"About Me", 1-25

1. I am 31 years old.
2. My natural hair color is medium ash blond.
3. I have thick and wavy hair that I am always wearing up in a pony tail or twist.
4. I am 5' 2".
5. I am near sighted and I have been wearing glasses since elementary school. I hate contact lenses.
6. My sun sign is Capricorn, Aquarius rising, moon in Scorpio. That makes me irreverent, unconventional and controlling, :p
7. I grew up in upstate New York, in a small town called Duanesburg. We didn't even have cable TV, so I watched a lot of Thundercats, Little House on the Prairie, and recorded movies.
8. I can recite The Neverending Story and A Christmas Story word for word. How pathetic is that?
9. My world view was created around TV shows. Yep, for a long time my world view was warped and skewed.
10. I wasn't allowed to watch MacGyver because my ex step dad was a gun obsessed retard. Now I watch the reruns.
11. I love Richard Dean Anderson!
12. I love Stargate and other Science fiction TV shows like Dr Who and Battlestar Gallactica. I still love TV!
13. I love to read and always have. I like science fiction, fantasy, time travel romance, classics, mysteries, Grisham novels, and vampire novels.
14. My step family used to tease me a lot. They were just like that. I wasn't singled out or any thing. They were just cruel like that to everyone no matter what.
15. I thought I was an ugly child and that no one would ever want to marry me because I was so disgusting. My step family teased me relentlessly because they didn't understand that I hated myself, not boys. My protests only made it worse.
16. I still thought I was ugly in high school when I had lots of boyfriends.
17. When I was 15 our family was uprooted and planted in Sidney MT. I suffered from culture shock! I thought knew I was better than every one else. Guess how that turned out?
18. I was a cheerleader for one year in high school.
19. I moved out my senior year. I didn't get along to well with my mom, but that's not why I left. It was over a stupid guy that I later dumped for some hot guy I met in 94. I almost didn't graduate!
20. I am married and have been since 1996. We met on July 2, 1994 (the "hot guy"), just after I graduated high school. He still had two years to go! We have four children, Austin 95, Tessa 97, Bruce 05, and Brandy 06.
21. What's that they say about rebound relationships? They're full of shit. We've been together for 12 1/2 years now!
22. Bruce is named after my father who passed away about 4 years ago. Brandy is named after a street, and the oldest two after TV characters.
23. Sometimes I really miss my father and I get very sad. Thinking about Steve Irwin makes me even sadder and I start to cry.
24. My dad visited me the other day (December 29th) on my birthday. He came to me in a dream and asked me if I wanted to move to California; that's where I was born. This isn't the first time he has visited me either. I enjoy his visits. It's nice to know he is looking out for me.
25. It is thundering and raining outside right now, and it is distracting me. Chantz really likes thunderstorms. And I do mean that in a naughty way! :p
