Ten Things Most People Don't Know About Me

1. My first crush was on Eric Faulkner from the Bay City Rollers.
2. I want to see a ghost.
3. I love puzzles: math equations, logic problems, jigsaws. I love to use the old brain.
4. I don't believe in gods. I've tried to believe and wished I could, but I don't. I'm not an atheist, though, more of an agnostic, I guess.
5. I have a hard time connecting with people, especially women.
6. I can't stand the smell of rum (drinking game gone bad in college — I suck at quarters).
7. I have an extremely low tolerance for rudeness and stupidity.
8. I'm a night owl. I really hate trying to fit into a "normal" routine.
9. I have a lot of disturbing, reoccurring dreams.
10. I'm 40 and still don't know what I want to do with my life.
