Me

I know, I know...it's been a while. What can I say I'm a working-stay-at-home-mom now, or a full-time part-time working mom...not much time for blogging. Anyway, duty calls...I got memed. Angela tagged me (see her definition here); love the woman, can't get enough of her and those kiddies, but unfortunately I rarely get to see them with my new schedule, and for that and others I don't see regularly, I'm truly sorry. MUST get together soon!


Back to the meme; here are the rules:

(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 by linking to their blogs. **Taking the liberty to revise the # to 3.
(5) Let them know they're tagged by leaving a comment.


#1) I'm tone deaf. No, really. In junior high school the choir teacher actually asked me to lip sync during performances. And that was even AFTER I took private lessons from her! Anyway, my husband lets me sing in his ear and says it's beautiful; my girls like it too!


#2) I'm freakishly good with math. No, not multiplying big numbers in my head, but tough stuff like calculus. I took "differential equations" a few years ago at OSU and aced the class. It just made sense one day...freaked me out too.


#3) Even though I am in a creative career I can not accessorize myself to save my life! I look to my sisters for guidance, inspiration, etc. I wonder if they notice at work that I wear the same necklace almost every other day...my black one always seems like a safe choice.

#4) I told my mother that I never wanted to be an interior designer, that I thought it was a silly, frivolous job. I would be an architect, at least, like my dad and make lives better by designing structures verses decorating. Oh now naive.... I love my career, and currently I am making lives better designing a cancer center.

#5) I used to be a D in college...now a B! Maybe non-important fact, but very devastating to me. (I know TMI, but I can't help it!)

#6) I could sustain on cheeseburgers alone. My all-time favorite food, and maybe a perfect meal with lettuce, tomato + condiments. I love them so much my parents made me a cheeseburger Halloween costume made of foam-rubber. There was a hole in the middle where I stepped in and wore it around me. Since then it was been to numerous Jimmy Buffet concerts by my family, and always a big hit!



Ok, I'm tagging my sister, Lisa, Courtney, and Jenn. You're it!

Wow - you know what? Even as your sister I didn't know some of that stuff! Cheeseburgers? And I always thought your accessories were done so well!

That's funny about the cheeseburger because your Uncle Cannie also rationalized that it included all the nutrition groups, so it was a balanced meal - and that's all he ate! Plus, he also wouldn't let different foods touch each other and it only ate one at a time - like finished one food group before eating the other! Oh well, its just a "trait"! Oh, and you always look professional! Your mother was never a fashion queen! Sorry!
