List something about yourself that others might find surprising

The title says it all. List something about yourself that other SDers would find surprising. It must be a real thing about you.

For an example:
Iconian could say he once wrote a sentence that was grammatically correct and all the words were spelled correctly.

If that were a true statement, I would find it surprising. laugh out loud


I'll go first...

I have flown a plane.

because he complains about others' spelling? Dontknow
Exactly

Quote from Autumn :
why do you say that?
It's due to the fact that I tell patients that diet and exercise are important, however; I haven't done either of those things in quite a while.

Every doctor and nurse I have met (around here), in the last 5 years is overweight. And about half of the nurses I know smoke. Riddle me that one. Scratchhead

whenever I would drive by the hospital back where I'm from..there would always be a group of nurses/cnas sitting out by the road smoking. and my cousin was a cna for a while and said there would always be a big box of doughnuts in their break room area.

Maybe you need to seek medical attention at your nearest ER.

I have a passion for really really cozy pajamas or feety pajamas.

I've never farted in front of anyone in my entire life (not counting when I'm sleeping or when I was a baby, lol).

I've never gotten a speeding ticket.

Though I was pulled over by a cop a few years back because they suspected I was part of some drug ring (I was in the wrong place at the wrong time).

From age 8 to about 14 I was in over 50 pageants (my parents tried to talk me out of it actually but I loved them too much so they weren't the pageant freaky parents). I was signed by a modeling agency and modeled for different things in Florida, including a commercial for the video capsule (which obviously didn't take off, lol).

The house I lived in when I was a teenager...we all saw ghosts. We lived next to a graveyard and the houses around there all saw things. One night my door locked and started shaking violently like someone was trying to open the door. I was across the room in the bed and then the door swung open by itself.

I HAVE NEVER HAD TO REMOVE HAIR FROM MY TOES BECAUSE THERE NEVER HAS BEEN ANY.

I don't have much hearing in my right ear due to something a nurse did when I was a kid.

I'm dyslexic.

I save the stupid mother farker spiders that get in our house and take them outside. They thank me by coming back in to bite me.

My husband and I broke up when I was 4 1/2 months pregnant with our daughter and we were apart for 4 years before we got back together.

I read a book a night in the bath.

My grandparents house has a big hole in the basement that was part of the underground railroad.
