I go through gum fast.<BR/><BR/>2) I'm a night owl. I stay up late & sleep in. Luckily I have a son who sleeps in too! Hopefully the newborn will start sleeping through the night soon!<BR/><BR/>3) I'm a trained professional photographer & graphic designer. (Diploma for each). But I don't work in either!<BR/><BR/>4) My birthday is June 16th, and I love my birthday. My water broke on my birthday this year and my son was born the next day!<BR/><BR/>5) I'm a klutz.<BR/><BR/>6) I broke my right foot in the 7th grade. It's the only bone I've ever broken. I was in a cast for 2 months. It was broken by a door that swung open on my foot. It was an accident.<BR/><BR/>7) I've been to Europe 3 times in 1998, 2002 & 2006. Each time to about 8 countries at a time. (Some countries repetitive in the next trip, some new ones added in). Seems to me, I've gone country hopping every 4 years. I guess that means I'm going in 2010? <BR/><BR/>Ok, that's all I can think of for now.Montreal Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02103033161117912806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7397996365027453456.post-34459616272514011292008-08-14T12:14:00.000-04:002008-08-14T12:14:00.000-04:00Random Fact: I was hospitalized for a blood clot a...Random Fact: I was hospitalized for a blood clot at age 18, 11 weeks after my father had one in the same leg just after my high school graduation.<BR/><BR/>By the way, go take a hike.

About 50 folks were paid one dollar each to portray a full auditorium. They'd shift us around, 4 wide by 12 rows deep in the center for long shots from the stage, then two deep on each side of the aisle, then a 5x5 square, and so on. At one point the cameraman liked the look of "rapt attention" on my face and came in for a close-up. Like six inches from my face close-up. Other than that, I'm unknown. And I've spent the dollar.
