Seven Random Acts of Confession

I have been tagged by LDP to list 7 random facts about myself.

1. Like LDP I like to play a game where I make other people's words sound dirty. Only, unlike LDP, I am crass enough to say these thoughts out loud.

2. I have a filthy mouth. I was forbidden to say anything that sounded like a curse word while I was growing up. Even "shoot" was off limits. I think this is part of the reason why I have a filthy mouth but I also think I like the shock factor. I look like a very sweet girl who would never utter such filth. So, I feel compelled to push the limits.

3. I love children but don't ever want to have any of my own. I would go so far as to get my tubes tied if my insurance covered it. For some reason lots of people are offended when I say this and I can never for the life of me figure out why.

4. I didn't learn to drive until I was in my 20's. I was deathly afraid to drive and now I cannot remember why.

5. I have a rare personality types (if you believe in such things). I'm an INFJ and I have on occasion had psychic experiences. I swear I don't read palms or tarot cards or have psychic visions all the time but I have had several dreams that came true. The first one I remember was when I was around 5 years old. My mom was contemplating moving to a new town and living with a friend she used to work with who had recently moved and gotten a great new job. After my mom told my sister and I the news, I had a dream that her friend's house burned down. I told my mom the dream and that we couldn't move. A few days later my mom's friend had a huge fire at her house and it burned to the ground.

6. I have a rich fantasy life. I take the train to work and I often imagine different events unfolding. For example; if I'm listening to a really great song on my Ipod, I imagine the song blaring through the train on the loud speaker and everyone dancing in the aisles. Of course, I imagine myself singing the lyrics. Sometimes I have hero fantasies. I imagine someone getting on the train with a gun and I'm standing in the aisle holding on to an overhead bar. I spot the person with the gun and do a pull up on the bars as fast as lightening and then do an amazing kick/thrust move that propels me into the gunman and pins him to the ground. I wrestle the gun away and hit him in the head with it repeatedly. I don't have any aggression issues or anything. I also fantasize about winning the lottery but never ever buy a ticket.

7. I am not very adventurous. I tend to go to the same places and do the same things. I guess I'm a creature of habit but then I worry I'm missing out on something. I suppose my lack of adventure translates in to impulse control issues (see numbers 1 & 2) and to a rich fantasy life as mentioned above in number 6.

Wow, that's some hero fantasy. Are you in street clothes or dressed as Batgirl?

Well, a blast from the past... Not the Michelle I pictured 5 years ago! LOL I was suprised I didn't see one of your goals as writing that childrens book...
Ok, I was going to go off and not let you know who this was, but that would actually drive me nuts.

Hope you are doing great!
Anita (Santa Cruz, CA) That should narrow it down a bit. LOL
