[Fun Facts About SWF]
1. I snort when I laugh. It's a real thing and I don't know how to stop it.

2. I'm deathly scared of completely irrational things like whales, black holes, and feet. Especially MY feet. Socks, shoes, and/or slippers are a constant in my life.

3. I have 3 tattoos and I usually lie about what they're about. It's fun to see what people will actually believe.

4. I lived in Maastricht, The Netherlands for 3 months my junior year of college. I had the opportunity to travel Europe with some amazing people that transformed my life in a major way and created some friendships that will carry until I'm nasty old and covered in wrinkles. From this, I have a thirst for travel and the hope to eventually move back one day. [FYI: I hated putting this, to be honest, because LITERALLY every single person that has studied abroad probably has, at one point or anther, spit out this same exact jargon. However, this is such a huge part of me that it had to make the cut. JUDGE ME.]

5. I don't like to sleep because I always feel like I'm going to miss out on something. I think this could be interpreted into some deeper issue but...WHATEVER GUYS.

6. I am a Christian that strongly supports gay marriage. If ya don't like it, glitter bomb me.

7. I have two roommates. They're a little bit older, kinda bossy, and always leave the kitchen light on for me when I'm out late. Yup...meet my mom and dad, Marie and Steve.

8. I was born in Philadelphia, but don't hold it against me. Total southerner at heart, y'all. I can only pray that I never permanently leave the great state of Texas. I do, however, have a soft spot for the Jersey Shore.

9. I have a furry child named Olive St. John Decker. She is named after the character 'Olive' in my favorite movie, Little Miss Sunshine. [Those red boots really tug at my heart strings.] Her middle name, St. John, is a tribute to one of my best friends who's parents had the foresight to bless her with such a strong middle name.

10. I'm really scared of babies because I think they are going to break and that they will pee on me. I want to like them someday because I feel like this isn't exactly a winning quality.

11. I love to dance even though I lack rhythm. My best move consists of me whipping my hair around. Total white girl move, I know. Two stepping, however, is a completely different story and I still have no clue how my feet are suppose to move. To every guy that has attempted to teach me, I apologize to your toes.

2. Kristina at "SWF"
3. Courtney at "Little Moments"
4. Carissa at "Eskimo Kisses"

I'm a SWF because...I hate commitment.

One of the major reasons that I have fallen in to the SWF genre is that I have an extreme fear of commitment. And it goes beyond relationship stuff. I mean, I have a hard enough time choosing what kind of shampoo to purchase during my weekly Target migration.

Do I want to have smooth, straight locks or the volumizing power of Adele? Cucumber melon or Pomegranate? Two in one or the traditional shampoo?

[Just kidding. No one ever actually chooses that stuff unless they are a 40 year old man. Who lives without the influence of any sort of woman/female/lady/cat].

Even this hypothetical situation is inducing stress.

So I think it is obvious to say that having regular postings?

Never gonna happen.
