8 Things

i'm still in Tulsa, taking a semi-vacay. well, minus the tropical drinks, laying on the beach all day and going somewhere that's actually fun. :-) hey, i did say semi, right? anyway, i actually didn't leave Houston until Sunday morning (i was just too exhausted to leave on Saturday), and was supposed to drive back to Houston this morning. but, yesterday morning, i had a dream about something that happened a few years ago and i decided it was best to stay here for a few more days. so, here i sit in my favorite free wi-fi place (don't say it, Ladynay!). i see everyone is doing this 8 Things meme and damn it, i wanna do it too! :-) it's been a loooong time since i did a meme and i like this one. so, here goes....


Rules:

1. We have to post these rules before we give you the facts.

2. Players start with eight random facts/habits about themselves.

3. People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.

4. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.

5. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

1. This is really strange, but i have a habit of counting the number of letters in words. i even take it so far as to then calculate the number of words in a paragraph. why or when i picked up this habit is beyond me. but, i suspect boredom plays a huge part in this behavior.
   
2. One of my new favorite past times is practicing my "teacher face" in the mirror. you all know the face i'm talking about. i have the "i can wait" look down, but i don't look mean enough.... yet. it's a work in progress.
3. i truly believe MySpace is the devil and as such refuse to get a MySpace account. (but, Facebook is ok.... :-))
4. I wear lipstick and/or tinted lip gloss every time i have to go out and see the public, even if it's just to go around the corner to the store.
5. i throughly enjoy listening to the conversations of complete strangers, esp. when it appears drama is involved. people are a trip more often than not and it's fun to see/hear what other people deem important enough to talk about in public.
6. i have an excellent memory. so much so that i sometimes find myself pretending i don't remember something so people won't get weirded out by what i manage to recall.
   
7. i like trying different cuisines, but i don't necessarily prefer to go out to eat.
   
8. although my recent activities/life decisions may indicate otherwise, i really do look forward to settling down in one city, getting married, having a few kids, and all that jazz.
   

ok, ya'll know i don't tag people. so, it's up to you if you want to do this meme or not.

until next time...
