The Answer to Tag

Is #4 “I once gave a gerbil mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.”  Haven’t needed to yet.  I’m sure hoping I never do.

I sold the house for 120% of what I put into it, including purchase price and repairs.  In actuality, though the buyers asked to see the house during the yard sale and had obviously made up their minds, they did have an inspector go through and passed a contract back and forth a couple of times so it was a couple of months before the closing.

My father also went from straight to curly in one year, but no longer lived with my family when my hair went.  His only advice was to put it up in a bun, as his mother did, or keep it very short.  It was years and years before I discovered the wonders of styling gel.  I learned from a stranger in line for a roller coaster who also had curly hair.

Both my fastest and my slowest books were DOA.  Not worth trying to fix.  The slowest was never actually completed at all.  I buried it in a filing cabinet with no handles and praise the day I came to my senses and gave up on it.  To my credit, I was 14 when I started it and through the course of working on it made every writing mistake you can think of.  I wrote another book in 15 days that I’m still revising.

As to the belief in accounting … what can I say.  I believe a lot of odd things.
