I was tagged by Caroline and Elizabeth.
Rules: Once you’ve been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 16 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 16 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it’s because I want to know more about you.
1. I am easily distracted.
2. I have a sordid past.
3. I was born in Dayton, Ohio.
4. I rarely wear makeup.
5. I died my hair light bright red after my divorce.
6. I rarely leave my house.
7. I am still waiting for the magic thin pill.
8. When I was young, there were things I wanted to be, but not things I wanted to do. When I got older, and there were things I wanted to do, they were difficult things that everybody wants to do, and I wasn’t pretty or tenacious enough to do them.
9. My favorite place on earth is my bed. If you could see and lay in my bed, you’d know why!
10. I am thinking about getting a cat.
11. I would be thrilled to be debt-free by 50, but it’ll probably be 51 1/2. Unless something goes wrong, then all bets are off.
12. My husband is way smarter than I am.
13. I envy my friend Bettina. I don’t envy many people, but I envy her.
14. My younger son has a new hobby - memorizing the lyrics to Weird Al Yankovic songs. He also can sing “American Pie” all the way through.
15. I wish there was a group I could sing with here. I’m thinking of going Methodist, just to be able to sing.
16. Sometimes, if I have the choice between sex and sleep, I choose sleep. But not very often, because you can ALWAYS do both.

A magic thin pill huh? Let me know when you find it, please.
Ditto on the thin pill. Maybe our need for a thin pill comes from our love of our beds! My bed was on my list of 16 also.
I think you owe us one more. Number 14 is about little boy and not you. Maybe number 12 is more about C. than about you too!
Why do you envy your friend Bettina?
Mr C is from a place very near to Dayton, OH.
I envy Bettina because she is goal oriented and strong and smart and successful. The success followed goal oriented and strong and smart.
I think the goal-oriented is the big difference maker between her and me. She defines her target and hits it.
ha. What Ann doesn’t see is that Bettina actually suffers from a personality disorder which results in the overproduction of targets and goals. And regarding the hitting of targets set, well even a blind pig finds an apple from time to time.
A random thing that I know about Ann is that she was reading Tolstoy in the seventh grade. For fun. So don’t let her try to tell you about how much smarter other people are than she is.
Bits, what are you doing on the internet? You aren’t due back for four more days!
I love making plans. I just lack follow through. Planning is fun. Doing is …oooh, shiny!
I snuck back into the country last night. (shhh dont tell)
I know all about distractions. For example, here I am trying to go through 1000 photographs and get at least a few of them posted online today. But instead I’m reading blogs.
