on facebook, there was a note circulating to list 25 or 30 things about yourself. i kept avoiding it, because i wasn't sure if it would be too a.) hard, or b.) time consuming, to complete this task. then i saw a friend list this same thing on her blog. i liked the idea. so here is the game. leave a comment on my page with how many of these things you knew about me already, and if any were noteworthy surprising to you. if you are reading this and you have a blog, post 30 things about yourself on your blog. if you don't want to play my game, that's fine too :)
so, here goes nothing...random things about me.
1. i think i am funny and i make myself laugh

#14 you need your head examined...or I do for having to have it on.

8 - maybe i can convert you sometime. wine tasting cured me of my white wine rut.
14 - really? what do you do...sing to yourself? or talk to yourself? or talk to the people you drive by on the street? i'm really confused about this one and agree - maybe you need to have your head examined :)
