A friend tagged me with this meme. So, I decided to play along. I am supposed to disclose 7 things about myself that people might not know. Here goes.
1. I was born on a Monday while the Memorial Day parade was going by.
2. I have never ridden on a roller coaster (and never will, willingly that is).
3. When I was 7 years old I almost lost a kidney to a serious infection. All better now.
4. My first free lance writing job, was to write the biography of a member of the Virginia House of Delegates in anticipation of his bid for the Governor’s office. Larry Sabato was to write his political history. Since the man had only won one election and was not much of a Delegate, it never really went anywhere. However, Larry did.
5. In my job in public relations for a recycling company, I spent some time with some garbage tycoons in Garfield, New Jersey. When the day was over, my boss informed me that all of them had major mafia connections, especially the guy who kept calling me sweetheart. The one I glared at.
6. I have seen a ghost. Actually seen one, in broad daylight in a grave yard. I know it sounds like a cliche, but it’s true.
7. I have a serious phobia about statues. Not all statues, just most of them, especially female statues. I can’t even imagine going to Rome! The Statue of Liberty—OMG!
So there, some random pointless facts about me. How embarrassing.
