Holsety : my teacher was insane. we all had cardboard cut-outs. the poem was read over the film. i wish i knew what happened to it.

had a staph infection in my ankle when i was 16. was running a temp so they gave ne pennicillin. i woke up to hear them ask my mother if she knew i was allergic to that drug. (no, she wasn't) i ended up in the hospital for two months. a cut and blled and two arthoscopies. my first night after or i was on some powerful painkillers, a fever in the 100's and in isolation. i could see a worm the size of a small dog burrowing in my leg. reasoning that it had to be a hallucination i ordered a cup of tea at 3am. i figured that if the nurse didn't see it, it wasn't real. she didn't - so i went to sleep.

I don't have a furnace in my house.

I burn wood for heat..I cut and split it all myself, and I get up every two hours at night to keep it burning.

I am, in actuality, Johnny Depp. It's time I finally revealed this.

I am drawn to the television like a moth to the flame. If it is on and I can hear the sound, I am compelled to watch it, even if it is complete and utter crap, even commercials. I am unable to focus on anything else going on in the room until it is shut off or I leave.

As a former trumpet player, I am very good at whistling tunes, in tune.

I played the lead role Brom Bones in the musical play The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.

I worked briefly as a full service gas station attendant while in junior high school (family business).

I chose my college career path in sixth grade based on a display in the counselor's alcove - each of ~100 careers had a filmstrip cup printed with name and average salary. I chose chemical engineer because it had the highest salary outside of law or medicine. I graduated with Bachelor's degrees in engineering & science - but have never worked as a chemical engineer.

I can take the Lotus position without using my hands - but I cannot touch my toes without bending my knees.

Sometimes, in the spaces between moments at night, I can see dead people.

...On a clear day, I can see for ever..

...At my sentencing, the Judges Wife cried, " Let the man go free.."

...I got lock jaw while the dentist had his fingers in my mouth trying to extract a tooth..Revenge was mine.

..I've been pea'ed on by an Elk..

,,Tracked a mountain lion that was tracking me...

..have avoided being sprayed on by a skunk at least 3 times in my life..

..was born with my sisters foot prints all over my head...

..Eagles and hawks know something about me that i don't

....survived a massive bee attack ,,litteraly covered with bee stings from head to foot,,,and many years later,,after a morning hike,,propping my bare feet up and taking a nap..was woken by 100's of bees licking the moisture off of my feet. it tickled and i laffed.

saved a skunk that was neck deep in a slop can at work. he had been in there hours. used a broomstick to lift him out. a couple of days later i walked up on him at work. he stood up and looked at for me a few minutes before walking away.

julie and i have saved at least ten turtles on the road. taking them to a river or pond. the longest rescue was a half hour drive outside of town to a pond. i held the turtle in my lap the entire time.

I don't take the wrappers off of DVDs until I watch them, so I've got a large number of new-in-wrapper movies from a range of several years.

I collect maps and globes.

I didn't get my drivers license until my 17th birthday because no one above 21 had time to take me out to practice driving. I passed on my first try even though I failed parallel parking because I was too far from the curb.

I once played a gig on the White House lawn.

My uncle played in Elvis' band in Blue Hawaii, my father went to high school with Cher, and I once had dinner with the co-author and illustrator of the Spiderwick Chronicles.

At university I won a coveted writing scholarship based upon a paper I wrote dissing Emily Dickinson.

I had the same 5th grade teacher as Tina Turner, I was Valedictorian, I never went to my prom because I refused to wear anything but combat boots with my dress.
Has anyone seen my keys?

Thats nothing, I'm almost 19, and I don't even have my learner's permit yet. (although I have plans to get it when I go home for spring break later this month...)

My name on my original birth certificate was Blair. It lasted for about two hours until my father changed it. I'm very much in his debt. :D

When I was in my young pre-teens I had this repetitive nightmare a few times a year: I am playing in the living room and I hear my mom cry out for help from the bedroom at the end of a hall. Between the bedroom and the living room is a big chair and I can see a hairy ape-like monster with big arms underneith waiting for me to run by. The sight of that monster always kept me from answering my mom's cry for help and I always woke scared to death. This nightmare went on for a number of years.

One night I had the same dream again, but this time instead of being scared, I felt angry and resolved. Hearing my mom cry out one more time I finely run fast towards the chair and jump over it. As I am jumping over I look down and I see this big hairy arm reach out towards me from under the big chair grasping for me ... and miss! Then I am over the chair and I run into the my moms bedroom. My mom sees me, sits up in bed and smiles a big, proud, happy smile at me.

I never had the dream again.
