Well the new "asshole" sect would probably put it in line with mainstream Christianity.

I struggle with my "Quakerness" due to money/possessions usually.

But yeah, my grandparents were from a line of Quakers which went back as far as Penn.

(I became Quaker through Tolstoy's book "The Kingdom of God is Within You".)

I'm a HUGE "Doctor Who" fan. I made the mistake of secretly watching one of the final episodes of season 4 in the office and was crying. It was awkward with my coworkers.

My jersey name is "Doctor Who" after the show.

I sleep with my version of the baby blanket, a pillow called baby pillow. It was the pillow my mother grew up sleeping on and it smelled like her. I always worry that when I leave it home when I go on a trip the house will burn down and I will lose it.

I would secretly love to be a fighter pilot for the navy.

I'm a little obsessive about the NYC subways and buses. For some reason I like knowing about service advisories, subway line histories, changes in routes, etc...

I try to take public transit in every other major city to compare. I've ridden the T a couple times in Boston and a bus in Miami once. have yet to hit the DC metro or any of the Philly lines. The one time I went to LA, the people I was with wouldnt DARE let me take LA public transit. It was forbidden.

I love the DC metro. Best looking stations I've seen.

^^^I said it was like going into MIB headquarters the first time I rode.

I was an Emo kid in high school, though "Emo" wasn't a word back then so we were lumped with the Goth kids. Yes, all black, greasy hair, the whole nine. I was very into spiritual exploration and whatnot. Part of that was exploring lots of religions to see where I fit and I almost converted to Wicca. Even though I'd been raised with Christian values, I was terrified that I'd spend my whole life believing in a God that wasn't there or didn't exist in the way I'd always believed.

Uh, ... I'm a virgin ...

I assumed that if I held on to my virtue that some knight in shining armor would sweep me off my feet, and I'd live happily ever after. Well, now I'm 37 and not even dating anyone ...

I am severely phobic about ticks (not "dicks" as people think I say in person). I may have actually mentioned it before on GC, but it's bad enough to mention again.

I would go to the ER if I had a tick on me.

I also have a story about supernumerary nipples, but I don't think GC is ready for that.

I was a cheerleader in highschool all four years, and for two years in college. I posted that a few years ago, but I guess most people wouldn't think a cheerleader would like scorpions, spiders, bugs and fruit bats.

One of my coworkers is part of an awesome group... they placed in a recent ABDC & likely would have won if it weren't for the fact that they were a B-Boy group (which ABDC was getting flack for). But seriously... awesome to watch. Those guys can do some ridiculous things!

I was obsessed with Scooby-Doo from second to fourth grade and wanted to be Velma.

I was prom queen and 9th in my graduating class (of 120ish).

I graduated HS at 17.

I had very close to a full-ride in undergrad. (like 90%)

I moved to Ohio at 13, in November and proceeded to go to my new school wearing a windbreaker thinking it wasn't that cold.
