Taggage

January 20, 2008

I was tagged a week ago.  But I had to find a day that I didn’t have anything to ramble on about. So here we go:

Thanks to Beartwinsmom at her blog, I’ve been tagged for the 7 Interesting Things about Me Meme. I’ve been tagged for this one before when it was an 8 things about you meme, but I’m too lazy today to figure out where it is.

So, here are the rules:
- Link to the person that tagged you and post the rules on your blog.
- Share 7 random and or weird things about yourself.
- Tag 7 random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs.
- Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

  1. I hated sugar as a kid.  On a flight with my bio dad when I was 3ish the attendant gave him jerky and me cookies.  I screamed bloody murder because I hated cookies.  He obviously didn’t know that cuz he hadn’t seen me since I was an infant.  I got my jerky.  He ate my cookies.
  2. My uncle and I were in kindergarten together. 
  3. In 1st grade I was the kid that gave everyone chicken pox.
  4. I have only been in 1 serious fight.  I beat the hell out of a girl in second grade because she called my mom a slut.  I didn’t even know my mom but I didn’t like her tone.
  5. I was raised by my grandparents from the time I was 3ish to about 12.  Theaters had germs.  So when I moved in with my bio dad I finally got to go to the theater and see my very first movie on the big screen:  Oliver and Company.
  6. I’ve had to do a sobriety test.  On the side of the road.  By a night club.  At night.  Because I didn’t turn my headlights on until after I pulled out of the parking space in a very well lit parking lot.  I passed.  I haven’t been out dancing, or drinking, since.
  7. I think my hubby knows this so I hope I’m not devastating him when he read this BUT I hated my wedding.  I wanted nothing more but to flee from it.  I don’t like being put on a pedestal.  I hate pictures.  The only good thing that I liked about it was staring into his eyes when we said our vows because the camera flashes and people melted away.  It was supposed to be about us but I didn’t feel like I could be me.  My mother did just about everything and she did it her way.  I tried to keep it small and simple but she felt that I “deserved” it.  I’m the only daughter and they adopted me so this was her dream.  The pictures afterward took too damn long.  People were leaving which sadly I was okay with.  I didn’t get to enjoy my food.  I didn’t get to enjoy my wedding cake.  I didn’t get to enjoy my guests.  I am soo happy I found the man that I will live the rest of my life with and is my bestest friend because I don’t want to ever get married or have another wedding again!!

And the 7 people I am tagging are:

Beautiful Blonde ~ my oldest girl

The Fire Breathing Brother ~ my oldest boy

And then there were two ~ cuz she is doing that crazy 365 post thing

Marla Baltes ~ cuz, well, I don’t know, just cuz :) (response)

Okaseneko Chronicles ~ cuz I’ve just recently met her and I’m curious to know more (response)

Our Life ~ I’ve emailed her a lot and she has lots of interesting stuff to say

and…

Wright Writes ~ cuz she hasn’t written since her anniversary and I want to make sure she hasn’t dropped off the planet ;-) (released per request…lol)
