    8 Things About Me

    My internet friend Shell tagged me with this the other day, and I’m just now finally getting to it….the rules are:

    Each person posts the rules before their lists, then lists 8 things about themselves.  At the end of the post that person lists 8 other people they want to tag, then visits each of their sites leaving a comment that they have been tagged & to come to your space & read the post so they will know what to do.

    I’m not going to tag anyone back, but I’ll play too:

    1) I was totally stressed out the week before last and smoked 2 cigarettes.  They were REALLY GOOD, but then they made me throw up.   That was the first time I’d smoked since my son Eric was born, August 7, 1998.  (I got rid of the smokes, but I have decided that I’m allowed to smoke one every 5 years.  Next time I’m allowed is July of 2013)

    2) I get really nervous in social situations, people think I’m stuck up, but I just freak out when I have to talk to people.  I probably should see a psychiatrist or something, but it would be too embarrassing.

    3) I graduated college with a 2.3 GPA.  I’m glad I didn’t go to a hard college, because I would have flunked out.

    4) The contract my customer has ends in May of 2010.  I have to decide what I want to do after that’s over.  I don’t really want to leave where I work, because its cool, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to find something interesting to do. 

    5) When I was a kid, I wanted to be an astronaut.  I still do.

    6) If I could change one thing about me, I’d either want to be more of an extrovert, or creative. 

    7) I hate listening to kid music, so I play rock and roll in the car.  Izzy’s favorite song is “Head Like a Hole” by Nine Inch Nails, and Jake’s is “Get a Haircut (and Get A Real Job)” by George Thorogood.

    8) There is no #8.

    Well, I’ll tag TWO people: 1) Joelle, because she’s been gone for so long, I need something to remember her by and 2) Jim, because he’s the guy who got me to start blogging.

    Bill, I know what you mean with number 2.  I worked for over 35 years in jobs where I had to be a people person.  I never was comfortable with it.  But I put on a happy face and moved forward so no one would know. 
    I think you should play Willie in the car so your kids can get used to some really classy music.
