I had another meme tee'd up as a draft post, but didn't want to push it out just yet. But just today, one of my new bloggosphere friends, Heather, tagged me with a meme today. I feel honored to have been tagged, so here I go with another meme.
Here are the rules of the Meme:
- Link to the person that tagged you and post the rules on your blog (DONE!).
- Share 7 random and/or weird facts about yourself.
- Tag 7 random people at the end of your post, and include links to their blogs.
- Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
1: I was an AFS exchange student the summer between my sophomore and junior years in high school.
2: I am an introvert. I love people but I prefer non-verbal, non-contact interaction (i.e., email, IM, blogging, etc) versus verbal/contact interaction (going out with large groups of people, spending hours on the phone, etc.). I will email or IM someone all day, but I have trouble having a personal phone conversation longer than about 15 minutes.
3: I tend to get bored easily.
4: I'm very superstitious. I have certain rituals I repeat when I do things like run a road race, get on an airplane, etc. The repetition of these rituals always makes me feel better and more in control.
5: I have 5748 songs in my iTunes collection, and 1668 of those are country or bluegrass, which means about 30% of my collection is country.
6: I love fruitcake.
7: I don't fear being dead, but I am afraid of what will happen to me during the process of dying.
So, that's that. Who will I tag? Uh...well, I've kinda been tagging the regulars with memes lately, and I don't have a ton of blog friends yet, so here goes:
Rinz (my niece)
Dan (who is always a good sport)
Mike M
Wes (an absolute ROCK STAR over on Cre8Buzz)
Sue (er, sorry if I already tagged u this week I don't remember...)
Taj Wanders
Snowelf (ditto--in fact, she may have already done this one)
Whew...there. Enjoy. And if you don't like being tagged sorry...but try it, even if you just did a meme like 5 seconds ago, because they're fun. (C:
More later...

Thanks for sharing Jim! It's a fun way to get to know your blogging buddies, isn't it? I'm curious what country your AFS experience was in...?
Hi Heather...and thank YOU for tagging me on this. I agree it's cool to share and to get to know one another better. I haven't been doing this long, but have met some great people...
RE: my AFS experience, I lived in Greece. Specifically, a town called Patras. It was a very memorable experience!
Jim
Thanks! I heart memes of all shapes and sizes! I don't recall another tag.. did I miss one? I'll have this up tomorrow!
Um...
...okay....
maybe you won't believe this, but ironically, I DID just do a meme before I came here. It's a Christmas one where I got tagged by Cooper!
Too funny, Jim!!

Thanks for the tag Jim. I actually did this one a few times, but you know what? I will do it again because I have a lot of wired things HA. I'll let you know when it's done.
La Chanson, it might be that I was having a "senior moment." Glad I tagged u on this one, and will head over to see your reply.
Snow, of COURSE I believe you and it's yet another ironic coincidence... HA HA!
Mike thanks for being a good sport and playing this again!
Done! Mine is at:
