And yet 20 more-- no I haven't forgotten

41. I love live concerts-- any type. Classical, rock, etc. It is just electric being there, experiencing it.

42. I've been hit on by a lesbian. At a concert. She was running her fingers through my hair and everything. She even put my phone number in her cell phone. (I knew she was so drunk she wouldn't remember the next day.) I think she thought I was gay but didn't know it yet. But, alas, I have never been to an Indigo girls concert so . . .

43. I love writing in my journal. That doesn't mean I do it that often but it is very therapeutic.

44. In all honesty, I once faked a book report in Junior High. It was the book "Maria". A biography of Maria Von Trapp. I never read it. Never have.

45. I am against plastic surgery. That's my own opinion and you are entitled to yours. I've had several friends who have had boob jobs, and that's fine for them. But then who knows, let's see what I think of that in 20 years!

46. Yes, I did sneak out of my house in HS. (Sorry mom and dad.) We even pulled the whole pushing the car out of the driveway. They probably knew.

47. I'm not a good liar and I hate it. My sister loves to tell the story of how when my dad asked us if we were out after curfew I said "I don't know, maybe, which night was it?" She tells the story much better than me.

48. I've dated Americans, a Dane, Australian, German and married a Canadian. I'm very culturally open!

49. I love the rain. Love it. It is so refreshing, invigorating--wonderful.

50. I hate the wind. Ugh. It makes the cold, colder, and the hot, stickier.

51. I am terrified of heights. I remember as a kid going to Bryce Canyon and being scared stiff on our hike. In HS we did a ropes course and I was shaking like a leaf. Good thing I didn't pee my pants. I was close.

52. Sometimes, I think people like me better before they get to know me really well.

53. I LOVE Buffalo Wings!! And gummy candy.

54. Again, it's a good thing I have a fast metabolism because I am a total bedtime snacker. I know, I know, don't eat after 8. Too bad. I do it all the time. Right now I am thinking about what I will be having for my bedtime snack. Peanut butter and apples? (A classic.)

55. I once won on a call in radio show for oldies 94.9. (Granted it was a ham, and I never picked it up, but still.)

56. I am banned from the Arby's in Hermiston, OR. Do you think they still remember?

57. I am a napper. Afternoon hits and my eyelids are heavy. Ah, sweet relief. I love me a good nap.

58. I am a giver. But sometimes the selfish side of me comes out and I wish I could get a little more.

59. I love nature. It makes me feel closer to God. I love to go out for walks, hikes, camp. This earth is gorgeous and I am constantly amazed by it.

60. I've died my hair almost everycolor. (Purple, black, maroon, red, blond--not blue, not yet at least!) Even did the kool-aid thing.

You willing to do another 40 more?

I've gone blond and it wasn't pretty. I think my body was rejecting such a crazy notion.

I love all these "true confessions"!

46. Never did. I was such a goodie goodie.

47. Me neither! I always gave myself away.

48. A Czech, a (half) Brazilian, and married a Canadian also. :)

53. Gummy candy is the best!

55. I won a scooter. :)

Can't wait for another 40!

Bring it on! Just so you know, I like you more and more as I get to know you, not that I ever DIDN'T like you, but I really think you are a cool AND a good, solid, quality person. And your quirks rock!

I love finding out all these random facts about you!
55.I think a ham is the weirdest prize I have ever heard of. But I'm surprised that with your thrifty ways you didn't pick it up!

#45: THANK YOU. I agree completely. And I live in LA. I think we are outnumbered.

#49: When it rains, I like to open the windows! And nothing beats rain at bedtime. Ahhhhh.

#52: like you better before we know you well? Let's do another 40 and see. The previous 40 haven't scared me off yet!
