Tell us one thing about yourself

[Swiftie]

I am trying an experimental diet. You restrict your eating to 8 hours per day. In the past four months I've lost 15Kg (33lb) without effort or discomfort.

I went jogging with Bill Clinton once, until a secret service guy on bike rode up to me and told me to stop. The president answered my questions and the secret service guy had a gun, so I stopped.

Me too. Be astonishing if they were the same two kids, wouldn't it?

I can do perfect embroidery without a hoop on a moving school bus with bad shocks while a four year old child sleeps on me.

Second thing about me:
On two completely separate occassions with two different women, I've been engaged to them before going on a date with them. No mail-order brides or arranged marriages involved.

I was effectively engaged to my husband before I'd ever kissed him.

I'm finally writing the children's book I've always wanted to write!
