11. My favorite colors are black, purple, and green
12. I'm "line bred".. my parents are somehow related (3rd cousins 5 times removed or something like that.. mom did geneology and she's not 100% sure)

24. I always asked for something weird for Christmas when I was a kid.. I never did get my bonsai tree, but my aunt did get me a set of plastic flamingos a few years ago.
25. I want to make clothes for my plastic flamingos.. why? because its just so freakin tacky! Those stupid geese can have clothes, so why do plastic flamingos have to be nekkid?

43. At same school, I got paddled twice.... for drawing cats on my art projects!
44. My first pet was a black cat named Tommy.. I was about 4 years old. I wanted a white female with blue eyes.. but I picked him out at the pound.. because he was sticking his paws out of the cage and saying "PICK ME! PICK ME!"
45. I once looked into doing surrogate pregnancies, you get paid $10,000 for it. I wasnt a candidate at the time because I did not have my own children tho. My ex-hubby was against it because "I'd be carrying another man's baby, and that would be like cheating".. he didnt understand that I'd be carrying another WOMAN'S baby as well.

I did 1/2 of this on Facebook recently, and I'm just going to copy and paste the first 25 since I had a hard enough time coming up with those. I'm just not that interesting. I'll do my best coming up with 50.

1. My first and middle names are Kara Leigh, hence my forum name. lol As far as I know I was not named after anyone.
2. I went to the same elementary school that my son goes to.
3. The teacher that my son has this year for 4th grade, Mrs Assman, was the same teacher I had for 4th grade. This is the first time she has ever had the child of a child she taught. I'm proud to be the first.
4. My favorite animal is the Prairie Dog.
5. I have pretty bad social anxiety. I have yet to get up the nerve to go to a "Mom's Night Out" with the other moms from Greyson's class. Hopefully one day I will.
6. I won 2nd place in a drawing contest when I was in 2nd grade.
7. I have loved babies ever since I can remember and all I've ever wanted to do was be a mom.
8. I want to be a nurse some day.
9. I am going to use cloth diapers on our next child.
10. If I could pick any car to drive, it would be a Dodge Charger.
11. I once spent Christmas Day with my family on a beach in St Martin. It was 85 degrees, clear blue skies, a white sand beach, and absolutely wonderful.
12. I have Addison's Disease. I don't tell very many people. I'll have to take steroids for the rest of my life.
13. I ran away from home for 3 days when I was 17. I stayed at my friend Jennie's house. I lost contact with her when she moved in with her dad during our senior year of high school and I still miss her. She was the best friend I ever had.
14. My favorite scents are laundry detergent and fresh cut lumber (pine specifically).
15. I love watching surgical procedures. I find them fascinating, but most people think they are gross. My husband does.
16. My favorite tv shows are Lost and Heroes.
17. My father didn't know I existed until I was 2 years old.
18. I have an obsession with pens. I love all sorts of pens, and I have tons of them. My favorite type of pen to write with is the Pilot G-2.
19. I've known my brother in law since 8th grade, but I didn't meet my husband until I was 19.
20. I get aggressive when I drink wine, but I don't when I drink beer.
21. I would love to be a photographer for a living, but I don't have the patience for it. My social anxieties also kick in and I get too nervous.
22. My son has many more traits from his father than he does from me. He is the coolest kid ever.
23. I hate winter, and I absolutely hate snow. I've always said I swear I was born in the wrong state. Someday I hope to move to some place where it is always warm.
24. I spent one semester at Iowa State University. I was going to become an Interior Designer. I couldn't handle being away from home, so I dropped out.
25. I love dragonflies. Once when we were canoeing at the Niobrara River, I found a dragonfly that was drowning in the river because its wings were wet. I picked it put out of the river and it sat on my finger until its wings were dry. I thought it was the coolest thing.
26. During my senior year of high school I skipped an entire 1/2 semester of band and no one noticed.
27. I used to hate school so I skipped class all the time. I didn't even finish my final project in Chemistry my senior year, but my teacher gave me a D rather than failing me so I could graduate and he wouldn't have to teach me again the next year.
28. I love school now and was the top of my class in my CNA course when I took it a little over a year ago.
I didn't even skip a day! LOL I was very proud of myself and can't wait to go to school for nursing.
29. I also never blow dry my hair, I only air dry it.
30. If I had my way, my family would eat nothing but organic food and use only organic products. My husband thinks it is bogus, though, and refuses. The only thing "natural" I can get him to use is Ecover dishwasher tablets b/c he admits they work better. He refuses to use the Ecover liquid dish soap, though.
31. When my father found out I was pregnant he told me it would be the biggest mistake I ever made. I couldn't agree less. The reason he told me that was b/c I was 21 and unmarried when I gave birth (his father is my now husband). My father was 25 and not married to my mother when I was born, so I knew he meant that I was the biggest mistake he ever made.
32. I have been with my husband for 11 1/2 years and married for 8 1/2. Our son just turned 10.

33. I have been trying to have another baby since our son was 18 months old. In May it will have been 9 years since we started trying. I had 6 miscarriages in the first two years and I haven't gotten pregnant since.

34. I want to adopt a baby in the worst way, but my husband insists on waiting until we are financially ready. I have a feeling it will never happen. *sigh*
35. I didn't have a date to my Senior prom (didn't even have a boyfriend that whole year) so I went with one of my female friends.
36. I love magazines, but I rarely read them. I just like looking at the pictures! lol
35. I love to read. I have probably read thousands upon thousands of books in my life. I can't narrow myself down to a favorite, though.
36. I have a lot of health problems, but for the most part I'm a healthy person. My husband always tells me that I am broken and he needs to trade me in for a new model. lol
37. I have a pituitary tumor in my brain, but it is small and so far hasn't grown at all, so it won't be removed.
38. I love to eat cake. Especially cupcakes. I prefer cupcakes to be vanilla with no frosting. My husband likes them the same way. When I make cupcakes I only put frosting on a few of them for our son.
39. My favorite brand of shoes is Keen. I have a bunch of pairs of Keen shoes.
40. My son and I collected all of the state quarters. Just recently we found the last one so our collection is complete!
41. I have kept every single tooth my son has ever lost or had pulled out.
42. My favorite colors are blue and lime green.
43. I'm a huge slob at home, but I'm OCD about being clean and organized at work. I have no clue why.
44. I haven't eaten fast food other than sandwiches from Subway or Jimmy Johns in almost 2 years.
45. My family always had cats when I was growing up. The first when I was born was a big fluffy cat named Tam. Once both my sister and I moved out my mom stopped having cats and now only has dogs. Weird.
46. I have a small stuffed bunny sitting on a shelf on my computer desk. I got that bunny for my first Christmas when I was 12 days old.

47. My parents don't like each other. They just built a new house a couple years ago, and they each have a bedroom on opposite sides of the house. They only see each other in the kitchen.
48. My son is 80% deaf in his right ear. Most likely he has been that way since birth, but we didn't find out about it until the summer after he was in Kindergarten.
49. I collect Willow Tree figurines. I have a whole bunch of them.
50. I went to London and Scotland when I was 18 and I absolutely hated it.

There's no place like home
1.\tMy name is Amy Elizabeth.

2.\tI sometimes wish for a different first name, but like my middle name – it was my motherâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s name.

3.\tI take after my mother. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m proud of that fact as she was a wonderful person.

4.\tI have red hair and green eyes.

5.\tI have a rarer blood type (A-). Along with the red hair and green eyes, I like to think Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m a rare person.

6.\tIâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m generous to what most people would call a fault. I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t care in this matter.

7.\tIâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve been working in the IT field for 30 years this October. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]d like to say I started when I was 2, but that would be a stretch.

8.\tSome people tell me I have a sarcastic sense of humor.

9.\tI was married at 23 and divorced at 26.

10.\tI remarried at 29 and am having a big anniversary this year (guess my age).

11.\tNo kids. I do better with older kids than babies.

12.\tI love dogs as much as my cats.

13.\tI realized that I was intuitively using the Dog Listenerâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s techniques for years before I picked up her book and read about it.

14.\tI love my cats (I know, duh).

15.\tI believe that cats are without a doubt one of the more intellectual challenges of my life. I enjoy the challenge.

16.\tI can be highly competitive. I like challenges.

17.\tI love to travel. Would like to visit every continent before I die.

18.\tI really need to make a “bucket listâ€.

19.\tThe most exotic place I visited was the jungles in Panama. I canoed up a crocodile laden river there.

20.\tI climbed down a 300 foot cliff for my 38th birthday.

21.\tI scaled the pyramids in Mexico for my 40th birthday.

22.\tI absolutely loved Paris, France.

23.\tMy extended family consists of many faiths. Various Christian sects, as well as Jews, Muslims and atheists.

24.\tI believe people are people, regardless of their faith or lack thereof.

25.\tI was born and raised in Chicago, the majority of the time on the south side.

26.\tIâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve lived in 4 states – Illinois, Texas, Missouri and Kansas.

27.\tI like to think 27 is my lucky number. Itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s the day of my birth.

28.\tI have 4 brothers and sisters. We all live in different parts of the country. Mom and Dad are both gone.

29.\tI donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t drink a lot of alcohol, but when I do, itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s the good stuff.

30.\tMy motto: life is too short to drink cheap booze.

31.\tI work at my job for the paycheck. The mental stimulation is long gone.

32.\tI would quit my job in a heartbeat if I won the lottery. Powerball is up to about $187 million right now. DH is buying a ticket today.

33.\tMy side business (Auntie Em Creations) is not for the money, but to give me a creative outlet and to help animals in need.

34.\tI am a creative person. Not so much artful, as crafty.

35.\tIâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve had 4 surgeries where I was put under. The longest time I spent in a hospital was a week.

36.\tIâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m actually very healthy, just have weird medical things happen to me.

37.\tIâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m allergic to most antibiotics. I do have a deep fear that Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m going to pick up something one day and they wonâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t be able to treat me for it.

38.\tI donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t open up to a lot of people. I hold my real deep thoughts for my handful of close friends.

39.\tI played the piano for years and want to get back into playing it again.

40.\tI survived a tornado with only a minor injury to my knee when I was blown to the ground.

41.\tMy one big phobia is related to water. I canâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t put my face into it.

42.\tI white-water rafted over a waterfall to try to get over my fear of water. It didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t work. My head left a head sized bruise on my husbandâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s back.

43.\tIâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve had 4 marriage proposals made to me in my life. I took 2 of them up on it.

44.\tIâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve realized how love grows and changes the longer you are married. It is one of lifeâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s hardest lessons sometimes.

45.\tI love to eat, therefore Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve taught myself how to cook. I cook better than most restaurants in town.

46.\tI hate to bake.

47.\tThe most cats that Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve ever cared for at any single point in time was about 25. That included a feral colony. I had 5 dogs at that time also. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m happy to be down to a more manageable 11 cats and 3 dogs.

48.\tAs my gang of critters grows old and crosses, Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve made a personal vow to never exceed 4 cats again. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m getting to old for this.

49.\tI am very good at understanding my limitations.

50.\tI wonâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t be 50 until next year.

1. My full name is Teresa.
2. The nickname “Tari†came about because of a misspelling when I registered as a professional actor. They put my name in the computer wrong and wouldnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t let me correct the spelling. It was easier to just take the typo as a legal nickname.
3. My middle name is Mae.
4. Mae is after my grandmother, and several of my cousins also share the middle name. It wasnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t until after her death that everyone looked at her birth certificate and realized that she actually didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t have a middle name.
5. I have no children of my own, but I have a 24-year-old stepson that I love like crazy.
6. When my stepson was growing up he and his friends would hang out at our apartment most weekends. At the time I felt annoyed occasionally at the invasion, but now I really miss them.
7. I have a handicapped cat, Forest. He was born with cerebellar hyperplaysia, which is kind of the feline version of cerebral palsy. Besides moving funny, heâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s perfectly fine…no health problems whatsoever.
8. I believe Forest was sent to me as a constant reminder that some of the best things in live are imperfect.
9. I also have another cat, Tailer, thatâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s normal and looks just like Forest. We have to explain this every time new people come to our house.
10. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]d really like to have a dog, too, but I travel so much and work such unpredictable hours that I think it would be unfair to the dog.
11. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m the only female living with a bunch of males…DH, my stepson, both cats...fortunately the organization I work for is staffed mostly by females, so I do get some balance.
12. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m trying to talk DH into adopting a female cat, but so far Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve been unsuccessful.
13. I love animals…pretty much all animals. The exception is spiders, which I hate, but Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m trying to be tolerant of them.
14. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m a terrible bowler. I once bowled a 3 (thatâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s not a typo).
15. Despite my lack of bowling skills, I let DH talk me into joining a summer bowling league, in which I have the lowest average (87).
16. I have no desire to improve my bowling because I find that itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s fun being the worst person in the league…everybody roots for me.
17. My hair is naturally curly now, but as a kid it was stick straight. When I hit adolescence it started getting curly, and it seems to get curlier as I get older.
18. My hair is currently red, but not naturally…the red is by Clairol.
19. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m the oldest of four kids, and my siblings say I act just like a typical oldest child.
20. Growing up, my sister and I never got along.
21. Now that weâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]re adults, though, my sister and I are very close.
22. I was a dancer in my youth, and a pretty good one.
23. I was accepted to the apprenticeship program of a nationally recognized ballet company, but I broke my foot badly and ended my dance career before my apprenticeship started.
24. After I could no longer dance I got into acting. I worked as a professional actress for several years before the money ran out and I had to get a real job.
25. I also worked as a waitress in a 50s diner and as a cocktail waitress at a semi-sleazy pickup bar in my youth.
26. My mother is the youngest of 12, so I have a HUGE extended family. I have oodles and oodles of cousins, including many Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve never met.
27. Since my aunts and uncles have started dying, Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve been trying hard to preserve our family history. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve created a website for our family, and Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m also trying hard to recollect some of the old family recipes.
28. I enjoy baking pies. To me, itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s a very calming activity. I learned from my grandmother, so Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m really pretty good at it.
29. I spent the first several years of my life in downstate Illinois, so when we moved to the Chicago area I had a downstate accent. They sent me to speech therapy to get rid of it. It worked, except it still creeps back sometimes when Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m overtired or have had too much to drink.
30. I had to go to speech therapy again in high school. My speech team coach sent me to make me less breathy. It didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t work.
31. Despite the ineffective speech therapy, I was a national speech champion in high school and college. My specialty was in poetry reading.
32. I was my high school homecoming queen.
33. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m a really, really lightweight drinker. Two drinks in less than a couple hours will usually do it. (Insert cheap date joke here.)
34. I really love corny old Hollywood musicals. My favorite is Top Hat.
35. Most of my life I didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t want to get married. DH felt the same way, so we were together for 12 years before we decided to tie the knot.
36. Now that weâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]re married, I love it and I canâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t imagine why we didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t do it sooner.
37. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have wonderful in-laws. I love his family as much as my own. It doesnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t seem like many people I know can say that.
38. I have a very rare disease called Fibromuscular Dysplaysia that has affected the arteries in my neck. Itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s also caused a few small dead areas in my brain. Itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s not a big deal, and itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s all under control. All in all, Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m lucky they found it. Itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s most commonly diagnosed through an autopsy.
39. I like to blame the dead spots in my head any time I forget anything.
40. I have allergies to some really weird stuff…avocados, corn silk (not corn…just the silky stuff), neoprene, and the state of Idaho.
41. Even though I hate guns, I try to keep an open mind about everything, so Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve been to a shooting range with DH and a friend of ours. Turns out Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m a really good shot…which makes DH a bit nervous.
42. I love most music, but I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t get serious about it. I have no idea who sings what. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve even been to concerts where Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve said “I didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t know he sings that.â€
43. My current job is doing leadership development and training with the volunteers for a medical association. Most of the volunteers I work with are doctors, which can get trying at times.
44. I travel every couple months for work, usually to pretty nice places. At first it was exciting, but after a while it wears off a bit. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve seen the scenery between the airport and the hotel (and nothing else) in a lot of cities.
45. I really hate traveling to the city of Dallas.
46. I believe that Dallas hates me back, and thatâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s why I can never travel there without delays, mix-ups, bad weather, and various other problems. Once I ended up in Omaha while trying to get home from Dallas.
47. I do really love most of the people I know from Dallas (including several members of this site).
48. Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m working on becoming certified as a professional group facilitator.
49. At the age of 40, Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve accepted that there are a number of things I just donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t understand and likely never will. This includes, but isnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t limited to, advanced calculus, how the Federal Reserve works, soccer, what my cats are up to when they go tearing across the house for no apparent reason, Rush Limbaugh, and intolerance in any form.
50. I had a really hard time coming up with 50 even moderately interesting things about myself. I wonder what that says about me.

2. I love learning and have a Bachelor's degree in Spanish and a Master's Degree in Media Studies.

3. I enjoy drawing "furry art" (animals with human features).

4. I own my own company designing websites and writing sales letters. I love what I do so much that it hardly seems like work!

5. I met my husband online. I've known him online since I was in high school (I'm 29 now). He is from Germany.

6. I live in the same town where I grew up.

7. It took me a 2,000 mile trip to the other side of the country and back again to realize I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

8. The road trip I took back home with my husband and mom is one of the most memorable experiences of my life.

18. I'm very pro-gun!

19. I can't stand watching sports on TV.

20. I wrote a book and it's on Amazon.com!


21. I wish I knew how to cook. I'd burn ice if it were possible.

22. I don't drink or smoke. I've never smoked and drinking other than a glass of wine every now and then really doesn't appeal to me.

23. I was meant to be left-handed but my parents and teachers forced me to use my right hand. I still write like a leftie.

24. I strongly believe in karma and that what you do to others in this life will come back to haunt or bless you in your future.

25. I was born 3 months too early and almost didn't live. My parents never could have any other children.

26. I love the smell of cloves

27. I am quite the coffee connoisseur and love vanilla cappuccino.

28. I am seriously allergic to aspartame - the artificial sugar that's in everything: Splenda, Nutrasweet, Equal. I can't even have a stick of gum with the stuff in it.

31. I have always owned at least one black cat.

32. I'd like to own a home within the next 2-3 years.

34. My online nickname has always been Sparkie. Sparkie is my company mascot, a purple cat.

35. I've traveled all over Spain and would love to go back one day!

36. I have a very dry, sarcastic sense of humor that most people don't expect when they first get to know me!

37. To this day I still love playing video games and have even designed one. My dream is to submit it to a publisher one day.

38. I miss the coffee carts in Montana where I lived for a year.

39. I scored in the top 1% of all students in the U.S. in English on the SAT test when I was 15.

40. I have Native American ancestry (my great grandmother was Cherokee but we don't have her birth certificate so I have no proof for any reason). I still go to pow-wows whenever I can.

41. I get the irony of that because of Custer in the family tree.

42. Astrology (real astrology, not newspaper horoscopes) fascinates me.

43. I can type 120 words per minute

44. I've been able to play piano "by ear" since I was 2 years old.

47. My dad does woodworking as a hobby and to this day, every time I smell cedar or fresh-cut pine I think of him.

48. I don't know anything about cars and could barely change the oil if you asked me to. I wish I knew more about how mine worked in case of an emergency.

49. My license plate says WEBDESNR. I pulled into a gas station once and the lady at the desk thought it read "We Bed Sinners"

50. I collect patches from places I've visited.
