I was tagged (twice!) to do the 8 random things about me meme (first by Karen, over a month ago, um, oops… then today by Susan) so here ya go!
1. I’m a terrible multitasker. I can’t listen to music while I work because I sing along and I can’t sing and think at the same time.
2. Except for a few good friends, I always got along better with the boys than the girls as a kid, and I always knew I’d never have a daughter.
3. I had a poem published in a short-lived internet magazine in 1997.
4. I asked my husband-to-be out for our first date. We were 16 & he was my first and last boyfriend.
5. I was once embroiled in an internet war which revolved around the ethics of procuring reservations for breakfast at Cinderella’s castle in Disney World. Seriously. Disney fans can be pretty rough.
6. I’m on a bowling team, mostly for the gossip and the cocktails.
7. I’ve been treasurer for 2 volunteer organizations even though I hate math. (Yay for calculators and Quicken!)
8. I want to retire to the shore. Or NYC. Or New Mexico. One of those. Maybe.
I’m gonna tag everyone who reads this who hasn’t been tagged yet (because most of you have been!)

yay! So much fun to learn more about you.
I so get the “getting along better with the boys than the girls” thing. When I was younger, and for really, a big chunk of my life I had more “guy” friends then girlfriends. Well, until the “guy” friends fell in love with me and ruined everything. Truly, there’s nothing better than a good girlfriend …but all friends are a blessing.
So cool about you and your husband. And you’re both so cute, too! (I remember the 80’s pictures!)
I giggled at your internet war experience. I can remember once being sent memos about posting large pop ups in an IRC chat room. The person sending the memo felt as if it was a life and death matter…
:o)
Thanks for sharing more about you
