1.  d.  12 kids.
2.  b. a writer, concert pianist, and professional lawnmower.
3.  d.  9 lbs. 
4.  a. grocery store cashier
5.  A trick question.  I did go into shock when I hit the water after jumping off the cliff.  It was really, really cold water.  But I wasn’t near death.  I did think I was going to die from the pain of labor though. 
6.  d. my dentist-- and he deserved it.  He was pulling my upper wisdom teeth and really yanking on them and accidentally slipped and jabbed me in the tongue.  Faster than I realized I backhanded him in the face. 
7.  All were actual put-downs.  But the worst was c. 23 years old from the music department professor, “What do you know about music?! You have no right coming in here for a music scholarship . . .”  Long sad story about how a person of power was able to make me doubt myself for several years and give up teaching piano.  I had taught piano since I was fifteen. 
8.  b. China Light CafĂ©.  Mmm . . .  Much better than Lee’s Chinese food—ick. 
9.  c. Claustrophobia.  Though Dad and Danny would argue “a.” as well.  But I looked up the definition of arachnophobia and it said, “an abnormal fear of spiders.”  I think I have a “normal” fear of spiders. 
10.  d. play XBOX without getting motion sickness.  Mostly true.  I can play one game called Hexic.  But all these other run-around-and-get-‘em games make me very motion sick.

happy birthday! (ok, I'm one day late . . . still, a birthday should last all week, right?)
I loved the quiz and answers - I actually knew many of the answers, a couple were real surprises - sorry about the put downs! Keep smiling and have a really great year.
