    1) I used to be a snake handler at a wildlife reserve in high school
    2) My semi-secret guilty pleasure is video games (Starcraft II & Farmville are current favourites)
    3) I'm claustrophobic
    4) I have a weakness for potato chips, but recently found Kettle Brand Baked Sea Salt & Malt Vinegar Chips (476cal/120g bag!)
    5) My big toes are as long as my thumbs.

    1. My husband is in the Army and I am SO proud of him and support him 100%, but I personally don't really like the large ACU handbags/diaperbags/accessories/etc, have large stickers planted in multiple places on my car, or wear "Proud Army Wife" logoed clothing anywhere. Not that there's anything "wrong" with it. I'm just not that girl (I also don't wear logos from clothing lines on any of my stuff... I just can't do it).

    Right there with you on that one! My dad is still in, about to retire, and I've always been proud just never like out loud about it. It's a job, just like most anything else (well, almost...). I like to show my pride in other ways. Such as packing up my entire house in a month and moving with my lovely husband to AZ! WOOOOOOO!!!!! HOOAH! :tongue:

    LOL We personally have only been to one duty station, but like you I choose to support my husband in other ways rather than spending $60-100+ on a handbag made to match him. :huh:

    Mine too! I always have to try both shoes on in a pair and walk around a bunch just to make sure they dont fall off my left foot or constrict my right one too much.

    1. My father's name is Donald Wayne, my brother's name is Wayne Donald, and all 3 of my girls have a "Kuh" and D name but I swear I didn't realize it when I named them (Carrie Dawn, Kenzie Danae & Kaitlyn Dee).

    2. I was Homecoming Princess my Junior Year and couldn't imagine why at the time because I didn't think I was even pretty. Now I'm 48 and I WISH I looked like that! LOL

    3. I secretly have always wanted to play Maria Von Trapp in the Sound of Music but am terrified that if I tried out now they would cast me as the heavy-set Nun singing "Climb Every Mountain"!

    4. My philosophy in life has always been that the two most important things in life are family and education. I currently work as the Executive Director of an adoption agency teaching potential parents what they need to know to adopt and create a family. Life is funny that way when it takes you literally and leads you there.

    5. I always thought I would only have 2 children at most. I had 5 and the last came 3 years AFTER the vasectomy! I also have 2 step-sons, 4 grandchildren and all of my children's friends call me mom and their children call me grandma (I call them all my "koolaid kids"). My adoptive parents send me pictures of the children they have adopted with my help that hang on my wall next to my own children and "koolaid kids" also.

    1. I have read all of the Twilight books simply to prove a point (the point was that I would still think they suck and are insulting to women after reading them - my opinion did not change)

    2. I *HATE* 50 Shades of Grey because 1) It's Twilight Fanfic. 2) It's a horrible representation of BDSM 3) Grey is an abusive asshat and what'sherface has battered wife syndrome.

    3. I named my dog after Belladonna Took (Bilbo's aunt)

    4. I think Civil War: The Confession is actually a love letter from Tony to Steve.

    5. I *HATE* the ending of the first Ironman because it is just...wrong, it's so very wrong. There is much hilarity in Steve/Captain America not knowing Tony and Ironman are the same person.

    1. I won't turn the lights off in my house if no one else is home.

    4. Three of my four children have the same birthdate - seven years apart.

    I had my first daughter when I was 16 and then had a total of 4 daughters by the time I was 21 (yes, with the same person, married him at 16, finally divorced him at 29)

    I'm 43, have a 5 year old grand daughter and am raising her ( my oldest daughter didn't get into the whole taking care of your child thing... But my other 3 daughters are amazing young women!)

    Years ago, I worked for an airline in Colorado and learned to de-ice an airplane

    I LOVE thunderstorms

    I'm an excellent cook. Cooking and cleaning are stress relievers for me (now, exercise as well)

    1. I chew on ice constantly throughout the day.
    2. I HATE the word fine. I think it is a passive aggressive non-word.
    3. All of the clothes in my closet and the kids’ closets are color coordinated and in rainbow order, with whites at the beginning and black at the end.
    4.I love football. Go Eagles!!
    5. I am really bad with follow through. I have great ideas but I lose interest once I start to execute them.

    I hate that I read this because I find #3 to be a good idea and I am going to go home and fix the closet to be in rainbow order. My husband and kids will roll their eyes at me but I don't care

    1. I have worked with Tim Gunn from Project Runway. He's very short and very funny.

    2. I am obsessed with all things Japanese.. (Lived there for a few years)

    3. I love reggae music.

    4. I cannot watch any of the "Final Destination" movies. They totally freak me out, though I love horror movies.

    5. Tattoos are a huge turn on, whether on a man or a women.

    1) I'm terribly aware of my own intelligence level and I'm always self conscious about it. Which is probably a good thing because I'm always trying to learn.

    2) I've been biting my fingernails for the majority of my life. To the point where my hands bleed.

    3) I'm probably more in love with my wife now than I was when we met...I think about her pretty much all day long. 50% of the time its about how much I love her...50% of the time its fantasizing about things I'd like to do to/with her. I also don't think I've ever really told her that.

    4) I listen to hip-hop music constantly. I like other types as well but I've loved hip hop for 20+ years. I can talk about it all day long if I needed to and I would enjoy every single minute of it.

    5) Sometimes I feel ok with being fat. Like I'm satisfied with it. Other times I hate myself for it.


    Call your wife immediately and tell her. All wives would love to hear this.

    Probably won't call her right now since I'm at work (MFP is much more stealth than my cell phone) but I may tell her later.
