Random Boring Facts

1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?

Nope. My mom scoured the birth announcements in the paper in the 6-month prelude before my birth, watching for which names were most popular (then she wouldn't choose them). She picked what ended up being THE single most popular girl's name for approximately 2 decades.

2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?

I might've cried a bit last night while watching a chick flick. Hence, I watch them rarely.

3. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING?

My lovely handwriting went quickly downhill when I entered college and was forced to write notes in double-time during lectures. However, I think it's recovering enough to say "yes."

4. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT?

I'd have to say pastrami.

6. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?

It's a good question. I'm not sure. It would depend on the "another person" personality. There are definitely some that do NOT click with me.
