I love talent

This comment peaks my interest. I love talent. Talent can be so very many things. I was watching something yesterday and became completely engaged with watching the choreography of a music number on a movie... that to me is talent, so is the art work of a five year old who spent an hour making a picture of mommy. That dedication and patience in one so young, that I call talent as well, What is talent to you?

I'm likely the only person on the planet without a tat.

I have one brother and three half sisters none of which Im close with. Their choice and THEIR loss :)

I have three sets of "parents". My adopted family I dont talk to, my bioligical parents mom is dead and dad who knows or cares, and my foster family. We dont spend holidays together but we still talk.

All of my grandparents are dead

Even as dysfunctional as my family life is or lack there of my bio mom would have been really proud of the person Ive have become :)

I love dogs and not cats LOL

I was on the Spell Bowl and Academic Decathlon teams in high school. We went to State for spelling. :nerd:

I am fluent in French (I am very rusty).

I used to be able to speak Chinese (Mandarin) very well; now I hardly remember any of it.

I have one brother. I haven't seen him in 21 years. Haven't spoken with him in 16 (long story).

My home is filled with Jen Corace's artwork.

I went to State twice for AP Latin. :nerd:

I hardly remember any of it. :blink:

I have been told I picked up languages easily as a young child (as many do) and spoke very well with several Old World families in the neighborhood. I was between 2-4 when this occured.

I remember NONE of any of the languages I was supposedly so good at speaking (Russian, Italian and German).

I have one half-brother who defected from the family years ago, taking his third wife and his and her and their 4 kids with him. I miss my nephews. :(

I'm good in step class until they start the combos over from the beginning, then I can't remember what we did first.

I'm sensing a recurring issue with my memory. :blink::fishswim:

I like to laugh alot but hardly smile. Crazy isnt it?

Ive been told I have ADD LOL

Im probably the most impatient person alive

I have very small hands and feet

When I was little my eyesight was fine. When I was adopted my adopted mom had glasses put on me because my right eye went in just a lil bit cause of a weak muscle. I have worn glasses ever since. I hardly ever wear contacts.

I cant sleep with socks on my feet

I sleep on my right side

I cry at romantic or sappy movies

I get complimented on my eyes almost daily. They are clear blue.

I loved canning fruit and shelling peas when I was younger

I'm not picking on you, bbm, promise!
 

I prefer socks on my feet. They get cold easily.

I started sleeping on my right side after a bout with insomnia when I was in middle school. I read somewhere that sleeping like that helps by allowing your heart to drop into a more comfortable location. I tried it and it worked so I've slept on my right side for about 20 years now.

I cry at Publix commercials. :blink:

I am very private most of the time and like time to myself as well.

I don't want flowers. Bring me a picture of flowers or a card. Leave the flowers in the ground, where they can happily exist without me sniffing on them. :smelling-flower:

I was married. Twice. :seconddoh:

I haven't seen my nephews for almost ten years now.

I would have done well in times gone by. My skin is very thin, so the 'blue' blood shows up well on me. I could have been royalty. Royalty, I tell you! :watereyes:

Moth balls do not smell good to me.

LOL Gemme. I dont take it as your are picking on me at all.. :) I just got carried away for a second with this board. Lil things kept coming to me to add... :) LOL No worries, ok?

5 for PETA
 

1.) I'm sympatico with elephants. Big time. I'm against freak show/zoo exhibition of such. It's cruel beyond measure. I don't feel bad for people who are trampled by traumatized disoriented enslaved pachyderms.
2.) I sometimes fish "catch and release" for sport even tho I know it is wrong to torment and puncture fish for sport. It's an awful pursuit but I have a nostalgic attraction to fishing and even tho I snip the barbs on my hooks I know it is wrong.
3.) I have no problem dropping live crabs (which I think are beautiful) into boiling water to suffer a horrible death because I like eating them. Sorry crabs. You are too delicious I must boil you alive.
4.) I think I could easily behead and skin a chicken for dinner although I've never done it. Not a cute bantam hen tho. They are too cute. But flesh eaters should "own" it, right? I likes me some chicken.
5.) I disapprove of anyone who murders a spider. Unless it was a black widow or brown hermit or if they were eating it or if there were extenuating circumstances.
*bonus* 6.) I like fur, but only vintage fur. I disapprove of the "fur industry" but think that furs that already exist should be enjoyed. But I approve of new furs created by hunters who eat their prey ( so as not to waste), and the salvaging of furs from roadkill. I like taxidermy created from found sources, but not from murder victims.

5 Things Nobody Knows!
 

* I often laugh at inappropriate times. Funerals, hospitals, weddings, while being fired from a former job. It's not because of a nervous response, it's because I can see the irony in most any situation.

* I'm a terrible singer but have zero issue with doing karaoke in front of most people.

* I'm extremely clumsy and trip and fall or lose my balance often.

* I worked for a major airline for many years and did every position from ticket counter to taxiing the planes to baggage loading to dumping the lav. I loved it and would do it again in a heartbeat if it paid worth a shit.

* While working at the airport, I saw many disturbing things. I once saw a guy back into a spinning propeller and be chopped to bits. I also saw pilots arriving for work drunk. I also discovered a real human turd wrapped in a piece of newspaper, shoved into a seatback pocket.

I think I'll start a thread on the above.

Ok hear are a fue more of my druthers.

I love the color red in all its hues.

Am most a peace in the forrest or near water,pastures ect.

Could be a vegan but will shure miss red meat.

Love latino music..wish I could still dance to it...the spicer the better.

Love a stormy night.

Beyond the Obvious...
 

I'm totally new and haven't said much:

1. I can juggle.
2. I broke several immigration laws in the mid-90's in the name of love. (I smuggled myself into Canada - and my then girlfriend, out. We're both in our respective countries now, btw.)
3. I have a degree in Classic Trumpet Performance - but suffered performance anxiety so there went that career.
4. I've travelled the USA Extensively (all but 9 States)
5. I finally learned to dance in my late 30's.

1. I always have fresh flowers in my house each week even if it means I trim
the grocery bill.

2. I listen to the opera every chance I get.

3. I rarely watch television.

4. I am talking to myself more than I ever have.

5. I long to dance under the stars (preferably in Italy) as
Andrea Bocelli sings Vivere.
