    Some things I’ve done that you probably haven’t

    By ella | March 7, 2005

    I’ve seen this all over the place. I’ve no idea where it started or whom to give credit to for it. I’m also way behind everyone posting it, but that just sums up my life really. So, ten things I’ve done that you probably haven’t (fifteen actually - you’ll see I’m going for quantity over quality here):

    1) Known one of Princess Diana’s bridesmaids

    2) Known one of the Queen’s nieces
    OK I’m cheating. This is the same person as above.

    3) Been caned
    At school. Completely Victorian. Some might argue that in another situation they might actually have enjoyed it….

    4) Won a holiday to Australia
    And then fell in love with the diving instructor.

    5) Bought a house not a million miles away from Madonna
    But we haven’t bumped into each other in the local shop yet.

    6) Given birth to a ten pound baby (OK so some of you might have done this)
    It hurt though, so I’m including it.

    7) Chosen to live in Alabama of my own free will
    If you’re from Alabama, don’t get on your high horse. I loved it there.

    Eight) Had a song written about me

    9) Been interviewed by the police, along with my two flatmates, when it was discovered that the two girls in the flat downstairs were working as prostitutes
    And when I say interviewed, I mean they were thinking we were prostitutes too.

    10) Taken an overdose as a baby and had my stomach pumped

    11) Worked for a national newspaper
    And left when it was clear that most of the people that worked there were only interested in sh*gging each other.

    12) Eaten cake with a Hollywood actress
    Well not exactly, but I’ve already written about this.

    13) Fantasised about marrying Sting as a teenager
    But then when I met him, I couldn’t manage to say a single intelligible word. He’d have married me otherwise, I’m sure…

    14) Prepared a room in my house in case of nuclear attack
    I’m so not kidding about this one.

    15) Learnt to speak fluent Latin
    I could definitely seduce Jamie Lee Curtis in A Fish Called Wanda with my Latin skills.
    I’ve no doubt I’ll be writing about some of this stuff when my family don’t provide me with anything interesting to blog about. I bet you can’t wait.
