Re: Post something random about yourself that you've never posted before

I think I have posted a LOT about me and may have posted this before, but here goes(sorry so long):

Many years ago, after coming out of a very long term relationship that ended badly my girlfriends asked me to come with them on a 10 day trip to Greece they had already planned.. and they only asked me 2 days in advance. I was not the spontaneous type normally but I threw caution to the wind and went for it

Aside from it being THE BEST vacation I ever took, while in Greece I developed this strong affection for the people and the country.. I literally felt at 'home' there.

For whatever reason, the locals thought I WAS GREEK and would come up to me and speak Greek and would not believe it when I said that I was ITALIAN, not Greek Literally this happend at least 5x a day!

But the absolute best/ironic moment was when a little old Greek lady who worked in a cafe where we stopped to eat in Athens sat down with me and in broken English (after realizing I was NOT Greek) proceeded to tell me that "I was DEFINITELY going to "be Greek" in essence, because I was going to marry a Greek man someday.. and that my husband's name was going to be Anthony or Peter"

.. now me, being newly single and down on ALL men, laughed and laughed and humored this cute lady but never believed it for one second!

Well it took about 9 years but I finally did meet my Greek husband and yes his name is Anthony (and what's even funnier is that his brother's name is Peter )

Re: Post something random about yourself that you've never posted before

once when i was little me and my dad were goofing around...... and i still cant even believe he did this.....
anywya, so he was joking he was gonna dunk my hair in the toilet bowl... and i didnt believe him so i kept on being annoying ....
anyway, he kept to it.... he held me upside down in the toilet.... (just my hair, not head) but the lights werent on.....
when he pulled me out we saw that someone had peed and didnt flush!!! EWW! there was TP in my hair.
i cried and took a shower. but everyone else thought it was hilarious.

i guess that story is alittle disturbing now.

Re: Post something random about yourself that you've never posted before

In third grade, I was sitting at the coffee table in the living room writing out the invitations to my birthday party with my brothers, sister and mother all around. Well, I had to sneeze... hard. So I did, and whacked my head against the coffee table so hard that I knocked myself out

Re: Post something random about yourself that you've never posted before

here's another one for me. I dated 3 guys named Adam within 2 years. My family used to refer to them as Adam #1, #2, and #3. After that, I dated an Ari. Finally, when I moved onto the Bs and dated Brad, I was set!

Re: Post something random about yourself that you've never posted before

I burnt myself with hot tea (all over my stomach) when I was younger and my grandmother tried to hide it from my parents. (this was while I stayed with my grandparents in Florida for the summer) When they came to pick me up in August I lifted my shirt and said...look at this!! My grandmother was mortified!

Re: Post something random about yourself that you've never posted before
