AND, The Winner Is.....

Right, so.....would you believe that NOT ONE OF YOU picked the THREE CORRECT answers??? What kind of Cyber Stalkers are you?!!? I guess that means I still retain a little bit of my mystique. ;-)

But, never fear! I have still picked a winner! There were THREE of you that chose TWO correct answers. Those are the guys (Yep! ALL guys.....sorry ladies!) whose names went in the trusty Kitchen Aid.

FIRST: The Answers

#1 As a child, my Grandmother would tell me stories of her life growing up. She was one of 13 children. Her Mother died when she was very young & her Father remarried a homicidal maniac. The children all had to sleep in one bed as the family was very poor. She told me how her Father would have to lie across the bottom of the children's bed to stop her step-mother from lighting the children on fire each night.
100% TRUE
This was like 80 years ago & mental illness was not something that was talked about, so instead of doing anything with his wife after he caught her with lit matches trying to set the children's sheets on fire (while they were sound asleep) my grandmother's Father simply kept watch over them each night. Suddenly my problems don't seem that bad!??!

#2 When I was 17 years old I attended a Metallica concert with my older cousin. (She was sent along, by my parents, to keep an eye on me.) We were lucky enough to get a chance to be in the mosh pit. They had started their second song, "...And Justice for All", when I realized I was getting raised up in the air! I was carried forward & thrust onto the stage! I was so excited, I thought, I'll get to touch James Hetfield! But before I could even stand up two bodyguards ran over & carried me off the stage. Then they made me leave the arena. I was escorted to the door with instructions not to come back in. I had to sit & wait outside for 2 hours before the concert ended & my cousin came looking for me.
NOT TRUE!!!
This was a bit of a trick question (statement?). If you took my current age & subtracted the age I was at this supposed concert, you would be able to figure out the year (1980) (should read: 1990). This was many years before Metallica even released their single "...And Justice for All" (1988).
***Edit: Someone's paying attention! HAHA!! Serious typo here people! Thanks to "anonymous"...a super math whiz (or someone who gets more ZZzzz's than I do!). So...yeah...maybe I was at that concert after all??? NOT!!! I suppose this also proves I'm not much of a Metallica fan if I didn't even get their album release date right? Did I get the lead singers name right?

#3 I used to be a TOTAL tomboy. At the age of 19 I started honing my drinking skillz. I continued my research for 5 more years, until I could keep up with the best of them. Guys, I mean. I could drink ANY guy under the table & still keep my wits about me. You name it, I could drink it non-stop without puking: Tequila, Jägermeister, Sambuca, Beer, Beer, Beer & more Beer. I was not dating anyone but I had lots of guys as friends. I was a legend. I'd be invited to all their parties because they would tell their friends about this chick who could really hold her liquor!
100% TRUE
Yeah...what can I say about this? Haven't had a drop to drink for about 4.5 years now. I don't need to.....I drank enough then to last me a LIFETIME!!! Hahaha!

#4 When I was a wee child my parents took me to the store to pick out my very first pet, a guinea pig. I chose the only white one they had & called it "Corky". We took it home & put it in a small aquarium. My parents left me alone with Corky. I repeatedly picked it up by it's tail & 'played' with it & kissed it & squeezed it.....oops....."Mom! Dad! Corky won't play with me anymore!" They explained to me that Corky was dead & in a much better place. I cried. The next day I got a black one & called him "Midnight".
100% TRUE
Yes, yes.....this is where I got most of you. Because no WAY would a vegetarian that won't even buy leather shoes ever do something like this, right?!!? It was a total accident & if you must know, I still think about it a LOT & feel like shit! I had to be about 6 years old & the poor poor thing probably died of a coronary. I wasn't as graceful & gentle as a child as I am now, go figure???

#5 I have a tiny scar, about an inch long, on my derriere, right side, lower down. It's very faint now as it happened 11 years ago. I was dating a guy that was a total gentleman. He was very polite & well educated (he was *ahem* a bit older than I was). We had been seeing each other for months, when I decided I'd go back to his place with him one evening. One thing led to another, my skirt was off, we were kissing ... when all of a sudden WHHACK! He had spanked me! I was surprised, but I kind of ignored it. All of a sudden WHHHHACK AGAIN! I jumped. I said, 'Take it easy'! Before I knew it WHHHHACCCCKKKK! A third time, this time hard enough to draw blood as his ring must have turned around & caught me just so! I turned around, kicked him in the leg, grabbed my clothes & ran out the door, never to see him again!
NOT TRUE!!!
OMG! C'mon people...I can see a wacko coming from a mile away! No chance I'd ever end up with my skirt AND my guard down at the same time!!! PLUS...I gave you a clue here: I said this was 11 years ago & we had been dating for months. I also said in #3 that I was not dating anyone during my drinking years (& gave the age I was), so-if you factored in my current age you'd find one of the statements was false. Am I too crafty or too anal retentive?!!? (DON'T answer that!)

#6 My first job was in a fast food restaurant. I worked at McDonalds. I was supposed to be a cashier but I was so shy & quiet that the boss moved me to the back. He said he was afraid I couldn't handle people giving me their orders. I was crushed. It was just McDonalds, after all! It mattered not for I wouldn't speak up at that time. I ended up frying french fries all evening & sweeping the floors & emptying the garbage cans in between. I only lasted one month. I had only made enough money to buy a walkman & 2 cassettes.
NOT TRUE!!!
LOL...what's to say about this one? Never worked in a fast food joint of any chain.
