10 Things You Wanted to Know about me(?)
14 years ago
General
Was Tagged By Strident Weasel to do this list. I won't tag anyone else, but if you want to post a similar journal, feel free too.
1. I came from a very small town (population 2,000) in NW Kansas. And even though I've lived in a big city for the past 6 years, I still feel small townish. Hate traffic, big crowds, etc.
2. Have never eaten Lettuce, Salad, Onions, aka most vegetables. Well, actually I did eat them once when I was like 3, vomitted and have't gone back to them since. Luckily I do love fruits otherwise I'd probably be 300 pounds by now.
3. Played Tennis in high school and actually wasn't too bad at it. I'll say I was mediocre, but thats great compared to everything else athletically that I've attempted.
4. In high school my junior year, I was the lead role in the play we did......because the guy who was supposed to be the lead got drunk at dress rehearsal and feel through a glass door. Fun being the understudy, especially since I didn't know the lines and had to read them during the play. Good times.
5. I own a 7 Foot long Great White Shark plushie that you can sleep inside of. Does this really surprise anyone?
6. When I can, I prefer to walk around barefoot. My feet have taken so much abuse I could probably walk on hot coals by now.
7. Have never been fired from a job. *knocks on wood*
8. By every means I am a retro gamer. Own a decent amount of NES, SNES and Genesis games, and even new games that I buy these days are either rehashes of classics (Super Mario 25th Anniverary for Wii) or rhythm guitar games (Rock Band 3). So if you want to strike up a conversation about Video Games with me, the game in question better be before 2000.
9. For as big as I nerd that I am, there are two very geek things that I'm not remotely into: DND(or games like it) and Star Trek. Just no desire for either of those two. Strange, considering how much of a Star Wars nerd that I am.
10. Ok, I'm really reaching for this one, since I've been thinking about it for the last 15 minutes. The only brush with greatness that I have is meeting Mike Reno, lead singer of the 80's group Loverboy after a concert in Missouri. Incredibly nice and funny guy. Oh, and he still rocked the house too. Love the 80's and 90's music. 70's rock is great too.

I've seen pictures of those Shark plush sleeping bags before. They look pretty cool! (Didn't know you were into that kind of thing though... I'm not, but they still look pretty cool!)

The shark is damn big too. Always going to be interesting whenever I move, lugging that thing around. XD. Though it will be probably at least two more years until I move.

Well, if anything its a shark sleeping bag. Though you can certainly snug and lean up against the thing.

Surrounded by it sounds better!

Oh yes, yes it is. Many many cat naps have been inside of that thing....or if anything, my head sticking out of it. Hard to breath in that thing! XD

Can't imagine much air makes it into a shark's belly!

I once met Jesse Ventura as he was running for governor of MN. Not that I knew what he had been originally known for at the time, but still. :-P
