Yes, I am a Freak!

I am a small town girl from West Virginia. I have realized that you can take the girl out of the country, but not the country out of the girl. I am thankful for my experiences, but I am blessed to know my roots and remember where I came from. I spent 5 years in the United States Air Force. I am very proud of the time I served! Most IMPORTANTLY, I am a stay-at-home Mom to two wonderful, beautiful children. I am married to an active duty Marine of 22+ years and my best friend. He isn't one of the few good men, he "is" the only good man for me. He just got promoted to Master Gunnery Sergeant! Way to go Dean! I am truly blessed with the best man in the world and 2 wonderful children. Does life get any better than this???


I am very patriotic, so watch what you say about the military or their involvement overseas. If you don't support the reasons why we are there, SUPPORT THE TROOPS! Besides...the military isn't a job, it's a calling. Our nation's military has given us the freedoms we enjoy today. So, thank a Soldier, Airman, Sailor or Marine the next time you see one!


I am a HUGE Pittsburgh Steelers fan. I attended Super Bowl XL in Detroit. So, my kids will now be attending community college. The Super Bowl was practically in my back yard and I bleed black and gold. I could not pass up the opportunity of a lifetime. It was UNFORGETTABLE!!!


I grew up in West Virginia. No, not Virginia...West Virginia. And yes, there is a difference.


I got married for the first time at the age of 16! No, he wasn't my cousin.


My first job was Wendys.


I attended two of my high school proms as a married woman.


I graduated high school with honors.


I love candy and chocolate. Fun Dip is one of my favorites.


I celebrated when I hit 100 lbs.


I don't take life too seriously. It's too short to take serious.


I love to dance around in my underwear and sing out loud when no one is watching!


I joined the Air Force in 1996. I worked in Accounting and Finance.


I love my country and those that serve it. If you want to bad mouth the President or our troops, please do it elsewhere.


I live life to love. I don't want to ever have any regrets.


I always thought that the best thing in life was being known for my accomplishments. I felt like success was based on my job title and how much money I made. My title is now "Mommy" and I don't make a dime! I feel like I have won the lottery!


I don't see color...I see Intelligence. Photobucket


I believe in fate, destiny and karma. What goes around...comes around. So, I try to practice the golden rule. Treat others as you would want to be treated.


I don't have any preconceived notions about someone when I meet them. I am very open minded and receptive to differences.


I love the Pittsburgh Steelers, Detroit Red Wings and cheer for University of Michigan and West Virginia University. I attended Florida State, so I guess I like the Seminoles...lol.


I am not materialistic at all. I hate flowers on Valentine's Day or Anniversary's. Be creative!


I am very stubborn and hot headed. My temper sometimes is out of control. Can you say anger management?


On a lighter note...I am very compassionate and understanding. If I am a friend, I am a friend for life.


I LOVE sports. Don't get into a battle of wits with me on Steeler's football. I go WAY back and will put you to shame.


I own EVERY Prince album made. I know all the words to all of his songs and sometimes think that I can reach his high notes in the shower! :)


I love men in uniform. Strangely...I find the UPS man attractive too!


I love scary movies. I like to watch them alone and in the dark.


My favorite books are by Stephen King and Dean Koontz. I hate romance novels and have never made it past the first page.


I don't make friends very easily with women. It may be me, but HOLY CATTINESS!


I am a cat person. I like dogs too, but prefer my feline companions.


I am obsessed with Patrick Dempsey, or should I say McDreamy? He does it for me.


I have many obsessive compulsive issues. I clean like there is no tomorrow and I know if something in my house has been moved or touched. I can't help it.


I won't eat syrup on pancakes, waffles or anything else "unless" my hair is pulled back in a pony tail. I have an issue with sticky stuff.


I can't go potty (#2) if someone else is in the house. I didn't poop for 10 days in church camp and almost 2 weeks in Air Force Basic Training.


I can't sleep at night if everything isn't put away in my house.


I got to ride in the back seat of a F-15 Eagle. Yes, it WAS like Top Gun!


I hate having my wrists touched. Do not attempt to touch them, look at them or ask me to look at yours. It is a phobia and I can't explain it...so don't ask. My sister swears I committed suicide in a prior life.


I have a very hard time apologizing to people.


I am terrified of dying young and leaving my children...just like my own mother.


I think Drew Carey and President George W. Bush are SEXY!


I love a man with a sense of humor. It surpasses looks every time.


I think bald, black men are extremely sexy.


I cross my toes when I am sitting down (even with socks on).


I am domestically challenged when it comes to cooking. Yes, I thought coffee was in coffee cake. : P


Yes, I think Prince is sexy.


I don't use knives. So, that means you will have to cut your own fruits and vegetables. Knives give me the willies.


I own a gun and yes, I will use it.


I have bungee jumped. No, I wasn't brave. I begged for the guy to push me off, because I was scared to DEATH!


I am deathly scared of needles. I went through 22 hours of labor without and epidural. I was more scared of the needle than the pain.


I hate it when people stick food in my face or in my children's face. If you want me to try something, ask me if I want a bite and hand me the fork (or spoon). Don't shove it in my face! :)


I don't eat seafood. Sounds pretty normal...right? I don't eat seafood, because they poop where they live.


I am a stickler for pronouncing someone's name correctly and/or spelling it right. I have been called Dee-ann-ah for my whole life and it is annoying...lol. It is Dee-nah people!
