1. My great-great grandmother was a Squaw.
2. Regarding food, I tasted one brussel sprout in my life and quickly spit it out. I treat myself to baby beef liver and onions twice a year. I’m not too picky.
3. My least favorite household chore is dusting. I’d rather scrub a toilet. When I dust the house, I play my favorite music loudly to take my mind off the misery.
4. I have a natural talent for drawing. My art was displayed in public libraries during my school years. Artistic talent is God-given but it needs nurturing and work. I've wasted it but I hope to get it back one day.
5. I can wiggle my ears. I’m right-handed but use my left hand for dealing playing cards, vacuuming, and other things.
6. My first “official” kiss happened when I was thirteen years old at a boy-girl party in a psychedelic basement (parents upstairs) while playing Spin the Bottle. I wore fish-net stockings...ughh. We were probably listening to something like Iron Butterfly’s “Inagodadavida” and the little creep slipped me his tongue and I was so grossed out I could hardly sleep that night.
7. My typing speed is 75 wpm with 100% accuracy. Whoopee! I’m only that good during a test. I also take shorthand (I’m dating myself, I know…) but haven’t taken it since 2001 when I told my boss it was a waste of my time and his. That forced him to learn the keyboard.
8. I’m not a jock, by any means, but I’m a great fan and spectator of any sport. I can play Badminton, and basketball, though. Love it.
9. When I was in the fifth and sixth grade, I aspired to become a Catholic School Sister of Providence. I loved the smell of their starched habits as they walked passed my little desk and the mystery behind the headpiece. That dream was thwarted when I had my first “crush”.
10. I’ve never used an illegal drug, except for taking one drag of marijuana when I was 22. It was awful. Pot stinks.
11. I don’t have a college degree. There have been times during my life I’ve regretted entering the workforce after high school and not continuing my education. However, I have held some very fine and successful jobs along the way.
12. I LOVE TO DANCE (a lot of people already know it).
Would anyone like to join me in revealing a few things about yourself? There are a few items above that I never told anyone before and I didn't mind telling one bit!
The day wouldn’t be complete if I didn’t post a “bewd” picture.
A Carolina Wren loving the suet.

Mary - I enjoy learning more things about you. I may have to try this next week if/when I have nothing to blog about.
I'll dust if you do toilets. I absolutely hate doing toilets. I've blogged about it before, that's how much I hate it. I do it, but it grosses me to the max. The scrub brush can't have a long enough handle!
Drawing - cool, I look forward to artwork in your future.
Oh, I love to dance, too. Does Michael like to dance? I have a hard time finding any guys that likes to dance! Except at the clubs - yuck-o scum-o.
I love your bewd photo. Spring is coming, spring is coming. . . I have to keep telling myself that.
Pam, there's nothing better than to watch men dance and/or dancing with them! Michael does dance, but not as enthusiastically as I do. I don't like cleaning toilets, but dislike dusting more :) I hope you play the game soon!
I'll trade you toilet cleaning for dusting any day!
I love to play basketball.
I can type 75 words a minute, none of them correct!!! ha!
How can you eat liver and onions and not like Brussels sprouts?
My husband likes dusting - maybe I can loan him to you?
This was fun - maybe I should play along - I'm having blogger's block lately!
Great learning about you! BTW: Love your wren photo! I sure wish they would come to my feeder !
You just get more and more interesting.
I don't know if I could come up with 5 things that all of you don't know yet.
I loved reading your "things we didn't know about Mary" and will have to also give this some thought and blog about it this week! Sweet wren!
Mary, I enjoy to know more things about you. Me,I hate to iron! I absolutely can make a single drawing! I love to watch other people dance!
Have a nice Sunday!
Too Fun!! Mmm, liver and onions and BACON! I hate toilets too. Yuck!! I can only draw stick people. I wanted to be a nun too!
Gee, I'm glad I have a few things in common with some of you :) Pretty exciting stuff, huh?
This was one of those posts where I bored myself to tears throughout the whole thing. I hope no one dozed off...
