Sharing.
Tonight is my last session for therapy. I'm not "cured" or anything absurd like that, I was just skeptical going in and I remain as such. One thing was said that struck me as being quite astute - she mentioned that I like to keep personal things at a distance through technology. She's a little right about that. There are no pictures on the web that have my name associated with them, my full name can only be found in some really old newsgroup postings, and I tend to yell at people when they use my name in comments.
So, here's 20 things you may or may not know about me. I can too share with strangers!
1) For a brief time I sold sex-toys as a side job. I was nominated to do this by a woman who was hosting a bridal shower I attended. She was so impressed with my knowldge of the products, she suggested I start selling them.
2) I've attended 3 different colleges, one of them twice and just recently earned my bachelors degree in Sociology.
3) In the past 10 years I've moved 8 times.
4) In the past 10 years I've had 8 jobs - they've all been relatively close to each other.
5) My best friend and I have been friends for 16 years. She hated me when we first met.
6) Regardless of how much I weigh, I will always think there are 5 more pounds to go.
7) I've owned a cat for 10 years now. I owned a dog once, and probably will again.
8) I had a catfish named Lenny.
9) When I was younger, I would rescue all the goldfish that my father tried to feed to his Oscars. I bought a ten-gallon tank and kept the goldfish there.
10) I can do a cartwheel and a backwards walkover.
11) I'll always be smiling when I'm dancing
12) My favorite poet is Dorthy Parker and my favorite writer is Terry Pratchett.
13) I learned how to ride a bicycle when I was 8. It was a 10 speed and my feet couldn't reach the floor. I would stop the bike by crashing into nearby fences.
14) I can drive a stick shift if i have 20 minutes to get out of first
15) I still dance around my apartment and sing outloud when no one is home. From time to time, I'll even grab a hairbrush and pretend it's a microphone
16) I posed naked with 300 other naked people for a Spencer Tunic photo.
17) I sleep with a sword and a police club by my bed.
18) My friends still read me bed-time stories when I'm alone.
19) I love swingsets.
20) I will hop on a bus/train and travel 3-6 hours on the slightest whim. I can live out of a bookbag for a week.
Pssst. 20 days until my birthday.
