| Lo Fun Fact #1 |
| "Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. To this day, she has no idea what a "Lolita" is. |
| Lo Fun Fact #2 |
| I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes. If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Mr. Chicken (my favorite spot in Cleveland) and a pair of
Christian Louboutins. |
| Lo Fun Fact #3 |
| Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi (preferably Pepsi Jazz Caramel Cream). Better yet, how about not show up at all? |
| Lo Fun Fact #4 |
| I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? |
| Lo Fun Fact #5 |
| I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!! |
| Lo Fun Fact #6 |
| I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position. |
| Lo Fun Fact #7 |
I have four five wonderful, slap-happy dogs and a bird (some kind of dove/pigeon mix), all of whom I love to pieces. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs and bird, we'll be instant friends. If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five dogs and a bird, see the above fun fact for how I will respond. |

 Besides possibly guaranteeing myself a gang-banging of the most unwelcome kind, here's yet another reason for me not to get raw and rowdy with a guy in front of my furry crew. CNN.com reports on a pet parrot in the UK who busted up an obviously already-shaky relationship with his snitchy chatter.
 The bird, whose name is Ziggy, obviously couldn't keep what he'd seen and heard to himself:
The African grey parrot kept squawking "I love you, Gary" as his owner, Chris Taylor, sat with girlfriend Suzy Collins on the sofa of their shared flat in Leeds, northern England.
But when Taylor saw Collins's embarrassed reaction, he realized she had been having an affair -- meeting her lover in the flat whilst Ziggy looked on, the UK's Press Association reported.
Ziggy even mimicked Collins's voice each time she answered her telephone, calling out "Hiya Gary," according to newspaper reports.
Call-center worker Collins, 25, admitted the four-month affair with a colleague called Gary to her boyfriend and left the flat she had shared with Taylor, 30, for a year.
Taylor said he had also been forced to part with Ziggy after the bird continued to call out Gary's name and refused to stop squawking the phrases in his ex-girlfriend's voice, media reports said.
"I wasn't sorry to see the back of Suzy after what she did, but it really broke my heart to let Ziggy go," he said.
"I love him to bits and I really miss having him around, but it was torture hearing him repeat that name over and over again. Hmmm...I also have a bird. A very sweet, fanatically loyal white-and-grey dove (or pigeon, whodafuck knows what it is) that I rescued two years ago. His name is B-Bird (I'm so friggin' clever...and yes, y'all, it's Wild Kingdom up in this piece.)
 B-Bird is pretty cool and quite smart, although he can get a little noisy at times. Not that often. Only when I get phone calls or if there's bad singing on tv. He apparently, however, loves Cyndi Lauper, because she was just on The View singing her beautiful classic hit, Time After Time...
 ...and he was positively enthralled, bobbing his head in silence to the beat. Seriously. He does that.
B-Bird's cage is very near my bed. Fortunately, he can't talk, so he can't tell anyone what he sees (or doesn't see) going on in my bedroom.
But if he ever thought about it, I'd politely remind him of the name of my last book...
And that, I believe, would be the end of that.
