7 Totally random things about me.... hum....
1. I was kicked out of Grad School with only 1 semester lacking. I had been working toward my Ph.D. in entomology when I was bitten by a spider in the lab. Apparently, I was in the hospital too long for the school and I was sent a certified letter letting me know of my dismissal! Yeah, years later I am still reeling over that one.
2. I am a cancer survivor! In my mid-20's I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma.I had 6 months of chemo and 24 radiation treatments. The cure almost killed me but I have now been in remission for over 15 years!
3. I love the color purple. The hue love runs in my family. My Dad, brother, sister love it too. However, I would have to give the"Take it to the Extreme" award to my NaNa. She had a double purple door on her house. She was a little more (shall we say) eccentric than the rest of us.
4. I can't stand to hear anyone flick their fingernails! Don't know why, but there it is!
5. I love to travel. Until I started college, my mom and I moved every two years. I believe she fostered some gypsy blood in me. Always ready for a road trip...
6. NEVER NEVER NEVER thought I would start blogging!
7. I want a new camera. I am a shutter bug and have outgrown the point and shoot that I currently own!
