I got tagged by Ms Sizzle the other week to list 10 honest things about myself.  So here goes:

1) I used to play the piano, and for a nine year old I thought I was pretty good.  I stopped practicing not too long after my lessons stopped, which I didn’t regret until some years later.

2) If I seem to shift back and forth a lot it’s not because I’m antsy.  Due to what I’ll call a structural defect it’s extremely uncomfortable for me to stand in one place for very long.  The shifting about is an attempt to juggle my weight from leg to leg.

3) I haven’t seen my dad in five years.  I don’t seem to mind.  I’m not sure if that should bother me or not.

4) Related to the above, I didn’t let anyone in my family know that I was coming to San Diego last summer.  I do miss some of my cousins quite a bit but if you see some of the family you pretty much end up having to see all of them.

5) I am my own biggest critic.

6) Despite appearances I am actually a pretty big introvert.  I have just learned over the years to do what it is you people-persons do.

7) I miss San Diego something fierce, but I think there is too much of the Pacific Northwest in me to ever really go home again.

8 ) I often think that I have no real creativity to speak of, and in fact am just ripping off other people who are better at what I do than I am.

9) I have long wished I was able to sing.

10) All this disclosure made me twitch.

Feel like playing along?  Tag.  You’re it.
