5 Things No One Would Know About You From BFP Alone

[Random]

1. At night, to help me fall asleep, I build things, create things, draw/paint pictures, clean and redecorate /rearrange spaces in my mind.. (This has caused some frustration, when in the real world, I don't have the technical skills to do the same things..)

2. I love head scarves, shaws, veils, the chador, and sari's...That said... I am hyper aware of Cultural appropriation and do not wear the things I love..

3. I am a bionary thinker who loves to put things in boxes... I compartmentalise just about everything... ( Yes, black and white are my favorite colors..lol)This is something that I am actively working on changing about myself.

4. Cobalt Blue and Ox Blood Red are my favorite colors.. I only like blue based reds.

5. I get bored easily but require routine at the same time (thanks gemme) I have a very hard time maintaining emotional consistancy.. (I really can be head over hills swoony about someone one day and the next day ambivolent) I know this about myself and intellectually maintain my emotions even when I don't *feel* them...

I wholeheartedly agree with the vast majority of this post.

I'm not too picky about whether the reds I like are blue-based, though I do prefer a nice medium to dark blue over reds in general.

Jewel tones make me happy.

My mental skills are far superior to my physical skills in terms of creation, as well.

I don't wear the things you love not specifically for cultural appropriation, but because I don't look good in them. I might be a bit more superficial than you.

lol... I find that the orange based reds just *feel* wrong to me.. I adore jewel tones.. rich and saturated..

I had a girl friend play doll with me and dress me up in her Sari.. It just felt right.. like it was what I was supposed to be wearing.. lol.. Truthfully.. I probably looked like a walking ball of fabric, but I didn't care.. It felt right...

[Kätzchen]

My favorite red lipstick is called Eternal Flame

I can't stand head banging, hard core, heavy metal, rock music

I've been told that my voice is lovely to hear (I'm a smoky alto)

I don't know what happened to me, but I used to be so extraverted and now I think I lean more toward the introverted side - I'm very shy, now.

My mother is known as an "Eagle eye" and I've learned a lot from her over the years. We had a terrible relationship at one time and now I don't know what I would do without her. She's one of my heros! Her birthday is in three days - she turns 71.

[Soft*Silver]

when I was a child I buried my baby dolls. I held little funerals for them and buried them in my mother's flower garden. (the soil was easy to dig in)

my favorite dress as a child was a turquoise dress with a white collar and cuffs and had shiny fake diamond buttons down the center. Now when I buy clothes, I buy the ones that make me feel like that dress felt when I was wearing it.


I love pickled eggs

There are two people I truly despise. And they deserve it.

I wont hold babies

[moxie]

I have been told I still have a Chicago accent despite not having lived there in 20 years. (I don't think I have an accent at all)

My laughter can be contagious.

I am a quiet person. I can literally go for days without talking to anyone.

I bought my first dress in about 7 years over the weekend.

I can't draw or cut a straight line. Even when a straight line is drawn for me to cut along, still can't do it.

[bigbutchmistie]

I loved climbing trees or on the roof of my adopted dads church when I was little. It was my way of escaping.

I can spend days without talking to or seeing anyone.

All of my friends are coupled

I dont hang out with co workers. Where I work is where I work. I dont bring it home with me

Ive never been to the beach

[Write14u]

The bulk of the friends I've had in my life have been work buddies. I'd probably have had no social life over the years if not for the, as that's the nature of the beast when you change papers every couple of years.

I'm trying to squeeze in a beach trip (even a day trip) in the next few weeks.

I'm really proud of my nephew and his music. He sang at church tonight, doing "Long Black Train" and "Go Rest High on That Mountain." I'm debating posting a link.

I've discovered that people REALLY have a problem with our government. Doing census work has been like pulling teeth.

My digital camera that I got for my birthday just three months ago isn't working. I'm very sad.

[Jet]

I hate Geico spots with a passion. Their agency needs to be fired and all
the juveniles along with it. If they call those idiotic spots creative, advertising has gone all to hell.
I don't smoke. (if i did, it would be a pipe)
I've been through things that would raise the hairs on the back of your neck.
I get comments on my hands more than anything else.
Spencer Tracy is my favorite actor.

[Gemme]

I have little to no tolerance for ________________.

The blank changes from day to day, except for a few "deal breaker" kind of things.

I have two wedding dresses I need to sell soon.

I actually understand what the phrase "fat 'n happy" means now.

Crafty and/or beautiful things are a major weakness of mine.

[Andrew, Jr.]

1. I love accents. I think they are sexy.

2. I am right handed.

3. I am not afraid to die. I am afraid of leaving my loved ones behind.

4. I hate to fly.

5. I have birds (robins or starlings I believe) living on my gutter out front of my house, and under my deck.

6. I pity my enemies. And I pray for them.

[PinkieLee]

1. I am a big fan of rap/hip hop, and have been known to bust out lyrics at any random time.

2. I have a signature "stripper" move that I do, when I've had a little too much to drink. Anytime one of my friends is out at a club & sees someone copycatin' my move, they'll text me to let me know

3. I have a lil' ditty that I sing ~ while reciting the 50 states in alphabetical order. I like to leave voicemails of said ditty on voicemails at 3 am!

4. I LOVE cooking for my friends... it gives me a chance to woooo them with my homecookin'. (They just better bring me some )

5. Never confuse my sweetness for being weak. I've been in my fair share of bar room brawls, and can twist off with a quickness.

[Rockinonahigh]

People think im quiet and reserved when they first meet me,just give it a minit then im a wild child.

Love sleping in on rainy days.

Have a sweet tooth that is my worst enemy.

Can be an absolute dork in social situations.

Dont mind being in my own little world.

[Pretty Woman]

I love twangy, old-time C&W music
I have an awesome 32 year old son
I was estranged from my homophobic parents for 12 years and until their death
I form opinions of people quickly and have difficulty changing my mind...something I'm trying to change
I have a real gift of the gab but I'm actually an introvert at heart and a little bit shy

[Blaze]

~ I was a premature baby, brought in to the world at 5 1/2 months. My Mother didn't know she was pregnant and she lifted a refrigerator, her water broke and then rushed to the hospital where I spent 5 months in an incubator before going home.
~ I was never afraid of anything until I went into the Marines an was up in a helicopter and told to repel down a rope and drop the last 15 feet down at the end of the rope, I hung there until my Sergeant cut the rope. Yes I was in trouble lmao.
~ I am pretty darn good at playing the guitar but can't sing worth a rats azz. So please don't ask me to sing karaoke songs unless you are willing to have others pay $5.00 for me to sit down and shut up.
~ I love all sports but actually hate watching them on the television, I prefer the crowd and the excitement of the stadiums.
~ I actually prefer rice with every meal, Yeah I know, but it's a Hawaii thing and living here in Texas has broken the habit but I still would rather have rice passing on potato's, french fries, and bread.
