1. I have horrendous sleeping habits. I tend to wake around 4 am and I putter around the house or read until about 6... then I go back to sleep for an hour.
2. I used to have a list of unsuitable men to date (my boss, my teacher, etc...)with the idea that I should, at some point, date each type.
3. I hate to leave the house. If I had my way, none of my family would... I take on a myriad of responsibility to be certain that I am forced to get out and interact with real people on a daily basis.
4. I have had open heart surgery. In 2003 I had my aortic valve replaced (I now tick like a Swatch-watch) and an aneurysm removed.
5. Last summer I taught my 9 year old to make a perfect Cuba Libre... also, a vodka tonic.
6. In college I worked as a Life Studies Model. Hey! It paid $50 for 45 minutes of work and I was aware that really, at 20, your body is about as good as it is going to be so why not stand around naked while people draw you?
* Bonus Info: I have a tattoo and here is the recipe for Balboa Jack's chicken salad:
boneless skinless chicken breasts (free range is yummiest)
cajun seasoning (I use Paul Prudhomme)
black pepper
celery (chopped)
scallions (chopped)
golden raisins (handfulls)
mayo
using a heavy hand coat the chicken with the cajun seasoning and black pepper
bake
when cool, chop up and add other ingredients
add more cajun spice
don't skimp on the mayo
let sit overnight
pig out
So, there you have it... and now, you must take your turn...and don't be all, "Oh, I'm not doing this because no one cares about a MEME" because you are totally interesting and I WANT TO KNOW more about you.cajun seasoning (I use Paul Prudhomme)

** Jen of Stay at Home Motherdom... my oven? The frillion dollar Viking? She is busted. Flat broke. Worthless piece of shit. However, I stand by my promise, and withing the next 3 to 5 weeks (the time I have been quoted to have the parts in to fix my damn oven) you will receive a Tupperware full of the damn chicken salad. Now, it's personal.

Oh, THANKS! Now everyone will hate me because I have to devulge how weird I am!
The Chicken salad recipe sounds pretty good! I'll make some this week!
Open heart surgery, life studies model AND a recipe! You definately went above and beyond!
Thanks for the recipe. By the way the next time you are up around 4am give me a call. Oh but that would be 7 my time. Anyway I try to drink plenty of wine so I stay asleep. Oh gosh am I a drunk?
That's pretty amazing you've had heart surgery. I'm glad you are okay. I sure would miss my daily dose of Kristin because everyone knows we can't know enough about you (ha,ha,ha). Seriously that is interesting.
Life Studies model, huh? Even at 20 I would have been booed out of the room.
LMFAO @ teaching the kid to make drinks! HAHHAA
"unsuitable men"- hilarious! I'm so glad I tagged you- that was some funny stuff I probably wouldn't have learned otherwise!
Huh? You have the Balboa Jack's chicken salad recipe tattooed on you?
nope - but not a bad idea!!! lisa was referring to my earlirer, pre-edit, syntax!
What's the tatoo?
Nude modeling? I don't think I would have ever had the guts!
What happened that you needed the heart surgery?
I don't think I needed a "list" of unsuitable men...it just seemed to fall in to place naturally.
And Mmmmmm....I will wait for my chicken salad...you and your excuses
Very funny!
Unsuitable men...oh, the joy!
I must admit...I have often wondered, "what is it that makes a man "suitable?"
Still wondering...
:)
Wooo...thank goodness "JD from Musical Ramblings" wasn't on that list...
