Tag: Stupid ThingsWhiteEyebrows @ 11:31 am

I swore I would never do these little things where people “tag” you on their blog.  But when Annike tagged me, I figured, what the heck.  I can cave to peer pressure just as good as the other guy…

So here it is… the lame getting to know random things about a person in short sentences…

3 Joys

  1. Really good food with really great company.
  2. Solving a problem I’ve been working on in my head for a long time.
  3. Beautiful choral music.

3 Fears

  1. I’ll grow up and become un-fun.
  2. I’ll have to take a polygraph one day, and I’ll have become such a relativist that every answer I give will register as a lie because I will automatically doubt the truth of everything that I might say.
  3. Alien abduction and probing

3 Goals

  1. Take over the world.
  2. Write something a million people will want to read.
  3. Get up every morning and go to bed every night.

3 Current Obsessions/Collections

  2. Blog Ideas
  3. Dryer lint

3 Surprising Facts About Myself

  1. I have never been snow skiing.
  2. I have always involuntarily squinted my left eye when taking photos… even as a small child.
