20 things to know

I’ve Been Tagged and here’s what’s up...

Once you’ve been tagged you have to write a blog with 20 weird random facts about yourself. At the end choose 6 people to be tagged, list their names and why you tagged them. Don’t forget to leave them a comment saying (’You’re It!’) and to go read your blog. You cannot tag the person that tagged you, so, since you can’t tag me back let me know when you are done so that I can go read YOUR blog answers.

Will this come to haunt me?  Nah, I never slept with a NY Governor...at least not yet!

1.  As a child, my imaginary friend was female and had a Farrah-Flip (but was a brunette)

2.  I used to carry around a blanket I called my Monk.  My parents had an intervention in 1st grade and I quit carrying it around.

3.  I used to suck my thumb while carrying my Monk.

4.  I had a big W on my bedroom wall, to be like Mary Tyler Moore.

5.  I had my mother make me a ’magic belt’ a la Wonder Woman, complete with velcro closures and a loop to hold my lasso.

6.  I wore my belt to Spencer Hudson’s birthday party that same year.

7.  I played the King in our first grade play, "Soup for the King"

8.  I was a cub scout, Bobcat through Weblos (however that’s spelled..)

9.  I played soccer from age 4 to 10.

10.  My soccer team names were Mighty Mites, The Comets, The A-Team, and The Cobras.

11.  I used to pretend my soccer socks (from my A-Team years) were Wonder Woman boots.  They were red with white tops and came up over my knees.

12.  The first song I learned to play on piano was "Over the Rainbow".  My mom taught me.

13.  Grandmother Daisy, my dad’s mother, would play an elaborate version (think The Townhouse) of "Over the Rainbow" at my request.  I was mesmorized!

14.  My father taught me a very important life lesson:  "We’re only guaranteed two things in life, Death and Taxes."

15.  My cousin Jill used to make me up with her eyeshadow and lipstick when we were kids.  I do a better job now...

16.  I am a cancer survivor.  Hodgkins Disease Stage IIb

17.  I wrote my first song in the fifth grade, "TV is the One For Me".  My ’group’ at the time, Willie Pillie and The Penguins performed it at the Hambrick Elementary Talent Show in 1987.

18.  I was struck by a MARTA bus in 1992.  I lived. 

19.  I came out to my friends and family at 17.

20.  I wore sequins to my senior prom.
