Hi, gang! I was originally planning on putting up a Free For All post today, but I'm feeling a need to meme. We tend to get a lot of participation on the getting-to-know-you type memes, and I'm always fascinated by the types of things I learn about 'Shipper Nation from these things. You can certainly feel free to comment with whatever visual media or text you might feel like sharing as if it were a Free For All, but I'll offer the following meme starter as a jumping off point:

5 Things You Don't Know About Me

This should be fairly self-explanatory. :) The 5 can be as personal or silly as you care to share. If a couple folks on the comm already know them, that's OK, too. My favorite part of these memes is the conversations they start, so let's get to know each other a little more!

1) I don't like to watch or talk about it--I like to do. I'm more action than words. Player vs Spectator.

2) I've been into 'doing things' since a little kid. I've played sports since elementary school despite being overweight most of my life.

3) I was the only girl on my Little League baseball team. They didn't have girls' softball available until Jr High. I went onto soccer in Sr High, then after graduating: rec co-ed volleyball, got my Blackbelt in American Kenpo and played six years on a Women's Tackle Football team. My knees hate me--and it's mutual now that they don't work ;^)

4) I'm naturally shy, yet managed to do Mime in High School and sing Karaoke (very badly) without having been plied with drinks first.

5) Most alcohol tastes NASTY to me. Can't even stand the smell. But I can tolerate a well-made Long Island Ice Tea, go figure :)

*hugs super tight*

I love all of these. And I know this sounds odd, but I think I could have guessed four out of five of them. Not sure why.

Now, which one do YOU think surprised me, Ms. M? Hmmmm....? ;>)

The liking a Long Island Ice Tea, since it's pretty much ALL hard liquor?

Never visualized you running a bar. It always amazes me what people have done & experienced in their lives :) Don't spectate, participate!

The mime one threw me. LOL

What? After I said I don't do words, I do actions? Tsk-tsk...

I just "get" that you are a doer. Mime just... *frowny eyes* They scare me a tiny bit. LMAO

Hee hee! Nope. It's like clowns. I can't explain WHY I find them so freaky, I just do. LOL (Nice callback though ;-)
