I know this is a cop out for a real post, but a lot of people have been tagging me for these, so here goes:
What were you doing 10 years ago?
I was just finishing with my eighth grade year, mourning my rejection from the cheerleading squad, and making the most of a summer at home on the lake with friends. I miss those days when days of doing nothing felt so long! Much to my mum’s consternation, I was really into skateboarding and surfing culture (in Michigan, I know, but still!) and spent a lot of spare time learning to skateboard (I am really, really bad!). Thankfully I moved on unscathed by crazy piercings, blue hair, or tattoos. There are still pictures to haunt me though (shudder!)

Call my lousy landlord to inform them I will be moving out in August- so there!

Move my car to the “Thursday” side of the street to avoid nasty street cleaning ticket (It is on the “Friday” side of the street today, I cut someone off to get there)

5 Things You Would Do if You Were a Billionaire

6 Quirky Things about Myself
I actually really like my freckles and would be really sad if they ever went away or I had to cover them up
I miss studying and taking tests
I don’t have cable, and rarely watch television. Books are so much better
Most of the time, I enjoy the condiments and seasonings more than the food itself (excepting fruit)
Even though I don’t consider myself superstitious, I always avoid walking under ladders, contact with black cats, stepping on the sidewalk cracks, etc. You never know!
I really do believe in Karma. What goes around does really come around. My friend Mary has this theory that all people and events in life come full circle. I am a faithful believer!
I got tagged to do all of these about a million years ago by numerous friends. I am now tagging anyone who has procrastinated as much as I have. I don’t think there are many of you, but you never know. . . . .
Longer, more detailed post to follow.

Thank you for the sweet blgo comment, I am so glad to have found you too! I just read your quiz and we must be the same age, fun fun! I am with you on updating, I try to be a good blogger for all my readers, but it gets so tough sometimes!
I so agree with the quitting your job if you won lotto. I would be out of my job like a shot.
Also, I thought it was fun that you miss taking assessments. So do I. I think was a lot better at the doing assessments part, than putting it into practice at work.
