And the Truth Is....

Five Truths and One Lie About Dorothy

And the truth is....

1. I can knit while sleeping (Votes: 0)

True! I spent many a roleplaying session peacefully dozing on the comfy couches in the Bishop's Common, knitting my latest Dr. Who scarf. Granted, it has to be a pretty simple pattern, but I have achieved many quality cat-naps without dropping a stitch.

2. I have been to Stonehenge (Votes: 0)

True! I went to England for a week while in high school, and while our tour was mostly about seeing theatre stuff (got to see Kenneth Brannagh in Henry V in Stratford, which was cool even if I didn't have any clue who he was until years later), we did make a stop to see Stonehenge.

3. I can't read my college diploma (Votes: 3)

True! As xochiquetzl correctly surmised, the entirety of my diploma is written in Latin, a language that I, sadly, do not read. Some parts are common sense, like "Baccalaurei in Artibus" and (my personal favorite) "repulica Tennesseensi," but the rest I just take on faith.

4. I have never wrecked a car (Votes: 3)

False! I have wrecked many, many cars.... Well, okay, mostly I've only wrecked one car, but I wrecked that one three times alone. Once it wasn't even my fault.

5. I have performed on a record album (Votes: 1)

True! I have the honor of being one of several hundred musicians recorded on an album made of the East Tennessee Band and Orchesta Association's 1983 band camp concert. I expect that the royalty checks will arrive eventually.
