10 things

10 things you probably don't know about me:

1. I took baton twirling lessons and piano lessons as a little girl. Got pretty good at piano. Got thumped in the head too many times with the baton.
2. I talk to myself, and I attribute this to not having siblings.
3. I had a birthmark on my bottom lip forever.....people told me I had something on my mouth. An unfortunate car accident ripped my lip, and its repair elminated the annoying birthmark.
4. I have written some songs and performed them live.
5. My one trip out of the country was a disaster.
6. I have 3 tattoos.
7. Once upon a time, my navel was pierced.
8. I used to have seizures, attributed to "temporal lobe epilepsy". I have been off medication and without seizures for over 3 years.
9. I prefer mountains to oceans.
10. I like to work with tile, love to paint (walls, not works of art), and I'm learning how to refinish furniture.

Wow, this was kind of a tough exercise.
