Cravings, dreams, and other things....

Cravings as of late: Chocolate milk (strange one, because I normally hate milk), pickles (it's true, I swear!), meat of any kind, cheetos, and Kraft mac n cheese (in the blue box!)

You know how dreams become more intense during pregnancy? Well, I had a doozy last night! I won't go into detail, because it will make me blush! But let's just say that I woke up with a grin on my face, and it was way better than the other dreams that I've been having during this pregnancy!!
__________________________

5. I used to smoke. I started when I was 20. It was a joke. But I got hooked. I smoked off and on for 8 years or so. During my worst, I was at a pack a day. It's a gross habit, but I have to admit, I still miss it sometimes.

6. I have a tattoo on my hip. And I realize that it will probably be stretched beyond recognition if this pregnancy continues. It's of a wilting daisy. The idea was that opportunities in life are like daisies, when one wilts, there's usually another around he corner. It was a gift for my 22nd birthday. I was so young and naive then. So I guess now it probably means that my innocence is like my daisy...wilted away.

7. I have two cats. The older one is 12 years old, a calico named Britches. She's a bit of a grump sometimes, but we've been through a lot and I love her. The younger one is 3 years old, named Godiva. She's mostly black but has a red undercoat because her mother was a Siamese. So she looks chocolate in the sunlight. She's spunky. In many ways, she has the personality of a Siamese. She is a big talker, and has a very expressive tail. Oh, and dh does NOT like cats!

8. I am now a very boring person. Hee hee. After reading some of the things that I've done in my past, I realize that I've really settled down!! Dh and I don't even go out except for dinner!! I'm in bed by 9 PM every night!! I think that I need to get a life!!!

Oh, those dreams...I know whatcha mean ;)
Sound like good cravings. I actually ate brownies and pickles together with my first pregnancy. This time around I crave, but can't eat. *sigh*
I, too, have settled down in my "old age" but that's ok, I suppose. We're going to be mommies. (Aren't we Lucky Rocky Charm?, tell your momma you're sticking around)

Christine!
This is TOO funny! Well, I didn't have the noose with the peace sign (hee hee)
but I too smoked for 7 years, and I'll admit it, even though I haven't smoked a single cigarette in 4 yrs, sometimes I miss it too! Isn't that horrible!
I have a tatoo on my right ankle. Its a gecko. I HAD two cats until I became too allergic to care for them anymore so we gave them to a hippy college girl who just adores them. They're much happier now anyway, I'm sure of it!
I also went to a private school (lutheran) from K-8th grade with a whopping graduating class of 16!
And you think YOU'RE boring!
On the rare (RARE) occasions we can go out without Logan, we're STILL home and in bed by 10:30! I'm telling you, if you're already boring, parenthood won't be too much of a change for your social life! ha ha!!
I LOVE learning about you, and how similar we really are!
I would have never guessed! ;)

It's amazing how much we all have in common!

I have to admit - I used to smoke too! From about 18 until I was 30! Now I'm one of those mean "get out of my face with your nasty cigarette" type people.

I have a tattoo of a sun on my left shoulder blade. I was 21 and couldn't imagine that I would ever outgrow wanting a tattoo... hmmm... I was wrong!

AND - I have a cat named Dilin AND my DH not only doesn't like having pets, but is allergic to cats. It was almost a deal breaker with us at first! Dilin has been with me longer than DH though, so she gets to stay and I think he's finally coming around.

We all have to settle down eventually - that doesn't make you boring silly!

Gee, not sure I fit in. Never smoked - No tatoo's (Though I have always wanted one but too chicken to really do it. I also have never found the "right" one) - No cats (more of a dog person)
I am boring though! News @ 10:00 then lights out!!

Oh speaking of tatoo's my DH is loking for one in memory of his friend who passed. John Deere tractor, anyone ever see anything like that?
