1. I'm six feet tall. (OK, in all honesty, 5'11", but when I wear heels, which is often, I'm 6'2".)
3. I have several close friends who I have known for more than half my life.
4. The one I've known the longest is My Best Friend From High School, a/k/a MBFFHS a/k/a Francesca.
6. When confronting someone who needs a smackdown, I apply bright red lipstick. It scares them.

8. Even without heels, I have an aerial view of most men's receding hairlines.
11. All my female ancestors are very bossy women.
14. My kids are the best. So there. Beautiful, smart, strong, fearless.
23. I don't have a uvula, tonsils, adenoids, or part of my upper palate (a very small part, so it's not like I have a big hole there or anything). So it's not like I'm a complete or total (*snerk*) woman or anything. Just bits and pieces.
27. I've lived in the United States and Spain. Maybe I'll add more later, or maybe I'll remove this list. We'll see.
