Might as well not waste this only on Facebook! \ud83d\ude00<\/b> <\/p>\n
1. Europe (Belgium, Germany, Sweden) has been my home for 18 years of my life and I suspect I’m here to stay. I’ve moved 29 times over the years and have lived the longest in this current house: 6.5 years.<\/p>\n
2. Despite having been eligible for the past 7 years, I still haven’t gotten around to applying for Swedish citizenship.<\/p>\n
3. I refused to try sushi until I met Anders when I was 30 years old\u2014now I can’t get enough.<\/p>\n
4. I have never bleached, tweezed, tattooed, pierced or waxed anything.<\/p>\n
5. I don’t mind doing memes (usually in your own comments!), especially listy ones but I rarely tag anyone, and I despise blog quizzes.<\/p>\n
6. I’ve been journaling online since 2003 and have designed the book formats for each year and had them bound and printed in paperback.<\/p>\n
7. Time travel and reincarnation really appeal to me, in theory.<\/p>\n
8. I miss my mom a lot and wish we lived in the same country, at least.<\/p>\n
9. Puns are a weakness of mine. This will not surprise some of you.<\/p>\n
10. Sometimes I think I should have done something with that college Art degree I almost got…and then I realize that I DID, which makes me smile.<\/p>\n
11. I swear like a sailor, even in front of my children.<\/p>\n
12. My impatience drives my husband crazy sometimes.<\/p>\n
13. The first music concert I ever went to was Foreigner. The second was Rush. The last was Peps Persson. None of these really reflect my true musical tastes.<\/p>\n
14. I love love love my job.<\/p>\n
15. It both dismays and amuses me when I can’t think of words in English nowadays.<\/p>\n
16. There are 2 fairly major skeletons in my closet, that only a couple of people know about. One can’t reveal everything, right? \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n
17. Last year, I read 139.5 books.<\/p>\n
18. Singing in a choir is one of my weekly activities; I’m a contralto.<\/p>\n
19. When I make lists like this, I make a conscious effort not to start every sentence with “I”, often going back and editing to avoid it.<\/p>\n
20. Common things I do extremely rarely: watch TV, sew, swim, use the oven, drink milk<\/p>\n
21. As a rule, I don’t drink alcohol and I’ve never been drunk in my life.<\/p>\n
22. One of the things I like best about my current lifestyle is the fact that I never have to wear either pantyhose or high heels anymore.<\/p>\n
23. The first thing I do when I get home from work each day is walk through the house and pick things up and put things away that are out of place. I make the kids do it, too.<\/p>\n
24. I truly can’t fathom why anyone would smoke cigarettes or use chewing tobacco. Ick.<\/p>\n
25. It is my firm belief that religious and political opinions are nobody’s business but their own and that people should keep them to themselves. If people actually did so, the world would be a much better and more peaceful place. Since they don’t, however, I’m all for rational discussion and open-mindedness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
