100 Facts About Me Contest -- Week 3


This is yet another installment of the 100 Facts about me and third week of the t-shirt contest. Frankly, I can't give the t-shirt away. I must be a very good liar. Nobody guessed the correct fact that was a lie last week.

Each week (until the list totals 100) I post 11 items, 10 of which are true and one that is not. If you can guess which fact is not true, you can win a Running With Blue Sponge t-shirt. If more than one person guesses correctly (which would be a miracle), there will be a random drawing for the winner.

Next Monday, I'll post 10 more facts and one non-fact next and disclose which one of the items from this week was false. Each person may only make one guess. Leave a comment or send an email to runningwithbluesponge@gmail.com.

The false item from last week was #8. I never shaved my head because of a co-worker undergoing chemotherapy. I totally would do that, if the situation called for it, but I haven't. The other 10 items I listed were true.

Here's the sixth list of 10 facts and one non-fact:

1. My little finger on my right hand is shorter than my other pinky, and it has hair growing on the palm side (feel free to throw up).

2. I met Shane online.

3. I had the mumps.

4. I've sold seeds door-to-door.

5. As a child, I jumped off the roof of my house holding a bed sheet as a parachute.

6. I have college credit in Bowling.

7. A former babysitter of mine got a bit of a crush on me when I became of age, but while I was still living at home with my mother. She threw pebbles at my bedroom window so I'd meet her in the backyard late one night. It didn't really work out for her.

8. Shane and I have traveled to the Union of Myanmar (Burma).

9. While in elementary school, I had to go to a speech therapist to help correct my lisp.

10. I've taught a class in candlemaking.

11. I bite my nails.
