Meme: 8 Things You Didn’t Know About Me
January 18, 2008
Tag:No TagsA while back, I was tagged by some kind soul to share 8 things you didn’t know about me. It’s high time I participated in one of these meme posts, so here goes:
- I speak Italian. After living in northern Italy for 3 full years as an adolescent, I was almost fluent.
- I was a track star in high school. Cross country too. I was fast and I could run for hours without tiring. I have creaky knees to show for it too.
- I once owned an online, home-based hosiery business. Some of my best customers were men. Large men.
- I invent things. Over the years I’ve created many sketches, “prototypes” and models. Someday, I’m going to bring something wonderful to the marketplace!
- My favorite flavor of ice cream is Ben & Jerry’s Chunky Monkey.
- I was painfully shy up until age 14 or so.
- I never dated ANYONE longer than 3 months. As a matter of fact, by the time I’d been seeing my husband for 3 months, we were already engaged and living more than 2,000 miles apart from each other.
- I have really wide-set eyes. I used to work in a medical lab with 2 other women and 14 men. There were some big men in the group, with large heads. Still, anytime someone had to use a microscope after me, they always had to adjust the oculars inward.
So now you know. Fascinating, huh?
