Tagged, but still moving
I've been tagged to write 10 things about me by www.peopleinthesun.com. A few are complete bullpoop. Any ideas as to which ones?
1. I recently changed my name to Kirsten (Man) Noelle Turkey School Lindquist, legally.
2. While in India, I almost lost the tip of my toe during a tragic encounter with the front door of the hotel gym.
3. I own a drum set.
4. I’m allergic to Raspberries.
5. I strongly considered going to college for Paleontology after seeing the first Jurassic Park movie. I was so obsessed with dinosaurs that I adorned my teenage bedroom with various dino-related paraphernalia.
6. When I was 3, I received an immunization for Meningitis during an outbreak at the Montessori I attended in Auburn, New York. We lived next door to the prison.
7. I enjoy the smell of new tires and pool chemicals.
8. The last person to hit on me was a chick, at a drag show.
9. For some reason, I cannot sleep or nap on a plane. It’s as though I need to stay on guard in the event something should happen. How very Owen Meany of me.
10. I refused to serve Allen Ginsberg fresh lemonade at a Café I used to work at.
(I'll tag 3 later...)
Comments
I think #1 and #6 are bs, but not sure on the third yet. Thanks for reminding me that my birthplace is best known for a maximum security prison!

Thanks for doing that.
1. Me too!
2. Hotel gym doors in India are notorious for that. Don't you watch National Geographic?
3. That's cool.
4. That's cool, too.
5. Dinosaurs are fun. Whenever I'm in a museum and see a T-Rex I become excited like Calvin (from Calvin and Hobbs).
6. I believe that. Montessori schools are fun. Did they make you play a game where you gave each other shots?
7. New tires, yes. Pool chemicals, no.
8. Chicks at drag shows... Can't live with them, can't live without.
9. I feel silly putting the seatbelt on. I mean, how many people have been saved from airplane accidents by using a seatbelt? But I still tighten it to the point of pain.
10. And now he's dead!!! Of thirst!!!

i shall elaborate and reveal "true," "not true" and "semi true" later ;)

I pick #1 because...well, duh. #10 just because he has been dead for a good amount of your timeframe available for legal employment and who could get offended by a beat poet? I am not confident on this being one of the three but I will say the Dino fetish. However that could end up being "Semi-true".
If I had hit on you in this comment would that make number 8 untrue or just make me a creepy random internet person? (I think both.)

it would not make it untrue - and since i don't even know who you are, creepy. :)

I'm no expert on Auburn, but I don't believe they have a Montessori school. I say #6 is false. The rest are true, true, true (except for #4).

well i know #8 is true because I was that "woman" at the drag show. honestly, all the rest sound like a bunch of bull... there's NO WAY you're allergic to raspberries! simply impossible!!

Olivia you know it wasn't you! If it was, I wouldn't have qualified for the ribbon prize!

@Kir - Yeah, that would be creepy. Sorry I made the joke, hope you didn't take it seriously.

Me: That's one of my good points, I don't take anything or anyone seriously.
