Friend Meme from sgflutegirl

I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your journals, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you for your interest in my words.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself? Any old thing at all, the more trivial and fascinating, the better. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...they enjoy eating brownie batter while watching old disco movies."

I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal and see what gems of knowledge appear.

Hmmm...I'm trying to think of something cool and interesting that you may not already know about me. I can't remember if there is anything I haven't shared with you, so I figured I'll post five fun, wild and wacky things about myself and see if in the course of the ensuing conversation, I can think of something weird and wacky. That you do not know about yours truly.

1. I have pieces of metal in my body. A six inch steel rod in my spine and now a 6 inch steel screw in my right big toe. Freak of nature, that's me.

2. I have a black belt in Kyokushin, a full contact Japanese karate form. If you are not sure what full contact is, take a street fight and add a few rules. Yes I can kick your ass. ;-)

3. I have four brothers and four sisters. And I talk to one of them on any sort of regular basis. Yes that's family love for you.

4. My father, if he was still alive today, would be in his late eighties. My mother is in her late sixties. I am 27. Do the math. Dysfunction is thy name.

5. I love cats. Like I seriously want to save every cat in the world. I have three. I could own more, but I think my husband might tie me up and shove under the bed if I suggest adopting another cat. Seriously.
