moonflavored

…Hello Fellow Swappers…

I just wanted to finally let everyone know what is going on…

My boyfriend got into a horrible car accident & I have been with him throughout this time. He is getting better everyday though. He will be fine in time. They said he is unbelieveably lucky. We are thankful for his life & a quick recovery this Thanksgiving year. I hope you can understand why your packages are coming late. I know some of them are going out very late. I apologize, but please realize this has been a struggle for us & we are still young, just out of college. Not to sound like a sob story, it is just the truth.

My priorities in life moved swap-bot down a notch or two, but I will get out every swap package I have signed up for so far. I may have to quit after I get these packages out, & focus on my boyfriend & his physical therapy. Maybe I can come back later though.

Thank you so much to everyone for all of their kind words & understanding, you guys are the best!

I Am Moonflavored. Nice To Meet You.

I am funny! I like to laugh, & laugh at my own jokes, & my friends think that's disturbingly hilarious! I love the moon. I go outside & just stare at it sometimes, just moonbathe I guess. I can't help it. It creeps my boyfriend out though. I am fairly random at times. I am a Libra by birth, but a Scorpio by choice-if that makes any sense to you. If it doesn't, sorry, maybe I've read too many astrology books, again... I really like to read a lot of books though, all different. Astrology, Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Fiction, Make Up Books, Non-Fiction, Craft Books,Artwork Books-Yoshitaka Amano & I Spy Books are the ones I've got my nose in mostly... I weigh the pro's & con's of every detail before I make a decision, & it seems like I am procrastinating, & maybe sometimes I am. I have been with my high-school sweetheart for 7 years. We are trying to move to California, for his job, & we don't like Texass very much. He designs, sculpts, paints & makes masks for horror movies & makes custom masks, plus other horror stuff (Need a SCARY HALLOWEEN MASK???). We get to travel sometimes, because of his work. He is a hard worker, a little demanding, & always smiling. He says it was love at first sight, & I believe him. He is perfect for me, he is my BEST friend, he motivates me, he loves me for who I am, he always cooks & cleans, !he listens! & cares, he does everything he can to make me happy, we compromise, we help each other, we grow together, we love eachother... On a less sappier note, I guess I'm pretty boring, actually, in a fun way. I'm up for anything but can always easily entertain myself. I like to buy those ugly "Bubba Teeth" in gumball machines & wear them when I'm driving. Then look over at people at stop lights & smile at them when they notice me. I act sad & try to hide my teeth if they laugh.( I told you I'm funny... ) I guess I do it to teach people not to laugh at another's misfortune, really. But I still find other people's reactions funny. You should try it.

Yup, this will probably be updated constantly...
