25 Random Things meme
Feb. 2nd, 2009 11:01 pmOK. After reading this, this is too much, sorry. But I'm not editing. So here is the condensed version. The long version is under the cut at the bottom of the page. Don't worry, I won't tag anyone :)
Some random things about me. Some I may of posted in the past (sorry)
1. I was born in Montreal
2. I was adopted at 9 months old.
3. I found my adoptive parents.
4. I grew up in a city called Sherbrooke, Quebec. Lived there until 10 yrs old.
5. Birthmark: I have a birthmark, sort of a faded skin patch on the back of my neck between the rhomboids (I was going to put a tat over it, and never did (yet)
6. Scar: On my right calf - I stabbed myself.
7. I was circumcised at around 5 or 6 yrs old. I have a "French Cut" (lol)
8. I wasn't much of a student. More of a day dreamer. I loved TV, Sci-fi, toons, Superman (George Reeves). I know now I had a crush on him). I was the rare one in my class that had a Popular Mechanics, and Popular Science, National Geographic subscriptions at an early age. Added to my DC Superman comics as well.
When I baby sat the kids across the street, I would purposely forward the clocks in their home one hour, so I could send them to bed early and watch Star Trek (hon, not the re-runs, the real first time thing!)
9. Ribbed and Punched/Non Confrontational: Being from another planet (Canada), I was ribbed and punched in elementary school by a few bullies. That did not cause me to fight back, but pull back. That's probably why I back off from confrontation. This made me more shy. I also refused to join Cub/Boy Scouts I was too shy and intimidated.
10. I earned a orange belt in Karate in 5th-6th grade.
11. I could sing!: I used to have a really good voice.
12. I am related to actor Glen Ford
13. Am and always will be bad at math
14. School I hated: Bad in sports. Elementary and Jr High was OK. But I hated High School. I really withdrew. I was the one hiding in the back of the room.
15. Girlfriends? A few. I had a girlfriend in High School. My first and only sexual experience with a woman.
16. College rocked: I came out of my shell. With High School over, now it was college. That was my coming out yrs socially. I blossomed. I had not come out to myself then, but in any case it was one of the best yrs of my life.
17. Bad in math but have a BS in Biology? Why?
18. Came out to me, and then to my parents in 1984. I was happier, but a bit more confused. I should of dated better men. They were more confused than me.
19. I really love eating out with friends. But don't often. Gets expensive, and most of my friends are broke. I was on my way up to 36 waist yrs ago, due to eating out too much.
20. I like dogs best: I've had 3 dogs one cat and one turtle for pets over my life. I still prefer dogs.
21. Food? Not too picky. I prefer a good steak or fish dinner. Asian, Turkish, Greek, Italian are my faves too. And I'll always try something new.
22. I love good movies that keeps one on the edge of ones seat. But a good tear jerker is good too. And some of the really old ones are good too.
23. I found leather: My second blossoming after coming out was meeting friends that introduced me to Mama of Mamas Leather family. Not only did it give me some self worth in helping the community, but also getting to know a whole bunch of new friends.
24.Procrastinator: Major. I am still Canadian, I have not hung all my pictures after 2 yrs of living here.
25. Architecture, travel, acting, music, all these things I just wish I had pursued yrs ago. These are a few of the regrets. But in all, I am pretty content.
