5 Things No One Would Know About You From BFP Alone

* I like to sleep with my room icy cold with a fan going but I also must have a fluffy comforter to go with it.

* When Im feeling down, I like to sit in the middle of my bed in a ratty old t-shirt and panties with my big orange dog, trash tv, trashy internet, and a giant glass of tea (unsweet please!) until I feel better.

* I have more cosmetics and junk jewelry than should be allowed.

* When Gracie feels needy, she likes to sit beside me and makes me hold her paw. I sometimes reach out for her paw when *I* am feeling needy. She always happily obliges and this is only one of the reasons why she is the greatest dog EVER.

* Im a tiny bit overly fascinated with peacock feathers.

sometimes the fear of my pain is so large and loud I feel very small in it and fear I will literally be swallowed up in it and have to live like this or worse, for the rest of my life. I tell no one in my real life about this fear...

sometimes I say the wrong thing. If what I said hurts someone, I am devastated. It physically pains me if I hurt someone...

I love pop beads and wish to god I had a whole bunch of them. I would wear them often...

I have forgotten what it is like to kiss. This is a good thing. I dont expect it to last forever but it needed to happen so I could have a bank slate...

the longer I am single, the less lonely I am. And the less lonely I am, the more consideration i am giving to dating again.

This is my first post here. I thought I'd post here as a way of introducing myself, so here goes...

1. I once won second place on an Olivia Halloween Cruise for my all-time favorite costume: "The little Dutch Boy who Stuck his Finger in the Dyke." The audience roared, and had they been the ones to vote, I'd have definitely taken first. The judges went for cute, half-naked femme over funny butch. (hell, I'd have voted for her too)
2. I was 6 feet tall as a freshman in high school after having shot up 6 inches in a year and a half -- so fast my bones hurt. Although I love my height, I don't think of myself as tall and am still somewhat surprised when people mention my height.
3. I always have salsa in the fridge and think that you can never have too much cilantro. Ever.
4. I usually think that I can do anything, whether or not I've actually ever done it before. I once talked my way into a job cooking for one of the top 10 restaurants in Boston, having never actually cooked in a restaurant in my life. It was an amazing experience (and a funny story, ask me about it sometime).
5. I'm extraordinarily lucky to have such an amazing family. Especially my Mom, who is an incredible loving and giving woman. I hear other's stories and honestly don't know how I got to be so fortunate, but thank the Universe often.

I'm looking forward to meeting some new friends here. Thanks for creating such a great community.

• I have a magazine addiction. I subscribe to more magazines than I can count, and don't have time to read them all.

• I have chronic plantar fasciitis in both feet, which means they hurt most of the time. Luckily, wearing heels is actually helpful for this condition!

• I have jars of sea glass all over my house.

• I love old houses, and even though my house is new construction, I still subscribe to Old House Journal. I frequently go to real estate open houses just to see the insides of old homes. (Note: attending such open houses can be dangerous... I recently fell head over heels in love with a house as I walked through it... *sigh*)

• I'm terrified of heights, to the point where I can get panicky if a movie I'm watching shows the actor's perspective as he looks over the side of a tall building...
