Party pooper!!! :grumble: Just kidding.. you're NOT a party pooper. This I know for sure.

Wellllllll I don't know if it's nerdy but I go into a crack like high when I decorate cakes. I do it as a hobby and really enjoy it. It's therapeutic.

Here's my favorite one that I've made thus far:


Story is this is an inside joke because my dad has always loved UFO things and a while back I took my dad to watch "Battle L.A", which he HATED. He said it was "too much bullets" and that it wouldn't happen like that if there were aliens attacking. (my dad has a sweet accent and doesn't say "many", he says "much".) Everytime we talk on the phone he asks me if I've seen the dumb movie again and cracks jokes about it. He loved loved loved his cake and said he didn't want to cut it.

Wow! Amazing! :flowerforyou:

The more I look at this thread, the more I want cake.

I like weird/crazy/uncommon stuff in music/videos or art in general... So yeah, definitely not mainstream.

So much more stuff... If only you knew the real power of madness! :laugh:

Also like composing electronic music and especially using synths.
Best synth I've ever bought is the one shown in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQfljbdDI_o
(wish I had half the talent of this guy )

I like a wide variety of activities... sports (football, hockey, baseball), and even when I was heavier I always liked outdoor activities (camping, hiking, swimming, running, biking, etc). At the same time, I can be a bit of a homebody, reading/gardening and, when I have time, I looooove to try out new recipes. Doesn't happen as much now that I'm a single mom. Finally, I tend to plan a lot of social events (mainly because that's the best way to ensure they're planned such that my little one can tag along).

I'm so excited people are responding! It's so interesting to me to see how people tick and what different things we all find interesting

I'm silly :embarassed:

No, you're sweet

I don't listen to it often, but I have a huge nostalgia for 70/80s reggae/dub music which I grew up listening to on the radio in Jamaica. My parents went there when I was 5 and they were only in their mid 20s, very young and idealistic. It was a time of huge political and cultural change which was reflected in much of the music. We were right in the middle of it all. Because of the political instability, it was quite dangerous at times but for me as a child it was all a huge, exciting adventure :happy:

Too many faves to post but here are a couple:

Playing guitar, only started a year ago and its been awesome learning! Pretty much self taught, my fav song I've learnt so far is Everlong by the Foo FIghters!

I enjoy football (am a Redskins fan ~ yea, I know, I know...). Love to cook. Am currently on a mission to learn how to cook healthier (am guilty of being a comfort food cook). Only thing I'm not messing with is my italian dishes as they are my italian grandmother's recipes and some things are just forbidden to change!

Enjoy getting down and dirty in the garden. I write custom poetry for people for invitations, graduations, birthdays, anniversaries, etc. Have song writing aspirations and am (very slowly) teaching myself how to play piano. Have very eclectic tastes in music, including musicals and choral performances. Love the sound of a gospel choir! All about harmony baby!! Huge fan of live music.

Like to read, hang out with my dog, my friends and with my son when he is home from college. My son's friends call me "Woprah", the white Oprah, as they believe I'm easy to talk to and have given them some sound advice over the years. Quite the compliment coming from 17-18 year old teenage boys. lol

Look fussier than I actually am (girly girl), always treat others the way I wish to be treated and do crave a good cheeseburger once in awhile!
