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. (how in the world did they com up with the number 16????)
1. I really love chocolate way too much.
2. My Dad was an award-winning graphic designer. My brother is too. My grandfather was a chef for the Vanderbilt family, & my great grandfather made carriages in Paris. I come from a family of artisans. ^_^
3. I love dogs and can name any dog breed on sight in seconds (even super rare ones like Neopolitan Mastiffs or Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers, and I know the difference between a Norfolk Terrier and a Norwich Terrier)
4. I'm a nerd; I have a special Roger Tory Peterson bird guide book that I take everywhere with me. When I spot a bird (it HAS to be in its natural habitat in the wild! zoo birds don't count) I mark it in the book.
5. I love playing Scrabble. I beg my husband to play Scrabble with me all. The. Time. My best score was 474
6. I used to compete in barrel riding competitions. I also rode a cutting horse when I was a teenager...it was fun.
7. I hate movies that make me cry because I despise being emotionally manipulated. "The Notebook" can go suck an egg. :-(
8. I love quirky Canadian music (like the Bare Naked Ladies and Moxy Fruvous)
9. I love a LOT of music actually...especially jazz fusion & new age. Pat Metheny is my alltime favorite followed by Andreas Vollenweider. I HAVE to listen to music when I make my masks...it's part of my process.
10. My sister knows how much I love all kinds of music; for a wedding present she sent me & Greg to see Tool.
11. Did I mention I'm a nerd? I met my husband online...in a Mystery Science Theater 3000 fan forum. Yes really. Speaking of MST3K I have over 200 episides on VHS.
12. I didn't learn how to drive a car until I was 21. That's how old I was when I got my license too.
13. My favorite movie of all time, ever; "Bladerunner". Seriously. I can watch it over & over & over...
14. I got my first job when I was 13 (in a pet shop) and haven't stopped working since. Worked all through college at a sub shop and started my own business when I was 25, and have been self-employed ever since. Even before I started working at the pet shop, I used to paint band logos on kids jeans at school for $5. Van Halen, Rush, ACDC...stuff like that. Always been a worker bee...
15. My first concert; Frank Zappa. I was 13.
16. I am awfully short. 5 foot one inch! Shorty McShortness.
Ok, those are sufficiently weird I guess. I feel bad tagging people, especially since Suze and I share so many people on our f-lists. I'll just say that if you WANT to do this meme, I would be pleased to read your 16 things and comment on them, kindly. ^_^
