Tagged

I've been tagged by Jessica.

The Rules: Link to the person that tagged you and post the rules on your blog. Share 5 random and/or weird facts about yourself on your blog. or Share the 5 top places on your “want to see or want to see again” list. or Share 5 things you never pictured being in your future when your were 25 years old. Tag a minimum of 5, maximum of 10 random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs. Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog. The tagees have a choice of which they want to do.

Five random facts about me:

1. I buy birthday cake when it's nobody's birthday. I just like birthday cake.

2. One of my pet peeves is the mispronunciation of words, i.e. similar (not sim-u-lar) and dangling prepositions (where's it at?). I have to bite my tongue to keep from correcting others' grammar and pronunciation.

3. I can't drive or walk past a Starbuck's without stopping for a Tall Skinny Decaf Latte.

4. I LOVE games. Board games, card games, crossword puzzles, Sudoku, charades, Game Shows, you name it--I'm in.

5. I cry every week during the weigh-in on The Biggest Loser.

I think all my other blogging friends have already been tagged.

Thanks for playing along! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that cries about odd things.

My Friend Lita,

I'm so glad to learn you have peeves. That word just never occurred as a connection to one I view as ideal. Way to go!

BTW....I don't think you meant "similiar" did you? Typo? Doesn't that frost your cake?

I like it that you cry as that would be me, too. Charles Engles only thought he was sensitive!

I love you today!

Of course! I meant SIMILAR. Hope your pet peeve is not typos! I'll edit my post right away.

Jessica, I also count my steps! Is that weird or what? Going up the stairs, walking to the laundry room, trekking to the mailbox, always counting my steps. Should we go to group counseling?

Terry, unlike some, I WANT to be corrected when I mispronounce, misuse or misspell a word. Thanks, friend.

Lita, memories are such special gifts! I'm glad you enjoyed my post. Hope you weren't too distracted by my poor grammar and spelling!

What is your favorite birthday cake?

Unknown said...

White cake with white butter cream frosting.

You've inspired me to write about my memories, high points and places I've been. Thanks for the inspiration.

Internet blogging is an exception to my pet peeve about grammar. Why is it you can type it and re-read it and still not catch the typos????
