My Turn..........
Ok so I don't know 10 people that blog and the ones I do know have been tagged. I know that takes the fun out of it but I will post 10 things about me. Thank you to, Marianne and Tracy for making me step outside of my box today.
1) I love to write poetry. I had a poem published when I was 14 or 15 but haven't seriously wrote anything for a long time.
2) Music has a lot of meaning to me. I could think of a song for almost any moment.
3) I never have liked to read very much. Lately, I can't put books down.
4) I really like coffee. Mostly iced. I had an espresso in Sicily that was so good! (Thanks for that one Bob!) My stomach doesn't always agree though.
5) My favorite time of year is definately summer, no coat, just slide my flip flops on and I am out the door. Although fall, is just so beautiful, I am not sold on the whole wearing socks and a coat thing.
6) I take my job way too seriously. Therefore often times my mind is preoccupied with work.
7) On that thought, I take everything way too seriously, I think everything out. Sometimes I think about conversations I have had with people over and over just analyzing myself. That sounds kind of weird I know.
8) My all time favorite movie is My Best Friends Wedding.
9) My favorite days are the ones filled with nothing. Just hanging out at home enjoying my family.
10) I have always wanted to be a cosmetologist. I could still be, one of these days I'll just have to do it.
It took me a few days to come up with these things. Nothing too interesting, just me.

I guess that I got tagged
So my sister decided that I am playing this game where I have to say like 10 facts about me that other people do not know, or something of that nature, then send it to 10 people to do the same. As I do not have 10 friends with blogs in fact she named all the peoples blogs that I looked at in her list I will try and at least come up with the 10 things so that I do not get 'a harpoon in my chest'.
Top ten things that people might not know, from the home office of Sioux City, Iowa.
1. Fall is my favorite season, as we are approaching the time of year with snowmen and mistletoe, turkeys and leaves falling are the predecessor to that joy of Christmas therefore as the grass browns and the leaves start to blow I cannot help but be memorized by not only the beauty of the changing season but also I enjoy being able to again wear layers.
2. I love Rachael Ray, I know that might seem manly if I was saying just saying that Rachel Ray was sexy but I am saying that I love Rachael Ray's magazine, cookbooks, and TV shows. This makes it not near as masculine as I can make it sound.
3. I want to be in a band. Like a heavy-ish, ska-ish, punk-ish I really do not care how I would fit into this band but I also know that I want to learn how to play the guitar, I am not the best singer, and drums really do not interest me all that much, so I am thinking guitar is it. I played Guitar Hero and was not all that bad but I am thinking that the actual thing is a little more difficult.
4. I am, well we are a 'Van Family' now. We took the plunge and decided that that family is not getting any smaller and 2 row seating was just not cutting it anymore so last week we went and got a Honda Van.
6. I like people as individuals but not these same people in society. It is really hard to explain There was a line in Men In Black and I do not have it memorized but it is something like, "A person is smart but people are stupid, panicky, and neurotic. From a psychological aspect I enjoy people but from a sociological aspect people annoy me.
7. I love court television shows. I find my self watching as many as I can each day, and I am not sure why? There are about 10 different shows on each day each with different judges that act different to the people but really there are only also about 15 reasons that people sue each other and about 5-7 of these reasons show up all the time (i.e. ex boyfriend/girlfriend, landlord vs. tenant, contractor vs. customer) so I cannot figure out if it is pretty much the same show over and over why do I have to watch them all the time.
8. I do not have to talk, I would be perfectly fine just not saying anything, but my ability to do this makes it difficult for me to meet new people. When I am around people that I am just meeting I am not sure what to say to them, what questions to ask or what comments to make. When I am around people that I do know then I just feel okay not talking and those people usually know that I am okay with that.
9. I miss twizzlers. Yes the candy. It is not that they are not available anymore just that they are not available for me. I had to totally rule them out when I started my diet I used to eat A LOT of them before I started my diet and I bet that I could have lost weight by only ruling out this item.
10. I skipped number 5 on purpose. I only had 8 things then I ran out of creativity. I guess that is another interesting observation of mine I have little creativity, but I realised the way that the school system works is that they spend the first part of your education teaching you creativity growing your mind to many possibilities of correct answers or behaviors (you can color that tree any color that you want), and the last half teaching you that there is only one right answer to everything which takes away from you ability to think creatively (What color is the tree and how did photosynthesis play a part in this?) I am not knocking education just that I think that becasue I think more logical or mathmatical there is only one right answer to things.
There you are 9 1/2 things I guess about me. I know that Christine said that she was going to work on this sometime as well.
