Please Be Patient, My Blog Friends

I know, you KNOW I have the results. But I've been swamped and away from the computer for most of the day. Tonight, we have company coming, so I have to make my little weird house look presentable.

However, I WILL reveal the DNA results - but first, I want you to take one last guess about my heritage.

Remember - I had dark skin and kinky, curly hair as a baby:And later, it got VERY long - as my teeth grew wider and wider apart:I had a tiny, petite, NON-curly haired baby:Who is growing up to look somewhat like me:Oh, yeah - and did I mention that I straighten my hair? I also have NEVER colored or permed it - I'm all natural:Last tips - I'm 5'3" with tiny wrists and long fingers. I gesticulate wildly when I talk. I'm VERY animated.

Now, guess away - one last time!

Italian :-)

I know you were thinking Italian before the test, and that you were hoping Italian after you sent in the test.

I thought you had some Greek in you, and while the physical characteristics are not necessarily associated with Greek, I still think you might have some Greek in you.

Sooooo, perhaps there is both Italian and Greek in you.

willowtree said...

Sounds like someone had some Italian in them....

Sandy said...

just to be different - Portuguese?

Aoj and The Lurchers said...

I would have said Italian too!

theotherbear said...

Is there a curly haired region of Italy? If so I guess there.

Kim said...

If it weren't for the curly hair, I'd say Italian or Greek.

Jewish?

I'm going off the board and saying Egyptian....even though I want to say Italian. You could be a long lost descendant of Cleopatra.

Your baby picture reminds me of my kids' baby pictures. Even down to the white mommy! ;)

Puerto Rican?

If we guess right, do we get two free nights in your new house? How about if we guess wrong? Am I begging too obviously? Is that so wrong? ;)

Kaytabug said...

Yeah your baby photo looks like a black/white baby. I also think Melissa is right. But just to guess something slightly different I think you are from Mexican decent.
I have not a clue anymore and am just eager to find out!!

BS said...

some type of Latin descent

Kila said...

Gosh, don't know, I was thinking a wonderful mixture of black and white and Lord know what else! (Mostly plain white folks around here, so I don't have much for comparison.) The Lord knew the right ingredients for perfection :)

I think you look Canadian to me.

Claudia said...

you, darling, are hot-blooded and either Hispanic or Italian!

bichonpawz said...

I am going to say Indian. You have great hair....and contrary to popular belief, there really are Indian women with curly / wavy hair!!

So let's hear it, girl!!!

Schmoop said...

Bella!! That second picture is adorable. Cheers Tigger!!

Desert Songbird said...

Oooo, here's a thought --- what about Lebanese?

Aoj and The Lurchers said...

Tigger, completely irrelevant to this blog but following your question on my blog about Pentax lenses, I have been passed this link for you.

Hope it helps!

No idea.

Do you find it is hard to talk if you can't use your hands? I do.

American Indian? Spanish? No matter what, dude, you are one hot mamma!

Guess #1 - Creole? Guess #2 - Greek; Guess #3 - Turkish

Memphis said...

You are the long lost daughter of Mickey Dolenz of The Monkees!

Seriously, Italian or Hispanic comes to mind. I'm thinking Italian.

But I think Mickey Dolenz is much cooler. I want a ride in the MonkeeMobile if it's true. You know that car was a '66 GTO heavily modified by the same guy who built the old Batmobile? True dat.

Wow! I've not visited in way too long. And sorry for that. Stuff and madness and what not.

BTW, Happy New Year, and thanks for continuing to visit my blog while I've been finding my way again.

Anyway, I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to hear your results. I won't guess though, 'cause I always guess wrong.

karisma said...

You definitely look Italian now. You have a strong resemblance to someone I know, she is adopted but found out her mother was Italian. Looking at the baby pictures you do look like you could be black/white mixture. But then lots of European kids look dark when they are little.

Either way, you are beautiful and so is your daughter.

Tiggerlane said...

Results are posted! Oh - and melissa? You can come to the house, anytime!

I don't know "what" you are but you certainly have your mothers eyes. Your mom was pretty and I must say you are too :-)

Tiggerlane said...

sirdar - well, considering I'm adopted, that's quite an accomplishment! I think my mom is gorgeous - and it's odd that the shape of our eyes is similar at all...isn't it?

Anonymous said...

I knew you were adopted...but I should have put a winking face on the end of my comment. But really, you and your adoptive mom do have similar eyes. :-)

Tiggerlane said...

sirar - yeah, you got me! And I think you're right - the shape is kinda the same...it's the twinkle, maybe?
