Things I Have Done
Mar. 1st, 2005 11:03 amThings I have done that those on my LJ friends list probably haven't.
#1. Recited the sinner's prayer out loud on my knees in a thick British movie villian accent while wearing a Captain Hook costume in front of two hundred people.
#2. Been in a relationship with a woman who I had previously been married to.
#3. Learned to speak an artificial language with a grammar based on formal predicate-argument logic systems.
#4. Playtested Disney's prototype virtual reality magic carpet ride system during the mid-nineties.
#5. When I was a teen, I neglected to learn the name of a person who had been my only friend for almost a year. It turned out to be the same as mine.
#6. Got to the age of 29 without ever consuming alcoholic beverages, and currently have still never used tobacco or narcotics. I know at least two others on my LJ friends list of whom this is true, but I'm putting it in there anyway.
That's all I can think of right now. People usually list ten, but this meme can't tell me what to do. I will partake on my own terms. It's entirely possible that other people have done one or more of these.

"Beer is carbonated? Who knew?"
