8 Random Facts About Me

Tagged by Suture for a Living means I now must list 8 facts about me and tag 8 others to do the same. I am a listener, not a self-discloser, by nature, so this is a rough one. Here goes:

1. I love shopping in thrift stores.
2. I was a hippy in the early '70s.
3. I have a mild case of disposaphobia, and in particular I am a victim of unread magazines.
4. I am teaching myself Spanish just to see if I can do it by reading my son's old textbooks and watching Spanish language TV. I will never understand why they talk so fast that I can never understand them.
5. I often cry over the morning paper, including the comics Funky Winkerbean and For Better or Worse. What sort of comics make you cry over them?
6. My favorite guilty pleasure is Mexican pizza from Taco Bell.
7. I used to smoke cigarettes.
8. Drinking alcohol makes me so tired that I am always sorry when I do.

It's hard for me to spout random facts about myself on the Internet, so I'm going to pass on tagging others even if it means I break the chain and will have seven years of bad luck.
