8 Random Facts

I've been tagged by Kate to post 8 random facts/habits about myself.

I did the 5 weird things about me awhile back so here are 8 random facts/habits to add to it:

1. I've kissed the blarney stone.

2. I hate public speaking, yet for every job I've ever had, I've had to do it. (except now)














3. I unconciously mimic the voice intonations of others when I am around them. Eg: when I am around my canadian cousins, I speak with a canadian accent. It drives my brother nuts.

4. I was barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen for a total of 3 years and 3 months of my life.

5. I can tie a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue.

6. I hate mushrooms and bleu cheese. I tried to overcome my hate for these and I ate a grilled portabello mushroom with bleu cheese recently. I threw up.

7. I can play chopsticks, heart and soul, and the theme from Love Story on the piano.

8. I used to take bubble baths with my cat Snickers. She would meow by the side of the tub until I plopped her in the water. Then she would purr. (She wouldn't wash my back though.) Now we have a dog and I can't get him near a tub without a fight.

There you have it.

I have seen so many of my blogging buddies tagged recently I am going to give the tagging a rest for a bit. If you'd like to play, post your 8 random things/habits to your blog and let me know!

You failed to mention that we drank a wee bit of wine with that blue cheese and mushroom. Hence, that is what gave you the courage to eat the blue cheese and mushroom.

#5 and #8 - Matt man is correct! Hopefully your brother will not read this, that would be wayyyy too much infornmation and would skeev him out.

Having followed a bit of your blog and postings...your brother sounds so cool! Gosh your lucky!!!
