swv3752's Journal: 20 random things

1) I am half Dutch. This should be hardly surprising to those that know my real name.
2) I am an eigth Scot.
3) I am probably a quarter Latvian Jew. My grandmother was adopted, so nothing confirmed unless I sneak a DNA test on her.

5) I want to be a SciFi author.
6) I used to be a substitute teacher.
7) I have been to 46 continental States.
8) I am mildly allergic to milk, but still drink it.
9) I love most cooked vegetables.
10) I am a better cook than either of my parents, or my sister. (My sister managed to burn spaghetti so it is hardly surprising I am better.)
11) I am on vacation.
12) I own a Dell notebook.
13) My favorite cheese is Irish Swiss.
14) I love all forms of spicy food.
15) I could give up all forms of candy but chocalate.
16) I have yet to find a chocolate dessert that has too much chocolate flavor, but I still keep trying. :-)

18) Digger is my favorite webcomic.
19) While I tend to like the regular run or Action/SciFi/Fantasy movies, one of my favorites is "Ground Hog Day".
20)I read too much slashdot.
