A Woman Of No Importance

I'VE SORT OF TAGGED MYSELF.
I'M AN ARIES, THAT'S WHAT WE DO.

First, I have really asked for permission and
been granted it. I've taken this post from
Raph's Ramblings, in which he listed 6 things
or habits of no real importance. So funny and
charming.

Which made me think of "A Woman Of No
Importance", by Oscar Wilde, which opened in
London on April 19, 1893. "A Woman Of No Importance",
offering an insignificant list. It does seem right
to have a mannequin represent me.

1. I retain an enormous amount of useless
data. Mostly movie stuff. If anyone needs to
know the most arcane information, I will pull it
forth like a magician pulls a rabbit from a hat.

2. I was almost arrested by the
KGB. I was in Moscow, waiting in line to get
into a book store. People in Moscow stand in
line to buy a book of poetry. Really. I made it
into the shop, was approached by a young man
who tried to sell me rubles, I knew enough to say
absolutely nyet. Set-up!! KBG thugs in black coats
were beginning to surround poor little tourist,
getting ready to pounce, visions of Siberia dancing
in their heads. I smiled, shrugged, waved bye-bye.
They left in limo, I bought a book.

3. The waitresses in the cafe at the Athens Hilton

Hotel were absolutely convinced (by themselves) that

I was Nancy Sinatra. With my two kids in tow,

staying with friends at the hotel for the summer, nothing

I could say would convince them that I wasn't "Old Blue

Eye's" little girl. Every day brought giggles when we

entered the cafe, and they vowed to "keep my secret".

I should have sung for them, then they would have known

the truth.

4. I have to close the blinds at night even though

no one can look in because I'm too high up. You

never know, someone out there could have

binoculars. And it's sort of nice to let the sun shine

in, in the morning, when I want it to!

5. I eat a piece of chocolate every day.

Every day.

6. I have a new blog. Why have I thought

that this is necessary? I don't know. I'm not

doing much about it.

I'll tell you the name:

Minny Blue

I never tag because I don't like to put
anything on anyone. I'd love for anyone who wishes
to play this game to please do so. I think you've
learned a sufficient amount of info about me that's
unimportant! Things go round and round.
