Things you may or may not know about me

  • I have a huge phobia around bubbles. I am not afraid of them however, I find them repulsive.
  • I am a pool shark - I can beat most of all y'all.
  • I cannot eat anything that is too mushy - whipped cream and mashed potatoes are out. Also, no milkshakes, this is just mushy plus bubbles which is doubly disgusting.
  • I love bunnies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • I have read War and Peace several times and I love it.
  • I didn't know my Dad's real first name till I was nine. His name was Keith but my Mother called him Mike. Actually I have many many family members who we call things other than their real names.
  • When I was 7 I was convinced I knew exactly how to build a fully operational replica of the Loch Ness Monster.

How exactly did you plan to build that fully functional replica of the Loch Ness Monster? Hows about you tell me, we patent it together and then...first billion here we come!!!

Hey I even drew up plans. Then my Mom told me that I'd never be able to do it. I was devastated.

Darn parents and their rational thinking. I'm going to write a book on people who squash dreams.

Anne said...

I'll allow you to write a chapter if you'd like.

Anne said...

Grrr, you write a new blog...then I might consider it

yay! you posted!
how is it possible that I did not know #5 and #7?

the rest I know, and take great pride in knowing. i was actually a little smug about it... smug is a fun word.

Smug is a fun word!
And I knew that you would know almost all of them. Or anything else I chose to put down.
As far as 5 &7 goes, I think it's exciting that there are somethings we don't know. We should find more like that.
