Sixteen Things

This was part of a Facebook game...
  1. I don't have 16 friends, but the ones I have are worth 16 each. Some more.
  2. When I live near a coast, I eat Sushi every day, but other than that, I don't eat meat, and I utterly dislike cheese and dairy products. Except ice cream, which I scream for.
  3. I finished in the top 100 (top 8%) in the 2008 World Series of Poker Ladies World Championship - No Limit. It was my first ever bracelet event. I recently made it a life goal to win a bracelet and make a living doing it.
  4. I speak French like a 4th grader and Italian like a one-night stand.
  5. I'm autodidactic; taught myself how to play piano, program computers, juggle, dive, think, chew food, and masturbate.
  6. I learned about Love from TV and Movies. Life has shown me otherwise, but I'm still a hopeless romantic. Or maybe that's romantically hopeless, the jury's still out!
  7. I've composed/arranged 7 Christmas albums. Played all the instruments too. Haven't listened to a Christmas song since. Also made 4 other albums with 2 other bands... still listening to songs.
  8. As a child, I read, read, read, all I could read. I recently made it my other life goal to develop my career as a writer.
  9. I was born in the Midwest, lived in New York, but not so long to make me hard and lived in San Francisco, but not so long I got soft. I've travelled around the world, but haven't seen enough of it, and my heart, still, is in my flat in London. Could someone please ship it back?
  10. Role models have included: Einstein, Greg Lugainis & Wendy Lian Williams, Sting, Douglas Adams (& Trillian), Hedwig, Gwen Stefani, George Carlin and of course, my friends.
  11. I once interviewed Gerald Ford as a member of the peanut butter press. No kidding; still have the badge! Bill Clinton spoke at my college graduation (while he was president)... my roommate's dad was friends with Hilary in high school. Obama hasn't met me yet, but when he does, I hope he'll hire me as his technological advisor. Or PA, I'm not picky in that matter.
  12. I once medicated myself with fresh magic mushrooms daily for eight weeks. Best summer ever. Also partied with the guy who drove the buggy on the moon. Well, one of the guys. To this day, he is still the bar by which all adrenaline junkies get measured.
  13. An avid 'green advocate' I've not owned a car since 2001. Yes, I walk everywhere. Not coincidentally, I've also lived near work and a grocery since 2001.
  14. In an attempt to simplify my life, I sold nearly everything I owned (a house full of stuff... and a house!) and now live with just a few meagre possessions. Okay, they're not meagre at all, they're pretty cool things, but they all fit together in a big car (that I don't have).
  15. I make love like a woman, but throw like a man.
  16. When I grow up I want to be famous, see the world, drive nice cars; I wanna have groupies (but I'll settle for boobies).
