25 Things about me
I got tagged on The Facebook by my friend Jim... it took me a while to figure out what to say, so I figured that I better make a post about it....
- I think I look younger with short grey hair than I did when I had long red hair
- I have no gallbladder. I can thank my children for that.
- I long to drink wine and stare at Homer’s “Wine Dark Sea”
- I once spoke with Kathy Bates. We were both at the Hotel de Crillon in Paris. France.
- I love the History Channel and the Discovery Channel
- I was once named “Most likely to perform operatic Shakespeare”
- I can’t stop biting my nails
- I am very easy going. But if you end up on my shit list, you are there forever.
- My first French teacher, Mme. Berger made the students use French names in class. My name was Elise.
- It is now my daughter’s middle name.
- Sometimes my friend Randy still calls me that… although usually as Elise the sleaze. I then have to call him Philippe the creep
- I would be naked all the time if I could. There is nothing nicer than the sun and breeze on your skin.
- I live on a street that shares its name with a city in Florida. . Often, and I mean very often, the first part of the word is miss-spelled to include the word Penis.
- I believe in ESP, psychics, ghosts, UFOs, the Loch Ness Monster, Big Foot and the Yeti. In other words, I think there is too much we don’t understand to discount any of it. But I believe in science too.
- I have made croissants from scratch
- I never feel safe when there is lightning. When I was little my grandmother told me how she was almost struck by lightning in the basement. If you can’t be safe underground, then where?
- I once had a three year period in my life when I had four abdominal surgeries
- My face was run over by a Flexible Flyer when my Uncle Bill took me sledding. He got in trouble for that, but it was another boys fault. I never thought that was fair. I also remember it taking four doctors and nurses to hold me down for the stitches.
- When people call me by the wrong name, inevitably the name they call me is Bridget. And they don’t know why because they don’t like the Bridget that they know.
- I am learning to speak Greek to be ready for #3. I am having trouble with the Cyrillic alphabet.
- I am excellent in an emergency, at a sick bed, with the dying or at a funeral. This is because I have had a lot practice.
- I have no respect for people who “can’t deal” or are “too uncomfortable” with their obligations related to #21. Grow up.
- I broke my foot by falling off of a pogo stick. Kristin Mattucci had to help me hop back home.
- I would rather be smart then beautiful, which is lucky for me as I am only one of those things.
- I always set off the metal detectors at the airport. I would rather take off my shirt and show the TSA that it is my bra setting off the alarm (which should be self-evident if you have seen me) then to have to have those people touch me.

Wow, that exercise would take me a month! I knew almost all of them except #6, 14, 16, 17, and 18. Not bad!
