30 facts about me. #TMITuesday
12 years ago
Because I'm bored and other people were doing it.
1. I got mauled by a dog and didn't tell anyone for three days. I only spoke up because the wound on my arm became infected.
2. I am allergic to pineapple, and my roommates found out the hard way. I also cannot eat eggs, or else I vomit.
3. I have never been outside of North America, however I was once temporarily on Canadian soil when I got lost driving around Buffalo, NY.
4. My biggest fears are deep, open water and scorpions.
5. When I was a child, my biggest fears were long stairs and the uppercase letter Q.
6. I find new knowledge tends to force out knowledge out of my brain. For instance, I can no longer write in anything other than cursive. Likewise, I can calculate the size of fuel tank the Space Shuttle would need to reach the speed of light in my head, but I cannot do simple division without the use of a calculator.
7. The fastest way to my heart is through my stomach. I'm particularly fond of Mexican food and gummy bears/worms.
8. When I lived on the family farm, I had a pet cow I raised from birth. Years later, I was charged with slaughtering it.
9. I shower several times a day, and wash my hands compulsively.
10. I once ran for a seat in the Florida State House of Representatives from the Florida Pirate Party.
11. Towards the end of high school, I was in a polyamorous relationship with a guy and his girlfriend who liked to watch.
12. I have absolutely atrocious handwriting.
13. I have a tendency to hurt myself a lot. Most of the time, it's a result of me simply not paying attention.
14. I like cooking, but have a.... complicated relationship with stoves and hot pans.
15. I genuinely enjoy the process of cleaning my apartment.
16. I am very outwardly affectionate.
17. I was once pulled over when a trooper saw my pup hood in my back seat and thought it was a severed dog head.
18. I once had sex with my cousin from Israel. In my defense, at the time, I didn't know he was my cousin. We did fool around several times after the fact.
19. I received my first kiss when I was 14 in the back of a Sears from the son of a local Methodist minister.
20. My worst injury was 3rd degree burns over both of my hands that dramatically altered my fingerprints. I could not manipulate small objects or utensils for two months.
21. When I graduated high school, I weighed 298 pounds. I now weigh 170, and achieved it through simple diet and exercise. If I can do it, what's your excuse?
22. I firmly believe I will never go bald, as nobody in my family who has reached their elder years has. My great grandfather died at age 84 with 6 1/2 fingers, and a full head of salt and pepper hair.
23. I grew up in an Orthodox Jewish family. I kept kosher until just a few years ago, strictly observed the sabbath rules, and had the beard, suit, fedora and lock to prove it all.
24. I learned how to drive on a John Deere tractor. And yes, I can drive stick.
25. One day, I want to travel to Longyearbyen for the sole purpose of seeing how susceptible I am to cabin fever and seasonal affective disorder.
26. I have published a book that I have never actually read all the way through. Thus are the dangers of writing a book that is longer than your attention span.
27. I have a baby picture of me being held by Ross Perot. He's an old family friend, and yes, he is as weird as you can imagine.
28. I have had sex in the back of a pickup truck. Protip: Don't do it without a blanket or sleeping bag underneath you. Bare metal gets very VERY hot.
29. I had a horse named "Anvol". It was a prod by my family at how I pronounce the word "Anvil".
30. For the life of me, no matter how hard I try, or how much I want to, I genuinely and truly cannot understand Cricket.
