    I have a bag of sunscreen in my trunk. Not a bottle...........a bag. When I go to the beach I have different types for different parts of my body. My friends tease me, and my kids say "Mom got any 15?" but I always tan just enough and have stopped the damage to my skin.

    I need spray for my back, lotion for my arms and legs, greasless for my face and 50 for my chest :wink: By the time I am thru applying my tanning regime, it is time to go home!:laugh:

    I am a parront to two macaws...

    I had a pair of amazon parrots. One day my husband had too much to drink and decided to show off to his friends how friendly my blue front parrot was by sticking it's head in his mouth. Needless to say parrot freaked out and bit my husband in the back of his tongue. His tongue swelled up so much he could barely talk. He had to go to the doctors and explain what happened. The doctor just laughed and said "you should have cooked it before you tried to eat it." :laugh:

    OMG!! THAT is funny!!!

    Right on!
    Don't you just love how your hair responds? Doesn't have to deal with those nasty detergents and additives.

    i decided to learn russian but didnt get past learning the alphabet So, that means i can read the words but i have no idea what they mean lol.

    That is so awesome. When I was in High School my step sister and I would pass notes to each other using the Russian alphabet so no one else could read them.

    I took two years of Russian and spent 6 weeks in Russia one summer about 7 years ago but I've forgotten most of what I knew. I really want to get back into it again though.

    Okay this one is kind of embarrassing. I still suck my thumb from time to time when I get stressed out. I don't do it in front of friends though and not as often as I've gotten older.

    Me too! & I can curl my thumbs behind the back knuckle of my pointer fingers on both hands.
    I can move my little toe without moving any other toes.

    Oh my god. So can I. Both feet? You are the only other person I have ever heard of who can do that.

  • My cat decapitated him....not cool. :( He was just a baby....

    Yeah. Cats don't really play well with other species. Except people.

    My cats must the exception to that rule. I have two bearded dragons, and one of my cats has slept in their tank off an on since she was a kitten, and I have 8 birds that the cats never mess with. Impressive since the birds and cats share our back room and the birds aren't caged.

    1. I met Michael Buble when he came to Australia and couldn't resist a grope.
    2. I'm scared of January as terrible things happen: my husband was diagnosed with cancer on 2nd January 07, my son was diagnosed with cancer on 9th January 10 and this January I ran over and killed my beloved cat!
    3. My eyes go different colours depending on my mood, green to grey.
    4. My son has learning difficulties, epilepsy and ADD but has a beautiful voice and is at a performing arts university studying to be an opera singer.

    I can watch them saw a man's leg off, or open up the chest of a person and think "how amazing" but as soon as they bring out a needle I change the channel.

    I was awake during my heart :heart: surgery, watched the entire thing, including the fluroscope with the threads and occluder being put into my heart..............but nearly passed out the next day when the nurse didn't warn me she was giving me a shot!! :laugh:

    My husband made me a bet on the first night we met that I'd be engaged or married within the year (I was recently divorced...) 11 months later, I lost that bet. :heart:

    i don't worry about locking my door.
    streetwalking thugs don't scare me (i think the second two are because i used to live in the country, where we had REAL problems like wild coyotes)
    i've never eaten a big mac.
    i fell in love with my husband when i was 15 years old.
    i am the only blood cousin in my generation (on my dad's side) to get pregnant AFTER getting married.
    i am the only female in my husband's nuclear family to get married before having kids (his mom had him and was pregnant at her wedding, and two of his sisters have children out of wedlock)
    my parents and my sister are all college dropouts, but i got my first degree when i was 19 years old. and i want at least 1 more.

    and, of course, my 'claim to fame'. . .i used to work with A'keiba Burrell (MC Hammer's firstborn child) before she did that MTV show, Rock the Cradle. she taught me some harmonies to the sara bareilles tune Love Song.
  • I had a reoccurring dream about Doogie Howser when I was younger. I was completely in love with him and could not wait to fall asleep at night to dream about him :blushing:

    Also, when I am at friends house and use their restroom, if the roll is under, I fix it as it should always be over..lol

    LOL!!! I know many a marriage that was nearly ruined over which way the TP roll is supposed to go. And yes, you are correct, it should roll off the top! :D

    TP ALWAYS unrolls from under the roll!

    I've delivered 5 babies and no of them were my children! But I did cut my daughter's cord!
