Introduce yourself!

Oooh Ooooh pick me pick me!
Okay I will go first.

I am a silly cheekyredhead that loves to write. I appreciate humor, wit and listening to opinions--then forming my own. Want to borrow some?

I can touch the tip of my nose with my tongue. I danced on Soul Train for one season WAY back when...and I am still just as hot as I was then. I just don't do so well on 5 inch heels anymore.

To whom are you referring to about needing to open up, or is this just a general tell all post? LOL. I can touch my nose with my tongue to.

Hmmmm...lets see.

My tongue is not long and it does not curl. I too am a redhead, but definately not cheeky.

Creating this "place" for random little bits of trivia which do not define us, but make us the individuals that we are...as if we are the sum of all our parts and most of them we keep to ourselves.

My intent is to allow a place to boast, a place to be opinionated, or just a place to go be silly. Clever banter is something we are all gifted with...but do we ever hold back...thinking...that you'd risk something by being honest?

I am proud that I can touch my nose with my tongue...it is a talented part of me but something probably my husband only appreciates.

Last week we went to a party and we were all given a small note to write something down--that nobody at the party would guess about us. I watched people come in--there were those that seemed stumped and suffered writers block---but I wanted more little notes to write on. One was simply not enough. Which gave me this idea---so this is an opportunity to just let those little gems fly free!

I am pretty sure that nobody here has your address. I am pretty sure they don't even know your real name. This is freedom!

With that said---I will freely admitt that I am considered a "switch"...and only those that are familiar with that term will know my big secret--the rest will be scratching their heads.

I am smiling that secret knowing smile....like the cat that ate the canary.

A switch? My curiousity is piqued.

well...let's see...here were some of the surprising things that people had written on thier notes at that party...it is interesting to see how people interpreted them.

"I did hard time for 5 years"........everyone thought this person had been in prison, and picked out the most gangster looking person in the room....the reality was that this person worked for the prision system for 5 years. That embarrassed a few people and I am pretty sure the wrong guy picked was a bit pissed that people thought HE could have been in prison.

Mine was "I had dinner in THE White House"....everyone was shocked. Apparently I do not "appear" to be the typical "political" type. I will admit that I was there as "Arm candy"....but the Oscar de Laurenta dress and the experience of being there that evening is something I will never forget.

Like I said...we ALL have little things we are secretly impressed with ourselves about...so why not share them. It means we are interesting. You are all interesting!

I bet lazybones has something to say...and we will be surprised. That is the point.

I went camping with Stephen King and his wife, they were in the same campground in Michigan. I roasted marshmellows with him and talked to him like he was a God, lol and he was VERY nice. His wife on the other hand was not.

Monique Marie...that is SO COOL!

That is very, very cool Monique.

My brush with fame is so pitiful. I once waited on Carl Eller. Carl Eller is an old Vikings football player. He left me a $20 tip.

I have never met anyone famous. I don't think that was Cheeky's thing here.

Me---I like to keep people guessing as much as Cheeky. That is what is so fun, right Cheeky?

What can I say about myself? I am far too much for such a tiny space.

I guess there are two things, I will answer any question to the best of my ability about me if someone wants to know and I own Bruce Willis's music album and I am not ashamed to play it or admit it, LOL

Ahhh... now we know who bought that album.

Musical Confessions: I bought the rock album Garth Brookes made under an alias/another name when he also made a movie about a rock star. I absolutely love it but can barely tolerate the "real" Garth Brookes records. I guy I dated once bought me a Yanni CD which I use as a coaster on my bedside table. The was the only use I could come with for it. Yanni sucks. I also have Robert Downey Jr's album---and it is actually pretty good.

Somehow I cannot imagine "whimseybuttons" listening to Garth Brookes even if he was marading as a rock star. Yanni CD as a coaster is extremely funny. Someone should market them just for that purpose.

i love to sing...i am not so fond of taking pictures of myself...my mobile phone is full of robert pattinson photos...and twilight themes...i have bellas lullaby too...i love to read...i have read twilight saga 5 times or even more...i lose count...i love to read...i can stay at the wee hours of the night reading....once i was riding a bus and the guy beside me taught i was insane because i was laughing while reading CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET...

i love witchcraft...ive tried some spells before..not for myself but for my friends...they actually asked me to make one for them...i just dont know if it really worked...

i actually have sixth sense...i know people would think that i am wierd...or wont even believe me...it doesnt matter...i believe certain dimension exists.....

Hey Whimsey, I would love to know the name of the pseudo Garth Brooks album. It just sounds like one of those albums a person needs to have just because.

Crazywitch, dimensions other than the one we see definately exist.

lazybones101, thank you....some people really think that sounds crazy to believe in it...it feels great to have known someone like you is on my side...

I have always instinctively known how most people feel and I think that helped me with my patients. I have learned to listen to those little hints I get.

Ever since I was little I have just "known" when someone was going to die. My Grandma was a nurse and sometimes my Mom would drop me off an our before her shift was over and I would help feed patients or read to them. I remember one night on the way home I told my Grandma that "Mrs. Dean would not be there tomorrow." She looked at me weird and asked me if I had ever felt that way before. Mrs Dean died during the night. My Grandma and I both had this weird "thing" I hesitate to say "gift" because it just isn't a fun thing to have.

Dead people wake me up sometimes. I get the feeling they are lost. I just tell them to go home and then they leave. I don't tell many people about this because they act differently round me after that.

Here are three things:

1) I dated Joey Heatherton (before she became famous)
2) I beat Johnny Cash to the draw, one night in a bar in Greenwich Village, in NY.
3)I hung around with the Hells Angels for a while,and still have friend active with the HA in NYC.

Joey Heatherton's claim to fame was she was the "merry mailman"'s daughter at the time.

I had to give up riding when i retired.

WOW---you are a very cool grandpa!

Here is the ONLY Garth Brookes album I own. I am telling you that he looks HOT as the fictious "Chris Gaines" and I saw him do his skit on SNL where he did both characters at once and it was freaking hilarious! But hey-the album got crappy reviews BUT I love it. The last time he "claimed" he was going to retire I secretly hoped he'd resurface as Chris Gaines. (cuz Chris is a hottie and Garth annoys the heck outta me) I don't think the movie was ever released/made that this album was made for.

Dang! I had no idea Garth could be so hot. Perhaps I need to re-think my opinion of men wearing rugs. Nope. I'd rather see a naked head.

I have always wished I had a recording of Sean Connery saying my name over and over. His voice and natural accent drives me over the edge. Pity it will never happen. I think if he whispered in my ear that my husband had better have an arm clasped to me firmly...not sure what would happen. Sort of afraid to think about it.

Cheeky is wondering........if Grandpa has an accent. Oooh...Chills.

Sean Connery does nothing for me. Guess it is hearing about his treatment of women.

Awww man! Lazybones just ruined a perfectly good fantasy I have had for years. Darn. Maybe Denzel Washington....hmmm....that might work. He has a sexy voice too.

I agree with you regarding Denzel. He has a fabulous voice.

Gee,I wonder why Stephen King's wife was like that??

I am guessing because she was there on vacation and did not want to be bothered.

Probably right! I have read all of his books,she is an author too. was it before or after he was hit by the car?He said that he had quite a writers block afterward. I was once on a plane with George Michael but he had security all around him. I did not know until my friend poked me.

Hey-RubyDreams--I've seen that cat before in my pet-a-bles photo gallery! That cat gets around man.

Have you guys noticed my "pet shoes" on my profile page?

I thought it was funny !Have to check out your pet shoes!

Where did you find those crazy shoes, cheeky?

You know...the internet...you can find some pretty bizarre things there. I made a couple photo group thingies on my main page--found some really hilarious photos of photo-shopped celeb's...check it out.

I should probably figure how to to that "make a list" thingie like Monique Marie uses but my time is limited. Back to school for me!

Dang girl...I love those "laying down" pumps! Very cool.

Yes...I have a firm belief that there is an "appropriate" she for every occasion.

Love the "appropriate" SHE for every occasion...I know it was a typo but love it none-the-less

Hey...I don't think I have ever been complimented as someone corrected my typo---pretty classy! That is cool. Some people take every opportunity to rip you a new one when you make a mistake. You managed to "take advantage" of me in a cute way!
