Re: Ask me anything

  • imagesarack:
    what is your favorite food?

    I like lots of things!  Italian, Thai, french fries, chocolate.

    Worst trait about yourself?

    I can be mean sometimes.  I hold things in and then sometimes I say something really mean or blow up.  And I might be a little full of myself sometimes.

    what is your favorite thing about h?

    He's so laid back and chill, which balances me out.  And he genuinely loves me just the way I am, good, bad, whatever.

    do you rent or own?

    Own.  Well, I have a mortgage.  The bank owns and I owe them more than it's worth.  Stupid economy!

  • We were trying to avoid for a while.  Now, we're sort of not not trying?  It's been 2 months.  I'm trying to not care b/c if I'm "trying" I will become an obsessive crazy person.  And I can't help but keep going back and forth of reasons to wait just a few more months.  It's scary!  I hope it just happens when we're not thinking too hard about it.

    does it bug you or h that you're the bread winner?

    I don't think so.  Now that DH is working and contributing, I'm happy and he feels good.  But, when he wasn't working, it did cause problems.  Not so much about the money, but me resenting that I felt like I had all the burden and him being depressed (and then lazy) about not working.  We're trying to set aside what he makes for a baby, so he's contributing and feels good about that goal.

  • I love a whole wheat pankake w/ bananas and macadamia nuts.  Or blueberries, or plain.  DH loves the Snoqualamie brand, yummy!

  • If you drop food on the floor and it looks ok will you eat it still?
  • imageuwhuskygirl:
    Any tattoos or non-visible piercings?

    Nope, just my ears.  I have diamond hoops and diamond studs, but I can't wear both, so I've been thinking about getting a second hole.

    I've thought about tattoos too, but it has to be perfect b/c it's forever.  I'd like to get something w/ DH, but he doesn't want to. So, I probably won't ever get one.

  • imagesarack:
    why don't you eat pork or beef?

    I was a strict vegetarian since I was 13.  No fish, chicken broth, anything.  After DH and feeling like I wasn't getting enough protein, I started slowly eating chicken and fish about 5 or 6 years ago.  Now, I eat chicken and fish, but I haven't worked in pork or beef or anything else.  I can't imagine ever eating beef.

  • imagesarack:
    when you have a baby, are you hoping for a girl or boy?

    For a long time, I wanted a boy first.  I think I'm leaning towards a girl now.  But, I want both.  I think DH and I both would be equally happy with either.

  • imagesarack:
    baby names?

    Boy:

    Mateas (Muh-TAYE-us) DHname
    Kai or Kyan DHname
    I also like Nico, but DH is not a fan.

    Girl:

    Nyah MILname
    Milona (Mil-ah-na) Mae (this is combo of our four grandmother's names)
    I also like Mila, but DH is not a fan.  I liked Malea, but I think it'll be too popular now.

    Or, maybe something totally different

  • imagesarack:
    do you have wedding pictures in your house?

    I have two.  DH's "brother" gave us a really nice engraved frame, so there is one in there on an endtable.  And another small one on another end table.  But, I have a lot more that we haven't hung or framed.  None in my office yet.  And I want to get a canvas one for the bedroom.

    I don't know!  I like Red Robin's.  But I like most of them.

    If you drop food on the floor and it looks ok will you eat it still?

    Depends on what it is.  And what floor.  If it's something solid in my house, sure.  But on the street or something wet or sticky, no.

  • imagesarack:

    so who do you think you'd get along most with irl?

    I think I have things in common w/ you, Legalbrit, and some others that I can't remember screen names.  Sometimes it's a post or a comment, but I don't always remember who said it.

    imagesarack:

    do you not come to gtgs becaue you think we're weird? or do you think you won't like any of us?

    No.  Partly, other things come up.  But, I just feel strange meeting "strangers," even though we talk everyday.  And it seems like a lot of you know each other IRL.  I'm an introvert and I hate going to parties or events w/ people I don't know, so I guess it's kind of scary.

    the reason we know eachother is because we've gone to gtgs.

    don't be scared! we'd love to meet you.
