Me in Ten Seconds

I check the comments and I saw this on a new commenter's,Kari, blog. It's a really cool blog so everyone check it out. It references Dogwood, the state tree of Virginia. Yeah, I know a lot of useless Virginia trivia. Like, the state dog of Virginia is the Foxhound. I don't remember if it's an English or an American though... Raleigh was named after Sir Walter Raleigh. Pocahontas was ten when she met John Smith. She married John Rolfe. Her English name was Rebecca Rolfe. She was an overweight child with an overbite.

Okay, so I had to wikipedia that she married John Rolfe, because I forgot his last name and I made up the last part about her being overweight as a child and I'm sure Native Americans had orthodontia well before vanilla faces (read: white people) did. I mean, they had lacrosse. Another interesting fact is Firefox doesn't recognize "Rebecca" as spelled correctly. I don't know any Rebeccas who spell her name as "Rebbecca." Now, I'm not entirely sure how I got on this point. Anyway, now I'm supposed to introduce myself in ten seconds. I suddenly believe I have introduced myself in more because this interesting facts about Virginia kind of describes me... easily distracted and full of useless information.

Okay. So me:

I'm a left-handed air force brat that has lived in Colorado Springs for a little over a decade. I used to speak French pretty well and sometimes I wonder if I will do what I really want to do in my life. I'm terrible at making plans for my future but I'm kind of a guru for all of my friends. I write, I love short stories but I write a lto of poetry, and I have a tattoo on my left arm that says, "i'll put you all in a story by and by." I like to eat frozen pizzas and I hate cleaning. Also, I play the autoharp and I played the piano for six or seven years.

There is me.
