Thank you - sincerely - to DV and Aisha for nominating my blog. Aisha is right - i haven't been posting nearly as much recently. I would love to think that's going to change, but realistically - it isn't soon.
1. my eyes change color with my mood - green when i'm focused, intense or emotional, gray if i'm more mellow
2. i grew up with one foot in Appalachia and one in suburbia - oddly so did my husband although it had nothing to do with our meeting each other - it's an odd mix of worlds
3. i am a very good cook - i can pull together whatever is around into something good - and rarely use recipes. If i do use a recipe - i always tweak it - even if it's the first time i've tried it. i really can't bake though - possibly because of the not following a recipe thing.
4. i have a great sense of direction - in cities to the middle of the most remote wilderness - except in shopping malls - i shopped (when i absolutely had to) at the same mall for 20 years and sill didn't know my way around.
5. I'm an enormous procrastinator - i think this is one thing my husband might change about me if he could
6. My kids are teens - i know i'm supposed to groan and moan about this - but i really (most of the time) really like them - even more at this age
7. i really hate that blogger doesn't auto-capitalize "i" -i got lazy with word and stopped doing the shift/i thing - it has nothing to do with D/s at all.
I really have to whimp out and not try to list just 15 blogs i enjoy. The truth is that i find myself too busy or too unfocused - or maybe both - to really interact and know any the way i would really like to. And i know there are so many more, especially newer ones, that i do like or would like, but once i start i get lost in them. I follow a very large number of you in reader - it's like a discipline tool - it lets me read what you all write (which i really, really love) but i can't just wander around and browse and get lost in it all. It will have to do for now.
OOh, so there's a possibility that my angsty 9 year old will becomes more pleasant!
ReplyDeleteKudos on the sense of direction--mine is based purely on the surrounding mountain ranges. Without them I'm hopeless.
And now I'm curious what you were going to say about porn...
There's every possibility - this growing up thing is fascinating really. I'm working on the porn thing - it's a tough one for me to see my feelings on yet.
DeleteYou are very welcome! :)

I would gladly take just a smidgen of your answer to number 4...I have a horrible sense of direction.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I hate to shop and even after going to this shopping centre for many years, I have no idea where this or that store is located :o)
Been really enjoying your blog.
Oh - i do think the lack of sense in malls is directly linked to how much i dislike being in them.
DeleteOh I think it is so cool that your eyes change color. My youngest sons eye color changes all the time like that and it is so interesting to study.
ReplyDeleteI thought you were just expression your submissive side with the lower case I.
Interesting list and I love your post title.
I think my husband appreciates having a small built in mood ring. And no - the i thing is pure laziness. Thanks.
DeleteI have a great sense of direction. When I was a little girl if it wasn't for me, my mom never would have found her way home from anywhere. Mom is very navigationally challenged. But like you, I have a local mall that gives me trouble. I think that's because it's at a kind of diagonal which throws off my equilibrium.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they design malls to be difficult - get people lost enough that they spend far longer than they would have otherwise....
