Whoops!


Kristy tagged me for a Random Facts meme and I totally missed it for um, oh say, nearly a week. *sigh* In retrospect though, it could be because I got all distracted by yarn porn and talk of short rows. So, without further ado;

Robyn's Random facts.

1. I was born with a hole the size of a dime in my left hand. I have a lovely scar to this day that I use for distinguishing between right and left (sad but true) and debates about stigmata. Because of the hole, the middle finger of my left hand has little to no sensation which makes typing and piano playing interesting, but does not affect my knitting in any way.


2. I used to think that bus drivers, particularly public transit but also school bus, were crazy. Now, having done both, I know it's true.


3. I love to cook. I hate to clean. We would eat a lot better if fairies would be kind enough to swoop into my kitchen on a daily basis.


4. Mathboy and I met on the Internet. We were not plotting romance when we had our first face to face meeting, but he tells me that when he saw me at the airport that first time, he knew he'd marry me one day.


5. I loved the series "Firefly" and actually scheduled my wedding in such a way as to be able to watch the movie "Serenity" with the friend who introduced me to the television show. Also, I heart Adam Baldwin. (No, I'm not totally insane. It also had a lot to do with the fact that I wanted a candlelit ceremony and a long sleeved gown. Both were more easily accomplished in October.)


6. My cats are Hemingways or American Polydactyls and have extra toes on their front paws. They have all their claws and use their extra toes like opposable thumbs which can be very, very, bad. When we adopted them, their names were Jack (a black and white short hair) and Jill (tabby and white medium rabbit fur[she's so soft!]) which we thought was very unoriginal so we changed them to Otokonoko (Japanese for boy) and Otome (Japanese for girl). Noko and Ome for short, or, as my mother in law calls them "Ohno" and "Ohmy".


7. We have a fruit salad tree in our backyard. It's got Meyer Lemons, Honeybell Tangelos, Ruby Red Grapefruit, and Valencia, and Navel Oranges.

There will be no official tagging of people because all of the people I feel comfortable tagging have already done this. If you're reading though, and you haven't done it, consider yourself tagged! Leave me a comment so I can stalk you read it.

Kitty content!
