Yes, I have finally succumbed to the lure of the Ten Things list meme.

This is really hard when your long-time SO/spouse is on your friends list....

Ten things I've done that I don't think anyone on my friends list has done:
1. Visited the cockpit of Concorde, in flight, at Mach 2.
2. Been quoted on the front page of the Wall Street Journal (above the fold).
3. Repeated a grade in school, then six years later skipped two grades (in the same school district).
4. Spent a year and a half commuting to a different school district that wasn't even adjacent to the one I lived in (in between the repeat and skipping incidents).
5. Graduated high school with an official class rank of "0".
6. Taken 4 AP tests in 3 days, scoring two 4s and two 5s. (This is the one I consider most likely to be matched or beaten.)
7. Broken three bones in my foot jumping off a 4' high chain-link fence.
8. Lived in the same town for 10 years while in an active-duty military family.
9. Ridden in a Boeing 929 Jetfoil.
10. Been a co-author on a paper in Nature.

In other news, my Boskone reports are up over at [livejournal.com profile] dirac_angestun: Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

Hm. Active duty family. I'm guessing it's some specialized skill that tied the officer to a particular base?
