Today's Tuesday Teaser has been rescheduled for Friday. I'm
going to call it my Friday Flirtation. Instead I have something fun to share.
I've received the Sunshine Award from friend and fellow
author, Jianne Carlo. This fun award requires I reveal ten things not many
people know about me, so be prepared, the baton will be passed to ten of my
blogger friends.
Here are the rules: You have to tell you ten things about
you that most people don’t know or wouldn’t expect and then tag 10 more people
to do the same. I'm a big mouth, so there's very little about me that others
don't already know, so, just like Jianne, it took me a while to come up with
ten.
1) Most people know I
grew up in Las Vegas, Nevada, under the flight path of the Thunderbirds (the
Air Force's Air Demonstration Squadron), but what most don't know was that when
I was ten or eleven, my older brother and younger sister and I found unexploded
ordinances in the desert near our home and my dad had to call the base to come
collect them. It was a good thing my brother talked me and my sister out of
taking it home to play with it. LOL
2) In my late teens,
I often stripped out of my clothes to dress in a bathing suit in full view of
other drivers on the road to Lake Mead or Lake Havasu. Guess I wasn't shy
then...
3) In sixth grade
when I shattered the bone behind the second knuckle of my left pinky finger it
was set by the doctor without anesthesia, not because I was that brave, but
because I'm terrified of needles!
4) Hmm, considering
#3, I guess it's now apparent this isn't a secret...I'm horribly
needle-phobic...can't stand them I cringe at the sight of them. It takes me
days to work up the courage just to get blood drawn for physicals. ICK!
5) I am addicted to
documentary television (History channel, ID Discovery channel, Biography
channel, Forensic Files, Notorious, etc.) I can spend days watching the various
true crime programs and the ideas I get from them are frightening. *WEG*
6) I have two tattoos
7) I actually have a
picture of a ghost taken when I visited a plantation in North Carolina. (Yes, I
believe in ghosts and reincarnation...and lots of other things)
8) The first book I
sold was actually finished on the day the editor asked for the full manuscript
(I don't recommend authors do this...I've gotten better about finishing the
books before I submit them.)
9) Twice I've given
away nearly an entire apartment full of furniture when I moved (When I left
Alaska and then again when I left Montana.)
10) I have been known to watch a movie more than ten times
in a movie theater as well as that many times or more when the movie is
released on DVD--you might say I can be obsessive about films.
And now:
Here are the 10 people I'm passing the Sunshine Award on to!
