8 Things You Don't Know About Me

I've been tagged to post a list of 8 things you don't know about me. Here goes:
  1. I repeated kindergarten. Yep, that's right, I failed a class that consisted mostly of coloring and trying not to wet your pants.
  2. For a brief time in the 80's I had the back of my hair grown out and permed...and no, I wasn't in an 80's pop band.
  3. I have owned a pair of "Michael Jackson" parachute pants with zippers all over them.
  4. I have never had a broken bone.
  5. For the longest time, I thought spinning classes consisted of people spinning around...wouldn't that make them dizzy?
  6. I have never read any of the Harry Potter books nor seen any of the movies. I know, I know...I'm missing out, so sue me
  7. I used to have the entire script to "It's Christmas Time Charlie Brown" and "The Grinch that Stole Christmas" memorized. I wholly blame my obsessive little sister over that. She probably still has it memorized.
  8. I wish I had an eyesight problem, so I'd have an excuse to wear glasses. I think they look good on me.

Just wanted to clarify.........you didn't "fail" kindergarten.....we held you back on the recommendation of your teacher because of your young age. I don't want people to think you weren't smart enough to pass K - you were (and still are) very intelligent!!!

I totally knew all this stuff- and more! You should seriously think about paying me off not to reveal all the other dirt I have on you, big brother!

Uh, like, you didn't tag anyone. Which by the way is sooo you, to 'play tag' - get tagged and forget to tag back... may harken back to the 'failing kindergarten' thing... ha ha...

and can we believe your teacher? who said you should be held back cuz of your tender age? She said, "He's like 21 days younger than everyone else and, (mumble, mumble) a little slow on the uptake in general..."

Sorry I couldn't resist.

It's ok, we will blame this on your parents 'allowing you to be afraid of vegetables'... if you had eaten them you see...

Beth, that's okay, you're entitled to your opinion, freedom of speech and all. By the way, which amendment in the Bill of Rights was that? Yeah, I thought so...back at ya!
