8 - Just for goldie
I was recently tagged by goldie to list 8 things about myself. I actually felt quite popular. I never get tagged for these things. However, since I'm almost certain that goldie is about the only non-family neighbor of mine that reads my blog, I'm going to let the domino-effect tagging die with me. Without further adieu...
-
I have never been so happy with myself as I was when I was pregnant. I managed to avoid nearly all the downsides of pregnancy - no ridiculous weight gain (a little less than 20 lbs.), no stretch marks (no, not one), and no morning sickness. I never felt guilty about eating whatever I wanted, and I think because of that, I had a much healthier mindset about food in general. Plus, if I do say so myself, I looked totally adorable.
- One of my myriad 'dream' jobs would be to be a thief. Not the break-out-your-windows-and-steal-your-TV-while-you're-on-vacation kind of thief. More the tech-savvy-I'm stealing-your-priceless-artwork -and-the-whole-operation-is-going-down-as-I-sit-here-with-you-drinking-champagne -at-your-black-tie-event kind of thief. 'Cause I'm classy.
- I've been away from Arizona for nearly six years, and it no longer feels like home. It makes me a little sad.
- I wish I was born a decade earlier so I could have enjoyed the 80's as a teenager. I would have had the hippest new wave hairdo you ever saw!
- After nearly two years, I think I'm finally OK with the fact that I don't have a job. Most of the time now, I don't even want one.
-
I desperately want to go to North Korea and see the Juche Tower for myself. I love Communist art. I wish I would have bought a display of North Korean money while I was in (South) Korea. They were fairly easy to find, but I snubbed them as tourist crap. Now who knows when or even if I'll get back to Korea? Damn my snobby ways!
- I somewhat recently decided to stop letting my fear (and loathing) of math prevent me from pursuing a degree in science. It feels pretty good to do something I want to do instead of something that seems OK, and is made slightly better by the fact that I won't have to do a lot of math. Bite me, math! I will conquer you!
- I often prefer the company of my cat to most people I know.
