Monday Mingle (April 5)

by Stefany on April 5, 2010

This week’s questions (submitted by Karie from The Five Fish – thanks Karie!):

1. So you must be a little on the wild side somewhere…how about any tattoos? Piercings? Show us your wild side. If you are free of any taintings do you want any? Piercings or tattoos?

2. Considering the state of our world today what is one thing you might change, suggest, or push for or against if you were to be elected to office?

3. Reminiscing about my impending 10 yr anniversary, can any of you recall your wedding day? Vows? Any funny or memorable moments from your special day?

Wow, so I didn’t realize that the second question would be such a buzz for some people (until I saw other vlogs).  I guess I just don’t get it.  I am not a person that judges others for their political views so it didn’t bother me to say anything.  That said, I don’t even know much about politics anymore.  I just want people to be treated equally.  Ya know?

For more Monday Mingle vlog posts, head over to Eighty MPH Mom!  I PROMISE I will visit more this week!!!

Haha! Most people are. My tats are all pretty hidden if I want them to be. The new J will be the hardest but can be done. My nose ring is super tiny. I am not a flashy person and all my piercings and tats are for me. :)

Yeah, I’m with you. When i was in school I found Spring Break really hard to concentrate too. But I didn’t really know what i wanted to be when I was in college. i know NOW….But then, early 20′s not so much.
I think our weddings were perfect for us. It was what we needed at the time. BEautiful. I like your earring–Wow. You have a ton. And such a cute haircut to sport all your earrings…

What are you going into for school? You might have mentioned it before but I forgot.
Nice mingle. Love your dog…:)
Have a great week!

Yeah, compared to other mingle-ers it does seem like I have a ton, huh? LOL I don’t look freakish though (at least I don’t think so).

I am an RN now. I am finishing my bachelor’s degree and then starting my Master’s degree next year. :)

I was too tired yesterday to do another take! lol . Plus they all come out the same way unless I start cussing.

That is so interesting about the tats. A frog? :) Why did you both choose a frog?
We make our weddings work for us. I don’t remember wanting anything big or splashy. I thought it was a private family affair you know.
While you will be celebrating 7. we’ll be celebrating 6 yrs this year.
I can hear the rain!

It was great to see you again.

Have a joyful week!

The frog tat is because of our last name. It is Thode (duh, right?) and you pronounce the TH like it looks but often people don’t pronounce it that way. They call our last name TOAD. So, it was a fitting tattoo that we both really liked. They were originals for us and no one else has them. :)

I like your last name and do pronounce it right. Isn’t it interesting how 10 people will say your name differently :)

That is fitting indeed and unique too!

I think it’s cool that you and your husband have the same tattoo with different colors. Very neat idea.

A lot of my aunts have tiny nose rings too and I think they’re pretty cute :D I love that you are tatted as well, rock on! My tats are hideable too and I like it that way, it gives me control over who I share that part of me with and I do think that tats are such a personal thing.

7 years is a triumph, heck any length of time without stringing a man up by his heels off the deck is a triumph LOL

Yeah, you learn the names as you get them… or if you are a nurse like me, you know way more than you want to. haha!

I always wanted to get a cartilage piercing. But never really got around to it for some reason. (And I totally had to google what a monroe piercing was – then promptly did a head-smacking *doh!*)

I am with you on the gay marriage, all the way. (And didn’t even think about being controversial until after I posted as well. Whoops!)

Haha! I didn’t even get the correlation with Marilyn at first and I was wondering why they called it that. ;)

Love your piercings and tats! Very cute! I keep thinking I might want a nose piercing sometime too…we’ll see how that goes. :)

I’m with ya on the second question. Could we start a Ban Stupidity movement? That would rock!

Wow, that’s quite the rainstorm in the background! Glad I got to see you this time! Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful week!
