A Meme

January 31st, 2008 · 6 Comments

Jamie over at Ad Silvam Ibimus tagged me for this meme.

The rules for this meme are: (1) Link to the person that tagged you. (2) Post the rules on your blog. (3) Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself. (4) Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs. (5) Let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.

Ok let’s see:

1.  I could eat Marie’s Blue Cheese dressing with just about anything.  I think the USDA should make it its own food group!

2.  I spent my junior year in high school in Brazil as an exchange student.

3.  I love Jane Austen books and movies - I re-read “Pride and Prejudice” at least once a year.

 4.  I adore professional baseball - I could watch it for hours on end!!!

5.  As a kid, I once ate an entire stick of pepperoni and then denied all knowledge of it.  I think I might have had my parents convinced that they never really bought one.  I know that being a thief and a liar is nothing of which to be proud but it does make me chuckle to think of how it now!!!

6.   I am a huge sci-fi fan - Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, Doctor Who, Star Trek (in its many forms), etc.

Ok and I tag: Alice, Michele, Mary Alice, Lindsay, Mary Ellen, and Joann.
