Five Random Facts About Me:

  1. I am an INFJ. I took two separate Meyers-Briggs inventories, 10 years apart, and they both had the same end result.
  2. I was absolutely terrified of down escalators as a child, going so far as to refuse to get on one without holding someone's hand, since I was absolutely convinced I was going to go tumbling down it head-first. I finally got over it when I found myself on a trip to Niagara with the Girl Scouts, and was faced with going down an escalator in a mall there. Since I couldn't exactly ask one of the other girls to hold my hand, I took a deep breath, closed my eyes, and somehow managed to get on the escalator without killing myself or bursting into tears. I was 11.
  3. I have a bizarre knack for remembering schedules, appointments, meetings, etc. Anything that gets marked on a calendar. I've wound up doubling as some sort of administrative assistant for every guy I've ever gone out with, since I usually know when they're supposed to be someplace or do something even if they don't. I may not be able to tell you what I had for breakfast this morning, but I can give you my schedule for the next 6 months off the top of my head without a problem.
  4. I've been to Space Camp twice - once during Spring Break in 6th grade, and once over Winter Break my senior year of high school. It still totally kills me that I'm too short to be a pilot (the height requirement is 5'4"... I'm 5'3"), even though I now realize I'm probably horribly suited to it given my complete inability to visualize things in 3 dimensions.
  5. The longest I've gone without moving since graduating from college is 18 months. Yes, I've been moving every year (on average) for the past 6 1/2 years. Yes, I'm really good at it now, and, yes, the thought of ever moving again makes me want to dig my eyes out with a spoon. I claim that I'm going to stay in my current apartment until I'm ready to buy something, but I also know that the odds of that actually happening are probably pretty slim.

I would have killed to go to space camp.

And became a submariner only 'cause my eyes were to bad to fly. But strangely, they're not bad enough to let me get lazer eye surgery.
