Tagged


Well, I have been tagged by Kathi. I don't usually do things like this, but I enjoyed hearing all the funny and different things about her, so I'll try it.

So, random and/or weird. . . hmm. . .


1. So, you have heard of adrenaline-junkies. I am not sure what the exact opposite of that is, but I am it. If it was in the dictionary, my picture would be by it. Anything that is a little scary and gets your blood pumping gets my worry-wart brain going and just freaks me out. My poor husband has found that out the hard way with his love of jeeping. After a few years of marriage, I am getting better and at our last Moab trip, I drove for a mile. That was HUGE. You think he had caught a 50-pound fish by how proud he was of me!

2. I have never been skiing. I live in a state that has the best snow, or so the license plate says, but I have never been. My friend Brenna hurt her knee the first time she went skiing, maybe that plays into it. . .

3. I snore, or so my husband says. I am not sure that I believe him, but if he is right, then that is weird.

4. I went white-water rafting while I was 2 1/2 months pregnant. Amazingly, I was less sick on the trip than at home. Maybe the seasick movement and already being sick is like two negatives equaling a positive. Lots of fun and glad I went, but will probably not do it again.

5. I have a bad memory. I have few childhood memories, not because I didn't have a great childhood, but because I just plain don't remember. In fact, if you make me upset, give me 10 minutes and I forget why I was upset. The downside is that if I make you mad, in 10 minutes I will probably make you even more mad because I forgot why I made you upset.

6. To refute number 5, My sister, Cheri, and I still remember a song (and sing it) that we learned from a park ranger/wildlife person while "camping" in California almost 15 years ago. It is the epitome of weird and random. Here goes:

"Bats eat bugs, they don't eat people. Bats eat bugs, they don't fly in your hair. Bats eat bugs and insects for dinner, that's why their flying up there."

7. I am married to former-almost-child-star! Clayton had a speaking part in Sandlot. His part got cut and they didn't tell him. Sad days. He was almost in a few other movies, but things didn't work out. But hey, he still gets small royalty checks from Sandlot to ease his pain.

And I tag:


Brenna

Lara

Misty

Emilie

Brooke B.

Brooke C.

Darci

All their blogs have links on my sidebar. Hopefully you have fun realizing how crazy and interesting we all are!

Thanks for tagging me, this is an interesting one :) I haven't posted mine yet because I'm trying to come up with some wierd and random things to share and I am also working on another tag, but watch for it soon!

WHAT?? Clayton almost had a speaking part in the Sandlot? That is one of my favorite movies ever. What was the scene? Is he in the background at all?

Kristi! I already left you one comment but here I go again hoping you will see this one! How the heck are you?! So are you in Utah still? I live in Phoenix now. Been here about a year and a half. I can't believe you have a daughter! She is very cute. How can I get your email address? I do have news but it's probably not quite what you're expecting.

Oh my gosh, I love the The Sandlot! Loved it.
