When I was in the 3rd grade I won an award for some poetry plagiarism or another. It was the only thing I had ever won.

Until now.

Megan has awarded me Honest Scrap.

Honest+Scrap

I got an award.  *blush*

Well shucks.

There are strings attached, oh yes, there are stipulations.

Stipulation No. 1:  I have to pay the Honest Scrap forward.  I select Sleepless in New Orleans and (L)ife on the Ledge.  I don’t follow many personal blogs as I hate people (although I have picked up a few recent pals, huh, Megan *wink*).

Stipulation No. 2:  10 fun facts about lil’ ol’me.  Maybe fun is a strong word but 10 things I feel like revealing in list format.

1-  I am not allowed to purchase string cheese in mass quantities.  ‘Coz I will eat it all.  Wait-wait-wait, I mean ALL of it.  Same day.  Whole bag.

2-  I was run over by a Bookmobile.

3-  I knew when I was 9 years old that I did not want children because even at 9 years old, I hated children.  In 26 years, this has not changed.

4-  When I was 18, I almost changed my name to Randi Jean.  Am happy I didn’t do it.

5-  I despise cold weather.  When the weather is cold, the titanium in my body is cold.  It hurts.  A lot.

6-  When I met my husband, I had blue hair.

7-  When I was a youngster I had an unhealthy obsession with Kenny Rogers.

8-  I grew up in a small town.  Like there are more people living in my apartment complex than there are in Belhaven, North Carolina.  I went from a town of 1,300 persons to a city of 6.4 million.

9-  The first time I ever wore thong undies I was in the car accident referenced under item No. 2 above and they had to be cut from my body.  I was mor-T-ified!

10-  I enjoy vacuuming.  Wait, that isn’t powerful enough.  I LOVE VACUUMING!  I even dream about it.
