I also hated texting, the Blackberry really helps. I had to learn for work, so I made them get me one.

1. My school security in grades 6-8 carried uzis.

2. I recently traded a marble coffee table for wood chipper and this makes me happy, even though I am unlikely to ever actually use said wood chipper myself.

3. I have terrible stage fright, yet was in many plays in college and studied theater and voice.

4. My favorite musical is Evita, probably because I remember when the real Evita in her casket visited our province in Argentina in 1973. I actually saw it. I was ten.

5. I experienced a military coup in Argentina in 1976 and lived under martial law.

wow apoc,

I wouldnt even begin to know what that mustve been like living under martial law

I bet as a child that was utterly terrifying and now it must be a surreal picture for you

and seeing Evita Peron in her casket, interesting to say the least

Im curious if you knew anyone that just dissapeared? or if your parents did under Pinochet? That would be horrible...

I am kind of a politics, history nerd, so I actually thought some of it was interesting and cool if that makes sense? Yes, my childhood was completely surreal, and I have a difficult time actually understanding it all was real. My parents were horrified, but not enough to just leave.

Pinochet was actually in Chile, but yes the reason we had guards with Uzis at school was because of threats against children of diplomats who went there. There were people who were kidnapped, but the actual "desaparecidos" time was actually a bit later on, after we left Argentina on September 25, 1976 after my mother died unexpectedly. Military juntas were in charge after Estelita (Peron's second wife) was removed from power by the military in early 1976.

There are many people we knew whom we have been unable to reach since things stabilized.

Not into myspace,facebook,twitter,ect.I'm old school when it comes to communicating.That's face to face.

I love my privacy.Time alone.

I enjoy watching The Duggars.

I enjoy listening to Roy Masters.His son David though gives me nightmares.

I'll be voting for Sarah Palin in 2012.That's of course if Hillary doesn't run.

I can't remember if I posted these before...
 

I hate beets and am not a fan of turnips.

I used to hate cats when I was younger, but that was because I was severely allergic to them and couldn't be in the same room with one. My allergies have lightened up as I got older. I'm still allergic, but not enough so as not to own any furballs. I actually love cats. (can you tell?)

I used to own a dwarf bunny named Bugsy. Turned out that both me and my cat was allergic to her so I donated her to a school. She lived a very social and happy life (I checked in quite frequently).

I suffer from sporadic back pain due to spinal taps I used to get on a regular basis. Ever since then, my back has never been the same. I'll only complain about it when it's utterly unbearable.

I love pea soup and Mare's homemade chicken soup. I like soup I can essentially eat with a fork. (More stuff, less broth).

I love lucky charms

I am shy

I like doing things on the spur of the moment

I love Smart Butches

last one will remain unsaid :)

2. Today felt like spring, so I decided that this is the official start of my spring. Feels good.

3. I'm a really easy-going, flexible person. I can change plans, go along with the crowd, or have fun just because someone else is having fun. I'm not afraid to say what I want, but I love seeing things through other's eyes, too.
