Good grief. This hurts my brain to continue this list. No one is 100-things-interesting. Can I use facts about other people? Huh? No? Argh.
---------------------------------------------------------
61. I love Chik-Fil-A. Give me nuggets and sauce NOW.
62. I have big knockers. Big jugs. Big cans. Big fun bags. Big dirty pillows. But I want you to look into my eyes. No, up here.
63. I've been married for 10 years. We were married in Negril, Jamaica, overlooking the bay. A nude beach was just to the right.
64. I love gardening. I worked in plant biology for a few years, and I'm a complete herb and plant geek. I have a list of MUST HAVE plants. They are mostly listed in The Undaunted Garden, one of my favorite books about Colorado gardening.
65. I own a business. At one time or another, you may have seen my products in Whole Foods, Wild Oats, and other health food stores across the nation. It is not what it was.
66. I was an extra in Austin in a movie that was probably never finished or sold (so was Phil).
67. Star Magazine is like crack to me. Shoot it in my veins, por favor. Or, just let me read it while I'm in the bathroom.
68. In the 5th grade, I played Shirley in our class production of Tall Tales and Heroes. I forgot to step away from the mic during the group singalongs, so my brother relished telling me later on, "Huh. All we could hear was your dumb butt up there singing."
69. I played the clarinet from 6th grade through senior year. I am a band geek, through and through. Yes, I was first chair most of the time.
70. I can still remember the words I recited during a church Nativity play my sister and I participated in sometime in the late 70s. "We are the angels who sang the song to the world that waited so long." I wore angel wings (stop smirking).
71. I'm convinced that Phil is the best lover in the world. Also, I don't like the word "lover." I tend to say it like "liver." Such as, "Come on over here, my liver."
72. My right eardrum was burst at some point or another, probably when I flew while sick. It still pops sometimes. The last time I flew, air would gush out of my eardrum if I blew my nose.
73. My imagination was gigantic as a child. I had my own show, called "The Super Sare Show."
Sometimes I allowed my sister to guest star as Farrah Fawcett. The style of the show was patterned after "Solid Gold" (not the Marylin McCoo years).
I wore a cape that consisted of me sticking my head through a hole in a very old and nasty baby blanket (my "baba"). See how Irene Cara makes her entrance in this video? Imagine a little girl in a nasty cape doing the same thing.
74. In my youth, I would draw a comic strip I made up called "Herb." Herb was a sad guy with a pointed nose who smoked, drank coffee, and said wryly humorous things (or as humorous as I could make up as a 7-year-old). It was vaguely "Bloom County"esque, but before "Bloom County."
75. I love to play Grand Theft Auto. However, it leaves me feeling a bit violent afterwards. Phil feels my wrath on occasion after I play.
76. "Hot" guys do not turn me on. Brains and a sense of humor knock my socks off.
77. I like to bastardize words. Such as, "balentine" instead of "valentine." "Substinance" instead of "sustenance." Creped myrtle. And many others. Sometimes I say these bastardized words in front of other people, and those people clearly give me looks as if I am an idiot.
78. I gave up wanting to pursue a doctorate in some branch of biology in order to write and to start a business.
79. The only importance I feel of myself now is that I am Amos' mother and Phil's lady.
80. I was voted "smartest" in my senior yearbook. I was hoping that they would add "Most Likely to Leave This Town and State" or "Most Likely to Make the Cheerleaders Cry."
13 beautiful people muttered something back:
I was going to use "I have big knockers" as my #1 interesting thing about me, but I can't use that now you have. Thank you very much!!!!
I was feeling all flattered by #71, but #76 might have canceled that out. Also, I was very distracted by the Solid Gold videos.
I wonder what ever happened to "Connected - The Movie" (#66). It was going to be about the cutting edge brand new to 1999 technology of the Internet! If the Internet had been more successful, maybe the movie would've been, too.
Stephen - HAHAHAHAHA!! You never cease to entertain me.
Phil "is the ball and chain" - I like how when I just asked you, "Hey, why did you get offended at #76?", you responded by strutting around in your obscene-hole-in-the-crotch sweatpants and stroked your awesome bedhead-crazy hair while saying, "Because I AM HOT."
I couldn't remember the name of the 'movie' we were in. I wonder if it was ever released...
if everyone listed numbers 73 and 74 on their most interesting 100 things about them, i think my head would explode from (a) too much laughter (b) too much lerve. this list is ferociously funny.
i just ran across your blog and i'm loving it. phil's too (just so he doesn't feel left out). i'd like to link to you from my bloggage - any objections?
i live here:

i would have signed in with my google blogger ID, but today is a research & write-your-arse-off day in study hell and my brain is shrinking as i write. i ran out of cells.
cheers me dears,
caw
I am so in awe of your 100 things list. I'm still struggling back at #35 on mine. I may never get past it. "Most likely to make the cheerleaders cry" sounds like just the kind of award I wanted only I never thought of. I think these days I'm "most likely to plagiarize." lol
I want to meet "Herb." I, too, make cheerleaders cry.
We didn't have real cheerleaders anyway so what's the fun in making them cry. :)
Bastardized words. A long time ago, I used to go out with a girl named 'Midge'. Her mother was a tall, silver haired, reserved woman of quiet dignity. But she and Midge had a game they would play, when alone. They would reverse the first initial of movie and television stars. Bob Hope became Hob Bope, etc. One day, her mom looked up at the TV, F Troop was on, and this soft spoken woman from Ireland said "Oh look, there's Torrest Fucker."
I bet the list of must-have plants is something you could go into quite a lot of detail about. Do tell!
#76- I totally agree. Also, just wanted to mention, you are way more interesting than me and I have only read 2 posts out of this list of 100.
One more thing, my uncle says supposably instead of supposedly, you might want to try that one.
Re #80: By the time I was a senior, yearbooks were getting really expensive, so they eliminated the "most likely" votes and all that. I could say I also would have been voted Most Likely to Leave This Town and State, except I seemed to be one of those "invisible" people. So I just left almost immediately after graduation. I'm still not sure anyone noticed.
Alas, no such luck with "Most Likely to Make Cheerleaders Cry." To do that, you have to be one of those late bloomers who show up at the 20-year reunion with incredible body and fantastic personality, while the cheerleaders have six kids and weigh 240. Rats. That didn't happen.
Lauren Springer is one of the best friends of a good friend of mine and I've actually met and gardened with her once. How funny!
