oh fine..
I’ve been tagged twice now (elvira and bluenemesis), with that 16 facts thing. so I kinda feel like i should participate.
1. I like really hot showers. Like melt your skin off hot.
2. My house burned down once. (it’s funny now. kinda. seriously!)
3. I used to be in a punk rock band and the first song we wrote was “He Fucked You And He Gave You AIDS.” It sounds awful but it was a modern day cautionary fable.
4. The first two lines to that song were “He Picked you up in a bar one night, you were higher than a kite.”
5. The drummers husband gave me two tattoos from his homemade gun on the kitchen floor for one case of pilsner.
6. When I went to Stonehenge, I spent more time taking pictures of the sheep on the grounds.
7. I once ran away to Vancouver and stayed in a horrible place called “The Patricia” whose version of room security was a way to padlock the door. Ironically I had brought one with me. Score!
8. Once I thought the girl who would later become one of my closest friends was trying to lure my friend and I into a cult of some kind, though all she really did was try and make us tea. I was doing a lot of acid at the time.
9. The last class of my university career was yet another History of Political Thought class. During said class, quite abrubtly, I realized that we were arguing about the same goddam problems 2000 years ago, and that they were unanswerable. I got up mid lecture and never went back.
10. I played a jilted lover in an independent film
11. I’m 34 but lie to my mother about my smoking. I don’t want her to worry.
12. I dropped out of High School once. My dad would drop me off, and I’d walk in the front of the school and out the back door. He found me. In a burger joint across the street. That was super awesome!
13. The first short story I ever wrote was called “You can only die twice”, and I wrote it for grade 7 Language Arts class. That was the last piece of writing I ever completed, though one of thousands I would start.
14. I fucking hate sudden loud noises. My smoke alarm just went off because it’s extra sensitive, and my knees are still shaking.
15. I am an only child. I very much like it that way.
16. I used to figure skate. And I wasn’t half bad. Now I can barely do back crossovers.
If you’re chuffed, I’d be happy to hear from any of you.
