Day 3: Your first love

First love is complicated subject. I think that what most people think of as their first “love” is not “love” at all. This may not be true…. But it is my experience.
                In my mind my first love was my husband. Maybe was isn’t the right word. He IS my first love. He is an amazing man. He goes above and beyond to treat me like a princess. He isn’t perfect, I’m not perfect but I honestly believe that are imperfections are what make us so perfect for each other.

Day 2: Meaning behind your blog name

My blog's name is pretty self explanatory, if you have been reading my blog since I started it (wait do people read my blog??) you would know that it started out just being about Spiky! Since then it has evolved to a bunch of random chatter.

31 Day Blog Challenge Day 1: Introduce, recent picture of yourself, 15 interesting facts


I warned you I was probably going to suck at this challenge. So here we are on March 2, and I am just now doing Day 1 of the challenge, which means I have to go and do two days worth of Challenges in one day!
To introduce myself... I am Spike's Mom... I am the stepmom to The Boy, The Gooze and The Bug. and yes that is what we call them 85% of the time. I work in a city located in the north-central region of the Gulf of Mexico doing police dispatch, 12 hour shifts over night.
15. Interesting facts 
1. I have very few close friends; I always expect them to leave so I don't get close to anyone anymore. 
2. I changed my degree from Graphic Design, to Psychology, spent two years in Psych and decided to drop out of college all together. This is one of the best decisions I have ever made. 
3. I dread the day that the kids decide they want to go to Disney, I do not fare well in the happiest place on earth. 
4. I am the oldest of 5 (7 if you count my stepbrothers)
5. I am slightly misanthropic
6. I have worked with the same people for almost 7 years. I know very little personal information about most of them. 
7. I vividly remember the worst calls I have ever had at work, and still have nightmares about them. 
8. I can't play a single musical instrument (I'm trying to learn guitar) but I can see most songs if they are in the key of A. 
9. My youngest sibling is 6 weeks younger than my son. 
10. Sometimes I am completely overwhelmed being a wife and mother. 
11. I like to take pictures... 
12. I tend to distance myself from people.
13. I lost most of my friends from High School when I started working for a police department. 
14. I am married to my best friend 
15. I was the babysitter.
