Tell Me Something Surprising About Yourself

I haven't used shampoo or conditioner since December.

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 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!!!

Dreads?

Baking Soda and Vinegar : )

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

I serenaded Henry Kissinger.

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.

We have a Catalina Macaw (hybrid of Scarlet and Blue and Gold)
2 Sun Conures, a Sun Cheek Conure
1 Painted Conure
1 Quaker
1 White Bellied Caique
1 Black Caped Caique

Never tried to put the Macaw's head in my mouth. My white bellied Caique like to try to clean our teeth though.

My husband and I have been together since I was 13 & he was 16 - we've only dated/been with each other
I can wiggle my ears
I don't like lettuce or salad dressing (thankfully I like spinach)
I've been a teacher for 15 years but never graduated college

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.

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 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:

Hair grosses me out (other peoples)....

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.

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!

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!

i cry when i hear the national anthem.

for me, it's Taps. i bawl. which means i always cry on my birthday, cuz i was born on Veteran's day.
