I got tagged to do the “random facts meme” by Kim over at GirlRobot and ordinarily, I’d have some kind of comment for how much I dislike the term “meme” – almost as much as I dislike the term “blog” – but I’m feeling a little lazy because it’s 3:00am.
Here are the rules of this particular Meme:
1. Link to the person that tagged you and post the rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 random and or weird things about yourself.
3. Tag 7 random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs.
4. Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
Here goes…
- I used to be really, really, ridiculously athletic. I ran track and was a sprinter. I played softball for 8 years and led my league in stolen bases and was nominated to a number of championship teams – playing second base. I followed this up with horseback riding for the past 11 years, and showed at the collegiate level, where I made a few trips to higher level competitions and trained a few angry-assed ponies. Now I am entirely too lazy. Boo-urns.
- I am way WAY too maternal. If someone is drunk beyond belief (read: Miss Roommate) and is unable to stand or speak or not puke, I will drop whatever I’m doing and magically become sober, so as to help whoever needs it. The other night, Fancy stayed over and passed out on a chair – I didn’t want to wake him so I threw a blanket over him and he gave me this sleepy little smile and muttered something about how I “didn’t have to do that.” Boy doesn’t understand, I DO have to do that.
- I swear to God – my boobs are growing again. I was a B all through high school and into college. Then I got on birth control and bumped up to a C. Now I’m a D and I don’t think they’re done. I’m not a tall person, I’m going to get all top-heavy and fall over.
- I am entirely too knowledgeable in the realm of celebrity gossip – in college, I wrote a giant term paper about how normal people are obsessed with high-profile celebrities, based on a sports-psychology phenomenon called “BIRG”ing. Easiest paper I have ever written in my life.
- I did not lose my virginity until I was nearly 20. People who meet me seem to have a difficult time believing this. I’ve made up for lost time, kids – but I’m certainly not lying.
- I’ve noticed a trend with the boys I go for: they’re tall (5′10″ and up), obscenely good-looking, charismatic as all fuck, and gigantic assholes. The last bit is okay because I am also an asshole, and I eat nice boys for breakfast. If he can’t keep up, he probably won’t last long.
- I found both my jobs, my apartment, my roommate, and The Boy – all on Craigslist. Suck it, nonbelievers. If it isn’t on CL – I don’t need it.
As per the rules, I’m supposed to tag people and right now, I am entirely too lazy. Suck it.
EDIT: Alright, I’ve relented. Here’s some links to some random people. New reading material for all! Tiny American flags for some!
There’s A Mouse In My House, That Night, Miss Pants, The Diva Platform, RachelSkirts, Eye Heart Internet, Spes, Ultima Dea




Fun facts ! I’m thirty one and I think my boobs are growing again as well. Weird, eh?
And thank you for the tag… trouble is I already did this même ! (And I’ve been randomly tagged for ait at least seven times since, strangely enough.) Maybe next time… (:
Hmm. Crap. I did a quick skim at 3am when I decided to do all my tagging and maybe I have selective illiteracy? Hard to say…
Ah well, free links! More readers! Yay NaBloPoMo!
Excellent! I’ll totally use this as my post for tomorrow. (Perfect timing, too, since I’m busy unpacking from one vacation and packing for another. No time for proper blog entries this month!)
1 and 2.
I played softball for years and years. I was amazing, if I do say so myself, until I fucked up my shoulder and could hardly rotate it, let alone pitch.
And, I rarely get drunk drunk, so I am always the driver or the “mom”.
Thanks for the tag!
I have yet to find one blogger who likes the word “blog.”
Yeah, “blog” is a wretched word.
what makes you think you’re still growing?
Gligette – I don’t think my bras are shrinking…
