A few things you may not know about IleenieWeenie…
- I suffer from emetaphobia (irrational fear of vomit). More than once I’ve spent the night in my car in the driveway when my husband’s had a stomach bug.
- One summer I took graphic design courses in Switzerland with the guy who designed the IBM logo.
- I was a ski bum in Vail, Colorado for three years.
- I won 1st place in the 6th grade science fair with an experiment involving human teeth.
- My parents almost named me Samantha, but my mom was worried that if I had a lisp I’d be Thamantha Markowithz.
- I was Junior class president of my high school.
- I once tread water for seven hours straight for a contest at summer camp. (I won)
- I don’t eat meat that walks on land, and I don’t like vegetables.
- I kept a pair of rhinestone dance shoes in the trunk of my car for nearly 10 years. (because you just never know)
- One of the best meals of my life was Long John Silver’s takeout, and I wasn’t even stoned.
** Mr. Weenie thinks I should add that I’ve never seen “The Outlaw Josey Wales.”

5. My parents almost named me Wendy. I don’t know what changed their mind, but I’m grateful for it
8. I’ll be sure to trim the feet off the Salmon next time I cook for you.

Wow- Wendy – hard to imagine that.
Man I wanna hear about your snow bum days! I envy people that can do that kinda thing I am just way too type A for that though.
That’s going to have to be a series of posts, most of which will be very blurry.
I hope you put those shoes back in your car because that is a great idea :) I keep one pair of ridiculous shoes in my closet even though I haven’t worn them in years just in case I get invited to a ball.
I’m patiently waiting on 11-20 (I knew most of these!) :)

Yeah, the problem is that half my list will have to wait until both my grandmothers and my parents are dead.
My parents thought I was going to be a boy and I was supposed to be Raymond Patrick Benavides. Luckily they had Bonnie Catherine just in case.
I would like to see these sparkly dancing shoes the next time I see you!!

So many things are now clear to me :)
