10 short ways by which I don't usually introduce myself (with thanks to syleth)
I ....
1. can twitch my ears.
2. prefer a temperature of about 15°C.
3. can't tell the time from an analogue clock without reciting under my breath that the big hand is the minute hand.
4. can read upside down as fast as most people can read right-side up.
5. have never broken a bone.
6. can clearly remember a dog belonging to my parents, who died before I was born.
7. can very rarely come up with a fictional name that does not contain the letters 'th'.
8. have never found that someone else had my username anywhere.
9. carry at least one crystal or gemstone at any given time.
10. played a B-flat trumpet for five years, and it still shows when I shout.
