Ouch! I’ve Been Tagged

OK. Maybe it doesn’t hurt too much, Susan and Sally. I know the rules say I’m to tag 8 people but I’m a naughty little non-conformist so I hope all will be forgiven if I only tag 4 of my friends. Honestly, I can’t remember who has already answered this meme. I choose to blame the pharmaceuticals.

Rules:

1. Each player starts with 8 random facts about themselves.

2. People who are tagged write a blog post about their 8 random things and post the rules.

3. At the end of your post you need to tag 8 people and post their names.

4. Don’t forget to leave them a comment and tell them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

Random facts about La Cabeza Grande:

1. I can say “Thank you” in at least 10 languages.

2. I won the Best Actress award in a citywide theater festival at age 15.

3. I was pre-med through my junior year but decided that life in the lab was not for me. I got a math degree instead.

4. I’ve interviewed a number of celebrities including Danny Glover, Bruce Willis and Michael J. Fox.

5. I jumped over one of the bridges along the Chicago River as it was going up. I didn’t want to miss my train at Union Station and the bus was taking too long.

6. I was at Jeffrey Dahmer’s trial and sat right in front of his parents. Once the 17 guilty verdicts were read, I went on the air with live reports for CBS News.

7. Once upon a time, I had a mohawk. I’d just quit my job and was getting ready to take off for Europe for the summer.

8. I didn’t have my first legal drink until after I’d graduated college.

Tammy, Pattie, JZ and Jess? Consider yourself tagged. Anyone else who wants to play along should feel free to do so.

Cheers!

  • It is official – you are now one of the most interesting people I think I have ever e-met! Have a great weekend, and if not, enjoy some pharmaceutical bliss… But seriously, I hope that you are well. Happy knitting.

  • You’ve done some pretty awesome stuff! I’ve THOUGHT about jumping over one of those bridges on the Chicago R., but never had the cojones to do it.

  • Very interesting things and a fun read about you! Dahmer thing, very creepy though. That’s some awesome stuff you have done! Very nice!
    I have acted/modeled and mingled with a few actors ect. It helped that I lived near Rockerfeller center in NYC way back when though. I bet you have a lot of great stories in you.

  • Ok how come I don’t know ANY of these??? 🙂

  • I was only pre-med for 1 semester and then I quit. The Jeffrey Dahmer trial must have been freaky!

  • What an amazing life you’ve led!

  • Fascinating! My facts were so blah and I tried as hard as I could! Thanks for being a good sport!
