20 Things About Luvvie
Today’s the wrap up of “Getting to know Luvvie” Week. Back in like January, this 25 things list was ALL the rave on the interwebs. I got tagged to about 89 of them on Facebook and I’m being a slacker and reposting sharing this with y’all.
1. I don’t get mad easily at all but when I do, I sometimes shut down and don’t say A WORD. You can almost see a gray cloud over my head. One of the few times you will not see me smiling. However, when I get irate, enraged, pissed the hell off, it’s like a volcano erupts. Not pretty.
2. I am undercover sap and I really love gestures of love, affection and appreciation. I love cheesy, sappy music and ballads. AND I’m really sensitive. My feelings can get hurt easily by those that I love. I just don’t say when I’m hurt.
3. I write better than I speak. And communicate better in the written word than the spoken.
4. Compliments make me smile and blush (like for real). Brown people can indeed blush and turn red.
5. I go by 3 names equally and sometimes confuse myself because I forget what I introduce myself to people as. I just run down all three names until they find the one that sounds familiar. All 3 names have something to do with “Love”.
6. I wear hats probably 75% of the time (especially newsboys), and I’m pretty sure my hat game is better than yours lol. Besides, it makes it easier for me not to comb my hair often 
7. I’m afraid of the dark. Yes, I admit it. I sleep with either the TV on, or the light on. For me to sleep in pitch black, someone else must be laying next to me holding me REAL tight.
8. I get scared easily and will not watch horror movies. Last time my friends dragged me to one was in high school, to see “The Others”. Spent the entire time with my hands covering my face. Oh and if I’m forced to watch a horror flick, just know that I’m sleeping in your bed that night.
9. I don’t know how to bike, skate or drive. Seems that I’ve never been a “wheels” type of person. But I will be learning to drive this year. I promise.
10. I didn’t get chicken pox until the week before my 8th grade graduation. There are visible spots on my face in my graduation pic and my Whitney Young freshie year ID.
Created using Wordle.net11. I used to bite my nails when I was nervous, and just recently stopped. Slightly because of vanity reasons. I don’t want my nail beds to look like certain people’s where they got half a nail left. Eeeewwwww!!!
12. I truly do believe that the Lord knew what he was doing when He decided to not give me a big, ridiculous donk. I would TRULY act a fool with it, wearing inappropriate shit like dukes in the winter. Like for real. And I’d be all “But you’re speaking to me and you clearly see that my ass has its own zipcode.” I’d be turrble.
13. I have 3 extra teeth in my mouth (not counting my wisdom teeth). Can’t you tell from my BIG AIM smile? Dentist: “Well at least you have extra. Some folks don’t have enough.” Me: “Who doesn’t have enough teeth? Crackheads??”
14. I’ve witnessed childbirth 3 times, and it is the most beautiful yet disgusting thang. This is also the reason why I’m soooo straight on THAT for at least 4 years. The Gift of life is not a pretty sight. I do have a special bond with each of the kids I’ve seen being born though. Tooni, Kami and Kayla are indeed my hearts.
15. I’m the person you want to be with during high stress situations because I truly don’t panic easily. I’m eternally calm while everyone else around me freaks out. Why else do you think I’ve seen 3 kids being born?
16. I’m a chronic Tardy McLaterson. I don’t know how to be on time to nothing. Shoot, I was even born 2 weeks late (my Mom told me so). But I’m seldom late to work.
17. I think my friends are TRULY some of the funniest people EVER! As in some of them could be stand up comedians and be successful at it. The ish they say sometimes has my stomach hurting. If foolishness was a crime, my IGs would be doing 45 years to life with no possibility of parole.
18. I lack a great attention span and sometimes when people are talking to me, I drift but look like I’m paying attention. By the time I pay attention again, I may have missed half the convo and could probably not repeat most things they said. It’s a shame that I got the span of a goldfish (3 secs)
19. I can draw. Really well.
20. I feel sooo BLESSED with where and who I am. Thank you, LORD!
So, do y’all feel me on any of these? Let me know which numbers matches you.

that happy bunny poster is the first thing you see when you walk in my room. we're soulmates.
We have item #2 in common but I'm gangsta so don't be spreadin that around and we also have #9 in common, partially-I can't ride a bike. And #20, though I am a work in progress I have come along way and I truly can say that I am blessed!
Happy bunny! Love that toon! Antyway. . .
We have #s 2 (not doing a good job @ keeping undercover lately though, haha), 3 (written word doesn't allow for stammering as I do when I am flustered), & 18 (I have to ask, "wait! what did you just say?" at least thrice a day) in common.
cool list!
2, 3, 8, 18, and 20 are me too! I'm sooooo bad with 18 its ridiculous. I swear I have adult ADHD. LOL
about 15….I'm a right on time person, not late or really early. I'm actually lat to work every day. well we have a 10 min window and I'm usually rolling in around 8:37. LOL.
I'm with you on 10 and 11. I was in the 7th grade when I got the pox and told my mom I had it. I'm opposite on 13, I was born with 2 fewer teeth than others. They weren't in my jaw. I've rocked a nice gap my whole life as a result.
I'm with you on number 14. I was forced dto watch natural childbirth for a college health class or something (it was a while ago). I got light-headed and the floor slanted some and i knew i was a goner. I absolutely lost my nature for 7 days. I'd recommend that course for birth control education. Ugh!
I'm wit you on 3, 15, 19 and 20. Never seen a child being born but I'm the calmest person in the craziest situations. My friends always look at me like…why you ain't freakin out like e'rybody else?
Yer Most Excellent Awesomelynessis,
Or: Galileo was WRONG. The Universe revolves around ME!
Seriously though, have enjoyed this week ‘getting’ ta know ya’.
Now, only 3 matches:
#2; by huge margin. I’m so soft of heart my momma always told me I’d spend my life hurt if I didn’t learn myself better, lol.
#14; but different because they was all MINE!
#16; LOL! That is SO me! Career, very important stuff, yes, I’m there. Social, oh wow, people have done left me before, lol!
Now, about #12 – No Comment; about you. But for me, well girl, just HOW that one gonna work on a Lite Bread, lol!
Haha, reading this was fun.
#1 – Is most definitely me. I'm laid back during most situations, so when I DO get mad, it is a fug situation.
#2 – Aww, I'm a sap too. It's only undercover to folks who don't really know me, though. lol
#3 – Me, too, to a TEE. I came outta the womb with a notepad and pencil.
#9 – I still can't drive either. My ol' arse. It gets on my nerves, too. I think it was because the lack o' men in my childhood. But, I have someone about to teach me in a min. I shant go another year without having a dig dang license. I usually use the excuse that I'm too po' to have a car anyway, so what's the point. Well, the point, is that I can drive someone else's car. lol I can bike and skate, though.
#14 – I've witnessed it once. Which was enough. Didn't see the natural ish, though. My sis had to have a C-section. But her pain leading up to the epidural was HELL for me. I was crying and ish.
#16 – I'm the exact opposite actually. I HATE being late (unless it's a place where I've grown comfy enough to waltz in late). Before cell phones, I used to wear a watch all the time, but now I don't because there's time on the phone. I'm neurotic about being on time, though, if important enough.
YESSS! The happy bunny is awesome in his angst xD
Ur thug-tivity is safe with me. Wont tell NObody!
Glad you feel me!
LOL I think I also have a mild case of Adult ADHD. What is we gon do?
Gurl I gotta get all them teefs removed. Dentist said they crowding my jaw, although I have straight teef. a dilemma.
LOL @ losing your nature. Yeah seeing childbirth live was another form of birth control for me. The things the human body can do…
Yup!!! As much *wall sliding* as I do on my blog, Im actually much calmer when situations gets stressful
*dead* at "my momma always told me I’d spend my life hurt if I didn’t learn myself better"
YAYYYY!!! U get me, Cheekie!
Are you a leo? We could possibly be sisters from another mother….lol.. I hope all is well.
PS,
U will be learning how to drive in the best city to learn but so be careful…:)
I'm late, but #3 is sooooo me! I'm more verbose when I write than I am when I speak.
And I used to bite my nails when they got to a certain length just because…
#15 applies to me as well…I'm usually the one providing comic relief…
Gurl… I think we are twins separated at birth!
Are you a Gemini?
No ma'am! I'm a Capricorn
YESSS!! That means you rock!
Hehe! I'm a Capricorn. And Chicago driving is scary @ me. EEK!
