Tidbits

Gropius was kind enough to share 10 things about herself that we might not know and then give me a shout out on her blog to do the same.

I did something similar to this about a year ago so I’ll try not to repeat myself.

1. I’m lousy at video games. I gave up after failed attempts at Asteroids, Space Invaders, and Pac-Man.

2. I should have been an interior designer.

3. I have a routine (ritual) for making tea and it relaxes me.

4. In English Lit class in high school, I used to read ahead.

5. I enjoy dry, witty, British humor.

6. My husband is the only man to ever tell me that he was initially attracted to my smile NOT my red hair.

7. I probably know way too much about Wolverine, Batman, Star Trek, Star Wars, sci-fi movies in general, James Bond, and Operation Market Garden.

8. As a child, I did not like the color pink. Now that I have two boys, I have lots of pink things so they won’t use them… my iPod, phone, lunch bag, water bottle, etc..

9. I’m friends with my college boyfriend on FaceBook.

10. The 2 rods and 6 screws in my back DO NOT set off the metal detectors at the airport.

Now the rules state that I should pass this on to 10 other bloggers. But I’m not going to do that for two reasons:

First, I don’t think I know 10 bloggers without overlapping with the list Gropius sent out. Second, it reminds me too much of a chain letter.

Great list. And I am feeling great about our growing friendship since I do know a few of these items about you! Glad to hear that your hubby didn't mention the red hair first. Mine told me that he's always HATED red heads! Funny, b/c so many of my friends have red hair too. What is it with that?

I always read ahead, all thru school. I still do; in fact, I already read your next post.
And I hear you on #7!

Always read ahead, too. Not too much into sci-fi tho, but I suck at video games. My husband tells me that redheads rock (I am NOT a rehead, so I guess I don't rock!). I cannot believe you don't set off the metal detectors!

Operation Market Garden is my fault. I, however, have nothing to do with the rest of #7.

Great list! I'm totally with you on #5, it's great!
