Since I've been tagged by Erin, I'll share eight things/secrets about myself most people don't know.

1.  I received a standing ovation for my first solo vocal performance as a grade schooler. The audience was quite large, but I wasn't scared.  My love of music carried me through.

2.  On the last day of sixth grade, I hit the home run that led my team to victory.

3.  I've discovered six spots on a man's body that, when properly stimulated result in almost instant arousal.  And these aren't spots you would traditionally touch to elicit such a response .  Someday, I'll put these and some additional sexy research into a non-fiction book to share with others seeking a romantically sexual relationship.

4.  I've professionally tutored Anatomy for college students (undergrad).

5.  I fainted while touring the King Tut's Tomb exhibit at The Smithsonian.

6.  For a couple hours at the beginning of our honeymoon, we were locked out of our beach retreat--because the owner provided us with an incorrect location for the hidden key.  Despite our calling and being given an alternate location, which also yielded no key, we finally had to get in touch with the neighbors. Fortunately, they were awake at that ungodly hour and provided us with their spare key.

7.  When I was misdiagnosed with cancer, my boyfriend (the man who is now my husband) promised he'd always be there for me with love, support and lots of laughs.  He kept that promise and we're still together over thirteen years later.

8.  During my childhood, my neighbor's son bit me in the stomach.

I enjoyed figuring out those interesting bits and am passing the fun along to the following eight friends:
