blather: The Truth about the Eight Truths and Two Lies

[arrow00]

Gah! You people are in fail! Still, bluebrocade and dodificus each got one answer right, so to you I will award the crown of not-so-lame. Please tell me fandom, pairing, rating, and any other prompts or kinks or whatever you would like and I'll see what I can do.


And now, the truth about the 8 Truths and 2 Lies Arrow told you:

1. Arrow went to an all-girls' school where in her first week she got into an altercation with Heidi Glickbarg, who called her "a carpenter's dream".
   TRUE. I tore right into her and ripped her purple Speedo.™ (A carpenter's dream means, "flat as a board and easy to nail.")
   
2. Arrow's older brother once glued her eyelid shut.
   FALSE. This is an apocryphal family tale. The truth is, he asked me to hold his nose cone, which he had recently epoxied. I'm the one who rubbed my eye and glued it shut.
   
3. Arrow writes poetry.
   TRUE. I just never, ever publish it.
   
4. Arrow is afraid of horses.
   TRUE. They're BIG and one tried to bite me once. Plus, I can't tell what they're thinking.
   
5. Arrow doesn't own a dress.
   TRUE. Not even a skirt. I haven't worn a dress since 1989.
   
6. Arrow wore black to her brother's wedding.
   FALSE. Are you kidding? My mother would've KILLED me.
   
7. Arrow has a medical condition that causes her left hand to tingle and sometimes itch uncontrollably.
   TRUE. This is a side-effect of the surgery from the Pinky Incident.
   
8. Arrow went sky-diving to get over her fear of heights.
   TRUE. I'm still afraid of heights, though. But it did teach me not to fear fear so much. I mean, after you've jumped out of an airplane at 10,000 ft., you can pretty much do anything in spite of the fear.
   
9. Arrow won second place at a Kodenkan Jiu-jitsu Rondori tournament.
   TRUE. One of my shining moments as an adolescent. Especially since my brother came home with NOTHING.
   
10. Arrow plays the flute.
    TRUE. But very, very poorly. However, I play a mean ukulele.
    
    Well, that's it. Thanks for playing.

A carpenter's dream: flat as a board, and easy to nail.

That BITCH. I'll go smack her too. Where is she?

I think she's a real estate agent in Los Angeles, now. So she's pretty much her own punishment, really.
