Yeppers… you gave MPSIMS a great plug, after all…

Sue: Awwww Pwwwweeezzzeee lemme post it… pretty pweeezzee???

Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches are a main staple of mine.
They don’t call me Brat for nothin.
I love Mickey Mouse
I really try to be good but it just isn’t in my nature!
- I wear black, all black, most every day. No, I am not morbid, or a goth, or in mourning, or depressed(most of the time). I just don’t like shopping and black takes longer to wear out. (it doesn’t show stains, and when it fades it becomes grey.)
- It’s not messy, it just looks that way.
- I am a writer…(yeah yeah ok most everyone else said this too. I’ve been published but didn’t like it, so I stopped(being published that is)
- I smoke hand rolled cigarettes, but no more than 2 a day. and if i start to jones for them i stop. for at least a week.
- I grew up in South Africa during the 80s, when what amounted to a civil war was in progress. then i moved to the united states.
- I like South Africa better
- Just because I go to college doesn’t mean I spend every weekend getting wasted and partying. I know at least 4 people at college who don’t. OK so I’m not one of them.
- I created the John Madden drinking game.
- I have a loud laugh–more like a burst of “eh-HAH!”–if something really funny catches me off guard (like something my b/f says). This is apparently one of my trademarks.
2.Okay, add me to the list of writers. I’ve been published a few times, but fiction bores me and I’m trying to publish articles instead now.
-
Someone stole my Millennium Jack antennae ball–beat up, dirty, and frayed–and it really pisses me off. They don’t sell them anymore.
-
Too many people tell me I look like Madeleine Stowe. I think they’re wrong.

-
I have a very crude sense of humor, and am damn proud of it.
-
I rather like make-up, body scents and jewelry, but hate heels, pantyhose, fake nails, curling/styling my hair, and tight clothes. But I do like to dress up on occasion, and don’t mind the discomfort for a few hours. But every day? Blech!
I used to think the world was against me. Now I know better: Some of the smaller countries are neutral.
-
I cannot roll my tounge into a “u”.

I’ve worked on an oil drilling rig (roughnecked).
About 10 years ago I cheated on my wife while visiting a friend in Washington D.C. I was so totally scared of AIDS and other STDs that I never did it again.
I wish I could make as much money being an umpire as I make being a computer programmer. It’s a hell of a lot more fun being out in the sun.
Hurt feelings are the worst pain in the world.
I’ve never known that I could love something so much until I had kids.
Enright3
Ah, but Nu Vo Da Da (and what is that?) I THOUGHT of the Madden drinking game. And I expect a cut of the royalty checks.
I have a collection of about five hundred CD’s. But I’m a sucker for 70’s sappy love songs.
My entire family gets together at least twice a year to watch The Sound of Music and The wizard of Oz. It’s been a tradition of over 10 years now. One of the funniest things in the world.

“And on the eighth day, God Created beer
to prevent the Irish from taking over
the Earth.”
~SNOOGANS~
No, i’m not drunk, just not paying attn to what the hell I’m doing. To clear up, Emig is a **she[/] and when I said
What I meant was I am on the SDMB at least 5 hours a day.
Sorry, you understand.
Oh yeah, I forgot one:
- In my opinion, Shayna rocks, and so do areynaldo and Glitch. WOO-AH

1)I have never seen a STAR WARS movie.

I have a photographic memory. Professors always thinking I am cheating during tests because when I am trying to remember the annswer to something, I concentrate hard on one spot so I can bring up the picture of the page the answer was on (so I can read it)–apparently they think I am staring at someone else’s paper.
I cannot eat chicken noodle soup without a ton of pepper and lots of American cheese in it.
I named my dog after my husband’s favorite hockey goalie. (Hasek)
I cannot play board games with young kids because they usually don’t play correctly and that drives me almost to the point of homicide. (No joke.)
I have memorized (not intentionally) the words to many movies and can quote them on demand. One of my biggest pet peeves in the world is when someone quotes a movie and they get it wrong–I mean, if you are going to go so far as to actually point out that you are “quoting” from a movie at least have the sense enough to get it right!!!
I will not eat green peppers but I really enjoy the flavor of them in/on certain foods.
I competed in Academic Decathlon in high school and won many medals. (Please tell me at least one of you knows what I am talking about.)
I spend 7 out of the 8 hours I am at work per day on the SDMB.

His loss is great, but so is the gift his suffering brought.
-Yakamo’s Funeral

I’ve never been convicted of crimes against nature.
