Eight Things Out
Somebody who, if there was such a thing as too much fabulous, would be way too fabulous, but instead, since there isn’t such a thing, has just the right amount of fabulousity, tagged me for a meme I’ll call “Eight Things.”
Here are the rules:
Here are the rules:
- Post these rules before I give you the facts.
- Players start with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
- People who are tagged write their own blog post about their eight things and include these rules.
- At the end of the blog post, choose eight people to get tagged and list their names. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged and that they should read your blog.
I’m sorry, Bre, but I’ll be ignoring the tagging. If any of you want to play a long, leave a comment to that effect.
- I have never tasted even a single drop of light beer. Nor even lite beer.
- There is a beautiful old olive tree, about 75 years old, right outside my office window.
- I much prefer a watch with a dial and regular numbers to a digital watch or one with Roman numerals.
- I had toast today and did not drop either piece on the floor. I almost dropped the butter, though.
- When I was about 4 years old, I used to stare directly into the sun without blinking. I thought it was a cool thing to do. I still have nearly perfect vision.
- One of my favorite Xbox games is Burnout 3.
- Books are among my most treasured possessions.
- I think that if I tag people for a meme, they will be annoyed with me, even though I am usually rather flattered.
I think that covers it, don’t you?

I'm glad you understand the complex levels of my fabulosity! I usually don't tag folks, but the rules say you have to! And I tend to follow the rules unless I'm just about the last person to get tagged... at which point I'm out of options and I practice civil disobedience.
A man who ignores tagging rules AND who likes books? Oh Mrs. Lefty is a lucky woman indeed.
bre--yes, not everyone can comprehend such complex fabulousity; thanks for noticing.
brandy--I would add, modestly, that she is the luckiest woman on earth.
1. I own about 200+ xbox games.
2. One game I'm REALLY looking forward is called 'Mass Effect'{on xbox360}.
3."When I was about 4 years old, I used to stare directly into the sun without blinking. I thought it was a cool thing to do." I did the same, though I was older ~10.
4. I don't think I ever dropped toast butter side down.
5. I can easily lift 200 pounds.
6. I probably watch about 365 movies a year.
7. I pretty darn good at welding and casting many kinds of metals
8. I'm kinda surprised you actually play xbox games.
There I played along, though I didn't exactly follow the rules.
LOL!!! I get these a lot. I often ignore them.
But I'll play along for you.
1. I don't eat toast anymore since my low carb torture--er um diet began.
2. I used to want to be a Geologist....and I regret that didn't stick with me.
3. I've been known to play a computer game called "Vines" until my eyes are bloodshot.
4. I have, since they were dumb enough to let me vote, cast ballots for Green Party, Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, Independents and undeclared.
5. I love football.
6. I only own three pairs of shoes.....and one of them is a pair of cowboy boots.
7. My very first big name concert wasn't until I was 35. (I saw Brooks and Dunn)
8. I follow the rules and rebel in private.
I'm the same way with regard to tagging. I too stared at the sun when I was a tot and I have better than 20/20 vision (I was the only one in my eye doctors office to get a 5 our of 5 on the "small" line). I prefer dial watches, don't care what kind (if any) numbers it has.
xbox--I didn't even know there were 200 xbox games available (does that count 360, too?)
I usually play with my son, and we usually play shoot 'em ups.
jen mck--I wanted to be a wildlife biologist at one point, and sometimes wish I'd continued along that line.
g-man--it drives me a little nuts if there aren't any numbers on the dial.
There is over 1100 xbox games available and no I didn't count xbox360 games, but there is 527 available now.
Yeah, yeah. So the sun didn't burn out your eyes. But your BRAIN is still questionable. ;)
xbox--I don't even have a 360 yet!
tink--you're all heart.
I've noticed that the "cool kid" bloggers don't even do memes. Like they're soooo past it.
Me? I still need fodder.
