Oh my goodness…I have been tagged!

MrsTDJ decided to tag me and since I have enjoyed reading other folks tags, I guess it is only fair if my turn has come.

The rules are pretty simple:

 You must post 11 random things about yourself.

 Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post.

 Create 11 new questions for the people you tag to answer.

 Go to their blog and tell them that you’ve tagged them.

1. I used to read a minimum of 10 books a month. Really I did. Back then I also reviewed for an online group. Now, I may read 3 a month, if I am lucky.

2. When I was in the 3rd grade in Florida, we went on a fieldtrip that involved nature and animals and I got to touch a snake. I didn’t want to, but everyone else was touching it so how bad could it be? They aren’t slimy and no I have no wish to repeat this little test.

3. I wanted to be a lawyer because of Perry Mason. Then I actually went to law school and law is so not Perry Mason like. I prefer to research and write then actually face-to-face argue. Did it in law school and here we are.

4. I dislike orange juice.

5. I want to be a wedding planner, although I have no desire to get married. I like the organization part of the planning. It just seems like fun.

6. I haven’t been in any weddings in years. I refuse to be in any because one of my friends was going to get married and I paid $65 for fabric for my bridesmaid dress. She didn’t get married and still isn’t married and I didn’t get my money back. As a Virgo, this means I will not pay to be in anyone’s wedding. No, really. She messed it up for everyone who may want me in their wedding.

7. I don’t loan money. I stopped doing that when a family member “borrowed” money for one thing but spent it on another. So I do not loan anyone money. If I have it to give, I will. But don’t ask me to borrow money the answer will always be No. Emphatically.

8. I used to read my mother’s super Harlequins when I was 13 &14 years old. She didn’t like it, put I would sneak them out of her room and put them back when I finished them.

9. I possess an awful case of road rage. I am a beast in my car with my anger when folks are driving too fast, too slow or just plain in my way.

10. I do not eat cornbread, dressing, collard greens and macaroni and cheese. However, I will eat chitterlings and I love liver and onions. What?

11. My name and my book club’s name have appeared in several books in the acknowledgment section. Pretty cool.

Now, a few questions MrsTDJ liked answered:

1. If you could only list to one musical artist for the rest of your life, who would you choose? Why I got to choose one? Janet Jackson, Michael Jackson, Al Green, Marvin Gaye, Musiq, Earth, Wind & Fire and Prince. No really I can’t just choose one.

2. Which do you prefer: red or white wine? What’s your favorite wine? Red wine. Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Burgundy I like full-bodied wines.

3. Describe something relate to eating/food that you do that others might find strange. If I have bread and meat on my plate I will make a sandwich out of the two while I am eating. I do it unconsciously. A family member had to point it out to me years ago.

4. On average, how many texts do you send and receive in a day? Hundred? Heck, I do not know.

5. Name someone who passed away in the last ten years that you would have liked to have met. What would you have discussed? Michael Jackson and I would try to delve into his mind to understand him thoroughly. I would want to know what changed his life and what would he have done differently and ask if he really was happy.

I would tag some folks, but I never do. However, if you are interested in doing this let me know in the comments and if you do here are a few questions for you to answer.

1. How do you feel about Facebook? Is it a Godsend or the Devil?

2. If you could change anything about your life, what would it be?

3. Is there anything you would like to try, but haven’t gotten the nerve up to do yet?

4. What is the best thing you have ever eaten?

5. What is your favorite vacation spot and why?

6. If you have siblings, how would you describe them in one word.

7. What is your dream job?

8. Who is your favorite musical artist?

9. What are you favorite television shows?

10. Do have an addiction? If so, what is it?

11. Do you remember your very first kiss? Describe.
