Challenge part 4

15 Random Facts About Me....

  1. I am a lifetime member of Weight Watchers. (Who needs to get back to her goal weight.)
  2. My most favorite color is purple.
  3. I do not eat any ground or processed meat.
  4. I can quirk both of my eyebrows, and waggle them back and forth. 
  5. I have a "writer's bump" on my middle finger of my right hand. I always feel for it when someone asks me which direction, left or right...
  6. I am a clean freak, I like my home to appear spotless, but if you open a closet, be prepared for an avalanche to assault you! Closet clutter.. haha
  7. I have 2 tattoos, one on my back and one on my right ankle. (And I want more!)
  8. I drink 2 cups of coffee a day, to keep the headaches away.  
  9. Procrastinate is my middle name.. well, it should have been anyway. It's actually Marie. Marie should have meant procrastinate.
  10. I'm close enough to 5'8" tall, that I just go with it.
  11. Back in the day (high school), I was the only female in the carpentry program, it was awkward but fun.
  12. I love daisies. They remind me of freshness, renewal, springtime, sunshine, and happiness.

  14. I can plug my nose with my upper lip. Look mom, no hands!
  15. Is that enough weird random facts? Okay, one more.... sigh. I read many historical romance books.. I have boxes and boxes of them packed away. I even re-read the ones that I loved the most. I read about three a week. If I could have been born in another era, I'd go to Regency England.

Blog Challenge, Numero three

I fail at this blog challenge thing. I have already fallen behind, but that is mostly because I keep writing the one I'm supposed to do, and hating it sooooooo much that I delete it.


Today it will get done. I promise.

Part 3 I randomly generated the one to pick up a thesaurus and choose 10 words I like the sound of. Sounds easy enough right? Wrong! I don't have a thesaurus, or if I do, its most likely packed in a box in the deep recesses of my storage closet with all the other school related stuff I no longer use.

What to do....

Urban Dictionary to the rescue! It has a thesaurus, plus I get highly amused for hours whenever I browse the site.

***I apologize in advance for my warped/perverted sense of humor.

Alora~ Most people that know my online persona, know I go by CiaoAlora, LadyAlora or just plain Alora for various games. My husband used to call me allora quite a bit until I found out it means pretty much "hey you, girl" or some such generic saying...

Spokomton~ My hometown, Yo!






























Angry Dragon~*giggles like a schoolgirl*

Rawr~ Word that means "I love you" in dinosaur.

A simple .~ It stops a sentence in its path!

Designa Vagina~ A vagina that has had surgery, to become tighter.

Clitter~ Glitter for your vagina. Woohoo glitter! (I would not actually let glitter near my vagina, it sounds too similar to what might happen if sand got near...)

Weenis~ The skin on your elbow, or the nickname my sister likes to call me.

Cock~ A rooster. Honest.

Rake~ Rakes make the best husbands.


Woohoo, I did 10!! Okay, that is all for now.
