4 things you don't know about me..

[tinybutterfli]

Okay so I'm bored and I thought I'd use this time to maybe get to know a little more about my fellow CPers...

So here's what you do - list 4 things that CPers don't know about you. Nothing too personal of course....

1. I'm a lefty
2. I will not eat red m&m's. They frighten me
3. English is not my first language (I didn't speak it till I was 5 or 6 -)
4. I use to be a ballerina

4. When I was 6, I had to have surgery to lengthen my tongue - I had such a bad speech impediment that I sounded like a toddler still learning how to talk
