Most interesting thing about you?

[UnderProtest]

Prompted by my insane curiosity about livinintheville's adoption story, what is the most interesting thing about you?

I lead a really boring life so I guess mine would be that I dated (and married) my supervisor at work.

[UnderProtest]

Really? I know I'm a newbie, but NO one wants to play?

This is a very difficult question to answer.

Too much pressure.

I did a bellyflop on my honeymoon and ended up in the hospital for three months. I caused trauma to my chest which caused me to avebtwo major lung surgeries.

I was one of the first people to know about the Florida ballot situation in the 2000 election.

I call bullshit. You have a TON of interesting things. Starting with your cool house, your fun food blog and your shopping trips with grandma. I'm not as literal as you, you can pick more than one interesting thing.

I so need details on what exactly happened and what surgeries you had to have.

Ooooh, do tell, how did you know?

I'm actually pretty dull and boring. I guess the most interesting thing is the fact that I was on two game shows--Wheel of Fortune and Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

I went to Argentina as a foreign exchange student.

[devonpow]

I sang back up on a Kenny Loggins Christmas album in the 3rd grade.

I also have no depth perception so have never driven a car.

[LauraMoser]

I'll play.

I almost went to Seattle for my externship in Culinary School, but then I met DH.

Also, I come from a pretty large family, including 15 blood aunts and uncles (not counting those who married into the family), 26 cousins, and around 40 second cousins. My maternal grandma now has almost 30 great grandchildren!

[heygrey]

my gift for my 13th birthday was an antique John Deere tractor. my dad and i took it apart and restored it piece by piece.

You already know so much about me.

I think I'll leave this one alone. LOL.

It's long but I can compact it. I did a bellyflop and about a month later I had difficulty breathing. I went and had a lung tap and tons of fluid came out. It turned out that the trauma caused chylothhorax which is very rare. I had a chest tube and wasn't allowed to eat for 2 months I was feed thru a pic line. I had two Thoracotomies. The holes were sealed and eventually the fluid stopped. My left lung was filled with fluid. I am lucky!!

I think I'm pretty boring but I guess if I think about my childhood it might be interesting or sad LOL!

[Deleted]

This post makes me feel extremely dull in that I cannot think of anything interesting about myself.... I need to live a bit more.

[purrbox]

Hmmm... this is a toughie. One interesting thing about me (or at least I think) is that I'm really into fish. Aquarium fish, that is.

Also, I enjoy scuba diving, though I rarely get to do it.

I worked on a WWII submarine. Once a month during the summer, sub vets would come and hang out on the boat and tell stories. One of my biggest regrets is not brining a tape recorder to work on those days.

[btay]

I am a foot shorter than my husband

[squirrely]

I was stuck in an elevator 60 ft below ground by myself for three hours. It was pretty cold.

I'm written up in a medical textbook. In 1985 I had an ovarian ectopic pregnancy, meaning the fertilized egg implanted in (or possibly had not been released from) my ovary. This is very rare. I have two perfectly functioning (although now retired) tubes, but I lost the one ovary. I went on to have two perfectly normal pregnancies.

I was in a Papa Roach music video. My college roommate was dating a member of the band at the time.

The same day the Dr's told my DH and family that I was going to die is the same day my organ donor saved my life.

Not boring at all! Did you win anything??

Let's see...I was stranded in Antarctica for 3 days by a terrible storm...The only fun (not research) cruise I've ever been on, I got a parasite so rare that the CDC tracks it...I got pregnant, had a miscarriage with complications, had an emergency appendectomy and defended my PhD two days later, and ended my marriage (in that order) all within 6 months. Worst six months of my life.
Those are some of the most interesting things that have happened to my, but I don't think it's what makes me interesting.

[ijack]

I donated my eggs about 12 years ago.

[chittybangbang]

I ended my engagement six months before my wedding. I've also moved house 6 times in the last 7 years and owned 3 of those houses.

[countthestars]

I cheered in a NCAA championship game (uconn 04).

[flygirl22]

Hm.. I've been to Siberia twice in the dead of winter. That's all I've got.
