under the water heater. Smart mole.
