Beth<\/a> tagged me with a seven-facts-you-don’t-know-about-me meme.<\/p>\n

I thought I would use this opportunity to clear up some lies (and one truth) I spread here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

1. I started this blog in Feburary of 2007.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not true.<\/span>
Though looking at my archives, it appears I have posts that were created in February of 2007, my first actual post<\/a> was done in March. I used the month of February to build a Choose Your Own Adventure<\/a> story, which I created in July, 2007. I was creating a lot of content-related posts that I wanted to group together, so I thought it would make sense to group them together in a month where I hadn’t done any posts.<\/p>\n

If you enjoy reading all the pages of a choose your own adventure story without bopping back and forth between choices you make, you can always read mine like this<\/a>.<\/p>\n

2. Bun E. Carlos, the drummer for Cheap Trick, is my second cousin, and I see him occasionally at family functions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not true.<\/span>
Sorry, I don’t even know the man. <\/p>\n

3. I have a tattoo of Jonny Quest on my left shoulder.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not true.<\/span>
I don’t have any tattoos, but a Jonny Quest tattoo on the shoulder wouldn’t be a bad idea.<\/p>\n

4. I am afraid of squirrels.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not true.<\/span>
I had my hair cut outside by a relative in preparation for my brother’s wedding (she didn’t want to hair up the house). A squirrel was very interested in us, and my hair dropping to the ground. She was very frightened of the squirrel, but it didn’t really bother me.<\/p>\n

5. One winter, my brother and I built a snow fort in our front yard that was so large and elaborate it was photographed for the front page of the State Journal Register newspaper.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not true.<\/span>
I built a snow fort with my brother one winter, and it was really cool, but it probably wasn’t that big, and it didn’t get photographed for the paper.<\/p>\n

6. I verbally insulted Steven Seagal on a hotel elevator after he drunkenly stumbled into me without apologizing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not true.<\/span>
But wouldn’t it be great if it was?<\/p>\n

7. I am looking forward to a relaxing meme-free February.<\/span><\/p>\n

TRUE!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
