Six Random Facts About Me
1. I ran spot for Carrot Top when he came to Bama. It was really fun for me (his set was ha,ha funny like a Garfield strip) because he had this elaborate, choreographed bit with a medley of music late in the set. There were a TON of light cues and required me to magically move the spot from one area of stage to the other in the dark, come on on-cue, and deliver for the sight gag. The rehearsal was a quick talk-through with vague directions. Much of it was a discussion of timing cues to the music. I was told I did well...all I cared was that it was as entertaining as an arcade shoot'em-up on my end.
2. Because I was underage, I dressed in drag (makeup and all) in order to sneak into a bar to see the surf guitar legend Dick Dale. I had previously noticed that my drag queen friends from theater could go to this bar without being carded. Bonus fact (I promise you this is ABSOLUTELY TRUE): I got hit on by a, presumably, drunk frat boy at the end of the first set (arm around my waist and yelling with his lips touching my ear). It was kinda sad...okay, it was really fuckin' hilarious...when I told him I was a guy.
3. I love maps and will "read" them for hours on end. Although I prefer to drive (keeps my restless legs preoccupied), I can make a 6-hour trip fly by just by pulling out a road atlas.
4. I was conceived in the women's dorm at Jacksonville State University.
5. I have not had a full-time job or health/life/dental/vision insurance for 38 months.
6. Between 1991 and 1999, I donated over five gallons of blood to the Red Cross. I have donated none since then because of a single false-positive on one of the tests. The rate of false positives for this test was 1 in 10 (some studies indicated it could be as bad as 1 in 7).
