Being relatively new here...glances at calender (can it have been 3 weeks already?!?!).

Anyway, I thought it would be fun to learn more about you all. Just throw out a list of random facts about yourself. They can be funny, serious, or even ridiculous, just as long as they're true.

So what don't we know about you?

1. I like ice skating and rollerblading.
2. I hated peas so much when I was younger that I fed them to the dog while Mom wasn't looking. (The Lima Beans went into the radiator.)
3. I can see Pikes Peak out of my Living Room window.
4. I never considered writing a book until I was 17.
5. I've never been pulled over by a police officer.
6. I detest spiders.

My own driving incident was somewhat similar, except that my dad had me drive through a gate that was barely wide enough to squeeze the suburban through with the rearview mirrors folded in. I left several scratches on the side of the car that looked like my initial: Z. I'm not kidding. :x

I guess that was a random fact, huh?

I love that feeling!!! Another random fact.

I did as well, until I started writing books...or maybe I just started growing up. Now I think it's kinda fun to sneak around in the dark, provided the lights in the house are off. They must be off, and the simple reason is that if you're in the dark, anyone who may be prowling around can't see you any more than you can see them. :D
