1. I have dual nationality. I'm British / Canadian, but I've never been to Canada. -True. My paternal grandfather was in the Air Force and married my grandmother, who was in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force, in 1940. They went to Canada after the war and my third aunt and my dad were born there. My grandfather was an alcoholic (although that's not the word my grandmother used) so in 1949 she divorced him and came back to the UK - a brave thing to do with four kids at that time! My dad has never been back to Canada but he's also never had a British passport. When I was six I went through a citizenship ceremony and I have a certificate to prove I have Canadian nationality. I will get there one day!
2. I am allergic to plums. - Unusual, but true.
3. I have a pet snake. - I think snakes are cool, but this is false. We have cats.
1. I lived in Cambridge, England 2. Pam Anderson and Courtney Love touched my boobs...at the same time 3. H and I knew each other for 6 months before getting married
1. TRUE. i lived in Cambridge, England during a study abroad program in college. 2. TRUE. i used to design clothing for juicy couture (yes those hideous track suits) and we had a store opening party at a burlesque club in Vegas. i was sitting at a booth with Pam Anderson, Courtney Love, Anthony Kiedis and Charlie Hunnam. i was pretty wasted but i think Courtney Love said i have nice tits and then put her hands on them and then Pam followed. Wish Charlie had done the same! 3. FALSE H and i dated for 9 years before we got married
1. I wear glasses but have never worn contacts. 2. I have situs inversus (all of my organs are transposed and are on the opposite side of my body) 3. I have never had a broken bone.
1. True, I only started wearing glasses a few years ago. I wear them mostly at work while I'm on the computer, but have never worn contacts. 2. False, but my sister has it. It's genetic but she is the only one in my immediate family who has it (that we know of). 3. True, I've never broken anything, I've dislocated my shoulder a ton of times.
1. My husband and I both dress up like Vikings in our spare time. We are major nerds and do medieval reinactment through the SCA.
2. I've never felt a contraction is true. I had T via c-section 5 weeks early. I wasn't dilated, effaced, or anything. I didn't even have any tiny contractions when they were monitoring me.
Fun game! I'm mobile so not even going to try to guess now, but here's mine: 1) I'm allergic to dogs, which is why I have a hypo-allergenic one 2) I met DH on match.com 3) I spent a summer studying Shakespeare at Oxford university
#1 is my lie - I'm not allergic to dogs. I got a Bichon purely because we had one growing up, they're a great breed, and do not want to deal with dog hair. MH was actually the first person I really communicated with when I decided to sign up for match - so I was a member for like, a month, but it worked. My college had a summer program where you could take your Shakespeare requirement (English major) at Oxford. It was pretty amazing.
1. I lived in Vancouver for two years 2. I am OCD about cleaning 3. I would ideally have four children
1. True, I moved there at 18 and it was the most fun experience. I worked at a music store and met such awesome people. It was a perfect no-responsibility / party time stage before I went to nursing school.
2. False, I don't HATE to clean as much as it's never, ever done. I feel like I'm never organized enough and the kids are constantly bringing piles of paper home from school. My New Years resolution has been to be more organized for at least 5 years.
3. True, if we won the lottery I would probably go for one more. I sometimes guilt that we waited too long to decide on #3, and now there's this big age gap between them. That being said, I don't know how I would've handled having three close together either. The older ones are really such great helpers and so patient.
I'm not following directions here, but it was a pain just going back through everyone's updates. The new posts were easier so I'm following suit. 1. I used a pacifier until I was 5 - false. I've never seen any pictures of myself with a paci. My mom said she took it away really early. 2. The Office is my all-time favorite show - true. I love that I can half pay attention and it's still funny. I quote it all day everyday and sometimes people get it. 3. I was hospitalized on vacation to the Grand Canyon - true. Weirdest summer ever with recurrent hives. It peaked on vacation and I couldn't breathe so I was hospitalized for four days trying to get it all under control.
