Hi, I'm Julia and I'm from the same city as the Kentucky Derby. I'm 20, have 2 dogs, 4 cats, and a boyfriend as well as roommates. All of them might as well be my children. I like to clean when I'm pissed, cook, paint, make clothes, fix up my house, and other generally creative activities. I'm a suspicious person by nature and tend to have a morbid sense of humor....all o which I blae on my mother.:bounce:

Thanks, I've been lurking for two days and reading all the interesting stories to fuel more paranoia on my behalf...

Love the name ARedRouletteKiss (come on, you know we'll shorten it right?)! Red? RedKiss? Kiss? RR? ARRK? hmmm....

Welcome to D'D! I've been here a few months now fueling my paranoia too. You'll find that you actually become more aware and that feeling subsides cuz you get to let all that shit out in your posts and you don't have to keep it bottled up. It's very liberating! You'll see!

Spanking New:
To those of us of a certain age the word brand turns our thoughts to Hollywood B-features and images of cowboys branding cattle on the open range. That's not the origin of this phrase, but it's not a million miles away in terms of meaning. A hot burned wooden stake has been called a brand since at least 950 AD. To brand means to 'make an indelible mark of ownership', especially with a hot stake or iron. This verb usage has been known since the Middle Ages and is clearly derived from the earlier name (we might say brand name - but we'll come to that later).
The earliest citation of 'brand new' is in John Foxe's Sermons, 1570:

"New bodies, new minds and all thinges new, brande-newe."

Thanks for the meaning of my thread title mamasweets, and I am looking forward to expanding my paranoia especially since I have abot 65 sexual offenders located within a few blocks of my new home, and I'm from a virtually crime free county. Although we did make big news with the David Camm murders. I'm not all new to idiots though, I got mugged by an two men last year who messed with the wrong girl, and managed to have parked right in front of a undercover police officer. That was last year, and one of the most amusing nights of my life truthfully.
