My turn

[firecat]

I know very little about some of the people on my friends' list. Some people I know relatively well. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes spinach."

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, if you feel like it.

1. I worked the night shift for years--consequently, I hate crowds. It was so nice being out during the day when everyone else was at work.

2. I have a fairly big scar on my right shoulder from falling down the steps when I was a little kid. I often forget I have it because I can't see it.

2a. I've had stiches three times--once because of surgery, but I've never broken anything (knock on wood).

3. Both my grandfathers were dead long before I came into the world.

4. I am a packrat.

5. I like a nice sip of green olive brine straight outta the jar every once in a while.

6. In addition to starting dance classes when I was three, I also attended drama classes, modeling school and "charm school" before I was 12.

7. Some of the crafty things I can do: sew, knit, crochet, tat, smock, bead, needlepoint, cross stich, embroider, quilt, and make ribbon flowers. The bad thing is, once I learn how to do something I usually move on to the next thing--so I have LOTS of unfinished projects.

8. I perform middle eastern dance for fun and profit.

I'm the same way about crafty things -- although I don't have lots of unfinished projects, since I tend to learn by doing small projects.
