Thursday Thirteen #1


Thirteen Things about Tinker


1…. I love shoes! I bet you did not know that. I have over 65 pairs.

2. Lobster is one of my favorite foods!

3. I am currently reading Pride and Prejudice.

4. I was mortified once many years ago. I was at the symphony and during the intermission I went to the refreshment area to get a glass of wine and I literally ran into/bumped into a woman who had the exact same dress on as me. I wanted to sink into the floor. She almost spilled her wine on me!

5. I saved my distant cousins life at a family reunion. He ( about 6 years old) was drowning in a swimming pool at the hotel and no parents were looking at him. Time stood still. I did not know him as I saw him sink below the water. He was in the deep end of the pool. I looked around and no parents were paying attention to the pool at all. I was 22. None of them could swim either..I jumped in and dove down to the bottom and fished him out. Only when I came back up yelling help did any parents turn around. I was shaken for the rest of the day.

6. Seeing Lord of the Dance changed my life! I now love all things celtic!

7. I like my eclectic nature. It makes me stand out in a crowd. Maybe as slightly odd, but I still stand out.

8. I like my sense of adventure. It is just sad that I do not have too many friends who want to do many of the adventurous things I want to do.

9. I am all about pirates right now. (Pirates of the Caribbean) I will a pirate for halloween this year.

10. I like the fact that I am raising dirty Fila differently than I was raised. I am doing a better job that what my mom did with me. Time brings change.

11. I tend to love too hard and too soon which usually results in a broken heart for me.

12. I miss my first love---the first man I was engaged to--he was my high school sweetheart. When I see him now or speak to him, reality sets in. I know why we did not make it. (Thank god)

13. I always have the feeling that something big is lurking just out of my view. Like I am on the cusp of something waiting to happen. I wish it would. I am ready for a big shapeup in my life!
