ok, lets get to know you!

since there is a lot of new faces around here, or old faces coming back I am making this poll.

How did you get your screen name? is it your first?

What branch are you affiliated with?

Do you have a specific Starbucks order? what is it?

What's your favorite meal?

Do you like getting pedicures?

Whats your sign? Do you identify with it?

When you were little (or now) did you go through a "purple" phase (favorite color being purple)?

Cats/Dogs/other?

Something that makes you smile?

Wanna make a bet when we're getting orders? (DH has been "expecting" them for most the summer. we keep hearing they are "coming soon", and now the AFPC guy says "this week or next" the training DH is supposed to start is the first week of Nov, so we should move in Oct!)

(DH has been "expecting" them for most the summer. we keep hearing they are "coming soon", and now the AFPC guy says "this week or next" the training DH is supposed to start is the first week of Nov, so we should move in Oct!) I'm betting not until sometime in Sept, because I want to put in my notice at work by Sept 1, so I can be done by Sept 30 (professional curtesy for notice in my position at work is one month)

    When you were little (or now) did you go through a "purple" phase (favorite color being purple)?- Holy hell, yes I did. I still love purple, but it took over my life when I was a teen. Does this mean something? lol Shrink me!

    Nothing, I guess. I just heard once that every girl goes through a purple phase, so I am just asking.

    imageKiller Cupcake:

    Wanna make a bet when we're getting orders? It's looking like our next orders will be EAS orders in 2014.

    no, when is DH getting his orders?

  • How did you get your screen name? is it your first? I ramble, so it seemed fitting.

DH is a MarineDo you have a specific Starbucks order? what is it? I bounce around, but generally I drink tea or iced coffee... sometimes a caramel latte with soy if I'm feeling feisty.What's your favorite meal? Oh dear lord... I love lasagna, and this tuna dinner my dad makes that I've never learned how to perfect. Do you like getting pedicures? I've never had one! Whats your sign? Do you identify with it? I'm a gemini, and I think it fits me well. Ha! When you were little (or now) did you go through a "purple" phase (favorite color being purple)? I am currently *in* my purple phase! Cats/Dogs/other?

    Do you like getting pedicures?  Love them.  But (maybe TMI) I have "black and blue toenail" on one of my big toes from soccer and it's probably going to fall off, so I'm avoiding pedicures right now.  Although I really need one.

    Whats your sign? Do you identify with it?  Virgo.  I'm told it fits me perfectly.

    When you were little (or now) did you go through a "purple" phase (favorite color being purple)?  I don't think so.  I like purple now, but it's not my favorite.  My mom's favorite color was always purple though. 

    Cats/Dogs/other?  Dogs.  We have a 5 y/o Boston Terrier.

    Something that makes you smile? Law & Order SVU marathons.

    Wanna make a bet when we're getting orders? (DH has been "expecting" them for most the summer. we keep hearing they are "coming soon", and now the AFPC guy says "this week or next" the training DH is supposed to start is the first week of Nov, so we should move in Oct!)  I'm guessing 1Oct, since they are probably going to wait for the new fiscal year.  I hope it's sooner though.
