Oh well, it's not Thursday anymore...but I started it on Thursday, so it still counts! I saw this on several blogs and it looks fun, so here I go...
(eta: okay, I just found out the TT is a blogroll! I didn't know all the info, but enjoy anyway!)
Thirteen odd and/or unknown things about me (or our family):
-
We were married on 7/10/99, our DD 5 was born at 7:10am, our DS 3 was born at 7:10 pm, and our DD 8m was born weighing, yup, 7 lbs. 10 oz.
-
I owned a Madagascan hissing cockroach named Hitchcock. He lived for 2 yrs.
-
I owned a ball python for 10 or so yrs. until he got out in our old house a few months before we moved. Never saw him again (and yes, it came up at closing!!LOL!)
-
My dads and his sisters & brother (6 children) all have names that start w/ "D".
-
My moms brothers and sisters had similar sounding names too, the long "G" sound.
-
My FIL's sibling names (5 children) start w/ the letter M, except for the "baby" brother who is named Doug! LOL!
-
I can tuck my lips all the way under and only show my gums and teeth - I call it my skeleton teeth.
-
My DH and I have had the same best friend since we were younger and they're still our best friends today. My DH since 3rd grade? Mine since 7th.
-
I'm pigeon-toed, so I can turn my feet to face each other (my best friend can turn them out facing away).
-
Very sad, but strange. My DH (boyfriend at the time) and I found a dead person. It was a hidden car accident off the road and I just so happened to notice the twinkle in the lights.
-
My DH and I shared a few connections of places and specific people years before we even met. He moved here from out of town about a year before we met.
-
I "broke" into a bank vault when I was little. My aunt worked the bank and a clerk locked the keys in the vault by accident. They called me b/c I was a tiny kid to slip under the vault gate and retrieve the keys. As my reward I got a dress-skirt full of suckers!
-
I grew up target shooting guns and was pretty good at the time.
You would never think it would be hard to think of 13 things, but even my DH had to help. |
