tagged.

so MONICA of i just want the tattoo tagged me last night and, being the bored-at-work-with-nothing-to-do type that i am, i figured i might as well play along.

SO... the rules apparently are...

-- Link to the person who tagged you (done and done. see above.)
-- Post the rules on your blog. (check.)
-- Share seven random and/or weird facts about yourself on your blog. (because there's not already enough weirdness about me that you all know?)
-- Tag seven random people at the end of your post, and include links to their blogs. (seven seems like a lot.)
-- Leave a comment on their blogs so that they know they have been tagged. (again... seven seems like a lot.)


so without further ado i give you...

seven random things you didn't already know.

about me.

1.) i absolutely will not under any circumstances drink Pepsi. not ever. won't do it. it's gross.

2.) i'm picky. i'm a picky picky eater. i don't like trying new-there's a good chance i won't like it-food. however, much to the shagrin of my mom... i will try new food for boys.
boys that are cute, that i like, that i'm on a date with or dating. for example...

with architecture guy it was swordfish.
with carpool guy it was asparagus.
with texas boy it was crawfish.
with painter dude it was sweet potatoes.

so yeah. i have a thing with food.

what else is new?!

3.) i have a weird phobia of drive thru banking. i've never done it. it scares me. everytime i consider it i start thinking i'll hit the wrong button, put the wrong thing in the little capsule and the ladies in the bank will yell at me. at that point my nerves get the better of me, i change my mind, park the car, and walk inside.

4.) i used to be scared of driving up to fast food places too. something about ordering through a screen, handing money through a window... it was too much.
until my freshman year of college, when i had a car-full of friends with me, who refused to go inside to order, i'd never done the drive thru thing.

it wasn't until about a month later, when on a midnight wendy's food-run for architecture guy and his fellow studio-mates that i had to do drive thru again... alone, that i finally conquered my fear.

(not surprisingly however, i did have issues with that first solo run. something about coupons, burgers, and kids meals....
who knows.)

5.) i sleep diagonally across my bed.

6.) i can't cross my eyes. neither can my mom. it's cuz the muscle in one of our eyes isn't strong enough. so when i try.. only the left one goes in.

see?!

7.) when i tap my fingers, i go from pointer to pinkie, instead of the other way around. to my knowledge, that's not how everyone else does it.

aaaaaaand that's all i got. seven random things about me.

so now ya know!

You ARE weird!

Okay- I tried the reverse finger tapping...it doesn't work on my fingers. Are you left handed?

This is my favorite list of random things ever. You are crazy. But in a very good way :)

i don't understand the eye deal. does that mean you always have to turn your head to the left if you want to see something over there with both eyes? does it mean you can only "glance" to the left with one eye?

that's weird.

Ya, I can't do the finger tapping thing either. And I'm left handed, so there goes that theory.

FYI... no. i'm not left handed.

also? NOOO i don't have to turn my head to look see something with both eyes you nincompoop. oy. i just can't cross both my eyes at the same time!

*sigh*

good ol j. i will hurt you.

i'll bring my gag ball and shackles. it'll be awesome.

so i can't cross my eyes and a nice weblog!.
Groet Rinus.

i look just like your cross-eyed picture when i've had too many margaritas.

i wont drink pepsi either!!! no way, no how! if you dont have diet coke, bring me water or ice tea. blech.

and i wont go INTO a bank. and i really hate that most grocery stores have banks inside now. thankfully there near chateau ghetto the oldest Kroger known to man doesnt have one. Score!!

The one eye thing is much better then the double cross. Trust me, I have a few cousins that make that face all the time...wait, I don't think they are trying to make that face. Huh.

Hey, I just wanted to tell you that I love your site! I came across it through the now-dormant-yet-still-classic "26.2 miles versus Naomi," and you are inspiring me to actually attempt the stupid 10 Mile Cherry Blossom Run I signed up for...

So, favor to ask. I'm going to link to your running blog on mine, because you are just that cool. Do you think you might take a look at mine and, if you think it has potential, link back to me? It is called Still Waiting for the Runner's High, available at http://stillwaitingfortherunnershigh.blogspot.com ... I want people to read about my trials and tribulations and give me support in the comments but that will only happen if the popular kids like you link to me. :-)

Whatever you decide, you are going on my blog and I will keep on reading... and running!

You know, the diagonal thing and the boy issues might just be related. I'm just sayin'

wow... all very interesting and unique! :)

The only way I'd ever drink Pepsi is if I was dying of thirst and there was NOTHING else around, and even then if it wasn't ice, ice cold I still couldn't!!

I'm super picky about food too. Even boys won't tend to make me try things, although once in a great, great while I will for one...

I tap my fingers the same way...

Wow...we are so alike...scary!!
