My husband is ungoogleable too. He has a super common first name and the most common last name in America.
I know this is super late but my H is the opposite. If you google his name, every single link is him.
I am this way too. I have a Hungarian first name and hispanic married name, it's a unique combo. That said, I've shared my name on here and I don't care.
I don't think the hat is that tiny, I think her head is just huge. Thank goodness I didn't push that out. I guess she's a cowboy who likes to read books?
Gah! Stupid crazy work day and cleaning and stuff... I keep trying to respond but then am pulled away.
artgal84, I love coffee, and I love cookie dough, but the idea of them together on a drink skeeves me out. I'll take them separately, though.
I love toddlers dressed in adult clothing. Wedding dresses, police uniforms, scrubs, tuxedos, Old McDonald's dirty overalls... All adorable.
I bought my wedding dress online from David's bridal for $115 shipped. I still have it, but I'm not sure why. I'll probably get rid if it when we move.
I grew up with a Rottweiler that was the nicest dog on the planet. My parents have another Rottweiler now that is the biggest asshole ever. I think it has a lot to do with the individual dog. I still would not let my guard down around the kids.
I get why people would want to keep things private here. I do keep some things private because of my H. He doesn't like sharing certain things, and I respect that (mostly).
Garlic from a jar is amazing for me, the lazy cook.
I don't use my name or DH's name on here, and I don't post his pic or our specific town that we live in. Other than that, I do use my kid's real names and share pics of them. I just don't give too many speicifc details of things that could lead a stalker to me.
Same. I've done one exchange, but even that made me nervous (having someone have my home address). My mom did have a stalker back in the day before the internet, so I'm coming from a place of caution.
My sister's dog brought home a baby raccoon in like 1994, I think. It didn't even have its eyes open yet. It was the most adorable thing ever. We called wildlife preservation people and they told us to try to find the mother. We lived in the middle of nowhere so that wasn't going to happen. Then they gave us a list of wildlife centers we could bring it to. At that point, it was a week or so later and my dad was in love with her. Once she was like 5 or 6 months old, he did try to levee out in the forest really far from the house but she came back a few days later. She was really awesome, like a strange cat, for several years. She was nice to people. The problem was that we couldn't find a vet who would spay her so we had to deal with a wild animal's heat twice a year. We literally had to cage in the house because she tried everything to get out. So she she was 3, she got out. We thought she would never come back but she did - all beat up and very hurt. My dad nursed her back to health but she was different. She became mean. He quarantined her so we knew she wasn't rabid but she just hated everyone except my dad. She lived another 10 years and got really really fat and really really vicious. Vicious like she would attack you if you were within her range. It was scary. I became a pro at evading her and when I did find myself in the same room as her, I became a pro at fighting her off with minimal damage. She did bite me in the face once and I have a little scar for it. My dad had to build metal gates on all the doorways because any kind of 'baby/pet gate', she would climb or eat. It was pretty sad at the end and my dad ended up letting her outside and shooting her (he is a hunter so this is a far fetched thing). It was rough for him because he loved her. He would always say, "she didn't ask for this life".
This seriously about had me ugly crying at my desk and someone walked in and I had to turn around to get my shit together.

OMG @therealmc, that is a interesting and sad story. Wow! Your dad sounds well meaning but you guys were being attacked. You need to add RF to your sn initiates, Raccoon Fighter.
