Thursday 13 – My first

Thirteen Things about Des 1. I’m a Capricorn - whether that really means anything is another story. 2. I’ve lived in the same state my whole life - that would be the state of CALIFORNIA not the state of stupidity or something. Although it’s possible that’s true too. 3. I’ve lived in only three cities in Cali – but we moved within those cities frequently. 4. I took French & German language classes in JR & High School – Ich liebe Herr Kirshner. 5. I’ve learned Spanish from watching Dora the Explorer – Cuidado. 6. My first car was a white 1983 Toyota Corolla - my Dad got GOLD rims for it. Tricked out! 7. It was a hand me down from my sister – I only got it because she was going away to school. 8. I wrecked it and could only afford to buy a 1976 Chevy Vega (in 1988) – it was burgundy with red interior – all of it – the seats, the carpet, the dashboard, and the headliner. The husband called it Mega Vega. 9. Broken my thumb playing softball as a kid - in the last game of the season just before we went to Allstars! 10. Went to Nice, France with my dance team during my sophmore year in HS – for Mardi Gras – we got to perform in the parade. They shouted out names at us & called us stoopid americahns, even then. 11. When the husband & I were in HK on business, I had a suit tailor made - there is nothing like having something made to fit only you, and not some general size. 12. At one point in my silly youth I wanted to have three children - HA! I’m so glad we didn’t do that. I can barely handle the two we have. 13. I really, really, really want to go on a Transatlantic cruise aboard the Cunard QM2 – rock it old school style & sans filles.
