Tag, Isn't This What Blogs Are For?

My cousin Jessica (J., that's right friends I have TWO cousins named Jessica and I love them both- of course I would never tell anyone which is my favorite) tagged me. Frankly- she is lucky that I even looked at her blog because lately she has been kind of a slacker when it comes to posting, but who am I to judge. Her blog is one of my favorites to read because of her exceptional creativity. Nothing is worse than tagging someone and them not responding- it means they don't read your very well thought out and time consuming posts, how dare you?!

How To Play This Game of Tag: 1. Post these rules on your blog. 2. List: 3 joys, 3 fears, 3 goals, 3 current obsessions/collections, 3 random surprising facts about yourself. 3. Tag 5 people at the end of your post by leaving their names.

I will try not to be too predictable:

Joys:
1. Reading- I couldn't live without it, however lately I have been barely getting by. This has always been a way for me to "escape" to far off places and live in different shoes.
2. My Family- I have to agree with Jessica, there are a lot of people (particularly on one side) to look up to and admire. I always have a good time when we get together. This also includes the family that lives at my house, they are the reason I wake up in the morning- literally, McKenzie is an alarm clock of her own.
3. Games/Movies- I love playing games! I'm not competitive at all- it's true I really could care less if I win or lose. I would love a big family just so that I could play games with people, finally! Surprisingly being an only child doesn't offer a lot of choices as far as partners go. Movies are my favorite pastime besides reading for the same reasons.

Fears:
1. Hair- Mostly I am terrified of being hairy. It is an unfortunate trait that runs high in my genes. Thick, dark, grow like a weed in places you wish it didn't... hair. The razor is my friend.
2. Disability- I like walking, talking, and using my mind. I would be disappointed if I wasn't able to do any one of those things. To be clear: I'm not afraid of people with disabilities.
3. Spiders/E.T.

Goals:
1. Raising my children to be productive members of society.
2. Finishing college- maybe even a master's degree? Who knows.
3. The top 100 novels. Go Denise & Lindsey!!

Obsessions/Collections:
1. The Office.
2. Blogging.
3. McKenzie.

Random Facts:
1. I have two tattoos (Heath was supposed to buy me a third, but he hasn't).
2. The three movies that had an impact on my life are: Schindler's List, Glory, & I Am Legend.
3. I talk to myself a lot.

I hope you learned something about me today, otherwise you just wasted like ten minutes that you will NEVER get back, ever. Ever. After two years of blogging all of my personal thoughts and commenting on everything, none of these things should be surprising. Seriously though- I want to see the Secret Life of Bees and anyone interested should contact me. Shocker Alert, the five people I tag are: Amy Nicoll, Becky, Nicole Rees, Denise, & Annie Ojeda.
I just realized something- I hope Jessica doesn't have a friend named Lindsey Harvey otherwise I smeared egg on my face. Honey- eat oreo cookies for breakfast, lunch, and dinner while metabolism is still on your good side. Good luck at the Girl Scout thing!!

Decorating early for Halloween, are we? I think you should do my blog. I've become LAZY with cutest blog on the block background. And, I promise I will do a post. Promise. AND, you are totally predictable :o). Except for the ET thing.

I forget that you didn't know me around this time last year, because it seems like we've known each other for a hundred years. I am sort of a freak about Halloween, believe me when I say it has been toned-down A LOT!! Consider yourself lucky that you didn't know that person. :)

I love your blog background, you get so creative with the holidays. It's very cute:) P.S. How are you feeling these days?

So where are your tattoos and what are they of? Do you ever watch Miami Ink? I don't even have a tattoo but I'm kind of obsessed with the show, anyhoo...I did learn lots more about you. Thanks for sharing. Oh and I love the Halloween background.

Reeses Pieces said...

OH my gosh, you're prego. I just noticed on your sidebar. Congrats! Hope you're feeling well.

Lindsey,

Haha, Jessica and I both tagged you months ago. You'll have to go back and look at my blog, old posts now. You are so cute and funny, I am lucky you are my niece.

Thanks for sharing. I am glad to see you still are doing well and that you heard baby's heart beat, we are so excited for you all. Keep us posted on any news. I'll see you Sunday.

Love ya lots!

Clearly I don't take my own scandalous advice. I apologize profusely to my dear Aunt and friend for not posting after she tagged me, I have no excuse except for the fact that more and more brain cells die every day.
