In the past few weeks, I have had several encounters where someone said, "I didn't know that about you." Being a lover of random acts of kindness and random thoughts, I decided to make it easier for my friends and list some of them here. (Makes it easier to avoid small talk later. No offense...)
- Yes, I used to be quiet and shy. It was my protection against a screwed up family. (You have no idea...) Ditched the family & ditched the shell.
- Yes, I have performed stand-up comedy & received a standing ovation every single time. I'm working on plans to return to it this summer!
- Yes, I do hate Tom Brady and Christian Laettner equally. There is no other athlete that will ever be able to cause my blood to boil in the way these two gals do.
- Yes, I really am working to obtain a pilot's license.
- No, I do not have a romantic bone in my body. No seriously, romantic gestures make me suspicious. Besides, I much prefer my funny bone!
- No, I do not have dreams of 2.5 kids and a white picket fence. Never have, never will. And no, I don't have anything against those who do. I just know I'd feel like a caged animal & die a slow death inside. Been there, done that.
- Yes, I did go to the National Spelling Bee & National Free Throw Championships in the same year.
- Yes, I really do make inappropriate jokes at inappropriate times. It eases the tension (at least for me.)
- I will high five or give "knucks" to anyone. There are approximately 10 people allowed to hug me.
- If you "knew me from school", I can assure you that you don't know me anymore unless you've spoken to me in the past year or so. But I'm always open to have a drink and chat! Just don't expect me to be the timid, smart girl. Well, I'm still smart but more smartass than timid. I can also assure you that I want to leave the world a better place than I found it.
