Look, it's a post, an actual post!

It's been ages since I made an LJ entry, but I so enjoyed reading everyone else's 'Ten things' entry that I've made one of my own:



1. Been white-water rafting down the Zambezi River by Victoria Falls

2. Suffered from gangrene.

3. Posed topless for a professional photographer. What? The photos were *art*! Honest.

4. Been hit by an oil tanker (oil truck in American parlance) whilst cycling in Enid, Oklahoma. I survived. The bike didn't.

5. Gone out with 3 guys at the same time, none of whom knew about the others, until the point when all of us attended the same party.

6. Hidden from the police, who were chasing me at the time, by climbing on top of a transit van.

7. Been banned from court by an irate judge.

8. Suffered concussion from a skiing accident, in which I left a 40 feet long trail of blood in the snow.

9. Been hit on the head with a poker.

10. Sung karaoke at a bar in Beijing with several high-ranking members of the Chinese Communist Party.

You're not alone on #5. Exactly the same.

Oooh, details, please if you're prepared to give them. In other words, I'm madly curious as to what happened at the moment of truth.

It was the first year of college/university. I was going out, not seriously, with several guys though my eye was on someone who didn't notice me. And the dorm was having a party, so I asked Guy #1, who said he couldn't make it. I asked Guy #2, who said he'd try but wouldn't promise anything, and I asked Guy #3 because I felt sorry for him, I think; he was having some problems and needed diversion but said he was busy.

Come the day of the party, they all showed up, and stood around in the corner talking with each other instead of mixing. And they mostly went off together, and I ended up with someone entirely different.

They all sound remarkably civilised, and it sounds as if you had a good time. *g* It all sounds very reasonable as well, after all it's not your fault that they couldn't make up their minds whether to go to the party or not.
