Random Pieces of Trivia About Yourself...
« on: September 16, 2013, 10:08:00 PM »
Little idea I had for a game...each player tells a little-known (So far) fact about themselves. 
Like this...
Player 1: (Random thing)
Player 2: (Replies to that, and adds their own piece of trivia)
and so on...

I'll start:

I'm (Sorta) a boat owner...

When I was born I had jet black hair but that fell out (which is normal for babies I was told) then i got bright blonde hair at the normal age to grow hair and then it turned a light brown color by the time I was in grade school. In the sunlight my hair appears dirty blonde but it's really a mix of all different shades of brown. When I get a haircut some of the hairs are dark, almost black, others are really light brown, others medium brown. So I have like tri-tone hair or something lol...

My hair was bright blonde then blonde then dirty brown. It still is but some of it still grows blonde lol

We've never used the C7 Christmas lights and I've never seen a home use them. :(

I like the Incandescent C7's and C9's they may die faster but they give off way better color than the LED lights. You never seen them in use at all?  :o I don't want a beard so im not participating in no shave November :P

Yeah the LEDs flicker and it looks so unnatural. Plus the LEDs don't give off that warm inviting color that the incandescents give off.

Iwasn't going to do no-shave november but my friends kept telling me i should so i figured what the heck lol. I'll ge getting rid of it come december though... everyone keeps telling me i look "badass" with facial hair lol. I'm not sure yet if i quite like the look lol.

Once C7 and C9 LEDs burn out there are no replacement bulbs available for them. All the blue on our icicle lights are dead. Blue LED's never seem to live at my house. Yeah they are cold when you put your face on them. (only I would be random enough to do that)

I don't like the feeling of facial hair  :(

Well if I ever wanted to grow one I want it to be fancy and classy  :D

I like the vivid colors of LED lights but as for "welcoming-ness" I prefer C7s.

It get REALLY depressed sometimes. Suicidal even sometimes. Right now I'm depressed but it's more of a stress/confusion depressed rather than a sad depressed. I'm trying to make sense of some things I've found out about someone and it's a little agonizing... I tend to overthing things a lot though, especially when it comes to people of the opposite gender lol. I need not say more. :P
