Okay, I am way too dull for twenty five. Let's see if I can break ten here;

1) I can turn my feet backwards. Not just out to the side, a la ballerina, but out to the sides, then all the way around so that they are pointing the other way. This generally makes people wretch, so of course, I do it as often as possible.

2) I hate jubejubes (sp?) jelly-beans and gummy bears. I can't stand the feeling of them stuck in my teeth. Oddly enough, I will eat peanut brittle, toffee and all other manner of teeth sticking things without a second thought. Just. Not. Gummy.

2a) This also includes raisins. Do not want. I don't like any kind of fruit in my bread or cake.

3)I have a life-sized skeleton (named Mr. Whitman) who lives in my dining room. I used to also have a female mannequin (the men were too pricey) named Lily (no HP relation, this was a full decade before the books came out.) Sadly, hubby was creeped out by Lily, so she now lives in the basement of our store. Hubby is not thrilled with Mr. Whitman either, but has yet to dispose of him.

4)I have varying, yet reccurring dreams about having to squeeze through small openings. birthissuesmuch? I also often dream that I can breathe under water.

5)My worst job ever was a Singing Telegram Gorilla. Humiliating, uncomfortable and did not pay nearly enough.

6)I won a Cyndi Lauper look-a-like contest in 1985, and got to meet her. (she was very nice)

7)I was trying to think of my first slash memory, and would have said Rocky Horror (which, in the time before dvd's, I saw in the theatre 67 times,) but

deelaundry spoke about Three's Company, and OH YEAH! I totes love it when he pretended to be gay. *swoons*

8)I am deathly afraid of flying, but I do it anyway 2-4 times per year.

9)I am always too hot or too cold. Always. There is no happy medium. Ever.

10)I did hairstyling for film for a while. I got to meet (and occasionally touch the hair of;) Dan Akroyd, Holly Hunter (uptight biatch),Christopher Plumber, Margo Kidder, Micheal Moriarity (sp?) Tatianna Ali, Kiefer Sutherland (he was directing, I didn't do his hair), Whatshername from Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman, James Brolin, and a few others I don't remember. Now, I wasn't THEIR hairdresser, but I was the 'set' hairdresser, so when the 'important' stylist was off set doing someone else, I was in charge on the set, and would touch up, etc.

While I'm name dropping, I also had a drink with Jerry Seinfeld (when he was a lowly stand-up comic.)

Okay, I'm pretty sure that is everything that is interesting about me. (and everything that is not.)

I refuse to tag. I'm a rebel like that. (can we count that as #11?)
