Random Facts About Yourself... - Page 4

circusboy28 · 05-29-2009, 07:01 AM

I love pavlova, blueberry smoothies & Indian food

I have 15 pairs of sneakers & I only wear Levis

I can't always say what I think - it doesn't come out the same

When I answer the phones at work I have to be professional & polite, but I really want to scream at them

I hid my 3 year olds Easter eggs & told told him that the Easter Bunny had taken them back because he was eating too much chocolate. He still tells me that he hates the Easter bunny

At present I seem to be more excited about buying new equipment than using it, the thrill of a new guitar wears off & end up just playing my Strat

that's all that's come into my head for now

I love flying because airports are the best places to people watch.

JMV · 05-29-2009, 11:36 AM

I try to eat sushi on a regular basis. Yum.

I'll experiment with just about ANY kind of food. I rarely order something that doesn't sound like an odd dish.

djwilbanks · 05-29-2009, 11:36 AM

I'd just go to the airport and people watch if I wanted to people watch.

Oh, I also love lakes and oceans and rivers, but I hate, hate deep water I can't see through. I also hate the idea of being on open water in the ocean.

Skynyrdpicker · 05-29-2009, 11:38 AM

I've got size 15 shoes.
I listen to Boxcar Willie (sometimes

)
I've played lead roles in 2 substantial plays.
I have over 10 Green Pine air fresheners in my car.

I never thought about it much growing up. But even now, as a pastor, I still hate public speaking...

Oh, and people watching is my favorite part of flying. There are plenty of other good people-watching areas.

My wife is just as bad as I am. We used to go out to eat and realize we weren't talking because both of us were watching other people and listening to their conversations. We're much better about it now.

- I get a blinding migraine if i don't regularly drink caffeine.
- I personally think Sub Woofers are the best invention ever.

I had to borrow the above because they apply.

I can attest to the fact that it sucks to be getting old.

I have a permanent blood disorder which requires daily medication.
