a little bit more about me

I saw this over at Brittany's and thought it looked fun! I like meme's with no rules. {grin}

I...

was born with a full head of multi colored hair... red, auburn & strawberry blond. I still have multiple colors, God given highlights.

have never dyed my hair, i'm afraid to mess up my real color

LOVE winter scarves, bright, stripes, bold prints, LOVE them!

still can not fit into any prepregnancy pants... what's UP with that!!!

am addicted to hershey kisses right now {this might be contributing to the above problem}

ate a footlong veggie sub from subway, pintos and cheese & nachoes from taco bell every day {i worked} for lunch when I was preggo with Grayson

still eat a footlong veggie or tuna sub when we go to Subway

had to research and write a report for my parents when I decided to become vegetarian... I was 10.

skipped school my freshman year with my hubby... then boyfriend... after only dating for 2 weeks. We got caught, had ISR {in school reassignment} and I was grounded for weeks. The reason we were caught is b/c hubby had skipped school before and was on the 'double check' list. When they called his mom, she said, "you might want to check his girlfriend too" Thanks Pat! {grin}

don't like being trendy, if everyone's doing something I sometimes make a point to NOT do it. I like being unique without clouded ideas.

have worn the same 2 toe rings for 13 years

had the song "baby got back" by Sir-mix-a-lot serenaded to me in Junior High

had to drive my parents van instead of the car in HS before I had a car because I called it a "loser cruiser".... it SO was a loser cruiser too!

said I never wanted to drive a mini-van and now I do and love my van {gasp}

still consider myself and my family vegetarian {that eats chicken and salmon occasionally} based on what we DO eat and not what we DON'T eat...

am growing my hair out, hoping it will get down to the middle of my back

There you have it! 16 things about me you probably didn't know about me!

  14. The 'loser cruiser' LOL!!!
    I guess that might be what my kids think as they age too.

    For what it's worth I drive the same van you do (make/manufacturer anyways) and LOVE it, even better that we bought it in 2005 & paid it off in 2006!!

  15. SO jealous that you have never died your hair. Not fair.

    I like how your parents made you write that report - what a cool thing for them to do. Do you still have it?

  19. Girl, you are not a vegetarian if you eat chicken and salmon, even if it is just "occasionally" like you said.

    I am a vegetatian. I do not eat meat under ANY circumstances.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Wow! I agree with you. Some people have their "judgemental" pants on lately don't they? Must be the cold weather!

    ReplyDelete
  21. You are so lucky to have that hair color :)
    Neat post!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Well, snap! Maybe if that girl ate some meat she wouldn't be so crabby! ;)

    My meme is up! Thanks again for the tag, I had fun!!
