Monkey’s 100+ things

Updated 8/16/09

1. I am third of five kids. My mother had 11 pregnancies. I was a surprise because I stuck after 1 (or 2?) miscarriages. The brother below me, was definitely a surprise. And I got in trouble for telling him “you were a surprise, mom didn’t want another baby yet”.
2. I have first and middle born tendencies. The siblings above me are 6 and 10 years older. The siblings below me are 1 and 7 years younger.
3. I used to be in the church youth choir.
4. I still love to sing gospel music.
5. I have made a difference in this world because I talk about circumcision, breastfeeding, homeschooling and vaccinations (just ask Sam or JenG or Nicole or the guy changing my oil at walmart or the guy at the gas station who asked about my stickers).
6. I have never smoked. But I used to love the smell of camel smokes.
7. I also have never had alcohol – not even liquid nyquil.
8. Or illegal drugs.
9. I don’t make real-life friends easily. GB will tell you it’s because they know I will change their life, and they are scared of change.
10. Most of my friends are online. Makes it difficult when I want a night out with The Man. No one to watch the kids.
11. And most of my friends live far away and do not want to road trip to Nowhere, CA. Not fair.
12. I have been in porn. I did photo shoots, webcam shows, and meet’n’greets.
13. I talk about sex cause I love it and I want to learn more. Not for shock value (like some people think).
14. I collect pictures of penii (so send me yours).
15. All I ever wanted to do as a young teenager was be a mom to 6 kids. I have 7.
16. I really thought I would have 4 pregnancies and adopt 2 kids to equal the 6. I have 2 by custody, 3 step-kids and 2 by birth.
17. I generally have more than .02 to share. T says so.
18. I didn’t *love* pumping, but I totally didn’t mind it and would do it again in a heartbeat. And always talk about it as an option for new moms. LLL didn’t approve, not only of the exclusive pumping, but of the sharing of breastmilk that I tended to do. *shrug*
19. I love music.
20. I joined the military the year I turned 20. I was in for 2.5 years. I have a medical retirement.
21. I don’t like people I don’t know touching me.
22. I was diagnosed with cancer the year I turned 21.
23. I love with everything I have.
24. I went to one elementary school (not counting kindy), one junior high school, two high schools, and three colleges.
25. I love singing.
26. I miss my birth family how it used to be (together on sundays for lunch, getting together for every birthday, etc).
27. I have one friend from my school years today (hi Kylara!).
28. I went to kindy at the same school where my older brother went to 6th grade.
29. I rode the city bus to school that year.
30. I like to touch people, just to see their reactions.
31. I want 3 more tattoos. On my right leg, left forearm, and right shoulder/upper arm. I don’t think I will be done after that.
32. I grew up in a right-wing, king james version believing, christian church. This church split once when I was there, and 3-4 times since I left. My parents and siblings still go regularly.
33. I left that church when I was 18.
34. I love to move to music. But don’t know any official dance steps.
35. I used to want to be a welder when I grew up, just like my dad.
36. I don’t believe there is only one soul mate for most people.
37. I did not make friends easily in school. I had to wear skirts/dresses, have long hair, didn’t own a tv, and couldn’t listen to popular music (of any genre). I did not fit it, not even with the religious kids.
38. I don’t like doing anything sexual in a theater. I paid money to see the movie. I can get sex for free.
39. I loved being pregnant. It helped that my pregnancies were easy, the c-sections were easy, and healing was easy.
40. I am not allowed to get pregnant again. *sigh*
41. One day when I grow up, I want chickens. But I want them in a fenced off area so they don’t shit on my back porch. I had enough of that as a kid.
42. I wear jewelry I don’t have to take off. But my rings come off when I play.
43. Taking pics of others, while in the act, gets me hawt.
44. Knowing people are watching me, while in the act, gets me hawt.
45. Having pics taken of me, while in the act – you got it, gets me hawt.
46. I was 29 when I first dyed my hair. It was the first time I put product in it other than shampoo/conditioner/hair spray.
47. I have 6 tattoos: left calf, lower back, upper back, right forearm, right ring finger, above left breast.
48. I miss my Grandpa.

51. I have worn glasses since I was about 11.
52. I love the energy found at a good country concert. Makes me want to come home and have sex.
53. I used to want to work at a zoo. And then I lived in one.
54. I love beautiful/sexy clothing. I just don’t have an occasion to wear it out often. But there’s definitely a reason to wear it in.
55. Blogging saved my sanity. I have been blogging since Jan 2005.
56. I am on my 4th main blog. Two are no longer available, the third is listed on the sidebar.
57. A previous blog was a main reason why I was let go from a job, that’s not what they said though.
58. I have an HNT blog as well, but I don’t post on it anymore.
59. I watch a lot of tv. Most of it is dvr’d to watch later.
60. I dream of what life would be like when I win the lotto. How I would get the money, what I would do with it, who I would help. That list is fairly short.
61. I had braces for 4yrs and 7mos. I didn’t wear my retainer like I should have.
62. I had 5 wisdom teeth. They were pulled when I had braces.
63. I read. A lot. I own a library of books.
64. I homeschool both of my birth kids. I used to homeschool the step kids too, when we all lived in the same house. I love it.
65. HNT is fun for me. And serves my need to be seen.
66. I waited a year after the last baby to get my tubes tied. I just wasn’t sure I was done, even though he was.
67. I knew I was *home* when I had room to unbox all of my books and display them. It felt good.
68. I like having a camera in my hand. And sometimes I take good pics.
69. I only drink water. I used to only drink pepsi. For real.
70. The military helped me learn to accept my body the way it was. Even with all that pt, I still had my belly. I figure it will never go away.
71. I have small hands.
72. I have small feet, that are *very* happy to only have to wear flips forever.
73. I do not do very well without my phone, or my computer, or my tv. Ask my kids, they will tell you all about it.
74. I could eat chicken and cheese just about any way, every day.
75. I could eat cheese quesadillas every day.
76. I have to sleep with covers, not just a sheet, but a blanket. And it has to cover my torso to my feet.
77. In a relationship, I need to feel safe to open up completely. And it generally takes a while of feeling safe to be able to do that.
78. I respond better to actions rather than words.
79. The same goes for impressing me, words wont get you very far.
80. I dislike drama, in just about any form. And especially when it involves people that share my house.
81. I have zero time for jealousy issues.
82. I do not have a lot of patience for people who do not take care of themselves, healthwise (ie: go to the doc when they have a problem). Especially when they insist on telling me to make sure I get myself taken care of.
83. I don’t wear deodorant. I like the natural smell of me.
84. I also don’t lotion much, get any kind of hair style that has to be done every day, etc. I don’t like spending that much time in the bathroom or in front of a mirror every day.
85. I don’t like to cook, but I am learning to. I can follow a recipe, though.
86. I don’t really like food shopping either, it seems to take forever. I prefer to get in and get out, and going down most (or all) of the aisles does not make that an easy task.
87. I am discovering I am more into bondage than I originally thought I would be. It’s a fun journey.
88. I love it that I am with someone who makes me feel safe enough to take this journey. And who is willing to take it with me and explore themselves.
89. I used to wear my dog tags when I didn’t feel safe, because them on my skin grounded me.
90. I haven’t had to wear them for 4 years
91. I wish I could take a road trip of the US. I would visit every blogger on my list. What kind of party would that be?
92. My daughter joined the army on her 17th birthday. I am not scared for her. I know that this is dangerous and has the potential to end her life. But I also know she could get shot walking out our front door, or walking home from school. Puts it all in perspective for me. This is her dream. She should be able to live it without her mom freakin out.
93. The freecreditreport.com commercials make me laugh.
94. The comedian Jeff Dunham totally makes me wanna piss my pants.
95. T can make me laugh just by saying “steeek” in the same voice as Jeff. Fucking funny.
96. I flirt a lot. But only with people I am comfy with.
97. I have ridden in the back of a police car, but I wasn’t in trouble.
98. I do not think I’m gods gift to men, but I don’t get too many complaints about what I look like or what I do.
99. I have stolen various things. But I don’t consider the time I took a diaper cause I was shopping and I forgot my diaper bag in the car, and the child needed to be changed. Yes, I only took one out of the package.
100. I hate that it tabs over this far for the number 100…my undiagnosed ocd insists that I attempt to make it move over so it is aligned with the other numbers…the fact that it never does, irritates me (this was originally typed up in word)
101. I have had only one person not appreciate my bedroom skills. I still remember the feeling that I had when they gave me that bit of info. Not a good time for me.
102. I am a cancer (july 15).
103. I have had a 4some (MMFF) and a 3some (FFM). I love the single partner I have now.
104. I do not wear underwear/panties/chonies. In fact, the only ones I own are crotchless (3 pair) or go with my corset (1 pair).
105. I believe abortion is wrong for me, but support a woman’s right to choose what to do with their own body. Even if that means they kill their baby.
106. I think people should be proportional. Big or small, whatever, but be balanced.
107. 69 makes me happy.
108. Personality matters more than looks to me.
109. I have been married twice, but never proposed to.
110. I love where my life is today.
111. I love fresh air – until it hits about 85 degrees. Then I need the a/c.
112. I believe love is an action word.

I will add more as I go along.

peace…
