Tag?!?
Okay, it appears there is a blog-tag game going on and I've been called "it." Now I'm supposed to tell you six *interesting* things about myself. This could be a challenge....
1) I couldn't care less for fashion or entertainment news. Celebrity performers (film or music) are still just jesters - they are there to entertain / perform for us, period. We should not be "entertained" by their private life antics or lack of them, or even, God forbid, what they were wearing last week at the grocers.
2) I abhor religion. I do have faith, but faith and religion are as different as table salt and arsenic. I could go into detail here, but I think it's more appropriate for a whole other blog.
3) I don't like candy much, which is weird because I make tons of it during the holidays - even selling some. I also don't like Hostess products (twinkies, cupcakes, etc).
4) I'm probably the only poor woman under 40 who knows how to play Bridge. However, I've never even seen Pinochle played.
5) I went to Europe for 2 1/2 weeks with my Gram when I was 15. My favorite city was Vienna.
6) I didn't finish college for two reasons; a) I wanted to major in everything - poli sci, law, medicine, anthropology, physics, art (all kinds), business, education, archaeology, psychology, writing, sociology, basically everything except math. b) I realized that, no matter what I got a degree in, it would be wasted. When I had kids (and that was always in my plans), I was going to be a home mom, so why waste the money (which I didn't have anyway) on a degree I'll never use? If I still want a degree in a few years, I can go back to school and get one then. Of course, I'd have to revisit that "what's your major" issue....
