11 things about me

1.    I am really looking forward to the hot date night that my wife and have planned for this Saturday night. What does it include? A movie and a trip to the mall for new socks and underwear. Not like sexy underwear just regular underwear. We really know how to live it up!
2.          My wife is a vegetarian so we eat vegetarian at home but one of my most favorite foods are hot dogs.
3.         I played the clarinet for 7 years growing up. I am still not sure I actually was playing it the correct way.
4.    For the first six years of my relationship with T I never did a load of my own laundry, not even once. I now help fold it and put it away.
5.         I have not put a relaxer (chemical straightener) in my hair since July and I am hoping to never do it again. I am embracing my curls!
6.    I have seen every episode of Law and Order SVU at least 5 times. I am obsessed with that show and it has now transferred over to both regular L&O and Criminal Intent.
7.     I am obsessed with nail polish. I only purchase Essie and Opi and have over 75 bottles. I probably paint my nails at least 3x a week.
8.     While at counseling last week I couldn’t remember the last time I cried. Which for me means it was at least a week before! I was so proud of myself.
9.     Three years ago I “broke up” with a best friend of mine for dumb reasons. In the last year I have reconnected with her and am so grateful that she didn’t shrug me off for my stupidity.
10.         I am in love with Mt. Dew.
11.           I want to be a spy when I grow up. Like Alias or Nikita. This is not a joke.

My questions from Risa!

1. What is your favorite holiday? Christmas! I love how everyone is so cheery around the holiday season.

2. Are you a morning person or night owl? I want to say night owl just because I love owls but I think I’m more of a mid day person. I don’t like the extreme either way.

3. What was the greatest moment of your life? The greatest moment of my life was watching my wife walk down the aisle to me. I burst into tears. I literally thought I was unlovable for many years and I think that moment in front of our friends and family I felt so loved!

4. Why do you blog? I blog to get my emotions about this crazy baby making journey out. It has helped me tremendously in even this short while!

5. What is your favorite waste of time? P*nterest!

6. What is your favorite book or movie? Favorite book is “She’s come undone” by Wally Lamb and Favorite movie is “The Bodyguard”---I’m not really a movie person so that’s just been my go to for the last fifteen years or so!

7. When was the last time you cried?  Last Friday when I realized with my schedule I won’t be able to see my counselor until March.

8. What causes are you passionate about? Gay rights

9. What did you want to be when you grew up? I really wanted to work at McDonald’s! And then a lawyer and a teacher and if you read my other answers I still want to be a spy!

10. Beer, wine, or hard liqueur? Neither. I probably drink twice a year so Mt. Dew it is for me!
