May 6, 2008
lastcrazyhorn from Odd One Out tagged me for the 5 Things Meme. I haven’t gotten to do this one yet. I love memes
5 Things in My Bag
My glasses
Toothbrush and Toothpaste
Pill Box
Carmex
5 Favorite Things in My Room
My weiner dog
My laptop
My treadmill
and my bed
5 Things I Don’t Do Anymore
Date losers (cuz I married a winner
Starve myself
Go to church (explanation post )
Wet the bed
5 Favorite Flower
Technically, I’m supposed to tag 5 people but I can’t do it. I’m home in bed in pain (damn cyst). So if there are five readers who want to take this on please do so. Just leave a comment to where you blogged it in my comments so others can follow the trail.
Gracias mi amigas :0)

Ugh, sorry about the cyst. Have you tried those menthol patches? I gave one to a friend with the what sounds like the same problem and they seemed to really help a lot.
I have never heard of them. I need to check into that.
