Random Facts

LetsPlant of A Yard in Fort Pierce has tagged me for this Random Facts meme, and even though he called me “nice” I suppose I will play along…

The Rules:

• Link to the person who tagged you
• Post the rules on your blog
• Write six random things about yourself
• Tag six people at the end of your post linking to their blog
• Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog
• Let the tagger know when your entry is up.

My six random facts:

1. I do not like things pointing at me (particularly sharp things, ie. table knives, scissors) and I will move them so they do not point at me. Husband thinks this is hilarious. I think it is just common sense!
2. I’d rather read than do almost anything else. I’ve been in books that have made me forget what day it was, forget to eat, forget to sleep.
3. I carry this Walther PPK/S pistol in a belt holster when I leave the house. I’m not paranoid, I am prepared. Huge difference.
4. I want nothing more from life at this point than to chuck all material goods (except my camera and all the computers), and live on a chunk of land raising flowers, food, kids and various four-foots. Less to dust, you see.
5. I drive a Honda Element, have driven one since they rolled off the line back in 2003, and will probably always drive one…not only because it has ultra-cool “suicide” doors, and not only because it has super easy-to-clean plastic floors…but mainly because it saved our lives once. The day after that wreck, we also traded in the Husband’s commuter Civic for another Element.
6. I keep my toenails painted silver. Oh, I have dozens of other colors, but silver is apparently what I should see when I look down. I wear two silver toe rings, too, have since we moved here to Florida. I like to think this doesn’t make me “eccentric” but you never can tell.

And now for the the tag-ees:

1. Caitlin of Bookgoblin
2. Coriander of Eat My Yard
3. WG of Wicked Gardener
4. Joan of Primordial Slack, because it will vex her 🙂
5. Phillip of Dirt Therapy, from my old stomping grounds in North Alabama
6. And even though she won’t do it, A of Musable

Have fun kids!
