Ferdie Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 (edited) I am obsessed with Dancing With the Stars TV show, yet we don't have a TV. I stay up late every Monday night and watch it on YouTube. On Tuesday mornings my kids spend their break time watching my favorite dances from the night before. Weird, huh?

Mom to Aly Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I have met David Bowie 7 or 8 times in my life, once standing in line in front of a building while waiting for it to open in Paris--we talked for more than half an hour. I didn't realize until we were about to go in who he was (he told me--I didn't notice the bodyguards until he pointed them out). I'm not a fan of his music. Â I've seen Rick Springfield in concert 19 times (I was a huge fan!). Never met him :(. Â A woman on a train in India tried to trade four chickens, a pig and a donkey with my mother for my hand in marriage to her son (she had all but the donkey with her--my mom said no :)). The woman still offered to share her lunch with us. We said no. Â The Mona Lisa does nothing for me. I really don't care why she is smiling. I don't think it is a great smile, either. Â I, at one time in my life, owned 21 birds, 14 cats, and one rabbit. And one xh. I'm now down to 2 dogs and 4 cats. And one dd :). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 These are soo interesting, and some are so funny! What a great thread.  About me  Ok, (deep breath) even husband doesn't know this... I sucked my thumb until I was 25. Pretty sad, huh? I decided I needed to break the habit before my first son was born, as it would be a little *extra* embarrassing to be doing it then.   And that, folks, is my deepest, darkest, most embarrassing secret. Well, one of them, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Wow! I never knew I had so much in common with y'all! I too was a punk rock kid AND loved serial killer lore up until I had kids. Then I sorta lost the taste. I used to work in District Court records for the county I live in and my favorite lunch hour treat was snooping through the evidence vault. You find some crazy things in there. Suitcases in which bodies have been found, walkers used as weapons, plaster casts of sensitive male body parts. Wow! I loved and miss that job sometimes!

astrid Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Before my eyes went bad I used to do a lot of embroidery. I particularly liked enjoyed Hardanger embroidery. Here is a link to what it looks like, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Hardanger.png When I went to Saudi I took a ton of Irish linen and a table cloth to embroider. That is what I did in the small amount of free time I had. Kind of ironic in a way fighting a war while hand embroidering tulips on a table cloth. So I guess I am a living breathing paradox :001_smile:  HARDANGER EMBROIDERY! I'm addicted to it. LOOOOVE it.

percytruffle Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 These are great fun to read! Here's mine: Â I've never told you all that I won Best Printmaking in the student art show my senior year of college. The art department faculty hung my work (a series of silk screen prints that hung together) on the main wall as you entered the arts center. The ptb wanted it moved because it was of a nude and the college was Catholic. The art department refused. The prints stayed front and center. :D Â Also, I modeled for a newspaper ad for the jewelry store I worked at in college. I still have the clipping of me in a mink coat and mucho diamonds! There were also back-lit transparencies of me that hung on the wall in one of their stores at a mall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTMindy Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Let's see....there isn't much exciting about me, but my dirty little secret for the month is that I am currently addicted to the Netflix reruns of the show Friday Night Lights!!

CactusPair Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 (edited) I started college on a theater scholarship, but dropped out of the acting program after a year because I hated pretending to be someone else--especially in front of an audience. Total 180 from high school. Â I flunked chemistry in highschool and got D's in math, but managed to do well on the ACT. Â I worked at McDonald's as a teen and was so bad at my job for the first year I was kept at 8 hours a week. They were probably hoping I'd just quit. I needed more money, so I worked a 2nd part time job. I later became a trainer at McDonald's when I reached McPar status. Â I had a crush on the dog trainer last spring, which I think was mutal. Â I had to reprint my wedding invitations 4 times because of changes in plans or family annoyances about wording. Jeesh!

I used to blow balloons up with my nose (to help clear the fluid that was causing my deafness). Â 4. I sprained my right ankle three times -- 6th grade, 9th grade and 12th grade. I was worried when I was a junior in college. :) Â 5. I sleep with a fan, a night guard (NTI) and I need total darkness. Â 6. I did two beer bongs straight when I was underage. I also drank 5 shots of tequila on another occasion. Â 7. I seriously think I saw/spoke to an angel when I was in college. Â 8. I spent one year in serious Bible study/ministry as an intern in a para-church organization after I graduated from college. It was called "Eagle's Nest."

Â My sisters used to make me puke just by saying or doing something that would gross me out. I think I was 17 or 18 last time they made me puke. Â Both my husband and I graduated from Columbine High School. Â I used to be addicted to true crime books, and a lot of them were serial killer books as well, although my favorite was Anne Rule.

Needleroozer Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Shoot, I'm glad you think it's a porcupine. I couldn't tell for sure and I didn't want to set Motorcycle Mama off in a rage because it was a hedgehog and not a porcupine. :001_tt2: Â :lol::lol::lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Needleroozer Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 :lol:I had you pegged as a crazy hippy right from the start, LB! :lol: Â Now I have to go back and visit our porcupines at the zoo! Your nose looked fine to me - I didn't know you could squoosh it. Does it hurt? Â This thread is so much fun. I've started "files" on all of you (muhahaha). People really eat banana/mayo sandwiches? My mom eats peanut butter and pickles so I won't say anything else. :001_smile: Â Yeah, you know me too well, Amy. And no, it doesn't hurt- it smooshes really easily.:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tibbyl Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 (edited) To while away the time when driving, I mentally total the digits in license plates. I "win" if the sum of digits equals my birthdate. For plates with letters, I sequentially assign numbers to the letters. Â At boring corporate events, I estimate the square feet of room by estimating s.f. of one tile, then count or estimate number of tiles needed to cover room floor space.
