My real name is NOT "Mandy", NOR is it "Amanda". My mother

a name remotely like that.

not a "y". In fact I have no
middle name.

Moogiepooser, Mandolin, Mindy Mandy, Fathead, Mando, Mandocommando, Supreme
Ruler of All Beings, Lilac, Puck, Soaring Warrior, Pookie,
Vern and others that I am forgetting right now.
4.
My first pets were NOT two goldfish named Bert and Ernie. In fact nobody trust me with a living thing.
5.
When I was in second grade, I DID NOT signed all of my papers as "Dr.
Smith". I DID NOT wanted to be a brain surgeon so
why would I sign my name doctor smith?
6.
When I was very little, I DID NOT sing and danced to
Michael Jackson's Thriller album and had dreams of being a rock star. I DID sing and dance to it because I wanted
to become a zombie.
7.
I have NEVER dated any guys that start with the letter "J" between
the years of 2005-2007. For some reason
there was a shortage of J named people I hear because some slut was whoring them all to herself.
8.
My first real alcoholic drinking experience was... I don't remember. If you remember it really wasn't a true alcoholic
experience.
9.

Raspberry Swirl, Pumpkin, Oreo, White Chocolate and Raspberry, and Brownie.
10.
I NEVER got a dog in fifth grade. I was
told the dog I wanted was named Yo Semtie Sam Bammer Smith and was
given to a nicer kid than me.
11.
I was an only child until I was born. In
the womb it was just me as far as I'm concerned.
12.
I CAN NOT SPELL 31 of the 50 states.
13.
I am pretty sure I'd pay top dollar for an imaginary pig if it was under the
age of 199 because a 200 year old pig just doesn't interest me. Then I would sell said pig for a higher
price. My sales pitch would be "Wanna buy a second hand pig?"
14.
Junior/senior year of high school and freshman/sophomore year, I wore a trench
coat. Then MANDY tried to one up me, but having a pig theme to hers.
15.
I've secretly always wanted to be a ballet dancer's... overbearing Father who waste their child's fortune investing in an imaginary pig
farm.
16.
I am the first on my mom's side of the family to have an undergrad degree in
Jerk and masters in Jerknessity.
17.
I have not ever had a broken bone (knock on wood). In fact, I have a phobia of
breaking bones, but if you want to break someone else's bones I'm a good person
to call.
18.
I didn't get my driver's license until I was 21 EITHER.
19.
I write poetry, POORLY
20.
I have NOT danced on three different bar tops at three different bars.
21.
I do not even know where Vashon Island in
22.
In my younger years, I spent every summer wishing for school to start again..
23.
My favorite place as a child was a NOT willow tree in my grandparent's
yard. I don't even think I could tell
you if a tree was a willow tree if you're live depends on it so hopefully it
never will.
24.
Every time I passed the pig statue in
25.
Every day, in some small way I am saving the world, BY NOT BECOMING AN EVIL GOD
AND DESTROYING IT

posted my list on mandy's thingy and await her rolling her eyes.
