Seven Things About Me You May Not Know
Jeff Herz just tagged me.
I'm it. And I must supply the following information, which will hopefully enlighten my readers a little further about me.
1) I have been on both academic probation and elected to two honor societies. That's correct. I attended Ithaca College for three years. During my time there, I was anything but a student, and my grades certainly reflected it. However, after transferring to Mercy College in Dobbs Ferry, NY, my focus changed. I graduated Summa Cum Laude and was awarded membership to Alpha Chi and Pi Gamma Mu.
2) I have a Connecticut boating license. That is right. I can legally operate watercraft. This would make sense, considering I had spent a good six consecutive summers on Long Island Sound with my father on his boat as a teenager, as well as numerous times fishing or tooling around before or since. I have been seasick once. It sucks.
3) Liver makes me gag. Beyond that I will try just about anything and usually enjoy it. As a foodie, one most always experiment. Even if it means eating jellyfish at a Chinese restaurant in Montreal. Which I have done.
4) I voted for George W. Bush in November, 2000. There. I said it. Shame on me, I know. But I'm wiser now.
5) There was a time, however brief, that I actually considered the priesthood. I was twelve or thirteen and was enamored with the mysteries of God and the Church. I even pretended to have mass in my bedroom. Then I discovered girls.
6) My wife was the first girlfriend I dated longer than seven months. I had a history of intense three-month relationships. Before Claudia, I didn't think I had it in me to be in a relationship for very long. I thought it was a character flaw. Now I know better.
7) My only regret in life is that I hurt people along the way who didn't deserve it. Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing.
So with that, I'm tagging Keith and Joe.
