20 Facts About Me - A bedtime Horror Story
Apr 05 '03
The Bottom Line 21) I hate this bottom line.
Gah. Ok, due to a specific request..I'll subject you kind folks to an egocentric ramble... heh. Feel free to rubberstamp and move on... LMAO
1) I'm Gemini, and everything that implies. I can hold two seemingly opposing viewpoints at once and not find that the least bit odd.
A walking mass of contradictions,
Brilliant mind, with derilictions
To overcome the wayward twin
One first must be aware of him!
2) My hair was almost to my ass a week ago, when I decided to have a 'me' day and get my hair done and a facial. I said trim an inch, give me bangs, and layer the rest. ARGH! How hard is that? Well, my hair is now just a wee bit below my shoulder..and barely layered at all, just the ends. I'm a bit ticked at Regis Hair Salon....
3) I was born a blonde, and was blonde my entire life (except for when I died it black or auburne)... until oooh few years back it started getting dull and darker. It's still blonde, but an ugly dishwater blonde bordering on light brown with more and more grey creping in daily..so I made very good friends with Clairol.. heh.
4) I'm registered Republican, but I don't ever vote a straight ticket. I think for myself, thank you very much, and vote for who I like no matter the party affiliation. I voted for Dubya, but never again...but not because of the war...because Separation is a soap box issue for me and he blew that in a major way. Worship who ya want, but keep it the hell out of politics!
5) I wear dentures.. or rather, they sit in my bathroom 90% of the time. Yup, I am a grinning toothless hag! Sorry man, but at almost 46, comfort has become WAY more important than appearance to me. I feel folks get far too hung up on outward appearances... it's why so many of us are neurotic! If I could find a dentist that could get them to fit right, I'd probably wear them..but after 5 sets at over a grand a pop..they still do not fit and are cosmetic only, not functional in any way.
6) I've successfully fought off cancer for over 17 years by telling MDs to kiss my butt. I let them do the cone biopsy and remove my cervix..then I let them take the uterus..then they said oops! Shoulda taken them darn ovaries too! I said yup, ya shoulda, cuz ya aint gettin them now! I've been telling doctors to piss off ever since. I firmly believe that people live in spite of Chemo therapy, not because of it... Chemo kills. Fear and stress kill. Cancer is merely annoying. Oh yeah.. they said I had 2 years to live tops... that was 16 years ago. Bite Me MDs!
7) Smoking does NOT 'cause' cancer! GAH! It is a contributing factor in those prone to cancer, it is not causal! Must I dig up stats on how many smokers live to be over 100 and cancer free? I started smoking in my 20's because a militant non-smoker ticked me off. I was waiting to board a flight and the gal ahead of me had just been told this was a non-smoking flight and was like 'gah how am I gonna live without a cigarette for 5 hours?' and some idiot steps up and snidely states 'how will your daughter live if you DO smoke?' . That made me mad. I bummed a smoke from the first chick and been smoking ever since. Had a lot of cancers in the past 17 years.. but NEVER lung cancer. My entire family smokes. No lung cancer. If you are prone to lung cancer geneticly, then you will get it regardless of second hand or direct smoke.
8) I have no patience with folks that rant about 'swearing' just because their parents did. Research it. Look it up. Tell me WHY certain words are taboo to you. Do not be a freakin sheep and follow the herd! It's letter groupings for chrissakes! Get irate about child abuse. Start a revolution..anything..but make it a REAL cause, not this pansyass shit that a group of letters offends you. That's your choice to get upset over something so trivial, it aint my problem if you're an idiot. Choose something else.
9) I have a Thanatos thang. I love danger. Jumping ocean waves on my Jet Ski, Roller Coasters, hell.. had a gun pulled on me once while assisting a drug bust.. was never as turned on as that night! I need to go sky diving. Someone take me!
10) I love everything Medieval..swords, outfits, RenFests. I have turned one of my guest bedrooms into a Medieval room with swords, shields and waraxes on the wall, dragons, books, wizards..you name it! I even make wench outfits and sell them on eBay when I have time. Someone said they'd buy me a castle.. I'm still waiting!! *taps her foot*
11) I have very blue eyes
12) After being 105 pound all my life, middle aged spread has decided to set in and I'm now 130...at 5'2. I don't care. LOL I love food and hate excercise, I'm perfectly content to go clothes shopping when things don't fit! That's why they invented credit cards! DUH! LOL
13) I entered college in my early 30's, and pulled off a triple major in 3 years while being a single parent and working full time...and still graduated Cum Laude. Thank you. Thank you very much.
14) I'm a hopeless optimist...to the point that it irritates people. LOL I can take any situation and find a silver lining, or something to laugh about. Being able to laugh at adversity is important! More people need to cultivate a sense of humor.
15) I have no patience with PC police either. It's gotten WAY out of hand. Relax dammit! It especially irks me when folks start ranting about something that has nothing to do with them... case in point: Non-gays acting offended by the word 'fag'. Gays aren't offended by it, why are you? Get a freakin clue! Learn to roll with it and stop stressing yourselves out over trivial crap. It's like Americans these days are just searching for something, anything, to get a good indignant up over!
16) I'm an avid reader..anything from fantasy to sci-fi to classics. My favorite book of all time is Crime and Punishment, but I also adore the Dragonlance novels..Raistlin is the man! And Pratchett! I've read every Disc World novel and am craving more!
17) I sometimes love argument for argument's sake. Yes, I will play devil's advocate, and present it strongly, just to have a bit of brain excercise. *evil grin*
18) I like my hats! I don't care if folks look at them with disdain..I'm damn proud of them!
19) I love watching a good verbal smack-down, even if I don't always agree with the smacker.
20) I'm tired of typing this. LOL
