Day Ten: One confession

1. I can speak three languages, and (sort of) read a fourth. And also: Das Auto ist blau.
   
2. I go by my middle name because I hated my first name when I was a kid.
   
3. I can bend my left pinkie backwards until it touches the back of my hand. It's kinda gross.
   
4. My family doc thought I was anorexic when I was twenty. I thought I had some kind of wasting disease.
   
5. I was in labour less time with two kids than most women are with one.
   
6. When we got married, we walked down the aisle together. Although technically it wasn't an aisle, but a path to a gazebo.
   
7. I often dream of visiting Antarctica, the Shetland Islands, and Iceland. Then I remember that I don't like cold very much.
   
8. My cat's name is Jehovah. We once had another cat, named Shiva. And Justin has decided that when he gets a kitten, he will name it Apollo or Athena.
   
9. I've tried to give blood three times. They won't let me try again :(

March to your own drum

Youngish woman on the bus today was most probably heading off to an office job. Shoulder-length hair, loose but nicely styled, short-sleeved knee-length print dress, medium-high heels. I do wonder what office she works at, though, because her hair was bright orange (as in, pretty but clearly dyed, with no attempt to make her look like a natural redhead), her dress had every shade of pink from baby pastel pink to dark fuchsia, her shoes were shiny blood red patent leather, and she had lovely tattoos on both arms all the way from her shoulders to her wrists.

Somehow the net effect was weirdly attractive, once you got past the eye-bleed ;)

Hi ho, hi ho

It's off to home I go :D :D :D
