I swear that this is where I’m going to stop the posting because I really need to get some editing done today.  Danielle Taylor tagged me with a 5 facts and the nominate a few people to do the same.  She did 3 and I think I’m going to do 5, but you can pick whatever.

1. As a kid, I had an accent where my ‘th’ was a ‘d’.  I sounded like a Brooklyn thug until my dad lectured it out of me.  Every time I made the mistake, he’d tell me how wrong it was.
2. When I was a teenager, my dad and I butted heads a lot.  The most memorable one was in a fancy restaurant where he was telling me what to order then what to do for a school project.  I snapped and made a loud, embarrassing speech about how I wasn’t a robot.  It still lives in infamy.
3. My aunt, uncle, and cousins had a large backyard with a decent wooded area.  At one point, a trio of skunks wandered into the yard and broke up the BBQ.  Where was I when this happened? Lying down on the lawn and letting the skunks sniff and lick at my hands.  Didn’t get sprayed.
4. For a week between college sessions, I was staying in the dorm and my card couldn’t let me back in.  I had to stay inside and live off two bottles of mead, a box of poptarts, twizzlers, triscuits, and whatever my friend and I had leftover from take-out the night before.
5. I was terrified of ET and raced out of the theater when he first appeared because I didn’t expect it.   I refused to go back in and cost my dad the chance to see it.  My younger sister would wander out to check on me from time to time.
