5 Things

Well, I got tagged. Thanks Micki! ;)

I'll try to think of things that you won't find blogstocking me. But I guess after I write them, they'll be blogstalkable.

1. I am an introvert. Most people see me out and about with my people face on. But if given the choice of partying with John Perry Barlow or hanging out at home, I'll probably be at home. (Sorry John, you know I still dig ya!)

2. I was obsessed with Robyn Hitchcock in my teenage years. He probably influenced me more than any other musician with his florid lyrics and well florid lyrics. I started losing interest in Robyn in the last years of my marriage. And then they were both done.

3. I went to modeling school and won several "beauty" contests. Once as Miss Spring Beauty. I was also a baton twirler and competed in that. I had a lot of trophies, banners and plaques stacked up for a while, but then I threw a bunch out. I still have my baton and sometime pull it out and practice a bit. I love twirling.

4. I went to college with Chris Pirillo. He was the lockergnome then, I wasn't heathervescent yet. He actually admits that he's from Iowa. I don't. I haven't seen him since then, but we have exchanged email.

5. My favorite word is Jacare (accent on the e) and I've studied 6 or more languages academically.

Now I have to tag 5 people... that will have to wait until later.

Update: Tagged so far: Carmen, Pinky,

As a point of clairification....you are from California...Miss Spring Beauty!!! Yes, you did live in Iowa for a few years; but that does not "make" you from Iowa.
