NJM5: Prompted in These Foolish Things

I don’t even know where the prompts come from, but I’ve seen this one in others’ entries so I thought I’d give it a whirl!

List five (5) interesting facts about yourself.

  1. I have never colored my hair. Some people don’t believe this. I’ve let my natural red stay natural all my life. And it’s getting lighter as I age. It is starting to approach strawberry blonde! I eventually want to look like my grandma when she was older: pure white hair. It was so thick and gorgeous and snowy white.

  2. Speaking of hair, I met Jeff Bezos when he still had hair! Back in 2005. It was at the Sundance Film Festival in a gifting house (where I was working, giving away product to all of the celebrities who came in for freebies). He was not the coolest person in the joint, but he was cocky as hell. Basically a know-it-all.

  3. I prefer the mountains to the ocean, though I’m happy going to the ocean! There’s just something about hiking to the top of a mountain peak and looking out for miles and miles that’s awe-inspiring. It’s funny that I live in an area where there are no mountains for hours and hours.

  4. I’ve stood on both Saturday Night Live stages (the monologue stage and the musical stage) in Studio 8-H at the NBC Studios and pretended to be Ed Grimley and introduced Moby!

  5. I’ve had my heart badly broken twice in my life and wonder if it will ever heal. I believe that heartbreak and stress contribute to cancer growth in the body. I’m also still waiting for the BIG LOML (Love of My Life) and willing to risk it all to experience that BIG love.

Ever,
GS

P.S. Where are the prompts coming from?

Old age, probably ;-) xx

True that. My hair is almost white!

I love mountains and oceans equally. I've had a lot more mountain time, though, including living in mountains for 7 years. I've only had a very few times of being near an ocean, so I could definitely use more ocean time.

Yeah, the ocean IS wonderful, but if someone made me choose, I'd have to pick the mountains.

Cathy November 05, 2021

Those are all interesting facts.

I can't even imagine Jeff Bezos with hair. Definitely agree with you about mountains being better than oceans.
