25 random things about me with hyperlinks....

1 I still remember how to speak Czech. I have learned how to understand (not speak) most Russian, and Slovak.
2 I’m moving to Scotland in September
3 I have only one kidney. When I was in kindergarten I used to tell girls that I lost it in Vietnam. (Thanks to M*A*S*H)
4 Most of my college was paid for because I’m “disabled” (See previous)
5 Have lived on an island with the population of 1 for an entire summer.
6 I HATE THE SNOW. I think it’s ugly, and terrible.
7 I can type over 100 words per minute.
8 I have a long standing goal of watching 8 hours of television a day or more… lately I haven’t been able to reach it, and I think I’m hurting my televisions feelings.
9 I hate driving. But I hate driving a stick even more! (My current car is a stick)
10 I have a geographical and fissured tongue.
11 Had a moth in my year for over a year… Subsequently I don’t hear very well.
12 I ate Chinese food everyday for 6 months, and never got tired of it.
13 I’ve been dating the television for over 20 years… and people say I’m afraid of commitment.
14 I do the same things at the same time everyday… 7am wake up, 1030 break, 12:30 lunch, 2:30 bathroom break, 4:30 leave. I don’t deviate, I park in the same spot, and I always walk the same path.
15 I don’t really get cold. Because where I went to school, it got so cold that 10 degrees was like a tropic holiday.
16 I have a scar over my left eye. My brother threw a rock at me while we were waiting for the bus.
17 I do not like reptiles, which leads me to think that I’m adopted.
18 I have never had jet lag. In fact, I think it’s made up.
19 Prague is my favorite city in the world, but I would rather live in London than Prague.
20 I’ve been denied entrance to many restaurants, trains, buildings, etc all because I’m American.
21 I never drink water on an empty stomach, and I never eat anything sweet until afternoon.
22 My favorite pop is 7-up. But I usually only drink it if it’s in Europe. The recipe is different and it is delicious! I think 7-up in the states tastes like crap.
23 Had a job where I only worked 5 minutes every hour, BUT, I had to be at work 18 hours a day, 7 days a week.
24 I like to move around a lot. I don’t like to stay in one place. So far I’ve lived in Alaska, Utah, Idaho, Portland, LA, Sacramento, All over the Czech Republic and KY all in the past 9 years.
25 My favorite book is “The Odyssey”, followed closely by “The Once and Future King
26 And one to grow on… My favorite monster is a vampire (whose isn’t?) but not because of those queer twilight vampires, but because they are the coolest monsters in the world. I mean, if you had to choose one monster to be, wouldn’t you choose a vampire? That’s what I thought.

YOu are the male version of me...minus the geographic tongue. Ewww! I think it is the Grandma Roberts in us that makes us want to wander...she was quite the rebel but without the freedom. Really quite sad. Anyway, it was awesome to read your blog even though it aged me...there was nothing like the 90's for TV by the way. Seinfled, Cheers, Friends, Melrose Place, SNL (during it's prime, Absolutely Fabulous, 3rd Rock from the Sun, Fresh Prince of Belair...those were the good ol' days! Stay cool!

Oh and yes, clearly vampires are the coolest....I think it might be pretty hard to say no to Brad Pitt.
