If you read this then you are it. You need to write out 16 little known facts about yourself. Sounds tedious, doesn't it? Actually it can be quite fun. Comment about how weird I am and then be bold and do your own. I think you are going to learn more than 16 things about yours truly.
1. When I was younger I was able to slam dunk. Most people look at me and would think otherwise but being able to squat 700lbs and leg curl 300lbs helps develop the muscles needed for dunking.
2. At the height of their popularity, I wore nothing but Zubaz pants. During that year of school I don't think I owned even one pair of jeans.
3. I wear size 17(the American sizing chart) for my shoes. It is damn near impossible to buy shoes. Most shoe stores only carry to a 12 or 13. I have to go to a store that deals with the Wisconsin Badgers. I remember my shoe size was always a source of rumors on the bus. Yes, I rode the bus in high school. I lived away from home during high school and my parents wouldn't let me have a car because they couldn't keep tabs on the car if I was away. Anyway a group of girls asked me my height and my shoe size. I told them and then I heard giggling and then gasps and then muffled, "I really want to see it." I always tried to figure out their devil's math but they refused to tell me.
4. I once got drunk at a party. A friend and I coerced our designated driver to take us to a 24 hour grocery store. Once inside I was stumbling around. The dd tried to get me to sit down but I screamed, "I WANT CHEESE BECAUSE I'M FROM WISCONSIN!" The check out guy gave me one of the motorized carts and all hell broke loose. Driving up and down the aisles screaming, "Look at me!" My friend crashed his cart into a bread display and I started laughing so hard I cried. It was a fun time and I think our dd broke up with her boyfriend because she realized we were the type of people he hung out with.
5. I once wrote a pamphlet detailing how to survive a zombie attack.
6. I am allergic to the ink they use for tattoos so I have none.
7. I currently have 3 piercings, two in my left ear and my eyebrow. I once had up to 8. 5 in the ear, eyebrow, navel and my thingee. I worried about infection and my thingee falling off so that one came out plus it hurt to walk. I accidentally ripped my navel piercing out and 3 of my ear piercings got really hard and my ear started growing over the studs so I took them out.
8. I enjoy movies. I have 1126 DVDs. Thank you Blockbuster for being unsuspecting about my rental activities and thank you to the inventor of DVD burners.
9. I admire James K. Polk. He accomplished all his goals as president in 4 years so he didn't seek another term.
10. I have a fear of birds. I was divebombed while on vacation as a kid and the bird crapped all over my face. Also, my aunt and uncle raised parrots and they would attack me. Birds hate me so I avoid them at all costs.
11. I have 8 myspace accounts and 3 facebook accounts. I enjoy making fake accounts even though it is against their terms. I only check one myspace account daily. I rarely use it anymore. I also creep out my students with myspace because I was a member before the "boom". I heard about it because I am such a devoted Weezer fan and Rivers Cuomo released "tomorrow" from Annie on his so I just had to hear it.
12. The hardest thing I ever taught in my teaching career was sex ed to sophomores.
13. I miss Hunter S Thompson and Kurt Vonnegut.
14. I was in choir for 7 semesters in college.
15. I have had 5 car accidents in my driving career. 4 of those accidents involved deer. I think it was some karmic thing because I hunt. When I shot my first deer, I ate its heart in the field so its spirit became a part of me.
16. I enjoy roller derby. I think it was more of a thing for seeing women fighting in roller skates and skirts. I dig the alternative look girls. I also dig ladies who work on cars. I'm weird.
