Tell Me Something.....

[deer_in_headlights]

Nice thread Jadebear :)

Struggled with this one...trying to summarize:

I was exposed to lethal levels of toxic chemicals at work.
Life was saved but did the "bubble boy thing" for 10 yrs.
Had a near death experience, and was sent back and healed.
It's part of why I love so much, because I felt THE LOVE for me...for each one of us...

Maybe that's too heavy for this thread,,,

Never any heckling, (((((((((Amethist))))))))))), although, gosh, you sure set yourself up for some good-natured ribbing :D

1) Even though I grew up in a neighborhood in which people from all over the metropolitan area came to buy drugs, I have never tried powdered cocaine, rock cocaine, meth, or heroin. Not bad, considering that I was offered those drugs at least a dozen times per day on the way to school. Watching people decay right before my eyes probably had something to do with it.

2) Before I met my fiancee, my goal was to be an architect that worked in public housing in Mexico or Brasil. Love changes everything.

3) I have volunteered for numerous community organizations, including bi-lingual immigrant legal services and a gang-outreach group, which I had to quit after I was shot at. We collected money, bought school books, food, and took them to the movies in a neighboring city in order to get them off the violent streets at least for a few hours.

This is the coolest thread!

Written a book, part way through another but no, haven't done anything with either because do not know what or how.

Don't know whether I'm right handed or left handed.

Wanted to be a spy when I was a little girl.

Am a Civil War nerd, particularly the Battle of Gettysburg- share gr,gr,grandparents with someone in the history books which got me hooked.

May I ask? What type of book? Fiction novel? Or something related to your other interests?

Believe it or not....I made the cheerleading squad in school.

I have prophetic dreams.

I have a list of 'people I want to help' in case I ever win the lottery. I add to the list often.

I have seen a UFO.

My favorite color is black. It's the only color I feel comfortable wearing. To me it represents power.

I believe the house I lived in before was haunted.

I'm afraid of fireworks.

I have a varied interest in many hand crafts. I am quite good in some, some say amazingly good in others. All self taught.

They range from knitting, crotchet, cross stitch, tapestry up to curtains and roman blinds.

I also believe that our ancestors had a far better way of living in some aspects, and maybe we should sometimes look back and take notice of some of the old ways.

Hmm.

1. I enjoy doing Math problems for fun- differential equations (used to have severe Math anxiety- don't know how it changed).

2. I had two of my birds cremated. They are on my night table. One just passed last Feb and I still have dreams about him (mostly good).

3. I have been re-reading the same two novels for almost 20 years. Hmm, may be a little OCD there, but they calm me down.

I have to say I have never heard anyone say that before....and have never heard the words math and fun in the same sentence. LOL.

In highschool as a freshman I dated a senior, the Captain of the football team for the whole year until I broke it off with him. Even though I wasn't a cheerleader.

I saw a UFO three times in a three month span while I was a teenager.
