  • For Fun: I bet I'm the only...

    Took this from another board I post on. Put down anything that you bet is unique to you among people on this board. It was pretty funny all the weird stuff that came out on the other board. Also - if you do something someone has listed, feel free to identify yourself.

    I bet I'm the only med spouse...

    ...who is terrified of butterflies.
    ...who eats hot cocoa dry from packets.
    ...who conceived a baby in Kenya.
    Married to a Urology Attending! (that is an understated exclamation point)
    Mama to C (Jan 2012), D (Nov 2013), and R (April 2016). Consulting and homeschooling are my day jobs.

    ...who traveled abroad at 16 on a dare to a place where I didn't speak the language.
    ...who is terrified to walk on a frozen body of water.

              Who married the first boy she dated. And waited 4 years to kiss him!
              Who managed to compete in powerlifting and synchronized swimming throughout childhood

                    We did not wait 4 years to kiss, but DH is the only person I really dated. (And the reverse is true for him, too.)

                    I bet I'm the only medspouse who...

                    ...can name every member of my state senate.
                    ...has been an extra on a network TV show.
                    ...has never mowed a lawn.
                    ...could play the piano before starting elementary school.

                          Had a squirrel leap at me (I moved quick enough) and now don't like the little bastards.

                          I bet I'm the only medspouse with a lipring.

                              Also never mowed a lawn and never plan on it. DH's only responsibility in the house.

                              I bet I'm the only medspouse who...
                              ...Earned two Master's degrees, one with my mother, both while working.
                              ... Was an extra in a Harrison Ford movie.
                              ...Is missing a bone in my pointer finger so that it curves outward quite far at the tip. Incredibly freaky looking.
