It's a Demtel thing... (you know "but wait, there's more?", get it?)

Just what you were all waiting for. Twenty more things about moi - as tagged by Kranki

This time I'm gonna keep it light. Maybe even add a picture or two, so I can write less.

Oh and I'm going to start at 21, since I already did my first 20 a little bit ago.

21. I absolutely love Mötley Crüe. Deal with it. I don't care that its not PC to like them because they denegrate women. I love them because of their music. And because Tommy Lee is actually kinda hot in a wrong kind of way.
22. As a teenager, my style icons were Molly Ringwald and Caitlin from Degrassi Junior High.
23. It still bugs me that my brother named his two daughters the same names as my arch-nemesis at high school (Zoe) and her hideously evil older sister (Katie). Brutha's Zoe is 6 and Katie is 4. You think I would have gotten over it by now, but no. Its still irritating as all f**k.
24. Partly due to the reasons above, I call Zoe - Zoob and Katie - Buddha. I also call her Buddha cos she's a chunky little thing with a belly just screaming to be rubbed. I may end up paying for her therapy someday but I also have a feeling she's going to turn out to be a stand-up comedian so she'll get her revenge on me.
25. The first album I ever owned (not purchased) was this one:


26. The second album I ever owned was this one:

My record/CD collection doesn't get much better than that.
27. After watching this person in this show, I decided I wanted to learn to play the cello. Unfortunately a high proportion of girls at my school decided the same thing and since there weren't enough cellos to go around I spent five years trying to learn viola, flute, clarinet and oboe. I suck at all of them.
28. I cried last week watching The Biggest Loser when Pete got voted out and they showed his after video.
29. I wore braces on my teeth for a year when I was 9, then wore a retainer for a year when I was 10, then had braces put on again when I was 13 and had them removed shortly before my 17th birthday. Needless to say, my parents did not get one decent school photo of me during those times - I either scowled or skipped school on photo day.
30. When my sis got married she made me wear a purple taffeta frock with puffed sleeves and a V back, with matching purple court shoes and a purple floral headpiece. At my school formal later the same year I wore a black velvet mini dress, fishnet stockings and black Doc Martens.
31. I sleep naked. Even in winter.
32. I can recite whole passages from To Kill A Mockingbird. My favourite passage is Dill's introduction.
33. Best kid's book ever.
34. Best picture book ever.
34. I'm allergic to mushrooms.
35. Kranki is my six degrees of Jason Bateman person.
36. I've seen this person in concert twice - once at the Royal Albert Hall and once here in Sydney. The only friends who don't give me grief about it are Charlotte (who has also seen him in concert) and Debster (who used to be in musical theatre herself and since she once played Dinah in Starlight Express knows she has no call to be dissing another musical theatre performer).
37. I don't care if you give me grief about #36. I will continue to sing along to his CDs when I'm doing housework for as long as I feel like it. Its like #21. You just have to accept that about me. Or not.
38. I always read my horoscope. In fact, I usually read about four or five different ones each day and choose the one which suits me best.
39. I'm love Lush. I love this and this and this and this. And because my lovely Lulu has just started working there, I now love them at a 50% discount.
40. I'm a night owl. Even when I have to start work at 9am, like tomorrow today, I still can't get to sleep until past midnight.
But its way past that now, so I'm heading off to bed. And yes, I will be naked. Fantasise, throw up, make what you will of that.
Oh and I'd better tag some people. I promised Muffin that I'd tag her next time I was doing one of these things, so that's one. Anyone else who cares to do so may.
