I'm it!!

So apparently there is a game of tag out there in the blogsphere, and I have been caught by Donna! The game is to tell 5 things about yourself that people don't know, and then tag 5 more people to do the same. Unfortunately, I am generally pretty transparent, so I don't know what people don't already know...and the things they don't know, I'm pretty sure I don't want to post on the internet. So here goes.

1) Copying Donna here...if I was a boy I would have been named Benjamin. How stately...

2) My first pet, other than fish, was a guinea pig. His name was Donald. I loved him. He would squeal incessantly when he heard apples being sliced cause he would know he was about to get a core. He died the year we moved to Oregon at the ripe old age of 7. It was very sad when apples would get sliced and there was silence...

3) 7 is a good number. I know someone else who thinks so too. I was 7 when I got my ears pierced. I was really excited that day, I wore a pink dress and everything. I picked out pink earrings...but when the woman stapled my ear, they were yellow! I was not happy about that. But it turns out yellow is a good color too. Ask Yellow Wolley :)

4) I didn't learn to ride a bike til I was 8. I guess 8 is not such a good number. My parents bought me a BMX bike that was way too big for me, when I was 5. So they put training wheels on it. I hated it cause it was a boys bike! But the boys across the street were jealous. When I was eight I realized that biking could be fun, so I learned to ride :)

5) I have slightly pointed ears...kinda Vulcan if you ask me. It's true...take a closer look some time. :)

Ok, that was fun, turned out mostly to be random childhood memories, but hey, that's ok. Now you're it:

Bridget
Andrea
Kristi
Sarah
Elizabeth

You can run but you can't hide!

  1. On your evite it says that Wes is ready to party and shop. If Wes bought a librarian action figure while doing serious shopping-I shudder to think what he will buy during party shopping. Especially if there are certain "beverages" involved. Be afraid. Very afraid.

  3. I have wonderful memories standing in your kitchen at your last home, screaming hideously in some sort of wild fit over the realization that you, too, thought the number seven was OBVIOUSLY in direct correlation to the color yellow (as if there were no other possibility of an answer). All the while, Wes sat calmly in the next room, watching the Simpsons.

  4. Just a fit of randomness.
    Napkin=Cozy's and you trying to score extra napkins from the waitress. :)

    At an rate, perhaps we should ask Sportsbasement to lock up the pink arm warmers in case Wes is inspired. :) Or worse yet, Judith talks you into them. She is on a quest for pink biking tights.
