Fishy, I love you, but you're going to have to wait for reports from the GTG/NYE Knotties.

Me, too! But please tell me you do not write with a "claw". That annoys me to no end.

Me too, on both counts. Are you totally left handed (like me) or just writing left handed? I can't even brush my teeth with my right hand I'm so bad.

The claw is the worst. I do, however, tend to turn a page nearly verticle before I write. No claw but it's a bad habit I started in high school and now I can't kick it at all.

Oh really Stacks?  I had no idea.  Was it scary?  What was that experience like?  Also, do you have a pregnant photo of you?  I think you were probably pretty cute.

As long as you're not dragging your hand through the ink, it's cool. I do everything left handed except use scissors. I never figured those left handed scissors out in grade school and just always did it with my right hand.

1. I have asthma. I have to take 3 meds a day to breathe. If I skip a day.. I have an attack.  So I bottles of pills and inhalers in every purse and in my suitcase so I dont forget them.  Its always fun to see the looks people give you when you pull out your inhaler lol

2.  I went to nashville a few years back and recorded an album. It was the best week of my life. 

3.  I was engaged once.. but when he cheated on me with a stripper.. I decided to call it off.

4.  I am constantly told I don't talk like I am from here. I guess my southern accent can't be denied.

5.  I love my dog. I sometimes would rather stay at home and cuddle with him than go out.

I'm left handed too!  It's supposedly so uncommon, but at work 8 out of 10 of us in the department are lefties.

you mean, like the way doctors write? no way. I push the pen across the paper instead of pull, which sounds weird, but I'm pretty sure that most claw-people try to pull it the way right-handed people do.

FutureMrsTR

My H is left handed, but any sport involving swinging something (baseball, golf, hockey) he does right handed because that's how his dad taught him.  He bowls left handed, though.  It's weird.

I think we are slowly taking over the world. I know a lot of left handed people as well.

I do most things left-handed, but when I threw the shotput in high school (SEXY) or serve a volleyball or bowl or box, I do it right-handed.

Right handed scissors confuse me to no end. I end up making an indent into whatever I'm cutting but it never, ever makes even the smallest slice through. I hate them.

jessienjeremy

Stella-- I am afraid of fish too! My FI thinks I am weird. Good to know someone else has that fear.

I had a beta and I scooped it up with a dust pan cause it jumped out of the bowl. I was crying cause I didn't want to touch it

Bubbalub

Stacks, was the extra finger next to Jocelyn's pinkie? I don't know why that matters to me, I'm just curious.

I have all dominant traits. In biology class in high school we did this "wheel" test of dominant traits. You started at the inside of the wheel and worked your way to the outside following the path of dominant or recessive traits to a number at the end. My number was 1. My teacher had never seen that before in a student. The traits they followed were:

brown hair
brown eyes
ability to roll the tongue
hair on the knuckles
separated earlobes
no hitchhiker's thumb

and probably a couple others I don't remember.

Generally speaking lefties are artistic.  I learned that somewhere.  And then when I went to hair school I noticed that every second person was a lefty.  I had never seen a ratio like that in my life.

laladypoet

we're in danger, people.  2,500 left-handed people die each year directly as a result of using products designed for right-handed folk.

I think I have all that stuff too! Except I can't decide if I have hitchhiker's thumb or not. I am in the middle or something.

The surgery part was pretty scary.  She was only 2 months old and had to be put to sleep.  I found out about the finger thing when I was like 7 months pregnant.  Trevor's mom said, "oh by the way, Trevor told you Jocelyn will probably have 6 fingers right?".  I was confused b/c I had never heard of that being so common before.  Jocelyn's 6th finger had bones in it which is why they had to do surgery.  Otherwise, they typically just tie them off and they die and fall off on their own.  To be quite honest, I think I'd probably be totally grossed out watching a finger die and fall off - so it was probably for the best with her having surgery.

She has a scar on each hand on the outside of her hand just below the bottom of her pinky finger.  She only just noticed the scars this week and it was the first time we ever talked about it. 

I actually don't have any pregnancy pictures at work, but I think I was a super duper ugly pregnant person.  I was swollen so bad from like month 5 on......I hated it.  Pregnancy to me is the worst experience ever.

what's weird about me is that when I was a baby, I used my right hand mostly to reach for things or hold things. then my right eye went bad and I switched. so I don' t know if I'm a "true" lefty.

I believe that's because the left side of the body is controlled by the right side of the brain, which is the artistic side, the left side being the logical side.

I'm relatively ambidexterous.

Jocelyn is left handed.  And 4 of my 5 BM's were left handed.

1. I hate peas, mushrooms, and olives.

2. Joey Fatone from N'Sync came to one of my soccer games.  When he was popular.

3. I have broken all 10 toes at different points of my life playing soccer.

4. The doctors told my parents they were having another boy when they were pregnant with me.  They were surprised in the delivery room.

5. I am dreading visiting H's family when I'm home because I don't have him there with me as a buffer.
