25 Things You May Not Know About Me

I would really like it if you would post your own lists here too. I stole this idea from Michelle and Malissa. Okay, a list of 10 things would be good too. Thanks.

I am claustrophobic
I was caught stealing a piece of bubblegum when I was very little
I was sent to prison for that crime, just kidding. I have never been in prison
I have been living with my husband since the first day we went out together (33 years ago)
I like tequila
I don't have any tattoos
I sing like a bird...the crow is the closest example
I used to go dancing in nightclubs 6 nights a week
I have never danced with my husband (okay maybe one time only)
I dance to very loud rock and roll at home by myself (see # 5)
Monkeys and primates are my favorite animals
Sometimes I look like I am listening to you but really I am not
I dropped out of school in grade 11
I think I am smarter than many people who went on to university and got degrees
I underestimated how hard it would be to come up with 25 things about myself
I think I am a good friend
I like to feed people (I don't mean by hand I mean by cooking for company)
I hate taking classes and like to learn stuff on my own
I would have liked to have gone to med school (instead I just learned it on my own..see previous note)
I grew up in the projects
I hate camping
I work best under pressure
I have held a hummingbird in my hand
I don't care if your house is messy
I don't care if my house is messy either

I know it is hard to come up with 25. More will pop into your head now. It is amazing how little we actually think about who we are. Thanks for sharing Norma. Look how long I've known you and I didn't know hardly any thing on your list.
