MEMORANDUM
TO: Men all over the planet
FROM: A woman who speaks the truth about herself
RE: 5 things about me….you probably don’t know but should
DATE: July 28, 2009
5). I’m a virgin: No, it’s not because I’m in some mind-numbing religious cult or sport a purity ring. And no, it’s not because my disability makes the act impossible. It’s simply a choice I’ve made for myself. On a side note, I’ve been avidly watching The Real World: Brooklyn and have fallen in love with Chett. Verdict: Males virgins are incredibly hot.
4).I’m shy: Really, I am. I know it doesn’t seem like it on this blog, but in real life, I’ve known to be a rather silent butterfly sometimes. I’ve actually learned to spread my wings a little bit over the last few years, so don’t worry, I’m not that painfully shy.
3). I’m feisty: I’m a redhead, so this should be an obvious one. Couple that with the fact that my disability has proven to make me extra feisty and I just might intimidate you…at first. I have a soft, gooey center, though.
2). I’m not one of those picky-eater girls: Gosh, I hate those girls. You know, the kind who pretend that they’re a prime and proper eater for fear they’ll turn off some guy. Sorry, boys. I love to eat and am not afraid to admit it. I once crawled all the way across the living room floor when I was a toddler just to eat a box of Thin Mints. My mother captured the proof (if I’m THAT determined over a box of mints, just think how I’ll be if you make me fall in love with you):
1). I’m a cheap date: No, not in that way (see #5), but I really don’t need big, swooping gestures (see #2): I’m an avid collector of PEZ dispensers. Any guy who gives me a PEZ dispenser to add to my collection has my heart (see pic of said collection below):
xoxo,
Have a lovely weekend

I just started following your blog, and I have already fallen in love with it! Your confidence and outlook on life is really inspirational.

I'm one of those girls that wont eat in front of her date.(after said date ends, I head straight to McDonalds for a # 1 meal). *hangs head in shame*
I'm feeling you on the thin mints. I once hid in our kitchen pantry so I could sneak to eat an entire box of Little Debbie Fudge Rounds. 🙂
I hope you find your Mr.Right! Who ever he is, he will be lucky to have you.

🙂 I love how you're so confident about everything you write. I'd made my blog private.. looks like maybe it'd be a great idea to share some of my thoughts or experiences with others [starting maybe tomorrow?] after reading your blognotes and found out that I'm not the only one that feels a certain way. :X.
But annyways, same with the shy part of yours. I'm shy as well, in real life but over the internet, it's so much easier to express yourself and just be yourself 'cause you don't have to be face-to-face to somebody and worry about what they think about your appearance or other shallow stuff besides what you wrote on the internet or said.. blah blah. 🙂 Anyways, loving your blog.
You're one of my new Idols, lol.
[Sorry for the long comment..] … err.

I am so glad I found your blog a few weeks ago. Your posts always make me smile. I love this list and can echo so much of it in my own life. In fact, I've also concluded that we are about the same age and grew up in the same neck of the woods. 🙂

I just started following your blog after you were sited as a blog of note. I must say that you are a very good writer and a wonderful person. Every time I read your blog, I get motivated. As a matter of fact, it is almost as if I suddenly gain a new outlook on life. Well, you might not know this, but you are truly a blessing. Once again, I'm glad to be a follower.

Mel-Rox says

**Seyma** says

That is so awesome. Sometimes I wish I could be that outrageously honest with the stupid guys I know. I'm pretty much all of those things, so I get what you're saying.
Kristie Lynne says
I love reading your blog. It's fun and inspirational. I would just like to mention on a side note that just because a religion encourages you to wait til marriage doesn't make it a "mind numbing religious cult." I'm choosing to wait because I want to AND because my religion encourages it. That doesn't make me a zombie or mean that I'm in a cult. Just that side note for you. Otherwise, very good.

I loved Chet, but Ryan was totally my favorite. Hellooo guys in uniform.
