Weird facts about me…
I have visited all regions of the North American continent. I was raised in 6 states, and now live in Oklahoma. I go by the nicknames Shard, Gumbi, and Mr. Stretch. I first went to college on a National Merit scholarship, and my bachelors degree was in music. I used to play violin professionally until a freak car accident involving a garbage truck and a city bus in Seattle. I've had a lifetime of various injuries and trauma resulting in 76% of my ligamental structure being destroyed or crippled. I have to put my shoulders, left elbow, right hip, both ankles, and two ribs back into place every morning when I wake up. I am right handed even though I was born left-handed. I now work in a call center taking executive escalations for major clients, with associates degrees in computer sciences and sociology. I plan on returning to school to become a psychiatrist despite having had two careers already.

Strange facts about you
I'm ambidextrous (My grandmother used to make me write with my right hand while I was left handed. I don't know if it was a superstition thing, because she was really superstitious at that time. Don't walk around with one shoe, black cats etc.) Oh, and I click my nails together alot…Does that count? That's about all I can think of :p.I used to be ambidextrous until I had an accident on my bike when I was 10. My left wrist has been playing up ever since. But more often in recent years. I'm gonna try and see if those bandages boxers wear will help me out with the support I need for it.
I'm a snake fanatic but I'm scared of spiders and babies up to the age of 1!
When I wasn't long born I freaked the nurses out because I was able to lift up my head and turn it over while I was getting changed. Newborns aren't supposed to be able to do that. Even though I was late by a few days. I also frequently undid my swaddling so I could look at my fingers despite most other babies that age not being able to do that either. Also there was a bit of a scare when I was being born in that the doctors couldn't read my heartbeat very well. They all got worried about me for nothing, as I was just holding the umbilical cord!
When I was a toddler I used to make up stories on the spot to tell my mum. In nursery/kindergarten I learned to make my own books.
I made my very first animation when I was seven. It was a stop-frame animation with several Sylvanian Families. I made several of these films up to the age of 13.
I spoke in a scouse accent up to the age of eight. I can switch back and forth between both my main accents at will. But nowadays I use a combination of the two.
My earliest memories are from when I was one. And I can often remember facts about my early childhood that even my parents don't remember. As well as some of the degrading things I had to do. Like getting potty trained…
I've got more but for now I'll just put on one more.
Both my toes and hands aren't symmetrical. My ring finger on my left hand is shorter than my index finger, while it's the opposite on my right hand. And on my feet my smallest toe on one is considerably shorter than the other. Though that might be because of an accident I had when I was 12 involving a kitchen wall and a carton of pineapple juice…
But I've said some of these things before…
I was in a vehicle accident so horrific, California Highway Patrol didn't want to go up to my car because they thought I was smashed and dead inside. I was, in fact, actually making sure others involved in the accident were doing alright and calling 911 on someone else's cell phone. To top it all off? I don't remember doing any of it and I didn't break single bone. I was told by CHP at home the day after it happened. The guy wanted to see how I was after being shocked I survived it all.
Yes, I have pictures.
The little toe on my feet are horned.
Was impaled around age 8. Never went to a hospital for it.
Abnormal blood temperature of 94.1
I am a Lymes carrier and cannot donate blood.
Until this past summer when I got a 2 day fever, I had not been sick with anything in over 5 years.
I walk on my toes near exclusively when I'm not wearing footwear. It just feels natural. I incorporate this quality in the main character of my comic.
Was witness to the murder of my neighbor as a teenager.
Never been stung by bees/wasps/etc.
Received a profound vision when I was 7 which became the defining factor of my life. Since then, I have been waiting for the day to fulfill the vision as well as understand it. Beyond that mentioning, I am not allowed to talk about it.
I came to my mother in a dream and was born some months after. I was also a 10 month pregnancy instead of 9.
I believe the greatest and most powerful legacy anyone can leave the world is not their offspring, but their ideas, stories, and thoughts. All of today's people live in the guidance of yesteryear's shadow. That is true influence.
Was witness to the murder of my neighbor as a teenager.Holy s#$tf%&k! That must've been traumatising.

Another fact about me: I was with my twin sister (we were 7 years old) in the back seat of our family car (which was parked outside a preschool) when some guy broke open the front car door on the passenger side, grabbed my mother's bag and ran off. My parents weren't in the car at the time, they were in the preschool to pick up my younger sister. It took me and my twin sis about ten minutes to realise that we had just witnessed a theft.
One more fact about me: I have a twin sister.

I have X-ray vision.Hey! So does my ass!
I'm a little botanaphobic except for trees.

I'm deadly scared of locus..loci…locuses?
I can't tell with an instrument is toned or not
I have 12 cats
I used to have a speech impendiment, that sometimes comes back
I'm scared of hieghts and lizards all because of one event((which will be put into my comic))
For some reason the number 69 has been appearing alot to me. I do a math problem bam 69 I roll a six sided dice 3 three times and got 69. My life always go to 69 in video games and card games. Also I get 666 alot in card games :3
And her eyes are always shiny and red. It's a great look during Christmas… ;)No, that's the flash photography you silly monkey :)
I have 12 catsYou are a good person! ^_^
One thing about me, not so silly this time-
I seem to be good with animals; wild or domestic, birds, kangaroos, horses, goats, whatever. I seem to be good at handling them and getting them to trust me. No special reason for it, I just tend to be good at reading their moods and predicting their actions from their body language.
…could be because I'm Aussie… I better not try it on stingrays then. :(
12 cats? Wow, that's a lot of kittie litter! 69, hmm.. I wonder what that means? :) Also, I have a slight, annoying speak impediment that I am able to hide most of the time, so I know how you feel :D

I don't like getting unexpected phone calls…
Which is annoying, as I can't reasonably ask people to send advance warning by postcard or email :)
I wish my phone had a really apologetic-sounding ringtone, that starts off with a discreet throat-clearing - "ahem" - and then scales up to a normal summons if I try to ignore it.
I found out something about myself recently in regards to a twin. Apparently I was supposed to have one, who died in the womb. Somehow other people knew about this but I didn't and have used it to explain away a lot of my more erratic and odd actions and behaviors throughout my life.
I just maintain that there is absolutely nothing odd about taking your shoe off, putting it over your hand and studying it thoroughly in a public place to draw from or talking to said shoe when people start giving you funny looks for it.
