Post a random fact about yourself.

@Gunther Don't I know it. Not really worried about them, well no more than a mother does, more of a kick them out of a nest than hold on type. My daughter has a good head on her shoulders: Supports herself/works/college, and I'm not naive enough to think she hasn't been drinking, lol. And with my oldest son, well went through the whole learners permit thing with his sister. It's just one of those milestone years for two of the kids so it brings it to the forefront a bit more than seeing the grays in the mirror every day does, lol.

Random Factoid: First book series I actually recall reading was the Boxcar Children. O.o

[Sugar and Spite]

The first book series I ever remember reading is The Magic Treehouse series.

My favorite books in elementary school however were the 'Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark'.

[SgtSlayer]

I hate apples. No, I DESPISE them.

[Vampiretwilight]

I hate pineapples with a passion. yuck!

[Darcel]

Right now dealing with a toss up of which is worse - my daughter being old enough to drink (legally) on her next birthday, or my oldest son getting his learners permit this summer. (Neither are making me feel like a spring chicken lol)

@Lady Absinthia

Protective mother. You just don't want them to grow up.

[Vampiretwilight]

Someone in my family once tried to get me to try alcohol right after I turned 21. I rejected it right off the bat. I don't drink and I never will.

@Chasebloodcrest

Don't want them to grow up? Considering she is grown, I'd say that ship has sailed. I just don't like being reminded of my own age, which is what happens every time one of my trio of miscreants passes one of their own milestones.

Random Factoid: I won't eat marshmallows anymore unless I've made them personally.

There are times for which I have no explanation for phenomena I encounter. One of which, which was in no small way startling, was a simple electronic clock which produces no radio traffic. I had the tremendous displeasure of it suddenly, without warning in the early hours of the morning, emitting static which I can only describe similar to a radio or telephone with distortion in the background. Needless to say, were it have to been alive, it would be dead now although I can come to no good solution how the initial incident took place. It was not a dream, not at all this time, and this was not the first time some device decided to become provocative with this great cat.

I hate olives.

[SgtSlayer]

@Vampiretwilight

Yay! I'm not the only one who hates usually beloved fruits.

[Vampiretwilight]

@SgtSlayer
:)

everyone:
I hate peaches too. yuck!

[Gunther]

I like Olives, Peaches and Pineapples. I might eat a marshmallow once in a while too; especially in S'mores or hot chocolate.

[Vampiretwilight]

I like marshmallows, especially the tiny ones that people put in hot chocolate.

[BiffleChump]

I enjoy most fruits, but I prize oranges, blueberries, and dates the highest of them all.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

I do not like fruit, it is that straight forward.

[Vampiretwilight]

I often wish I could win the lottery.

[Gunther]

I often wish I could win the lottery.

@Vampiretwilight

I have a contingency plan in place, prepared for just such a rare occurrence. The plan does not include quitting work.

@Gunther

I was told 'keep my job' whenever I mentioned the topic 'if I won the lottery'. one of the best pieces of advice I heard. After all, you never know if the money will run out or not.

[justjames]

I often get too comfortable with people and tend to be a bit less filtered and more rant-y, and I am 2300% sure it bothers my friends. And really bothers my close friends.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

On the matter of the lottery, I did also know a man who won the lottery. Not the whole winning but some twenty-thousand dollars was their winnings. The more I reflect on it, the more I realize I knew many strange, unusual, uncanny persons.
