    When I was 30, I found out that, a year before I was born, my dad cheated on my mom with my mom's sister (ie. my aunt)
    They had a baby, who I grew up thinking was my cousin, but is actually my brother.
    Wow! I bet that was hard! Your Mam is a better woman than me, there’d be body parts missing if I were her lol

    I am totally enchanted by Beatrix Potter, both as a woman and as an artist/writer. She was so bold for her time. And I collect ceramic hunting dogs. (you might say I am hunting dog obsessed).

    I've played piano/taken lessons since I was 6 years old.

    Love Piano music, always meant to keep on playing. I had lessons for a year in my late teens but had to stop for reasons. I really enjoyed it.
    I want to try to learn with my daughter, when she's old enough and we can go through it together. Even if she doesn't want to carry on I think it may.

    You should take some lessons if you can! I took lessons from age 6 to around 22 or 23. I don't get to play as much I as would like/need to, but I love it still!

    I pulled a Blutto in the first semester of my junior year at Penn State...a 0.00 GPA. I joined a fraternity and basically partied constantly. I was place on probation at which time I left the school and returned home. Went to a local University and finished with a 3.45 GPA.

    I will. Like I said, I enjoy piano music. People always laugh when they find out I listen to stuff like Erik Satie, Rachmaninoff, Carly Commando, Max Richter, Michael Nyman etc.

    They do the same with me, or they don't understand my love of classical music. I mean, I've been playing it since I was 6, it's a big part of who I am. Sacrifice by Michael Nyman is one of my favorite songs. I like to get on Youtube and watch and listen to other pianists to get an idea of what I want to learn next.

    Don't let anyone laugh at you! I get it! <3

    Been listening this a lot lately. Emotional (lots of slow bits that I can learn), with a stormy bit in the middle. Absolutely no good for a workout though. :D I'd like to learn how to play this at some point in my life.

    Anyway back to confessions. Sorry.

    I haven't watched a movie in years. I fidget way too much and can't stand sitting for that long to actually get through one.

    It gets worse! Mom didn't even find out about the affair until my brother was already 4 years old! And then she stayed with my Dad for another 20+ years!
    My entire family kept this secret for almost 30 years. It's completely bonkers.

    I hate mice...especially those white ones...just make my skin crawl. Hamsters & gerbils fall into the same category.
