I'd say bold, sexy, funny.  I've never met you in real life so I'm taking my impression from your blogs/tweets/fb posts... I think people miss the mark on me all the time. Maybe it's because I have an outside persona that most people only know about. I'll bet anyone from my hometown would tell you I'm outgoing, funny, and smart. They'd say that because I was always the girl in the dance classes, cheerleader squad, doing all the extracurricular activities. Weird thing was I liked the attention, but didn't. If I were to answer (and be totally honest), I'd say I'm shy, neurotic, and funny (I don't deny that I like to make people laugh). Love the posts!   Hi Twanna… 3 words to describe you..

I'm surprised that so many of you did it, and even more surprised how incredibly accurate many of you were. I've said it before and I'll say it again: FBC readers are the best readers on the internet!!! I feel very lucky to have you. <b>Howard</b>: I am, indeed, funky. I can be described as "brown".

Yeah, at first I was completely freaked out by the idea of in-person "blogger / reader meetings". I used to be 100% against them. However, over the past two years, I've done quite a few of them and it's been great. Lemme see ... So far, I've met 12 - 15 folks in person. And, I've liked them all. Interestingly enough ... they've all been fellow bloggers. (I've never agreed to meet anyone who was a reader who didn't blog.) <b>Andy</b>: (Over)intellectual? I'd expect nothing less from a man who majored in philosophy in college. :-) <b>Papigiulio</b>: You know what, I *should* bring back the underwear posts or something else for the fellas. I used to keep it fairly even (i.e. mention a guy for the ladies, post sexy underwear for the fellas), but I've been slacking. Hmmm ... I have to think of a "womanly" idea for the blog. <b>Lala</b>: I think Andy got me right, too. I don't think I'm a dumbass and I do tend to stick up for myself. Now, this self-assured stuff? I don't know. I certainly have moments where I feel completely and hopelessly insecure. The more I want somethung, the more insecure I am about it. <b>distar</b>: There's nothing wrong with being a *little bit* snobby. As long as it doesn't go too far. <b>Mitch</b>: I missed you!!! We sooo need to get you hooked up with someone. Wait a minute. What am I talking about?!?! Why do I care about your situation? *I'm* single too. Hell, I need to save my pity / frustration for my<i>damn</i>self.
