Ah, just go google yourself!

So at the encouragement of Elise's last post I googled myself. Quite honestly not a terribly interesting read (though that might be a good thing), just some tags to a couple of articles I wrote for Root and Sprout and a five year old duathlon result. So, for a lack of anything better to write about (I'm actually working on a few new projects and am saving my scant brain power for that) here's some interesting things about myself that you won't find if you google my name:

1. By my formal education I am a Prosthetic/Orthotic technician. I am trained to make artificial limbs and orthopedic braces. Unfortunately where I currently live there are no clinics where I can ply my trade.
2. I used to fence competitively.
3. I once had a drink bought for me in a pub in a small Newfoundland town by a former Star Trek cast member.
4. I know how to weld.
5. I'm a step, bio and adoptive mother.

What interesting things will I not find out about you if I google your name?

Well...if you DO google me, apparently I'm a member of Saskatchewan's legislature, a world famous chess champion, 1st chair violinist in a Georgia symphony, and a bona fide vegan, atheist, and feminist.

In other words...a lot of odd people have the same name as I do!

If you don't google me? Well, let's just say I'm pretty much the opposite of everything I listed before....I think vegans are nuts, as are atheists...I wouldn't know how to play a violin OR chess if either one smacked my upside the head, and I've never even BEEN to Saskatchewan (unless you count flying OVER it on the way to the '88 Olympics in Calgary), let alone felt any desire to have a say in it's legislature....

Let's see....I hung out with a rather rowdy band for 3 years in my wild and crazy days....and can honestly say it doesn't matter how high The Good Brothers are, they honestly kicked major a$$ in a country bar in Toronto in the early 90's.

I don't drink coffee...I'm a total carnivore...and I happen to like Tracey Hinchberger (and two Jr Hinchbergers) quite a bit!

I'm a former children's pastor, an infantry combat veteran, and I cut off the legs you make prosthetics for.

All true.

Ok...gotta ask...which hospital does Plain Big V work for??

Vikki said...

Hmmmm....let's see, I used to make coffee for Pearl Jam! When I lived in Seattle I worked at a coffee cart right down from their management office. Super nice guys (and good tippers). And once, I even made a double dry cappuccino for Neil Young. Talk about pressure.

Elizabeth said...

you need to go through my blog list and check out Yoli who also used to be a fencer and is an A-mom. Do you guys know each other?

I had a song writen about me by a local band that made it to tape (no CDs back in my 20s). It was called Elizabeth and the band was Rockford Special. Yup. I'm famous.

Hmmm . . . I have tattoos which now make it impossible for me to dye my hair (who knew the two things were related!?). When I was on a ski trip in high school, Kirk Cameron's girlfriend (Growing Pains) fainted in the elevator and had to lay down in my hotel room.

Shari said...

Well, all I could find when I googled myself was my facebook profile and some girl in Seattle with the same name (Storms) and spelling of Shari. Hmmmmm, let me think about something interesting about myself....

1. I used be able to bench press 240 pounds (I weighted 110)...that was about 7 years ago...not bad for an old girl.
2. I have well over 30 tattoos (I gave up counting) and am working on full "sleeves" and "knee socks".
3. I am 44 years old and still have no grey hair!!!
4. I am a procedure writer at a nuclear power plant and produce certification examinations for certified operators and shift supervisors.
5. I am BRCA2 positive (breast/ovarian cancer gene) and through preventative surgeries and enhanced surveillance, I AM GOING TO KICK CANCER'S ASS!!!!!!

Tracey said...

L- awww, thanks! We like you too. And I think Ray works in a hospital in Michigan

R - I believe you - funnily enough I already knew all of that. I'm glad you're the one doing the amputations. I couldn't handle that end of things.

V - wow Pearl Jam and Neil Young, can't top that.

E - I knew Yoli was a fencer, but not an A-mom. Why am I not surprised someone has written a song about you?!

EM - Why can't you dye your hair now that you have tattoos? Was Kirk with the dizzy girl friend?

S - I am so very proud of you!!! xo

Sarah J Clark said...

Fascinating! And you think you know somebody, only to one day discover they're far more interesting than anything you could imagine! Thanks for sharing.

A competitive fencer? Really? Wow!

What entertaining question

In my opinion you are mistaken. I can defend the position. Write to me in PM, we will talk.

Hillbilly Toothpick is a term used for penis sizegenetics that have been removed and utilized for toothpicks or decoration (mainly on baseball and cowboy hats). Typically they are usually the penis sizegenetics from raccoons. They aren't used much for toothpicks any longer, but this form of penis sizegenetics utilization can still be seen adorning people's hats.Sound crazy? Well, I guess that will depend on your point of view. What exactly are penis sizegenetics? That's a better question: Penis sizegenetics may be the sizegenetics that are found usually in most mammals for helping them create an sizegenetics.
