I was tagged awhile back ...

So here's a few things about me that I'm sure everyone is dying to know. :o) I'm guessing you all know the rules, and everyone that has wanted to has already done this one so I won't tag.

1) I always stop and smell the roses. Even if just for a split second, I will truly appreciate something that I find appealing. Always.

2) I had the type of childhood that makes most normal people cringe.

3) I started riding motorcycles when I was 3. I raced them until I was 13 when evil step-monster #1 decided that "young ladies don't DO that" and banned me from them. Consequently ...

4) I ran away from home at 14. And owned a nicer car than she by the time I was 16. And since then have owned another 48 vehicles since I started driving at 15. Yup. 49 vehicles in 25 yrs.

5) I can rebuild a car from the ground up.

These things have caused me to have a lot more confidence than I probably should. Consequently ...

6) I have the 3rd most dangerous job in this country.

7) I have a genius level I.Q. And never use it. :o)

8) I have no friends. Male or female. And I'm really not all that upset about it. Oh, I have several acquaintances, and many folks that would probably consider me their friend, but I've always been a loner and since I work so much it's hard to make and/or maintain friends. I can, and have, always easily entertained myself. Does that make me a bad person? Hm.

But there you have it. More than you ever wanted to know about your local craftin' cabbie.

Wow M, 49 vehicles. That's a lot.I think you have done very well! I certainly can't say that I can rebuild a car. I just can find the oil top-LOL

Very interesting, you certainly have had an unusual life and 49 vehicles! Although your hands are used to rebuilding cars, they still manage to do some beautiful cross stitching.

#8 does not make you a bad person. I have always preferred entertaining myself, rather than be entertained or try to entertain others. (Although, with my sick sense of humor, it happens)

I knew there was a reason I liked you!

You are an original, and in no way a bad person! :)
