Useless trivia...

Hello Stephen,

I apologize for yesterday's crazy letter.  I know sometimes I get slightly carried away when I write, and for some people sometimes it's "TMI." (Too Much Information).  So, if I offended you or made you feel awkward or embarrassed, I really didn't intend to.  I guess I just think of you as somebody open-minded and able to discuss sexual stuff, without any embarrassment or anything, but that's an assumption, and I was a bit too presumptuous on my part to assume anything. I thought of what I wrote this morning, and thought, "If he were standing right in front of me, or sitting there with me, would I have told him the same stuff in the same way? HELL NO."  But, when I write, it's like a freedom...safety behind a computer screen....so I can say just about anything....I can cause people to bleed from the words I write sometimes.   And if you don't share in a similar "no-boundaries" discussion method, it can often put people off.  So, I hope I didn't put you off in any way...I guess I should really just cut down on the caffeine...it makes me hyper, and without shame. (I am uber sensitive to caffeine. A little bit goes a LONG way).

Ah well, moving on...

Yesterday I started the "Journey-opoly Project," by doing some research and finding various articles about the band from years passed, to use accurate information and to cite sources, so there is no question that this will be a factual game.  (Who can make this shit up anyway?! Not I).  Truth is stranger than fiction!!  Of course, much of what is written about Journey (and yourself) is rumor, or speculation, or wishes and hopes, so it's hard to say really what is absolutely accurate, other than the discography and historical factual info that is deemed as "official."  I used StarPulse.com a lot, and other web sites like it, so whatever was written those years ago will create great fodder for a board game.

I also added "Die Hard Fan" questions, like the "Community Chest" cards on a Monopoly board...so I dug into the articles to find all sorts of useless trivia!!  (I am full of useless knowledge by the way).  If you want to play Trivial Pursuit, I'd probably beat the pants off ya. (Then I'd whoop ya at air hockey to keep those pants OFF awhile)!!  hehehehe (Damn, there I go again, sorry, I'm a shameless hussy sometimes).

Anyway, ahem, so I thought to myself today, "Hmm, since I am so full of useless Journey trivia, why not write to Steve about useless info regarding ME??  Oh my GAWD, I can tell you're THRILLED!!  Yeah yeah yeah, you probably don't give a rat's ass, but I'm gonna do it anyway since you're my captive audience on this blog-o-mine---at least in my imagination.  And so, since I make the rules, Mister Sexy Leather Buttless Chaps and white pirate shirt...(ahhhmmm)....oops, I got distracted....suddenly a Harlequin Romance Novel cover just popped into my head...where was I?? SHINY THING!!

Since I make the rules on this dang blog, I'll imagine that you really and truly want to know me.  Let's pretend, if nothing else, shall we??  (Come on, just humor me, dammit, I'm bored today).  Ok, here goes:

* I was born 5 days after Martin Luther King Jr. was buried. What a world to be a born into.
* I was born with pure white hair and super fair skin.  I still sunburn just with a lamp on even now.
* I took the Keirsey Personality Test years ago, and I am an ENFP personality type. If you Google it, you'll know lots more about me than I could ever divulge in a useless trivia list on a silly blog.
* I have collected over 300 Holocaust books over the years.  I've also read most of them.  I'm obsessed.
* I have about 50 Interior Design books, because I love doing that girly-girl stuff.  I'm obsessed.
* I am scared of heights, but I love to fly in an airplane. (Weird). I just don't like taking off or landing. Or turbulence. Well, okay, I'm a little scared of flying.  Just give me some Dramamine, I'll be fine.
* My favorite thing to eat is:  Doritos. Chocolate. Popcorn. Pretty much all the stuff that's bad for ya.
* I love love love old movies.  I am an addict to Turner Classic Movies.  I love Robert Osborne. I don't like to go to movie theaters very often anymore, though we recently saw "The King's Speech" and it was very well done, informative, and interesting. I liked that movie a lot, but with all the stupid toilet-humor cartoons out there and lame college-kid-have-sex-drink-party movies, it all just bores me to death. Why pay $10 bucks for a ticket and $15 for popcorn and pop to watch Yogi Bear on the theater screen when you can just go to Netflix and order the ORIGINAL Yogi Bear cartoon for $2??!  Seems stupid to me. I'll have to list some of my all-time favorite movies sometime soon.
* I enjoy manicures and pedicures, and getting my hair done, and spa facials, all that stuff, but I rarely have time or the money to have them done.  I used to more when I lived in DC and "had" to be all professional and stuff for my job. Now I'm more relaxed, I wear makeup once in awhile, etc.
* I believe in going commando, every day. Panties just annoy me and interrupt my "chi." Seriously.

* Oops, I'm running late to go pick up Pete at his office so we can go have our date night dinner out.

I'll add more useless trivia next time...and I know you can't wait, Mr. Perriera. (Did I spell that right)? I know you changed your name to Perry...see, I know lots of useless trivia about you...what can I say?! I am obsessed. *wink*  I love ya, you silly gorgeous sensitive fun guy you.

Love, Rebecca
