5 Things No One Would Know About You From BFP Alone

[Abigail Crabby]

I love onions - sometimes I'll fry up onions and that's all I have for dinner

I love liver - I'm a liver lover and I'm proud

I love pretty dresses - and have been collecting patterns for next spring, and have a real want to start sewing again.

I'd rather be alone than *hook up* to avoid being lonely

I may regret every moment I wasted of the last two years of my life -
but I can't change the past so I'm now focused on the future.

[NJFemmie]

I suffer from allergies all year long. Allergy meds don't help 100%, but it's saved me from getting severely sick for the last several+ years.

I'm not a big fan of onions. I "kind of" like them on some things, but they give me heartburn from hell. I do like how they smell when they're being cooked. On that note, there are many things that smell great when they're being cooked, but I don't like how they taste. I tend to think something's amiss between my nose, brain and taste buds.

Even though I don't like to eat certain things, I'll make them for Mare because I know She likes them. I'll just "pick them off" or make sure She gets double portions.

I've always been a little claustrophobic, but I think it's getting a bit worse with age. While we were vacationing in Myrtle Beach, the closed water slide freaked me out more than it normally would. What a #*@$&^ bummer.

I enjoy traveling and enjoy the fact that I've been doing more of it recently. We're planning another trip and I am stoked.

[AtLast]

Being crazy for someone and getting the same back is something I do miss, yet feel fortunate in knowing I have had this.

I enjoy conversations about the past with elderly people.

I love veggies and hate fruit.

One of my favorite things to do is cook for friends.... it's about nurturing...

I love to build things, but can get frustrated because I tend to be a perfectionist.

[Oneida]

1. My family is aching and hurting as my Mom continues to face cancer's cruel indignities.

2. I don't believe that Mercury's retrograde affects my life at all...I prefer to blame everything on PMS. I can really get my arms around that one.

3. This is my favorite place to be:

4. My dog has kennel cough.

5. It feels good to smell Autumn coming.

[Spoon]

1. I'm a ghoul and a romantic. My decorating style is a mix of bohemian/hippy and fifteen year old male gorehound; with several thousand books and DVDs thrown in.

2. I have a list of people I want to poleaxe before I die. Kate Gosselin currently tops the list.

3. I wear an analog wristwatch at all times.

4. I once beat up a skinhead. It's the only time I've ever been arrested.

5. Due to an illness, I have no depth perceptions and therefore cannot drive.

[DamonK]

It is hard for me to remain respectful when someone is disrespecting me. I will, however, remain respectful because I won't stoop to their level.

Pride, honor, and integrity mean everything to me. If you don't have those, I don't want you in my life.

I would kill to protect those I love.

In my line of work, you see a lot of death. You never forget a single one. I can see all of their faces. However, it doesn't devastate me like it once did. Now, I realize it was probably best.

When we had a critical situation at work, I was the idiot that tried to wander off. However, I didn't know there was something bad going on, and once told, I did as told.

[Spirit Dancer]

well even I didn't know this first one
high strung~ when it come to those I love
I enjoy canning jams
Quilting relaxes me
I read 3-4 books a week
TV take it or leave it.

[Boots13]

1. I feared losing a finger to the cold on this last climb.

2. And as long as it wasnt my trigger finger, I continued weighing the risk/benefit up until my departure

3. But then I feared never, ever playing my guitar again, if I did lose a digit.

4. So I played and played and played my every waking moment remembering songs I hadnt played in ages.

5. But bruised the tips of my left hand fingers so badly in the process of playing that they were sore for the duration of my climb.

bonus
6. The bruises, a constant reminder to keep my hands covered, it wasnt ok to sacrifice a finger for a climb... a toe perhaps, but not a finger...

[Lynn]

I like to be around bright people, but I don't like to spend a lot of time intellectually grinding.

Yelling bothers me. I don't' see the need.

I tend to be non-judgmental, but there is a point when I've had enough of the whining and want to see some action.

I adore garlic anything. Today's treat was a garlic mayonnaise served with chicken kebab at a Middle Eastern restaurant.

My guilty pleasure is watching the gay and lesbian couples on HGTV. Right now, a cute butch-femme couple is house hunting. So sweet.

[Soft*Silver]

my favorite kind of dress to wear is a navy blue with white polka dot, with a red or yellow belt...and pearls.

I am having my surgery in a city away from where I live and none of my family nor friends can come visit me while I am in there. I am kinda sad about that

I cant sew. I do want to learn tho

I love plastic jewelry from the 1940s and 50s

If I truly believed I could never have another horse in my life someday I would not want to leave my bed.

[Write14u]

1. My chihuahuas bark at everything that moves. They are going nutso right now over what seems to be some kind of work going on either in the complex hallway or the apartment above us.
2. I have become addicted to Phineas & Ferb. (blast you Perry the platypus!!!)
3. I love to procrastinate. I work better under deadline pressure.
4. I sorely need a vacation.
5. I'm going to the state fair tomorrow night. I hear it's impressive.

[Arwen]

1. I actually laugh at the stupid, punny jokes on the Popsicle sticks.
2. I have a glove fetish.
3. I have petted wild anoles and lived to talk about it.
4. I think I'm funny so I laugh at my own silly jokes.
5. I think there were thirteen Zodiac signs originally.
   

[bigbutchmistie]

I dont trust people as a general rule .

Having said that its really hard taking someone for their word right now and giving it a chance, and not judging by my past experiences.

I refuse to let the past bad relationships affect something great with someone else.

I have bad anxiety when seeing someone new or talking with someone new.

I have no patience at all. So reaching in myself to find some is a new task each day.

[diamondrose]

If I put my glasses somewhere and forget where I put them, I need help finding them, beacuse I can't see well enough to find them

I am always seeking the good of every situation.

I always toss out my gum before I get home.

I have watched Television once in the last two months

I am stressed out about my finals, yet staying positive.

Mysterious.

[Soft*Silver]

1. I am petrified of dating again. I seriously get nauseated and extremely anxious when someone shows interest. Just when I thought I had it all worked through, it has come back again, more severe than it had been in the past. I was terribly hurt in two consecutive relationships in the past decade and I am more than a little gun shy. Phobic is the best word that comes to mind.

2. I love going to zoos! I use to work in one, in landscaping so I have a whole other perspective when I go to a zoo. I use to know all kinds of interesting facts about each species and sounded like a tour guide when I would go with someone. I cant wait for grandkids so I can go to bunches of zoos with them!

3. lemon is one of my favorite flavors.

4. I have eaten squirrel meat. I was not impressed.

5. I am quite shy and introverted personally but for work, I am an extrovert and very at ease with people individually and in a group

[JakeTulane]

1. I collect Monopoly games. I have about 35 of them so far, in various themes. I have loved the game since I was 8 years old.

2. I collect Johnny West toys by Marx. I used to play with them when I was little and pretend I was one of the cowboys on the horse.

3. I am very nostalgic. (see #1 and #2). laughs.

4. I love My family with all My heart and would do anything for them. Especially My Mom.

5. I have been likened to an onion and a porcupine. The onion for the layers, the porcupine for My (sometimes) grumpy nature. However, once you get to know Me and take the time to get through the quills and delve into the layers, I believe you will find it was a worthwhile journey.

[Venus007]

1. Sometimes I miss little intricacies in relationships, like picking up on the fact that sometimes people DO want you to pry a little when they answer a question I figure they will tell me if they want to tell me and move on, sometimes resulting in hurt feelings on their part and confusion on mine.

2. If left to my own devices I believe I would end up being a hermit. Not because I don't love my friends but because by the time I looked up and noticed I wanted to be around people, the relationships would have withered from lack of cultivation. This is why I schedule things on my calendar like "call friends"

3. When I changed fields from being a health care compliance auditor to a professor I had a hard time with deciding how to act at work with colleagues. I have made a chart that shows what is considered "socially appropriate behavior" and I work it like a formula. Again if left to my own devices I would ignore them and be viewed as weird and socially inept which would not only make me feel awkward (as I have no ill will toward them) but also hurt my promotion opportunities thus my financial opportunities.

4. Apparently I am good at being social at work because I am generally well liked and people think I am outgoing and gregarious. I wonder if they would think the same if they knew I had to create a formula to do it.

5. When I was a young adult,I became obsessed with 'normal' and read about social interactions, manners, proxemics, culture and psychology to figure out how to relate to people. When in doubt I default to manners and what is studied to be culturally appropriate, it usually works

Before almost dying of meningitis a few years ago I had a photgraphic memory. I could remember everything. Now, I cant remember five minutes ago half of the time. Thankful to be alive.

I love watching t.v. I watch alot of it.

When I was growing up I wanted to be a criminal state attorney. Now Im a Resort Coordinator and love my job.

Ive never flown. However, I wanna get married on the beach in Hawaii somewhere...

Im very romantic. And love the little things of romance.
