10 Things Meme

Lizarded from [livejournal.com profile] shirei_shibolim, [livejournal.com profile] nuqotw, [livejournal.com profile] fleurdelis28, And [livejournal.com profile] sovay...
10 Strange, unusual and/or improbable things I've done:

1. Given myself a dimple by running into my nextdoor neighbors coffee table corner, circa age 1.
2. Directly requested to be put in Hebrew school, and caused my family to join a synagogue.
3. Been mistaken for a teacher while still in middle school by the simple method of wearing a long jean skirt and a blouse.
4. Been offered a job before I was legally allowed to be employed- and they found a way for me to take it, or a variant thereof too.
5. Chosen a college to attend partially based on the fact that I got along with members both of the Orthodox and the GLBTQ communities while visiting.
6. Been taken to a supermarket as a tourist attraction.
7. Been entirely too familiar with the land-based public transit systems for much of the North East.
8. Debated with myself if it was ethically alright to fake not knowing an answer in a geography bee so I wouldn't have to go to the next round. I decided it wasn't.
9. Felt uncomfortably under-loaded because I wasn't carrying trombone, backpack, gig bag, and either purse or fanny pack.
10. Been told my a doctor that I can't be dehydrated, but I am anyways.

Hope that lived up to expectations. If not, well- better answers may come to me later. Probably on the plane (eep, I'm flying somewhere. Tomorrow. For a Kallah- what? Me??) to Toronto.

Ohhhh - I thought you meant *you* were the tourist attraction and that you were taken to the grocery market to be shown off. It made perfect sense to me.

I've taken all of my family members to Whole Foods/Fresh Fields and attempted to turn them into fellow addicts.

P.S. Who is the kallah? Mazel tov!

Err- other sort of Kallah- the KOACH Kallah: aka some odd mix of shabbaton and lecture series.

That's exactly what I thought, though I couldn't imagine why Maya would be a tourist attraction.
