Robert tagged me, then untagged me, but I’m still game. Here are five things most people don’t know about me.
1. I have a freckle patch. Aside from a few strategically placed freckles, all my freckles congregate on the inside of my right arm.
2. I used to pack parachutes at the Gimli airfield. I packed parachutes in exchange for free jumps. I was on pins and needles one day watching my friend spiral down. I was standing next to his mother assuring her that the parachute did sometimes take that long to deploy. It was a chute I packed. Fortune was on our side and he landed safely. The problem was not the chute. He panicked and instead of falling in a spread eagle shape, he curled into a ball. The chute deployed but the canopy when between his legs and he was caught up in it. Again, thankfully good fortune was on our side. He only suffered the embarassment of peeing his pants.
3. I designed the logo for the Beautiful Plains School Division. I don’t have a bigger image. It’s a book with three sized people on the right–representing teachers, high school and elementary school kids. I was 16 or 17 when I designed it.
4. I have $300 tap shoes. (They make me go faster.)
5. I’m learning to knit and play video games. Both are equally enjoyable and stressful.
