I have been caught in the inescapable pull of the gravimetric singularity that is the receive a number and edify the world about yourself game. I was given the number nine by my lovely eternal partner, Mariah Green. So, world, here it goes. Nine Things You May or May Not Know About Brandon J. Green 1) I am extremely stubborn. If you know me, you already know this. However, contrary to what some may think, I am not obstinate about what I think I am right about but what is RIGHT. I will fight for the right and I will not be swayed by the masses. Even when I am faced with trial and adversity and the path of truth is hard and everyone around me is doing the easy thing and life generally sucks and people I care about tell me to just do the easy thing, I don’t. It’s tempting. And I want to; oh, how I want to. But I have made a promise that I refuse to take back. So I drive on. 2) I try not to kill bugs (except spiders; they can all die slow painful deaths). To the contrary; when I find them inside, I do what I can to rescue them and release them outside. I feel that if God spent enough time to create them, I should love them, too, right? 3) That being said, I HATE SPIDERS. If Heavenly Father was capable of mistakes, it would have been either them or giving me the terrible animosity I feel toward them. And by animosity I mean screaming like a little girl for one of my Soldiers to save me every time I see one. Yeah. Big Bad SGT Green. Mnn-Hmm… 4) Kellen Moore is the only reason I no longer make fun of the Lions. I love Boise State football (if that’s a surprise, you either live under a rock or have never talked to me/ looked at my wall). 5) I am terrified to go back to school. Since my injury I’ve had a lot of memory and cognitive issues. I used to be kind of intelligent, now not so much. I don’t think I can go back to my former major, (biological physics) which is a major bummer. But I’m going to do it anyway. Because I owe it to my wife. I owe it to my future patients. And, by golly, I owe it to me. 6) I am an awful dancer. No, awful isn’t fair. Deplorable? Horrendous? Abominable? Offensive? I think you get the point. I learned a simple waltz for my wedding and I even messed that up. In my rude-boy days however, CJ Miller and I used to skank like champs. Just sayin’. 7) My first cat was named Jynxies (Jynx for short). She was so named because in her early life, she was bit in the face by a dog (almost dying), trapped in a window with my little brother’s screaming head (long story) and swung in a circle, resulting in a dislocated hip and concussion. She was pretty epic. 8 ) I love to write (if you can’t tell from reading this). This leads to problems with me giving too long of answers, both in the written and spoken medium. I am oft told that “wax verbose” (no joke, those exact words, more than once, by more than one person and I loved it). I also have an issue using archaic words that no one believes are real words. It sucks. 9) I have a severe case of A.D.O.S. (Attention Deficit… OOOOO SHINY!) which led to this post taking almost an hour to generate. As a matter of fact, during the number eight, I had no less than three “shiny” moments, prompting me to add A.D.O.S. as my final submission. There you have it world, nine long winded facts about me. I hope you all feel “closer” to me by anonymously reading about me through the cold mode of the interwebs. Fare thee well.
