Go look at my pictures...my avatar is on my wedding day (Halloween...duh) also need help on IDing my birds. 2 blue bantams.I put pics up in the what am I section. Also pics in this section.
OK, don't know how freaky I would classify as BUT here goes:
I have 6 tattoo's, I am an AVID babywearer (can you say mei tai??), I am almost 40 and STILL like my hair spiked tho I think this year after I turn 40 I will let it be grey for good. Let's see....I am into classic rock, some of the older alternative rock, country, and even some classical. With music it's pretty much all good as long as it's not rap (tho I do like SOME Kid Rock)....
I dunno, maybe I am pretty mainstream but I am the only person I know like me...unless you meet my sister's - they give freak a whole new meaning..
lol i have a few too many and too large tattoos for some folks hehe. i may have overdone it for some folks but heck. as strange as people find it, i'm addicted to subculture
I have very much mellowed out I think. I do have 5 tattoos, my first was at age 16 - my dad got it for my birthday. Guess what my daughter got for her 16th birthday...LOL
My fav band right now and for the past few years is the Ducky Boys - hence the name. I love ducks and I love the Ducky Boys.
I stopped trying to fit in a long time ago.
I also love Zombie movies - the whole family does. My kids appear normal - (although my daughter has those god awful gages in her ears and too many piercings for my taste) but they march to the beat of their own drum. When you homeschool - you don't ever worry about what others think of you. My son is into anime BIG TIME. He can draw anime like a professional cartoonist and he's 10 years old.
His dad and I actually went out to lunch yesterday and he asked us how old he needs to be to get a tattoo.
(I think the going age in this family is 16?) His dad is covered from head to toe with tattoos. Literally. He has a tatt on his head and they go all the way down to his ankles.

In 1960 my older brother dyed his skin green with food color on St. Patrick's day. The minute he started walking into the main corridor at high school, the principal told him to go home and don't come back til he was the "right color" Even bleach water won't take all the green away easily! So when I started high school a couple years later, I only dyed a green streak in my hair so I could hide it when I flipped my head forward and expose the green when I flipped my head backward!
When my sons were in high school in the 80's, the only thing I made them wait on were the tattoos (in case they turned 20-something & decided they wished they hadn't. Older son has six or seven and younger son has seven) and piercing anything but earlobes. Anything they wanted to try in dressing was okay if they could carry it off with the restrictive dress codes in school.
