sara_merry99 on this one.
1. I hold a degree from a historically black university (Morgan State in Baltimore) despite being white.
2. I started smoking when I was thirteen and quit when I was thirty-two. (I'm thirty-five now.)
3. I'm excessively fond of the works of Terry Pratchett.
4. I can't sing worth a damn.
5. I don't own a television set.
6. I was a virgin until I was eighteen. That wasn't out of morals or anything, more like the fact that nobody'd ever asked.
7. I'm a damn fine cook.
8. Back when the GRE had an analytical section (it does not now), I scored a perfect score (800) on that part.
9. I'm easily frustrated by inefficiency, incompetence, and blind stupidity. It also bothers me when people don't *get it* fast enough.
10. I'm a member of Phi Beta Kappa. Go me! That (plus four dollars and three cents) will get me a venti vanilla latte.
11. I don't find things well. With a map or written directions, I do all right, but without those, I will be lost. This is the case even if I've been to your house ten times before this time.
12. I will not eat instant mashed potatoes ever, for any reason, including 'to be polite'. Do not try to feed me instant and claim they are real.
13. The less well I know you, the more likely you are to get a thank-you note from me.
14. I really like the sound of my own prose and I reread particularly good sections on occasion. This has not, as yet, made me blind but it probably should.
15. I've seen Iron Maiden in concert, though not recently.
16. I'm right-handed.
17. I made no-bake cookies this evening.
18. I like currants better than raisins.
19. I voted for W. I am not sure, at this point, that Kerry would have been worse. It was what I thought at the time, though.
20. I hold public office.
