The Truth Comes Out!

I know you're all just dying to know the truth from my "Creative Writing" post, so okay, here it is. Sadly, I cannot communicate telepathically with fish, chickens, or anything else. Bummer. Also a bummer is that I have never been to Mars. The Lehi Roller Mills were in the movie Footloose. I, however, was not. I was never a cheerleader, though my sister was. That same sister also loves to sew and does it well. I, on the other hand, would rather gnaw off my own fingers than sew anything. I do think platypuses are cool and I'd love to see one in real life someday, but my very favorite animal, as my children would tell you, is the giraffe. Which leaves the truth. My husband and I were introduced by a felon who later went on the lam. He was guilty of identity theft against the guy he claimed was his best friend. What a creep! When he was found out, he fled the country. That guy really was a bald-faced liar. You couldn't believe two words that came out of his mouth. But, my hubby and I do owe him a debt of gratitude for bringing us together. Here we are on our wedding day. (Yeah, I've got my tongue out.)
 

So thanks, Steve, for doing at least one good thing in your life.

Thanks to everyone who commented and tried to guess. I had fun with this. Thanks again, Danyelle and Jackee for tagging me!

Cute picture and you did a great job of lying - this is the one I thought couldn't be true.
