Ten things you might not know about me

[vaneramos]

Idea stolen from dotmeister

1. I got bucked off a horse and broke my arm when I was 13.
2. I have the same birthday as two of my favourite actors, Bruce Willis and Glenn Close.
3. I have a fetish for bikers, but have never ridden a motorcycle.
4. I have a grade 8 in piano, and also played clarinet and baritone saxophone in school.
5. I worked as a newspaper reporter in Walkerton a few years before the tragic tainted water scandal.
6. My last car got totalled in an accident on Jarvis Street in Toronto in November 2000. It was my fault.
7. My younger daughter was conceived despite use of a condom, diaphragm and spermicidal lube.
8. Excluding videos, I haven't watched TV since June.
9. As a kid, I put Dewey decimal codes on all my books.
10. The surgery I had in March obliterated my navel.

Good job!

Wow, sometimes you can really learn about someone!

Cool. If we were ever to have sex, I could pretend that you're a space alien. ;-)

Wow , she *really* wanted to be born, eh?

[vaneramos.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, I forgot.

11. I'm an alien, and I always keep my ray gun set on stun. ;-)

No kidding. She has always had a clever streak. In hindsight, her first trick was a happy miracle. She was utterly wanted.

We all come from the Mmothership
And to Her we shall return
Like a bolt of ectoplasm
Shooting from a zapper gun

And I had blissfully forgotten the rest of the words.

The Alien is of age now,
We can have sex with Him

Oooo, reading this was so much fun. Sucks that it was your fault. I had one of those, too. Was stressed out and didn't realize at the time that my periferal vision isn't as good as it should be. Took a left turn into another car. No one was hurt, thank God. The guy in the other car tried to get me to go to dinner with him. Even tracked me down through my sister's number that I forwarded my calls to when I left for PA. When I didn't respond, he sued me. Oh, it was a deal. They kept wanting depositions, and all I could ever say was, "I took a left turn into the guy."

Wow...

...even I haven't gone so far as to put Dewey numbers on my books, and I'm a librarian in a public library (Although I do have my private collection arranged in approximate Dewey order.)

May I assume that #3 explains the only other photograph (you all dolled up for a night on the town) which caused me to slap my hands over the computer screen and look guiltily over my shoulder at work? As a native San Franciscan, it sent me all over wistful and homesick--takes me back that.

A bit of nastiness. Without going into too much detail, I had a ruptured colon last October and had to have a colostomy for five months. It was reversed in March, I was put back together, and I am all healed now, minus a few inches of large intestine and most of my navel, plus a couple scars.

The leather scene is another whole sector of the gay community, in which I sometimes dabble. Leather is a fetish, with different meanings for everyone. I like the look of men who go to leather bars, usually more rugged, not so smooth-shaven and pretty. For some, leather is a lifestyle. For me is just fun once in a while.

but that would be going a bit far. it's slightly
herniated since i gained this weight. looks like
