Five More

There is a “10 Things About Yourself” Thing going around, like the spring flu, and while I previously answered “Five Things You Don’t Know About Me,” I feel like I owe everyone another five now. So here goes:

6. I played flute from age 10 – 20. I probably still can, though I haven’t tried in a long time.

7. I am very very very fond of elephants. I think perhaps I was one in a previous life (if you believe in that sort of thing, which i don’t, except that it’s a handy explanation for why I have such a thing for elephants).

8. I have lived in only 4 apts in the entire 20 years I have lived in NYC, & three of them were in upper Manhattan. (The fourth is the apt I live in now, in Brooklyn.)

9. I have 20/15 vision.

and finally

10. the first short story I wrote, aged 9, was a bad knockoff of A Wrinkle in Time.
