    Most people are shocked when I say I am an Irish dancer, mostly because Irish dancing isn't very common

    Wow! I thought I was the only one who had a problem with Popsicle sticks! I'm also grossed out by cardboard sucker sticks

    That although I'm a loving mother who would cook, sew and tackle any project with my children I was the world's worst nurse! After the age of 6 or so if they got sick they were on their own.

    I know that feel. I get carded out the *kitten* whenever I'm in a casino or I'm even thinking of ordering a drink.

    None of you can see me, but I look like a fairly stereotypical nerd with a bit more muscle mass than the archetypal image. Now for the things people wouldn't guess:

    - I've been in three fist fights as an adult and held my own in all of them
    - I lived for two years in a... let's say very low-income apartment building (with no problems)
    - I love punk and classic metal, Iggy Pop is one of my idols
    - I was pretty much a complete burnout/slacker ages 15-20

    That I play Aussie rules football. I say "I play football", they say "you play football, like touch football or like soccer?" Me, "no I play Aussie rules". I guess I just don't look like the type of person who would enjoy getting dirty or tackling people in the mud, but I do :happy:

    What are a couple things everyone is shocked to find out about you?

    For me its that I have a CHL and a Motorcycle License. And that I kicked butt on two Boy Scout high adventures.

    What do you usually carry?

    You might not guess from my appearance, but I very much enjoy the presence of small, fuzzy mammals such as rabbits and guinea pigs.

    I started with a Glock 19. But with my wardrobe that was hard to carry, so I went with a .380 Ruger and a garter holster (I always wear below the knee skirts)

    My age. Everyone assumes I'm still in college. My son will be in college this year and is often mistaken for my boyfriend. Mortifying.

    I used to arm wrestle all the boys in high school and win! I've never liked being told i couldn't do something just because i was female. And yes I even tried to write my name in the snow (I was young). :laugh:

    1. I am half Mexican (biological father was born in Mexico)

    2. I have been married, twice. But neither husband has fathered either of my children. I had them both when I was single and raised them as infants on my own. Daughter was 2 when I married my ex and my son was 18 months when I married my current husband.

    3. My son is black, white, and Mexican. He looks more Cherokee than anything based on his build and coloring.

    That I am an award winning newspaper reporter (I now work as an accountant), that I carry a gun, pepper spray and a switchblade nearly always, and that I was kidnapped and lived to tell about it.
    That is really awesome. All of it. Which newspaper?

    I was the same. I always had a point to prove.
