Miss Prissy if you're nasty...

A good friend of mine has a tendency to call me Prissy. (also Spoiled, but that's another story) Which makes me CRAZY. But then I step back and realize, ok maybe I am Prissy. Spoiled. Crazy. All of which makes me, me. But that's a total copout, to just admit to being Prissy & Spoiled. It doesn't tell you anything really about me. And neither will this, but I'm gonna post it anyway.

Crap you didn't know about me, and will probably forget the second after you read it:

1. Two years ago, we moved from Marshall, Texas after living there for 14 years. We moved to the middle of nowhere. I will probably be adjusting to it for the next 14 years.

2. Christopher Soprano's voice is the sexiest thing evah. Not his face, his voice. I could listen to that for hours.

3. I consider myself an only child. My biological parents only had me, and I grew up an only. I always wanted siblings though.

4. I do, however, have two half-siblings. They are college age. I'm "friends" with them on Facebook, but that's as far as it goes. I don't initiate contact, I'm not a big fan of rejection. And I'm the grown up. Therapy anyone?

5. I graduated from high school a year early. I wouldn't have done it had we not moved in the middle of junior year. I often wonder what life would have been like if I'd graduated from Pflugerville, instead of San Antonio. Don't want to change it, or regret it, but I will always wonder.

6. After staying at home with kids for 14 years, I work for BFE City Hall now. Started off as a part-time office helper thing. It has since turned into a real job, with a title and everything. I'm Big Stuff, bitches.

7. I am cynical to a fault. I do not trust easily. But when I'm your friend, there is nothing in the world I wouldn't do for you. If you're a real friend, I'll even let you call me Spoiled.

8. I have semi-diagnosed OCD. My doctor strongly believes I have it, but has yet to officially diagnose me. I don't take medication for it, and most of the time I don't think I need to. It manifests in strange ways too. My desk at work must be spotless, and perfectly symmetrical. My Tahoe is a disaster zone. Go figure.

9. One day, I want to learn to quilt. I'm going to make myself a quilt. Then one for each of my girls. Then I can quit forever.

10. Grease is my all-time favorite movie, followed a close second by Office Space. Damn it feels good to be a Gangsta.

11. I have an obsession with flip flops. Love 'em, love 'em, love 'em. My toes, always some variation of pink, must be perfectly painted 24/7. Even in winter, when I will still wear flips. I will not step one toe out of the door without my toes painted.

12. I don't have regrets, because each thing I've done has made me, me.

13. Growing up, I never expected to get married at 20. Or start having babies at 21. In fact, I never thought I would get married.

14. The best sound in the entire world is hearing one of my children say "I love you Mommy". Second best? "Would you like a glass of wine?"

15. The smell of tulips and baby powder are the most heavenly scents.

16. My favorite word is fuck. Second favorite is shit. I am KLASSY.

17. I have dreams and aspirations that I will probably never share with anyone. And I mean anyone.

18. My mouth has no filter. I cuss like a sailor, and will say almost anything to anyone. Because honestly, if you like me, great. If you don't, great. I know who I am. If you want my opinion, ask for it. If you don't, don't freaking ask.

19. I miss big hair. I'll admit it.

20. I have two tattoos. One is a cross on my left ankle. The other is on top of my left foot, three hearts with each of my children's initials in it. I am currently planning a third and fourth.

21. I am unnatural affection for my iPhone. I looooove it. For real. I have yet to name her though, nothing is good enough.

22. The best week I've ever had was our Disney World vacation, summer 2008. Everything about it was magical, as corny as that sounds.

23. I'm a huge sports nut. Football is like crack to me. And it has nothing to do with all those tight asses either.

24. I sing all the time. I sing loud and proud. My singing voice is not pretty at all. I don't care. 80's music is the best. Belting it out in the car is one of my favorite ways to relieve stress.

25. I abhor, detest, despise clowns. Stupid, stupid clowns. I don't care if you have some sweet name, like Foo Foo the Rainbow & Kittens Clown. Come near me and I will go gangsta on your ass. Thank you Pennywise for my lifelong affliction.

How you like me now?

Go Shawty

Go shawty, it's your birthday
We gon' party like it's yo birthday
We gon' sip Bacardi like it's your birthday
And you know we don't give a fuck
It's (not) your birthday!

Happy Birthday America! I'm gonna watch movies, drink copious amounts of wine (Bacardi = hangover) and grill some dead animal carcasses. Ok, so I'm not gonna grill. I'm gonna watch. Because really? Anything this soaked in booze shouldn't be around an open flame.

Y'all celebrate. Y'all be careful. Y'all come back tomorrow with all your appendages (that means you Doc).
