    1. I am pretty sure I'm addicted to hot sauce and have actually researched capsacin addiction...evidently, there is no such thing but I don't believe it.
    2. I am the only left-handed person in my entire extended family
    3. I have a gross habit of licking doritos...but not eating them. I do not put said chips back into the bag when finished.
    4. I rarely drive with my hands...this terrifies most, if not all of my passengers. To my credit though, I am quite decent at driving with my knees.
    5. I was once an extra on Sex and The City. You can see the back of my head. It's my claim to fame.

    1. As a child, I had an imaginary friend, Maba, who was a quadriplegic.
    2. I went through natural childbirth twice (both were ginormous babies), and I would do it again. I much prefer the feeling of pain to the sensation of numbness.
    3. My favorite feature on men are their hands.
    4. I love words. I love learning new words and their meanings and origins and pronunciations and spellings, and I hate what technology like cell phones and text messaging are doing to language.
    5. I use odd numbers for everything. Cook time on the microwave, volume level on the TV, minutes I work out on the treadmill, my alarm time, etc. And I don't know why.

    Most of mine are medical, but they definitely count as interesting!

    1. << That is my back. I was born with a scoliosis of the spine. I had rods placed in 84'ish (this radiograph was taken less then 2 years ago, and so it was the first time I've ever seen my back. It looks nothing like I thought it would/should lol.

    2. I was also born with a left arm/hand malformation. My left forearm is missing the radial bone, I have no thumb, and limited finger function. What makes it interesting, is that soon after birth I underwent a few surgeries to help me be able to use it later in life. Apparently I was one of the first people to have this done, and my case was featured in a medical journal/article. I have tried and tried to find what one/by whom, but nuttin' so far.

    3. I am tongue tied The frenulum (the piece of ligament below my tongue), attaches almost right under the tip of my tongue. If I stick out my tongue, it just looks like I have a big fat upper lip lmao!

    4. My eldest daughter was a planned/successful home birth. I am VERY VERY proud of this accomplishment!

    5. I have one tattoo on my right shoulder that I designed. It's nothing fancy and glamorous, but it symbolizes the love I have for my children, so I wear it with great pride!

    Very well, where do I begin?

    1) My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery.
    2) My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet.
    3) My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Some times he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy, the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.
    4) My childhood was typical, summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets.
    5) When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds, pretty standard really. At the age of 12 I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen, a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn *kitten*, it's breathtaking, I suggest you try it.
