Disclaimer: My apologies...I've been so busy writing lately that I hardly have time for anything more than this sort of thing. There's been a 100 Things About Me groove going around LJ lately, but I have a short attention span so I'm going to cut that list in half. I mean, even a trivia queen can only take so much! ; )
1. My mother named me for a character in Wuthering Heights.
2. They almost named me "Antigone" (thank you Goddess, for sparing me that horror!).
3. I have stolen one thing in my entire life--a Hershey's bar when I was 8 years old.
4. I felt so bad after I ate the damn thing that I looked around the parking lot of the store until I found 11 cents to pay for it.
5. I confessed and paid the 11 cents to the clerk, bawling my eyes out.
6. He called my dad anyway.
7. I showed my boobs to a boy in sixth grade.
8. My grandmother ran off and got married in Mexico when she was 16.
9. Her dad went and brought her back.
10. My grandfather paid for her divorce.
11. I never knew about any of this until she died.
12. My grandfather was a telegraph operator.
13. He made money as a pool hustler during the Depression.
14. I have a toe that's shaped like E.T.'s head.
15. Everyone in my family is 6' tall or taller.
16. I am 5' 2"
17. I really hate Tejano music.
18. I think that Snoop Doggy Dog is possibly the stupidest person on earth.
19. I had an abortion when I was 21.
20. I had a big party in my honor thrown by a bunch of Armenians one time.
21. One of my sons is named after a character in a Maurice Sendak book.
22. I sometimes have dreams that come true.
23. I can't lie very well because I blush bright red, and I don't have the memory for it.
24. I was born in a really tiny town.
25. I have had my tubes tied.
26. I'm allergic to morphine.
27. When I answer the phone, salespeople always ask if my mom's home.
28. I own a pistol and a shotgun.
29. If I didn't have kids, I would probably live in New York City.
30. I've worked since I was 15 years old.
31. The worst job I ever had was as a teletype operator at a John Deere Tractor dealership.
32. A famous person sent over a lackey to see if I wanted "to fuck" once.
33. I sent the lackey back with the message to the effect of "go fuck yourself."
34. I only make my bed when I have company over.
35. I like to wash dishes.
36. I love to fish.
37. I know how to crochet, knit, and sew.
38. People often approach me and offer me drugs.
39. I find this really amusing since I usually have a badge in my purse.
40. I sang karaoke once in my life with a Pennsylvania State Trooper.
41. We did "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" by Elton John & Kiki Dee.
42. We got a standing ovation and I retired on a high note in my karaoke career.
43. I've never done anything really stupid when I was drunk.
44. I've done a lot of stupid things completely sober.
45. I won a contest in a bar with another attorney from my office once.
46. It was an "Eat the Whipped Cream Off Your Partner's Chest" contest.
47. I almost went to school to become a simultaneous interpreter at the U.N.
48. My feet are always cold.
49. You can tell if I'm happy by whether my toenails are painted or not.
