It's time again for "tell something no one on DU knows about you."

[Longgrain]

Just one thing you've never told before...

For me? I didn't have my driver's license until I was thirty. No big deal, but it was embarrassing.

Now what's your hidden secret?

[xmas74]

1. I didn't know the difference between the words

"lesbian" and "thespian" until I was almost 19.

[Longgrain]

3. ROFL

Beat's me.

When I was a kid, I thought "Gay" meant happy.

:D

[bridgit]

5. yeah, and being a 'crack' salesman was a good thing...

[xmas74]

8. No one talked about them around here.

In some minds in a small town the theater ties in perfectly w/ lesbians so I never knew. A friend in college was bisexual and she explained it to me (cracking up the whole time, of course).

I don't hink there's anything DU does know about me. I'll start here... I help DU's CPAN group post the daily schedule. Oh, and I had my cards read today.

[Droopy]

7. I was busted for criminal trespass in 1998

I don't want to go into the details, but there was a lot of beer and a hotel involved. The maximum penalty in the state I was in was 6 months in prison for a first time offender, but I got off with a $300 fine.

[Quakerfriend]

11. I weighed less than 2.5 lbs. when I was born in 1958

No problems. A true miracle baby in that day and age.

But, I do have "true fontanels" because of this!

[hippiechick]

15. I come from a long line of addictive/compulsive personalities ...

As far back on my dad's side as we can recollect, were alcoholics.
My siblings are:
a shopping addict,
a money-horder (think Scrooge),
a food-addict,
a chain smoker,
and one alcoholic.

Over the past 30 years, I've had fringe addictions to:
food
exercise
alcohol
and sex.

Now I am addicted to walking (back to exercise, I guess).
