Random Facts About Me…
I was tagged by Heather of Desperately Seeking Sanity. Thanks…I think.
Here are the rules. Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. People who are tagged need to write on their own blog about the seven things and the rules. You need to choose seven people to tag and list their names. Don’t forget to leave them a comment that they have been tagged and to read your blog!
7 Random Facts About Me…
1. I once broke down in South Hackensack, NJ with a pregnant lady, a man at his wits end, a lilac point Siamese (being delivered to Boston) and was forced to stay in a hotel that rented by the hour on Christmas none-the-less. I was 8 and the pregnant lady was my mom, the man at his wits end was my step-father, the lilac point Siamese was Kiko (my grandmother’s new cat) and for the life of me I can’t remember the motel’s name. Needless to say I was scarred for life by this experience. The only restaurant open on Christmas was the Chinese restaurant that had NO POWER so we dined on pea pods by candle light. I think my parents shielded me from the horrors of the rent-by-the-hour-seediness.
2. I’m in the process of writing a cookbook, complete with my own recipes, no regurgitation here. I love to cook and I’m darn good at it too, now if only the Food Network would pick me up.
3. The most embarrassing thing I’ve ever done…I sucked the big toe of a radio disc jockey for 2 tickets to an Aerosmith concert.
1. I was young (20)
2. I was stupid (again…20)
3. Yes, the big toe was clean
4. Believe it or not, my snotty cat has his own blog called The Life of a Cat and he’s actually pretty funny. He’s bugging me for a MySpace profile and his own line of “Craptacular Cat Litter”.
5. I adopted an EXTROVERT child at birth who challenges me to step out of my comfort zone each and every day. He can make friends at the grocery store or on the street and even invites strangers and vagrants to our house. Like two weeks ago we went for a walk. Boy was talking to said stranger for about 3 blocks. Next thing I know said stranger is following us up the stairs to our apartment. HELLO! DUDE! Boy is 5 and just making conversation. Out darn spot out I say! I think everyone is now privy to where we live.
6. I wanted to be a nun until I was 9. Yes I’m being serious. Then I was told that I would never have a boyfriend, have sex or have a baby, so I changed my mind and wanted to be the next Dr. Ruth. Truth be told, I think I wanted to get a rise out of the nuns…it worked.
7. My BFF is Celiac so I started researching the disease and came across some very interesting information which made me wonder if I too suffered from a sensitivity to wheat. I made the switch to a wheat free/gluten free lifestyle. So far in two weeks I’ve lost 15 pounds, I have more energy and ummm….hmmmm…..my “IBS” has just about disappeared.
Now I have to pick seven? Come on people, I’m introverted and live in a box. Hmmm, who are the lucky ones?

* Rose @ Expert Business Results
* Dale @ Dale’s Ramblings
* Lisa @ Potty Prayers

I’m a rule breaker by nature, so I’m doing just five.
