Thanks for all your guesses!

[melcreada]

1. I once got out of a traffic ticket by dating the police officer.

TRUE. He pulled me over for speeding, we started talking, and then he asked for my number. We dated for about 2 months. Even though he was kinda cute, he was waaay too old for me.

2. I still have baby teeth in my mouth.

TRUE. I have four baby molars that never fell out because I had no adult teeth behind them. The dentist thinks I will keep them for most of my life.

3. I made out with the lead singer of C + C Music Factory.

FALSE. But I did kiss the lead singer of their opening act, Rhythm Syndicate. He spotted me and gave my friends passes to see their act in Austin with the agreement that they bring me. Yeah, my buddies pimped me out. Also, this was a looong time ago. I sure wouldn't get that kind of attention now! LOL...

4. I was so mean to my roommate that I made her cry AND move out on the same day.

TRUE. Not one of my better moments. We were joking one minute and fighting the next. As soon as she started saying stuff about my boyfriend and my family, the gloves came off. I demolished her. I still regret everything I said.

5. I have been "the other woman" in 3 relationships.

TRUE. Although, in my defense, in one situation I didn't know I was the "other woman." In another, we were actually just friends "with a history," but the rumor was industriously spread by everyone, including the guy. The final one? I have no excuse. We wound up having a most painful break-up, as he was a repeat offender. But I learned. Oh, how I learned.

6. I have spent $2K on an anime cel.

TRUE. But can you guess which one? LOL...Arwen and Julie, no telling!!!

7. I have to constantly remind myself to tell the truth because lying is very second nature.

TRUE. I can be quite the bullshit artist. Maybe it's because I hate confrontation. Maybe it is my perennial role as Peacemaker in my family. Maybe it's all my years as a supervisor...but it is often very easy for me to lie. I try really, really hard to be truthful, especially because JP ALWAYS knows when I am bs-ing....

8. I think escargot are nasty.

FALSE. Food of the gods! Mmmm...butter and snails.

9. I have tried to kill myself.

TRUE. I actually did try and, thank God, I failed.

10. I once stole a book from Walmart.

FALSE. Have never stolen anything from a store, but I have been known to help myself to the book giveaway at the library without making a donation. ;_;

Well, that's all. I hope you won't think too harshly of me. I can't say I am proud of some of this stuff, but if somehow it made me a better person, well then maybe it wasn't all for nothing. To use a double negative...

I could never think of your harshly! Wow one day I'm going to sit you down and make you tell me about some of these things ^_~

Catching up on LJ...glad you got the box! I'm so sorry it took forever to get to you ^^;

*hugs you*

I would gladly unburden myself, although a lot of it is not admirable.

Wow what an interesting life.

I have spent $2K on an anime cel
Violin :O~~~~~~~~~ ?

Rather misguided...but that's okay. You would never know it to look at me, though! LOL!

And correct about the cel!

Studio Ghibli owns me! <3

I hope you won't think too harshly of me

No way, life experiences show character. ^^ Actually my lil brother is missing 12 adult teeth, he'll have to get tons of implants. -_- Oh, and no more of #9 ya hear!! *bash bash*

Yikes! I am lucky...my dentist always tests my teeth and says, worst case scenario, I would have two bridges put in. Eep. Hang in there, baby teeth!

And I promise, no number 9 EVER. *huggles you tight*

Who would ever think of you harshly? No way--you just have flair! Even the mistakes help shape who we are today...and you are a really interesting person with a v. intriguing personality!

I'm glad #9 didn't work. I (and many others!) would have been very sad if you weren't around.

...And I need to try that getting-out-of-tickets tactic. Nothing so far has worked.

Thank you! I judge myself harshly and when contemplating some of this stuff, I cringe.

Hee, I suggest crying. Seriously. I was bawling because I had just broken up with my boyfriend when he pulled me over. I guess snot can look good on a girl? LOL...

*HUGS*
