    I imagine plants having feelings. :flowerforyou:

    That I'm actually pretty fit. I'm still overweight, so to people who don't know me that's all they see. I've blown a few of my college classmates away when I'm all like "yeah, I ran 10 miles today". :happy:

    That I have 22 tattoos (you see none of them) & have experience doing them as well.

    Also I speed read & retain 75% or more of what I read (I can finish 2 - 350+ books in a day & write you a report on each) but I'm dyslexic and nearly blind.

    That I am childfree by choice and generally not a fan of spending time with children (especially babies).

    No I don't hate them. But there's nothing about me that would suggest that I am hardcore, militant-serious about NEVER becoming a parent ever, never would have dated a parent, and so on...

    That's how I felt... and then I had two of my own. However, as much as I love my kids, I still shy away when someone tries to hand me a baby, saying, "Isn't he/she/it cute?" I try not to respond, "I like puppies."

    ETA: MY kids.... just my kids. :happy:


    Me too. I was not going to have any kids, then at the age of 28, I had my only child. I only have patience and tolerance for my child, nobody else's lol.

    Just keep reminding yourselves that the grandkids will be worth it (they are too)

    "If I had known how wonderful it would be to have grandchildren, I'd have had them first."
    -Lois Wyse

    that's actually kind of offensive. Like telling a gay man that being with a woman is worth it or something. Dafuq

    That I have a tattoo with the f word in it. And that I had multiple body piercings. Everyone, including all my daycare clients, think I am just this typical run of the mill girl next door type.

    Good luck!!! That's SUPER cool!!

    I don't really write...but I've had these characters in my head for 13 years for a young adult novel and someday maybe I will churn it out, if only for my own amusement :-)

    Let's see:
    - That I'm really 41, I keep being told that I look like I'm maybe 30
    - I have a CCW license and I do carry a gun
    - I am a professional bellydancer in spite of the fact that I am not thin at all
    - I have never had a boyfriend or been in love (not for a lack of effort on my part, but for the lack of interest on the part of the male population)
    - I am a shy introvert, especially with men (may be part of the above problem)

    I took after my dad and have a crazy amount of grey hair for my age so I colour it every 4-6 weeks.

    I love hard rock and metal, totally don't look it.

    I am a very shy person.

    I rarely ever drink.

    I am a coffee snob.

    Oh and most people are shocked to find out that I am not really a cat.

    -Most people tend to think I like newer rock music, or punk type of stuff but I actually only listen to 60's, 70's, ad 80's - I like classic rock.
    -I am actually pretty shy sometimes
    -I'm 24 (I think I look my age, but people seem to think I am younger)
